Sirdab 6 Ramadan Collection

Ms. Souad J. Al Sabah is one of my go-to local designers whenever I start the hunt for Ramadan's caftan. Since her early stages, her label Sirdab 6 has focused on creating colorful caftans with clashing prints in silhouettes and styles that make women feel comfortable, confident, and chic. I remember once not so long ago we received a message announcing the arrival of Sirdab 6's Ramadan Caftans collection, and we found out later through friends that people were already parking outside the exhibition's location at least 30-45 minutes before the opening hour of the exhibition to beat the crowd... and secure their caftan. My sister, being very prompt, was able to snatch one or two caftans. And me being 20 minutes late, only ended up looking at empty racks. What can I say, I learned my lesson the hard way.

Anyhow, last night I was thrilled when I received an e-mail from Ms. Souad J. Al Sabah informing me of the launch of her revamped website and that her latest Ramadan designs are now featured online. It's exciting to see her work come to life in a form of a lookbook, with accessories and all. Beautiful photos. It is worth mentioning that all fabrics used were printed exclusively for Sirdab 6 Ramadan collection.

Featured here some of my favorite looks. That tribal-inspired caftan is gorgeous! You can view the collection by clicking here. For further inquiries, please send an e-mail to info@sirdab6.com. Sirdab 6 was previously featured on my blog here and here.

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.
