Into the Bloom

Ahhh.. love is in the air. Pre-fall and Fall collections were showered with floral prints. I noticed most designers adorned their dresses with bouquets of crimson blooms and feminine floral prints. And I just spotted this oh-so-pretty very Mad-Men-ish Max Mara mustard floral print dress at the brand's boutique in Salhiya (they have just received their pre-fall collection). And I found the fit to be so flattering as it's slightly fitted from the top and from the waist down you get this beautiful not-too-overwhelming kind of volume. Juuuust-right. Loved it! Price tag? KD 327.

Hop on to this florals trends by pairing your pieces with chunky knits or sheepskin gilets for the full effect. Or you can make it simple and pair them with statement accessories only. To cut down on the sweetness factor, roughen up the look with a pair of booties or bulky cuffs.


Another floral dress? Ruby red and grey dress with floral print by Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti. Price tag? KD 233 .

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 .
