Visiting Al Dukan

If you're following me on instagram (@confashions) twitter (@confashion), or regularly checking my Save the Date page, you'd probably know by now that last night I attended Bayt Lothan's 3-nights National Day celebrations. Last night's events was performed by Kuwait TV band, whom I love so much. Their songs always give that good patriotic vibe. I'll try to upload some video clips of their amazing performance later today. Anyhow, as the show ended, we decided to take a peek inside a store called Al Dukan, which uses one of Bayt Lothan's rooms as its location. The place was filled with all sorts of fashion accessories, home accessories, clothes, books. Most, if not all, items are related to Middle Eastern and Turkish heritage. I found the place to be perfect for buying gifts or if you're looking for certain accessories for your caftans, or if you want to get a taste of Turkey's famous grand bazaar (tassel necklaces in all colors imaginable!). Scroll down for more of what's in-store...

By the way, Bayt Lothan has one more performance tonight, their last one. Click here to find out more.

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 .
