Carolina Herrera was in Kuwait!?!?

Carolina Herrera (the daughter not the designer) was in Kuwait and in the Avenues?!?!?? How come we don't get to know about such events until after they occur! Bummer!

I just found out about it through Al Watan TV tonight. Apparently, the daughter of, er, Carolina Herrera was in Kuwait for the store's official opening CH by Carolina Herrera (I think! or was it a launch of a new perfume?).

haha, how funny she was in Dubai too. Also didn't know about it until the day after she left! How is it that bloggers sit front row at D&G in Milan & yet website owners and bloggers here have no idea when someone like that is in the region!!

did a mini survey in Dxb - newspapers knew she was here.
can't wait till the day PR co's/fashion industry in GCC, wakes up to the fact that online is the way fwd (if I'm still alive!) lol!

The concept of involving bloggers and online portals to press announcements is fairly new to this region I guess, we shouldn’t be surprised. But I can't help it :P

Interesting.. Thanks for sharing..
Local bloggers are off limits to entrepreneurs, for starters get their names right, - that was Carolina Adriana; muse and collaborator on the 212 men fragrance. One of the other daughters is based at the NY design office (Patricia Lansing). Prior to inducting the etiquette protocol of interviewing a celebrity/designer/hot shots – arrangements are conducted from their home base; where publicists circle around a hefty net of worthy PR within relation and limited time frame during the stay in each country.

Few international bloggers get invited to such events because apart from the crucial part that they can identify people by their full name, use spell check, also refrain from two words that equal death kisses "it" & "fashionista" – they are also serving the fashion business immensely.

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 .
