Manolo's Mary Janes

I was passing by the window display of TOUS boutique in the Avenues phase II when suddenly I got transfixed by two of the strongest words in Carrie Bradshaw's dictionary: MANOLO BLAHNIK! Whaaat?! I didn't know there was a collaboration between Manolo and TOUS!?! So I went in to check out the limited edition collection.  I don't know why I expected a big selection of items, I was surprised to see three pendants only and they're different in sizes. I was like "That's it?!" And the sales lady nodded. The pendants came in silver, gold plated, and real yellow gold and had the shape of Manolo's iconic Mary Janes. I liked the one with the smallest charm (Around KD 88). The sales lady later informed me that they also had one charm which comes with one diamond (You could barely see the diamond) and that it costs around KD 500+.  I still preferred the smallest charm. A cool gift to the shoeaholics in your life.

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.

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .
