Hotel Particulier

I just found out through a friend that Parisien brand Hotel Particulier's store has been open for quite sometime in The Avenues Phase II. I've heard of the brand before, I think they used to be stocked at net-a-porter.com, and is currently stocked at Harvey Nichols Kuwait too, but never bought from it. So I decided to check the store out. According to brand's bio on their website, the philosophy behind the brand is accessible luxury fashion for women who demand cutting edge design with wearable pieces.

The store is located in the same strip where Salad Boutique is, opposite to Shoebox NY. The selection on display incorporated a combination of fur, leather, cashmere and silk into its designs. I liked some of the fur vests on display, but I think they were mainly fox fur. I liked there selection of leather pieces, which unfortunately I did not take photos of, but you can have an idea by clicking 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.
