Liberty Love

I can't resist Liberty fabrics and I was thrilled to find out that Haifa Boutique has received a new selection of them. I went to Haifa's branch in Shuwaikh and marveled at the beauty of the fabrics. There is only oooone tiiiiny problem. I don't know what to do with the fabrics and I don't have the talent or the skill to sketch and design. Up until yesterday, I have shown great restraint in not falling into the trap of designing my own dress/kaftan/whatever, because I KNOW I won't be wearing that piece. Right now while I'm writing this post and stare at the cuteness of the fabric featured in the first photo, I think I'll be breaking  my so-called-rule very soon.

Speaking of Haifa boutique, they have also been recently featured in Harper's Bazaar Arabia's April edition again (click on the image above to view the circled item).  The feature included a photo from their latest photoshoot for their lookbook.  Liberty of London has also requested a copy of their lookbook! Isn't that cool?!

I have the exact same problem. I marvel at the beauty of their fabrics yet i don't know what to do with them if i bought them.

Maybe a shawl? Or customize an old boring Tshirt?

Thank you Confashion!

As usual, your post on us was just so sweet. Liberty fabrics are so easy to obsess over, no? Can you imagine having to choose which ones to stock when we go on buying trips? It's like choosing a favorite child!

Much love xx

I think some of these fabrics would look really cool on tent furniture or even on the walls. Not tent, out to hunt migrant birds using illegal sonic devices tent but the built tents that people have adapted as makeshift diwaniyas.

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.
