Something for Your Home

One of the things I enjoy doing when travelling is checking out the latest trends in modern furniture and homeware sections, not necessarily to buy, but to get an idea of what's new and hip in their field. Take notes for my future home. I normally like to take a walk down King's road in London,  there's a good selection of contemporary furnishing stores, but due to time time contraint, I only managed to check out the selection at Harrods and Selfridges, and it didn't disappoint. At I found a beautiful selection of modern blue chinoiserie home accessories and rugs, I loved how they matched the pieces with striking bright orange sofa. The mega huge ceiling lights‎ in geometric designs looked breathtaking too! I wish I memorized the brands names! Selfridges had a cool section for Anthropologie, the american brand for shabby chic clothes and home accessories. Their dinning sets and plates were so pretty! I'm sure we'll see this franchise soon in K-town.

What is your favorite contemporary home stores in Kuwait and internationally?

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.

Amazing Alia

Several months ago I posted about Alia Designs , a Kuwaiti talented designer of traditional clothes and dresses. Back then, I liked one of the items featured on her website.

Looks very young, comfortable, and oh-so-perfect for after futoor! For inquiries please visit the website or call (+965) 642-7400.
