Always MUSE-ing

Aaaah... I love it when Al Othman's new season collections start rolling in, and the store gets a face lift with it's creative installation, and most of all, when the door bell rings, and the post man delivers my MUSE! Let's start with the in-store installation, I loved it more than last season's! It had all the right ingredients of an attention grabbing in-store display.  A little bit of fashion, a little bit of art, a little bit of design, and a whole lot of creativity. The concept behind it is to showcase different fashion designer studios and workshops. I personally felt like being at the set of Project Runway. Well done Project Al Othman! Can't wait to see next season's installation. 


Loved these sketches... I wish Al Othman made tissue paper out of them to wrap our purchases with.

And did you get your copy of MUSE? While skimming through the lookbook, I was excited to see some of my favorite designers will be stocked soon at Al Othman this season. such as Preen and Jonathan Saunders.  Also it seems that they will be launching an iPad app sometime soon this month and a Bridal Boutique at Mariam Complex. That should be something exciting to look forward to as well. Now, If you'll excuse me, gotta study my MUSE and take my picks for the new season.

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.

Did you know that Marie Claire, an international women's magazine, has been launched in Kuwait and their second issue is already in newsstands?

Marie Clair - Kuwait is in Arabic of course. The magazine offers an editorial mix of journalism with glamour, fashion and beauty coverage, and feature stories of lifestyle and serious women related issues. All by an Arabic editorial team.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
