In My Closet: Glasses

How many pairs of eye/sunglasses do you own? And how many is too many? I was doing a bit of spring cleaning when I noticed something that I didn't take note of before. I saw a lot of sunglasses boxes neatly stacked in my drawer. Why was I under the impression that I had 3-4 pairs maximum! So I picked some of my favorites to share them with you... hmm.. looking through my purchased glasses, I came to realize that I always tend to settle for eccentric pieces... preferably with a cat-eye frame.

From left, round-shape sunglasses from TopShop, Prada's Baroque sunglasses with swirl accents, and House of Harlow 1960 'Chelsea' Cat's Eye sunglasses, which I got from Pinkmoon Boutique.

I have a thing for cat-eye frames in case you haven't notice. I got the sunglasses shown on the top from Boutique 4. The ones below it are by Marni, I got them from Villa Moda several years ago, I haven't worn them that much though, maybe I need to replace the glasses with darker shades.

I got these Luella wayfarer sunglasses by Linda Farrow from AlOthman probably 4 years ago.. I fell in love with the cut-out heart detail on the side... I miss Luella..

My latest obsession are these Givenchy acetate optical glasses with statement black panther-detailed arms

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?
