What Shoes to Buy this Season

What's a better way to make an impact than wearing a new pair of statement shoes. And like every season I try to limit my want/need shoes list to three or four pairs, but that's of course always impossible when you're surrounded with mouthwatering selection of shoes to choose from! Boots, platforms, pumps, stilettos…oh my! Here are some suggestions to transform your look in one spectacular step for fall with this very brief edit of wonder heels which I spotted during my recent trip to London.

Let's start with this Fendi mixed media Oxford ankle boot, I can't get over how beautiful the details are on the wooden heel. You can pair the boots with slightly flared pants, pencil skirt, or a pair or cropped pants. Don't worry about the rest, these boots are made for walking flaunting. You can find similar ones here.

Nicholas Kirkwood For Peter Pilotto Printed Satin Pumps... need I say more? You can find one of the styles here.

And of course another Nicholas Kirkwood creation for Erdem, the tweed boots with the coolest structured heels.

After seeing these Rupert Sanderson guns and roses embroidered wedge boots, I kind of regret buying my Isabel Marant cowboy boots. These look so much cooler!

While shopping around Selfridges I came across this new shoes brand called SW1, so I did some research and found out that's its a new line by Stuart Weitzman created under the creative direction of Spanish designer Alvaro Gonzalez, who previously worked with Valentino and Jimmy Choo. I loved them and unfortunately the photo here really does not do the shoes any justice, especially the marble-like or mother-of-pearl details on the heels. But you can get a better and a closer look here.

Prada's lace-up perfection in the photo above and a jeweled slippers (shown below) to glam up your casual chic denim looks... heart!

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?
