As promised I brought you sneak peek photos for MUJI store before the official opening this weekend at Grand Avenue. I shop at MUJI when ever I visit London but this one is a lot bigger on the inside and it’s built on two levels, there was a wide variety of household and consumer goods like clothes, home furnishings, cosmetics, travel accessories, stationery, gift items, shoes…etc.
What I liked about MUJI stuff is that they were designed smartly, like for instance their dining table that can be folded/unfolded based on your needs. There were also customized stuff for Kuwait and the GCC region such as king size beds. However, my biggest concern was the prices, I noted the items were relatively pricier than London’s MUJI but generally prices varied from low to high to suit everyone’s budget.

I’m a fan of the American brand Kurt Geiger because they have stylish yet affordable shoes. I was at 360 Mall and saw they are opening another boutique, I remember their first boutique was opened back in 2008 at the Avenues Phase II.

Seemingly the concept of Baqalas in Kuwait is evolving, the old-school small old Baqalas are being replaced with new fancy ones that are opening everywhere in Kuwait. Some of these New Age baqalas are Dukkan and Baqala (yes its name is Baqala as in Baqala). What I like about these new Baqalas is that they provide more stuff and they have more diversity when it comes to shopping for grocery, they also have several branches over Kuwait, but on the other hand I guess they are more expensive than traditional Baqalas.
So do you prefer old Baqalas or new ones?
Thanks[link,link]
