Boy Oh Boy!

When the Boy Chanel bags made their debut, I wasn't too thrilled about the collection mainly for one reason, I didn't like the look of chain used on the bag. It looked too... industrial. Bear in mind that I made my judgment based on only photos I've seen of the Chanel ‘Boy’ bag. And Boy (no pun intended) was I wrong. The other day I saw the boxy ‘Boy’ bag in black and pearly white at the brand's boutique in Salhiya Complex. So I decided to give it a try, I took a closer look, carried it on my shoulder. And at that point I pretty much got hooked, unfortunately for my savings. There is something so rough-chic about its structured shape and the geometric metal fastening featuring the iconic double C’s and yup... that industrial-looking chain. Price tag? KD 1,075 for the black one, not sure if the pearly white had the same price tag, but if you're planing to get it, here's a word of advice, don't wear it with denim to avoid staining the bag.

Thanks Congfashions for posting the price. I am intrigued though, what do you mean by not staining the bag wearing jeans? i thought the abaya was enough! I don't own a white bag due to that particular reason.

Thanks

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?
