Get to Know palmer//harding

Last September I was shopping in London's Dover Street Market, when the sales guy first introduced me to a new British brand called palmer//harding. I skimmed through the selection and instantly fell in love, I ended up buying a shirt, which at that time I thought it was a bit pricey for just a shirt, but I was on a holiday and a spending mood, so I bought it. Today, I wish I bought the entire rack! The quality of the shirt is ahhhh-maaay-zing and every time I wear it I get tons of compliments on it. It's the kind of shirt that stands the test of time, the kind you'd throw on if you're too lazy to think of what to wear, and best of all, its design is very unique. 

Having been described in the press as “the worlds most perfect shirtspalmer//harding is known best for the directional design and high quality of their shirting. According to the brand's site, the designers explore the idea of duality and contradictions in their work, elevating the ordinary to levels of modern sophistication. Their unique approach and aesthetic make palmer//harding a brand that appeals to the individual; unafraid to own a style completely unique to them. 

So imagine my excitement when I saw the same brand stocked at BLAQ Concept store a couple of months ago! I was over the moon! Remember this post? And remember THAT dress we all swooned over?? palmer//harding is  just a hop and a skip away. Heart heart!

You can shop a selection of palmer//harding's pieces at BLAQ Concept store, THESE featured pieces are not available yet BUT will be coming VERY SOON! Sonner than you think! *wink wink*. So stay tuned to find out how and when.

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.

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .
