Winter Wonderland

The bi-annual designer-bargain-hunting insanity otherwise known Al Othman's winter sale has officially started two days ago.  All Fall 2010 merchandise from the biggest brands in the fashion world is up to 30% Off. You don't want to miss out on fabulous pieces from Erdem, Louboutin, DVF (studded clutch featured here is by DVF), Oscar de la Renta, The Row, Alexander Wang... and more.  Here are some of my favorite things...

I'm not sure if these studded knee-high boots were on sale or not, but they were the last piece so I had to try them on.  The words "Last Piece" do wonders in the shopping world.  And by the way, they were 2 sizes smaller than my actual "Louboutin" size! And no I didn't buy them...

Very bold and beautiful RM by Roland Mouret  black long sleeves dress decorated with blue fan-like sequins. Was KD 2,298. Now? KD 1,608.

Black chiffon dress with black feather details by Hakaan. Was KD 769. Now KD 538

Carven retro inspired printed shirt dress. Was KD 269. Now KD 188

|Edun ruffle collar parka (ideal for our weather). Was KD 185. Now KD 129.5

Hey.Whale be in Kuwait this week and it's the first time I've visited in the winter. What is okay to wear in this weather now? Are boots too much? Like knee length ugg boots with tights for example? I don't want to be wearing boots and have people stare at me like I'm crazy or something! Please let me know.

It's a bit chilly during the day and it gets colder by night so it's perfectly fine to wear your boots... you'll find most girls in mall are wearing their UGGs and other leather boots :)

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
