All I want now is...

For those of you who appreciate the finer things in life, here's a "little" treat. Instead of running around looking for the latest IT bag or the latest clothes to wear for fall, why not treat yourself with this gorgeous Van Cleef & Arpels mother of pearl necklace from the Alhambra collection?

You have probably seen it in paparazzi photos of celebs like Reese Witherspoon, wearing it while doing her errands. Or, surprisingly, Paris Hilton (That's probably the only thing she wore that I actually want!). The beautiful necklace retails for approximately $10,000.


So, Mom.. if you're reading this and if you've been feeling charitable lately, this is your opportunity to make a generous gift to your precious daughter. I also welcome any Monetary donations if you're too tired to go shopping. I love you too, mom. :)

The birkin is old, I don't see it going out of fashion :P Jewelry don't go out of fashion that easily :) besides, they just launched a newer version of the nechlace, you can check it out online on their website.

I know.. you can also buy the fake ones online for $80.

P.S: Thank you very much ;)

Update: I just read on the net that The new collection aimed to younger generation, which will makes its way to the U.S. for an exclusive preview on July 10, will hit stores in October. Prices are expected to start at around $800.
The collection includes bracelets and pendants on chains—shorter pieces perfect for younger girls with longer, complementary versions for moms with the same whimsical turquoise or mother-of-pearl clovers, butterflies and hearts only in miniature.

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
