When i went there the woman at the door said that you could only enter if you had an invitation and that it was for the italian ambassadors. It's only open to the public tomorrow (thursday)...waste of time -.-

I'm sorry that you had to go through this but this is weird because I did check with the Gucci rep if I could announce the event on my blog to encourage people to attend the event and she immediately agreed! When I asked to PR lady if I could get in inside the store, she didn't mind at all and she only wrote down my name.

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.
