Madame La Reine Vintage

This post is dedicated to our readers in Jeddah for the time being. Ever felt that your closets are filled with fabulous bags and shoes which have only been used once or twice? And have never been used again since? What to do with them? Send them to Madame La Reine.

Madame La Reine is a new concept in this region where you can "Recycle" your designer bags, shoes, accessories and clothes by sending them to Madame La Reine and they will sell them for you so you could use the money for your next "it" purchase or better yet for charity.




Madame La Reine accepts and re-sells an array of brands such as Gucci, Prada, Dior, Chanel and the list goes on. All items are in great and mint condition at fantastic prices. Heba Akki from Saudi Arabia is the brains behind this remarkable concept. They work by appointment to give their clients time and space to browse and try things on. Items for sale are done anonymously and names are not mentioned. Here are a sample photos of what's available:




Madame La Reine is currently available in Jeddah and will soon open in Riyadh. I fell in love with this concept. And I really hope we'll have similar vintage shops here in Kuwait. It's very convenient and it saves your old stuff from being trashed.

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 .
