A Nice Surprise from Net-A-Porter

Net-a-porter's team were kind and generous enough to send me a complimentary copy of their highly anticipated and addictive Spring/Summer 2008 Notes. What a nice surprise it was. I just wish they sent it a couple of months earlier when I needed some clues on what to buy. Now, I'm almost done with my summer seasonal shopping (seasonal?! Who am I kidding!!!). But it is a nice read and it's a keeper that's for sure.



This is not your regular lookbook or a designer's catalogue. It has so many stylish features and tips that just makes you want to carry it in your bag wherever you go. It lists down the trends of the season, the "it" items to buy, travel tips, designers' favourite books, movies to watch, workbook and sticker pages to build your shopping list, and best of all, anything you featured in the Notes is available (or was) to buy.



After skimming through the pages of Net-a-Porter's Spring/Summer 2008 Notes, I think now I'm convinced that I should start buying it every season as soon as it comes out. It's worth every penny.

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
