Definition by Nadine Mneimneh

When I first got introduced to Lebanese designer Nadine Mneimneh's work back in 2011, I clearly remember how colorful and fun her designs were. I have previuosly featured her work here. But when I received an e-mail from Nadine a week ago sharing with me these pictures of her new collection and  atelier, I was amazed at how her work progressed into something of understated elegance and timeless appeal. It felt like her designs have matured but in a really good way. The shapes are basic but are defined by elements of urbanity. And I like how she kept her choice of colors dark to complement the timeless silhouette.

This capsule collection is the first of a series which comes under the theme definition. 'Garments can be evocative of our stories, our moods, or just things we accumulate to reach our ideal self image. This capsule tells my own story.' described the designer her new collection.

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 .
