Introducing Boutique ORA

Little fashion boutiques are like hidden treasures. So when my cousin called me to introduce me to his friend's newly opened boutique, I got very excited (and even more excited after checking their instagram account!). Boutique ORA opened its door on Thursday 20th of December 2012 at Omniya Centre in Salmiya Salem Al Mubarak St. Let me give you my impression about it in a nutshell, if you're looking for something that's uber-cool and that's not entirely mainstream, then you must check it out.
Boutique ORA was a dream of two young men from different backgrounds Ahmad Al Reshaid and Marco De Nardi who shared one passion and one dream. They believed that the fascinating change of consumer attitude toward fashion in Kuwait gave them a push and a sign that the market was mature enough to go for quality over quantity. And that's how it all started.

Boutique ORA carries six exclusive brands in Kuwait all made in Italy by talented emerging and uprising Italian designers. Such as Carlo Contrada, who won the famous VOGUE ITALIA new designer to watch, Isabel Benenato, a Central St. Martin alumni who has unique edgy deconstructed designs using top notch natural elements like Italian pure wool and silk, Misuraca, who worked with British designer John Richmond and is known for its elegant designs, Avelon offers an uber-chic selection of pieces using interesting materials like viscose, silk, and wool ideal for women of all ages, Barbara Gongini, a Danish designer who studied and is currently working in Milano offers a selection of extremely edgy designs using simple cotton, and last but not least, A brand A part which is a brand that represents the philosophy of simplicity, elegance and tradition of handmade Italian accessories, using only pure Italian handmade leather.

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 .
