Object of Desire

While I was in Dubai a few weeks ago to attend I spotted these ahhh-maaayy-zing straw chevron shorts by Parisian chic brand Carven at S*uce boutique, and I fell truly madly deeply in love with them. Unlikely for me, they ran out in my size. So I did the next best thing, try them on anyways to see if I could make some sort of alterations to make them fit by force! That didn't work unfortunately for me. And of course I searched for them online only to find that they're only available in black, which kind of defeats the purpose of wearing something made out of straw. I'm still on the look out, so if you come across these beauties, hollaaaa. 

I love the fact that Carven was able to reinterpret a classic silhouette by using woven straw as the material. Would look amazing paired with oversized sweatshirt or button-down shirt, and a pair of cute flats.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
