Exclusive: Sneak Peek of Alexander McQueen Boutique Opening Tonight

So if you've been following me on twitter, instgram, or tumblr, you'd probably know by now that I have been invited to an exclusive sneak peek of Alexander McQueen boutique, set to be open tonight at 6PM at Al Thurraya Complex in Salmiya.

As soon as I stepped inside the store, I instantly recognized Mcqueen's signature white covered interior you get to see when visiting the brand's boutique in any part of the world. Sleek and swank! I got the glow just from walking into this space!  The first thing that struck my mind was how amazing it is that Alexander McQueen was and still is an inspirational figure. This is a man that knows how to make the garment fit impeccably. He designed accessories that stood the test of time. He created masterpieces on the runway shows. And he made us lust for skulls season after season. He IS fashion.

The boutique had a selection of clothes, shoes, and accessories that would make any die-hard McQueen fan floating high up on cloud number nine. Oh and that knuckleduster clutch!! love love love! Scroll down for some of my favorite pieces in store.  

Surrounded by skulls... what's not to love!
Obsessed with these pretty pink pleats...
The skull-handled umbrella is certainly breathtaking! 

A business card or a credit card mini wallet makes a perfect gift for a McQueen fan
Take your pick from the iconic skull printed silk chiffon scarves
Just in time for Valentines and Beyond? I LOVED this red hot dress strategically hung in between black and white clothes.
Check out the lovely stitching detail on these new McQueen bags


A big thank you goes to Alexander Mcqueen team for this amazing and exclusive opportunity, especially to Carol who took the time to show me around and patiently answered all of my questions with a warm welcoming smile.

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.
