Bag Lady

With all the temptations surrounding us while shopping, how can I possibly settle for one or two or even three bags per season. How many bags do you buy per season? And how many do you actually need?! Tough question that can only be answered and controlled by sticking to a budget (by force not choice in my case!!). And this can be quite difficult to commit to especially with all the variety of bags available in Dubai.. Here are some of the bags I loved while shopping around starting with this hot red shoulder bag courtesy of ChloƩ.

Diane von Furstenberg leopard-print snakeskin clutch
Loved the color combo of this YSL shopping bag
I don't ever recall being in a designer boutique and lusting after at least 6 bags of its collection at the same time! That was the kind of effect CĆ©line had on me when I was shopping around the boutique. Very budget-unfriendly! 

A cute mini cross bag in bright orange colored leather from See by ChloƩ
Balenciaga's latest design of the classic shopping bag

I'm not sure if I like these Gucci totes... but I loved their color!

1001NIGHTS: I'm loving the coral/orangish color for bags just because it's so stunning when contrasted against white and we end up wearing a lot of white/beige in the summer. SO two bags that I INSIST you include in your list :p One is YSL and the other is Gucci. (I lost faith in Gucci for a while but this is a really good one.) Check them out:

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.

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
