Rushing through Hala Ramadan Expo II

I finally managed to pass by Hala Ramadan Expo II which is currently being held at 360 Mall. And because I got stuck in traffic for 45 minutes and had another appointment later in the evening, I had to leave the Expo early and I didn't get the chance to see all the booths that I wanted to check like Aila bags, Raghad collection, Pieces by Farah, and AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli, I previously featured her booth here when I lusted after her wooden and diamond bracelets. Sigh!

However, I did spend the majority of my time at Al Mubarak Center's booth, because that sparkly bracelet encrusted with crystals/quartz stopped me in my tracks. Very Pamela Love/Chanel-esque! I loved it! And they had matching hoop earrings too. Actually the booth was filled with gorgeous and unique accessories like statement wide belts, jewelry, evening clutches, hair bands and more. Scroll down for some of my favorite pieces...

The Hala Ramadan Expo II will be on until Wednesday 25th April. Opening hours are from 10:00am to 10:00 pm.

I think this necklace is by Maryam Keyhani, whom I previously featured here... but I'm not quite sure.

Gorgeous belts in exotic skin and colorful feathers, perfect to accentuate your waist when wearing loose dresses or caftans.

The belt that I liked the most was this one...

Remember this leather quilted clutch by Sarah's Bag which I've featured previously here? It's even prettier up-close, and it came in a lovely shade of dusty pink. Price tag? KD 250.

Fann's booth also had a lovely selection of modern home accessories with middle eastern twist, beautifully decorated with Arabic calligraphy. You can follow them on instagram on @fann_.

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 .
