Dar il Salhiya.. A New Gallery For Your Exhibitions

If Juicy Couture's store had a Kuwaiti version of it, it would be pretty much like "Dar il Salhiya". No, I'm not referring to the tracksuits. I'm referring to the interior design of the store. Dar il Salhiya is the latest addition to galleries which you can rent at if you wish to have an exhibition. It's very similar to Bait Badra or Villa Karizma in concept.


Located next to Salhiya Complex where Sari House used to be, Dar il Salhiya is divided into 6 sections available for rent. One of the sections has been specifically designed for accessories. And one of the other sections has a dedicated fitting room. The prices of the rent is reasonable, for instance, The accessories section would cost KD 40 per day. The interior is nice but I felt it was a bit gloomy for a gallery. But I like it's location, at least it's close to the underground parking opposite to Salhiya Complex. Here are some photos of the place.






I loved this girly pink glass & wood cabinet but unfortunately, it was not for sale. It's part of the interior. If you're interested to rent at Dar il Salhiya, you can call them at (+965) 2406001.

Dar Salhiya looks very not-so proper for its ground floor location inside of a dilapidated 60s era building - one of several still haunting a mostly fashion forward Kuwait City.

Dar il Salhiya is very chic but wait till you've visited "Libido -The Gallery", in Rawda. Man, I tell you the place is something else : a rare marriage between urban bohemia and Majlis al umma sophistication making it a most atmospheric space to be in;this side of the Gulf.
All you lounge lizards go check out their underground lounge bar & Turkish hammam

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.
