  • New deliveries for Prada, Miu Miu, YSL, Bottega Veneta, Selvador Ferragamo, and Dolce & Gabbana Autumn/Winter 2007 have arrived at Villa Moda Shuwaikh.

  • Topshop was forced to destroy hundrads of lemon yellow dungaree dresses and pay thousands of pounds in legal costs, after being accused of copying a dress designed by See by Chloe. Will this encourage fashion houses to strike back at high street copycats?

Venice Sheraton
you know, I'm clueless myself... I've been to Al MAnshar 10 days ago and saw VM's location, they haven't even started the decoration and the interior design. So I don't see it opening anytime soon.. or at least that's what I have noticed.

Where does one go bargain hunting for Comme des Garcons and Ungaro in Kuwait? Do they have like a factory outlet for these brands in Kuwait?

sorry, my slips showing
you can find Comme Des Garcons at Al Oustora at Al Sahab Complex (next to Salhiya Complex) or at Zahra Complex in Salmiya. You will find some of their stuff on sale.

As for Ungaro, it is located at Mariam Complex. Again, not all of it's collection is on sale. So you will only find few pieces.

I don't think there is a factory outlet for these specific brands in Kuwait. Then again, I could be wrong.

hmm.. High End Fashion brands don't have time to sue every single high street shops because they copied this and that .. unless it is an exact relpica of one of their items and if they sell items using their name .. They better sue those big campanies in China for their bootleg version of their products.

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.
