Orient 499

I love Orient 499. Who doesn't?! I mean, If I could, I would just ship everything in-store to Kuwait and decorate my home with it. I previously posted about this gorgeous Beirut-based store on my blog here and here. It has a vast selection of oriental/Middle Eastern clothes and home accessories with a modern twist.Whomever does their visual merchandising is just plain genius.

The children's corner and the hidden garden are my favorite sections of the stores with a new collection of girls mini kaftans as well as sherwel for little boys. The dining room is breathtaking with products to make any hostess weak in the knees. The bedroom is beautifully decorated with a pretty collection of bed linens, iconic oriental sofas, and lights. Everything is just so pretty and almost all of the items are quite pricey, especially the caftans!! I can justify buying a piece of furniture or home accessory that will last for years and years to come, but a caftan that's over $1,000 is just not worth it (but daaaaymn they look so good!!).

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 .
