Vintage Queen


While browsing the pages of Panacheous, Kuwait based online and offline lifestyle boutique, I came across a page dedicated to vintage clothes and accessories. Two pieces caught my attention a vintage 1970s shimmering taupe brown full dress features a sheer gathered mock collar and ascot bow and a vintage 1970s henry-lee designer red hot dress. They looked like the dresses worn by LV or Prada models on Fall 2010 runway. Very Jackie O! How to wear them without looking like you're going to a costume party? Pair them with modern and edgy accessories like sleek cuffs or statement necklaces by Tom Binns or Delfina Delettrez and a pair of modern kitten heels like Valentino's studded pair pr Prada's bow pair and you're good to go.

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.

Amazing Alia

Several months ago I posted about Alia Designs , a Kuwaiti talented designer of traditional clothes and dresses. Back then, I liked one of the items featured on her website. This time I'm going ga-ga over her latest Ramadan collection of Kaftans and darraa'at! Especially the one shown here on the first picture. Looks very young, comfortable, and oh-so-perfect for after futoor! For inquiries please visit the website or call (+965) 642-7400.
