To Marni or not to Marni?

So the much-hyped designer collaboration of the season, Marni for H&M has finally graced the window displays of H&M Boutique in the Avenues. I'm sure most of you by now know the launch date by heart, but in case you're living under a rock, it's set to launch on 8th March. I took a closer look at the accessories, and I must admit in a sea of designer collaborations we've been exposed to the past couple of years, the accessories of this collection could actually be worth queuing up for if you're a major Marni fan.. I hope it won't turn into a stampede like the last time!

I really hope it's not a stamped either!! This is why I hate designer collaborations.
I just want one thing, the sunglasses from the women's collection :)

I agree with you 100%, the accessories are the main thing I'm aiming to get my hands on. I haven't been to one of these events in Kuwait before as I was always out of the country, so I went ahead and read your post on the Versace one. I feel a little less excited that I received an invite now :p I was counting on being able to grab a few things before a crowd rushes in, I sincerely hope this event doesn't go the same way the Versace one did!

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.

Marie Claire Kuwait

Did you know that Marie Claire, an international women's magazine, has been launched in Kuwait and their second issue is already in newsstands? Winner of the Best Women's Magazine and Magazine of the Year award for 2005, the magazine reportedly has over 14 million readers worldwide with 26 editions in 13 languages across the world. Marie Clair - Kuwait is in Arabic of course. The magazine offers an editorial mix of journalism with glamour, fashion and beauty coverage, and feature stories of lifestyle and serious women related issues. All by an Arabic editorial team. Have you read it? If yes, what do you think of it?

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?
