Why Our It-Bags Are Getting Mini-er But Mightier
On the streets of Paris, New York, and Dubai, you'll see them tucked under arms like tiny sculptures – beaded, bedazzled, metallic, matte. The point isn't to be useful. The point is to be seen… You're walking through a store, not really looking for anything at all, and then you spot it – a tiny, gleaming bag that couldn't possibly hold anything more than a lipstick and a credit card. It's bold, dramatic, and maybe even a little ridiculous. But for some reason, you can't stop staring. It's the same feeling you had as a child playing dress-up, grabbing the smallest, shiniest bag in the room, not because it made sense, but because it made you feel something. Back then, fashion wasn't about practicality. It was about joy. About imagination. About choosing the most exciting thing, just because. The same energy is back. Only now, it requires an investment purchase. Statement bags are definitely getting smaller and bolder, ditching practicality for pure personality. They aren't meant to carry your whole life, just a moment, a mood. Maybe a lip liner, gloss and some setting spray, at best. And in a world where everything lives on our phones, that's really all we need. So we just want a bag that does something, even if that something is just making us smile. Major maisons have leaned into the fantasy. At Chanel, miniature bags appeared in intricate finishes, worn doubled up, cross body, or even as wristlets; less about function, more about charm. Fendi, never one to shy away from a statement, revived its iconic Baguette in micro-form, dripping in crystals and colour, proving that even the most classic silhouettes can still be reimagined with a wink. On the streets of Paris, New York, and Dubai, you'll see them tucked under arms like tiny sculptures – beaded bedazzled, metallic, matte. The point isn't to be useful. The point is to be seen. Because these days, the bag is the often more impactful than the outfit. In a sea of neutral wardrobes and minimalist silhouettes, a loud and sculptured mini says more than any quiet luxury could. It tells you who someone is before they even speak. Is she polished or kooky? Refined or bold? Minimalist or maximalist? You can read someone's entire vibe from the bag they're carrying, and that's the beauty of it. So if you're wondering whether a tiny impractical pouch is worth it, ask yourself this. When was the last time your tote really made you feel something? Sometimes, the smallest thing in the room might just be the mightiest. In a world obsessed with trends, timelines, and what's next, that little but loud bag could be the most revealing thing you wear.

Bazaar Arabia has compiled 5 products that are near-impossible to get your hands on… 5 Of The Most Difficult Beauty Products To Get Your Hands On Rare Beauty Eau De Perfume and Layering Balm Ever since the brand's launch a few years ago, Rare Beauty has dominated makeup bags around the world, and now it plans to take over your perfume drawer. Launched just a few days ago through a brilliant marketing run, Rare Eau de Parfum is a lush blend of sweet vanilla, creamy caramel, and spicy sandalwood, packaged in a bottle that is easily accessible to those with mobility issues. The parfum can be paired with the brand's most original product yet – the layering balm, available in a variety of scents, ranging from woody oak to floral bergamot, this innovative idea has encouraged fans to mix, match, and create their own unique fragrances. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez (@rarebeauty) Huda Beauty Easy Bake Powder Yes, its been a best seller for years, but thanks to a new era of TikTok beauty tutorials, this iconic setting powder has been catapulted to new heights of fame, and once again Huda's Easy Bake has become nearly impossible to track down in its most popular shades. Lightweight yet blurring, it locks makeup in place from morning majlis to midnight events. A Dubai-born staple that's become a global phenomenon and proof that some viral hits have true staying power. View this post on Instagram A post shared by HUDA BEAUTY (@hudabeauty) Summer Fridays Blush Butter Balm The darling of clean beauty trends strikes once again. Summer Fridays' Butter Blush Balm is exactly what it sounds like — buttery, blending, and buildable, melting into skin with zero patchiness. The shades flatter every undertone, and the packaging is impossibly chic in your makeup pouch. Beauty editors recommend applying it high on the cheeks for that effortlessly sunlit look, which explains why influencers from LA to Beirut are fighting for the restock. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Summer Fridays (@summerfridays) Haus Labs Triclone™ Foundation Lady Gaga's Haus Labs has done what few celebrity brands manage: release a complexion product that professionals and casual beauty lovers swear by. This foundation, powered by fermented arnica and a biomimicry technology that adapts to skin, delivers that elusive 'real skin, but better' finish. It's transfer-resistant yet feather-light, and works in Dubai's humidity just as beautifully as it does in Paris in the fall. Good luck finding your shade — it's sold out almost everywhere. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Haus Labs by Lady Gaga (@hauslabs) About Face Matte Fix Lip Plump Halsey's beauty brand, About Face, already has a cult following for its pigment pay-offs, but the Matte Fix Lip Plump is the fan favourite. Notable for its iconic blurred matte finish, this lip plump manages to stay on all day without a breeze, which is why every drop sells out faster than concert tickets – and that's saying something.

Fawad Khan's 'Abir Gulaal' to Be Released After a Long Delay
After a prolonged and politically fraught delay, Fawad Khan's comeback film Abir Gulaal is finally set for release, globally on August 29, 2025, in over 75 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UAE. Originally slated for a May 9 release in India, the film's debut was scrapped following the Pahalgam terror attack in April 2025, which ignited widespread outrage and calls to boycott Pakistani artists. Industry bodies like the All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) and FWICE vocally opposed the film's release, leading to its indefinite postponement in India. The film, directed by Aarti S. Bagdi and produced by Vivek Agrawal, features Vaani Kapoor opposite Fawad Khan and includes acclaimed actors such as Lisa Haydon, Farida Jalal, Ridhi Dogra, and Parmeet Sethi. Though fans in India are still waiting, Abir Gulaal draws a parallel with Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaar Ji 3, which also bypassed India amid tensions, yet achieved strong success overseas. With its romantic drama centered on redemption, connection, and second chances, Abir Gulaal brings Fawad Khan back after a nine-year hiatus from Bollywood. Though India's release remains uncertain, the global rollout gives the film a fresh opportunity to reach audiences internationally.
