Max Azria Boutique Now Open in Kuwait

Max Azria's first freestanding boutique in Kuwait is now open at Arraya Complex. I was thrilled when I first heard about it, but all the excitement quickly gone away the moment I stepped into the store. MAJOR disappointment. I was hoping to find unconventional, stylish, and one of a kind pieces that I used to see abroad. The selection looked a bit outdated and too... blah!

The store had a selection of flowy chiffon and silk dresses, curve-hugging cardigans, and wide pyjama-like pants. The only thing at the store that was slightly satisfying was the small selection of shoes and handbags/clutches. They had an oversized pink salmon clutch which looked really cute. And I liked one pair of navy snake-skin heels trimmed with cobalt blue leather. But the price tag turned me off especially that they're not known to be shoe makers. It was retailed at KD 305. Check it out just to satisfy your curiosity, but don't expect too much.

Max Azria boutique is located at Arraya Complex (ground floor) in between Genki Sushi and Whistles.

oOooOOoooOOoooOoohhh am still going =) was telling some folks today how much I wanted to take a looksie... the reason many stores suck is that buyers lack market knowledge, in addition to zero taste. God bless online shopping & Al-Othman.

yeah i totally agree.Their merchandise buyers are not studying the market or their demographics. I'm a merchandise major and what they bring to their stores are not what their customers want.aAghhh it drives me nuts i wanna go to the stores and tell them what to do right!

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 .
