And Some Arm Candy...

I love some good arm candy! And while shopping around Al Thurraya Complex the other day, I came across some quite a variety of colorful/minimal/neon/embellished/exotic handbags to add to your Summer wardrobe. Allow me to share with you some of my finds starting with my favorite find, the Jil Sander oversized sleek clutch. Its shade of neon lime green has immediately caught my fashion radars the moment I stepped inside Al Ostura Boutique. Very minimal in design, which I like, and the leather used is just gorgeous. Scroll down for more, but better be prepared as your the neon shade of one of the featured bags might hurt your eyes...

So, what's your it-bag of the season?

In love with this Jil Sander envelop clutch... a design very popular on the runway shows of A/W 2012

Yups that's the too-bright-to-look-at Balenciaga bag i was referring to earlier... Neon pink for the brave

And we tone it down a bit with these classy and chic Ornate embellished Chloe's Sally bags and another one in exotic leather...

Love his work too.. I wonder what next season is gonna happen since Raf Simons, Jil Sander's designer, will not longer be there.

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?
