The FA Gallery - Part I


The first thing that crossed my mind when I stepped inside the FA Gallery was “I want to move in and live here forever!” 

Situated in an historic Arabic House opposite to Amiri Hospital, and owned by Al Otaibi Family, the FA Gallery is a Boutique and Art Gallery that opened on 10/10/10. The ground floor is an art gallery which hosts wonderfully exquisite work by regional and international artists. And the 1st floor has a small collection of fashion and accessories for men and women by South American brands. I think they will be introducing more brands in the future so the collection should be bigger and better. 

I must say the place is just so serene and magical. I loved the fact that when they revamped the place they stayed true to its original look. I loved the mix of old and new. I’ve been in and out up and down the entire gallery, everything was simply beautiful. The art pieces on display and the interior were a feast for the eyes.
This is exactly what we need in Kuwait. We need more cultural and artistic hubs. All in all, it was a superb visual experience and a must-visit. 

I have total of 3 posts dedicated for this gallery because I wanted to share everything I liked there and I couldn’t just put them all in one post. So enjoy!

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 .
