    Just found out that they’re planning on solving the Al-Bidaa roundabout congestion by building an overpass over the roundabout. According to the article in Al Jarida, this project will take around two years to complete after all the approvals are given. Now if someone can also solve the parking issue that would be great.

  • IMF sees Kuwait using all oil savings by 2017

    Kuwait will have exhausted all its oil savings by 2017 if it keeps on spending money at the current rate, the International Monetary Fund said in a report published on Tuesday. The IMF, which held a regular consultation with the OPEC member state in the last two weeks of April, said Kuwait would not be able to save oil receipts into its future generations fund. Not sure what all that means or how it will affect us directly but according to my Magic 8 Ball, the outlook doesn’t seem good. [Link]

    I have a lot of information to share about my trip to Audemars Piguet and I’m going to try and keep it interesting and informative since I know not everyone is into watches like I am. First just a bit of history on how that Swiss valley where AP is located became such a hotspot for all the watchmakers. The Audemars Piguet facilities are located in Vallée de Joux which is considered to be “the heart of Swiss watchmaking”. In the early 1800′s a watchmaker moved into the valley and started producing watches and when his business started booming he needed to hire help.

Uh huh.  Did so.).  What a nice thing to do!  And our hostess in Dubai, Cheesecake Girl, was amazingly hospitable too, so shout out girlfraaaaaynd!  I really haven't enjoyed previous trips to Dubai - not even worthy of blogposting.

  • Event: Debut of H By F Designs at AlOthman

    15 May 2012 | 12:30 am
    I was invited to attend the launch of designer Fahad Al Marzouq's exotic leather handbag collection HbyF designs, which was held last night at AlOthman Boutique. The warm-welcoming hosts, the cool bags, the fashionable crowd, and the whole ambiance, the launch party was nothing short of amazing. The first thing I did when I got there before socializing was take a closer look at Fahad's creations. The handbag collection was designed using rich exotic leather, ombred feathers, lots of studded details, and had a great deal of fine craftsmanship. I truly believe that this time Fahad was able to…

  • Zara?! For Real!

    14 May 2012 | 4:00 pm
    It's amazing how every season Zara presents a pair or two from its shoes collection which look too good to be labeled as high street! Yes, they are not always that comfy or made of the greatest material, but they have some of the best designed selection amongst all other high-street stores and of course budget-friendly. I spotted these at Zara London the other day, I'm sure they're available in Kuwait too as I remember seeing them before, and I was really contemplating whether I should get a pair or not. The style featured in the first photo reminded me of Prada's S/S 2011 collection. And I…

    Can someone really have the willpower to stick to their shopping budget when in London? I salute you if you can. I have desperately tried to stick to my so-called shopping budget, but it's impossible when you're surrounded by all this eye arm candy! And just when my obsession with the Céline's nano and luggage bags started to fade out, there comes Céline's multi-colored envelop clutch/shoulder bag in at least 3 different colors schemes! And of course there were Céline's trapeze bag shown in the 3rd photo below, Chanel's Boy bag, and my latest obsession of…

  • Trip to سوق المباركية

    13 May 2012 | 2:37 pm
    I love unexpected trips to extremely random places. I and F decided to go to سوق المباركية. سوق المباركية is definitely one of my favorite places in Kuwait. I had my Polaroid Z340 with me and took loads of awesome photos. I was also searching for a store selling vintage/retro stuff, from the good ol’ days. (Warning: Photos contain fisheye effect) My favorite effect on the polaroid, that and the lomography effect. Interesting finds really. An old pepsi bottle for 90KD and more interesting stuff. Stay tuned for the next post (probably tomorrow).
