Today I paid my first visit to ALOTHMAN outlet in a last attempt to find the perfect bronze shoes to match my Eid outfit. Not only did I find the perfect pair, they were Christian Louboutins, and dangerously discounted!

I ended up walking out the outlet with two shopping bags.

The colour of this lovely Loubies was excatly what I was looking for. They are a mixture of patent leather and velvet. And with a price tag of KD95 how could I resist! The pair were originally priced at KD315.

I also got this gorgeous pair of Pierre Hardy everning shoes. They really flatter the feet and make them look fabulous. Discounted price tag was KD135. Originally priced at KD449

I’m extremely impressed with the collection and the prices available in the outlet. I think this is the closest you can get to a great bargain in Kuwait. It’s totally worth a visit.

ALOTHMAN Outlet is Located in Salmiya, Mariam Complex, 1st floor, above ALOTHAM boutique.

I was browsing through Martha Stewart website for some home storage and organizing tips. She has some great simple ideas that make a huge difference in your home. What’s more lovely is that all her ideas are DIY projects and budget friendly.

I stumbled upon this lovely necklace by coincidence in the crafts section. Im not much into crafts myself. But sometimes my hands just itch to create something from scratch. I was surprised with the easy steps involved in making this sophisticated looking necklace. It looks gorgeous attached to a plain top.

This project will definitely have a spot in my to do list!

You can view the step by step instructions in Martha’s website here.

I have been eyeing this product for quite a long time now. It’s the perfect tool to fold shirts, towels, pants and other garments for the closet. You get a perfect, crisp, flat uniform fold and a perfect size.

Anyone knows if  I can find it in Kuwait? If not I will end up ordering it from the States through their website. Link

If you are a frequent shopper at London Selfridges, you would know ILLAMASQUA.

ILLAMASQUA is a British make up line that was launched exclusively to UK Selfridges around 2 years ago. I’m in love with their products, Specially their lipsticks and powder blushers. ILLAMASQUA lipsticks have a very matte, rich, creamy texture that will last hours after hours. My friend just came back from london and brought me their signature red lipstick “Box”. They told her that now they are available in only three places around the world:

UK, USA (SEPHORA only) , and …….

Dubai Bloomingdales!

I was shocked and over the moon to know this! Now I can restock whenever I want

I can’t recall the names of the powder blushers I have as I’m not at home right now! But as for the lipsticks, I own 5 colors:

Planning to get more when I go to Dubai in June.

I am very pleased with this product line and highly recommend it.

I’ve known about ShoeDazzle ever since it launched a year ago and fell in love with the concept instantly, but unlucky me I don’t live in the States.

ShoeDazzle is an Online Shoe Society website created and owned by the famous Kim Kardashian.  Its concept evolves around having your own personal shoes stylist.

You fill in a one time survey to find out the shoes styles that you like. After you register, the website stylists introduce to you 5 pairs of shoes every month to buy a pair from for the flat rate amount of $39.95. You have the option to buy more that one pair each month, or to skip months that you don’t want to buy any shoes in.

The collection of shoes available are unique, stylish, and to die for.

ShoeDazzle is available for the US only and I don’t know if it works with Aramex or DHL.

More information and pictures are available on the website.

I spotted this nails inc stand at House of Fraser department store in London. I loved how they added cotton and nail polish remover so that you can have the freedom of trying all the colors you want without bothering any sales people.
