Sara's Bag.. A walk down memory lane

Remember when Sara's Bags were in several years back? I remember I first got mine from Beirut at their old store (they have a new funky store at hip Gemmayzeh now). My Lebanese friend convinced me to buy it after seeing the owner of Sarah's bag at Funnel Cafe carrying this colorful boho bag with amazing intricate details. The bag was very cheap back then and unpopular with the Kuwaiti population. And then suddenly BAM! every girl in Kuwait wanted to get her hands on the bag! They even had an exhibition twice in Kuwait and their bags were sold out within 2 hours max.


I'm over this trend now but the reason why I brought this up is because recently I saw an Interview on Future TV with Sara's Bag owners and they mentioned that very soon they will be offering their online shopping service. Isn't that interesting? Also, did you know that, in addition to Beirut, their bags are already being sold in UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar?


Looking at Sara's Bag makes you realize how far you have come in terms of fashion maturity...or if you have come very far at all!



A HUGE thank you to all of you who were kind enough to notice my absence and ask about me. Thanks for your concern and kindness. My absence was due to unfashionable circumstances. And now I'm back for good :) Thanks again.

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
