Print View

Every season, trend reports parrot “Mixed prints are in!", but the truth is mixed prints never go out of style. In fact, the only thing new about mixed prints is purely a matter of interpretation: tropical prints, floral prints, digital prints, retro prints... etc. Thanks to fashion giants such as Marni, Cacharel, and Etro, that build a collection based on their signature style... aka.. Mixed prints. We get to see different variations every season. And I personally always look forward to what Marni has in offer for us each season. 

Now speaking of Marni, we live in a country where some people can afford to buy several pieces from the brand in one go without hesitation. However, not everyone who can afford it can master the true look of Marni. Actually I hear a lot of people say "I don't know how to shop at Marni". The easiest way to shop Marni would be to start with the accessories. They go with most items in your wardrobe and definitely add that quirky cool factor to your look. From their cruise collection, on display now at the brand's boutique in 360 Mall, I spotted a fun casual chic collection of bags, iPad cases, and cotton scarves. And their quite reasonably priced for a designer brand, the scarf start at KD 60+.

Now these are really cool iPad cases! Which can also work as a make-up bag?
A shopper with a matching scarf? Love this combo!
And if all fails (or breaks your budget!), head to River Island and grab these cute floral printed flats...

I love Marni accessories, they're the best and even years later when you wear them they still look special. But with the clothes, it's not as consistent. Sometimes they turn out beautiful but sometimes the tailoring feels off, like your body looks like it's shaped weird, know what I mean? I can't decide if it's better for super heavy girls or for super skinny tall girls. Probably for both those groups it's great but for medium height medium weight, it's a bit more difficult to find something flattering.

I think most of Marni's designs are best suited for someone who's tall, whether fat or skinny. A lot of times when I try Marni's clothes, I really look like I put on extra weight.

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.

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?
