Outfit of the Day / Kuwait's MoMA

This was supposed to be an Outfit of the Day post, but then I was too mesmerized by the beauty and creativity surrounding me, that I forgot to take close-up shots of my outfit and settled for showcasing this beauty found at Kuwait's Museum of Modern Art. I have first visited it in 2007 and then again in 2011 (previous posts here and here). Honestly I didn't expect to find new pieces added, but I was surprised to find this AMAZING huge mural in the museum's courtyard, which worked perfectly as a background for my below blogger pose. And then I bumped into the museum's curator who explained to me that this was a very recent project done by four Kuwaiti artists who completed the mural in less than a week. Unfortunately I can't remember their names, but when I find out who exactly, I'll update the post accordingly. Other painting and sculptures that I loved are shown below with details, they're not all necessarily new but they're definitely worth to be featured for their beauty. 

As for my outfit, green khaki houlihan jeans by J Brand, navy cotton top (which I looooove cause it looks like a cape from the back but it's not) by Complex Geometrics from Boutique 4Marsèll sandals (barely shown in the photo when you scroll down, my blue mirror sunnies, and panama hat. Oh! and lots of arm party. 

Check out the details of the mural! Amazing!! Wouldn't you say??!

This one's not new but I never get bored of, a bronze sculpture by Kuwaiti artist Sami Mohammed, done in 1978.

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.
