News: Best Director Award for Kuwaiti Director Dana Al Mojil

I'm super excited and proud to share with you that Kuwaiti Director Dana Al Mojil won the Best Director award at the Fifth Gulf Film Festival last Monday in Dubai for her movie Wonderland: A True Story.

Filmed in Kuwait, Wonderland: A True Story is an adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s in Wonderland and it reflects on various sociopolitical issues within our region. It is also worth mentioning that the film won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2011 Zero Film Festival in Los Angeles.

I had the pleasure of attending the screening of Wonderland: A True Story almost a month ago and was very impressed with the ideas expressed within the film, the quality of production and direction, and most of all, the performance of the actors and actresses.

Congratulations Dana and looking forward to your future projects.

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.
