The Sisterhood of the Borrowing Pants

I spotted this insanely gorgeous Hervé Van Der Straeten hammered ribbon-like gold-plated cuff on my sister for Eid and suddenly I longed for the old days when all of my sisters and I lived under one roof and easily borrowed from each other. It was so funny borrowing from each other because I had some certain rules that they had to follow and vice versa, like they were never ever allowed to borrow new things that I hadn't worn yet, things borrowed had to be returned EXACTLY the way they were in the cupboard (hello Monica Geller?!!), no spraying perfumes on my borrowed clothes.. etc. And god forbid if you break a rule! You'd have to plan for an escape route or resort to a some sort of "financial" compensation! 

Do you borrow from your sisters? if yes, what are/were your rules?

I still live under the same roof with my sister, we borrow lots of shoes and bag from each others but the hell would break loose if she borrowed something that hasn't been worn yet :P

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.
