The Oscar Goes to Tassels

I loved the turquoise Oscar de la Renta beaded tassel earrings the moment I saw them dangling and swaying on Serena's ears of Gossip Girl. Of course the turquoise earrings were soon sold out with a blink of an eye, and I ended up buying the navy version of the earrings from AlOthman boutique, because they looked just as glamorous minus the fun brightness of the turquoise ones of course, plus they were on sale so I couldn't resist. Last week, I found a shorter version of the beaded tassels in a fabulous shade of emerald green, one of my favorite colors, at Oscar de la Renta's boutique in Dubai, part of their new pre-fall collections. I immediately got them because the tassels were just perfect in length, and of course they will be adding spark and sparkle any outfit, especially black-colored ones. I also found another pair in maroon, and ivory white (but had long tassels). I also found some really nice statement necklaces and retro-like earrings and bracelets from the pre-fall collections. They also had the cutest floral dress... more on that later.

They're not too heavy, I've worn heavier stuff... and I think the fact that they're clip-on makes them easier and bearable to wear :)

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?
