Introducing ARNAA

It's always a treat for me to be introduced to local and regional emerging talents. A few weeks ago I received an e-mail introducing me to a new luxury women footwear brand called Arnaa by a Kuwaiti Shoes Designer Farah Sultan.

As I skimmed through the lookbook, I found myself loving the open-toe flats decorated with bright purple leather orchids. It would make such an ideal shoes to pack for an exotic getaway. Some styles would appeal to those who love quirky cool designs.

According to the brand's bio, Arnaa uses the finest, high quality materials to create stylish footwear that reflects a distinct taste for high-end fashion. All Arnaa shoes are made in Italy, at one of the best shoes factories that has produced some styles for Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin, to ensure that quality and precision is at the center of the production.

Farah Sultan has spent the greater portion of her life studying designs that represent the finest Italian artisan footwear. Following her attainment of a BA degree in Design Management, Shoe Technical Design / Pattern Making and Leadership in the most reputable schools, Farah has worked 5 years in her family business then moved to Milan to study at the prestigious Ars Sutoria School.

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.
