Dear Confashion: Mina Ro Mina

I have been introduced to a jewelry brand called Mina Ro Mina’s by Erika Ponce. While skimming through the brand's lookbook, I have noticed how Its pieces were distinguished by ornate and modern designs. The brand has just unvelied its second collection titled Lilies and Guitars,  greatly influenced by the impressionist paintings of Claude Monet and the cubist creations of Pablo Picasso. from this collection I fell in love with its curved earrings shown in the first photo and the ornamented hair combs. 

Most recently, one of Ponce's pieces was chosen by Swarovski to be shown in their “Crystal Loves Leather” showcase gallery in New York in 2009. And this year Mina Ro Mina has been featured in L’Officiel, International Vogue, Teen Vogue and People Style Watch. Also look out for the Lilies & Guitars collection in the November issue of Vogue USA. The brand will be stocked soon in the Middle East so stay tuned for updates on that.

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 .
