Seeing Doubles

Zara is having fun this season by taking inspirations from the most coveted shoes of Spring runways (more like copying). Take your pick from Zara/Balmain-ish punk-rock studded and blinged sandals, Zara/LV-ish tribal embossed snake-skin sandals, and Zara/Chloé-ish futuristic modern sandals in cobalt blue shiny leather (from last season's collections). All shoes are under KD 40.

First show looks interesting, perhaps a bit too much yet a push toward things more interesting.

Copy/ Paste....

I know some people who work at Zara's head company, and they told me about the company's approach towards design. Because they produce clothes all year long, and have a strategy to showcase new clothes almost every week, whenever they see popular designs and trends by big fashion houses (eg. Gucci, LV, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta...) or whatever will be trendy in the next 6 months, they produce exact almost identical replicas of the same thing. Often having to hold a picture of "the original design"to make sure it looks the same.

And that is what the Zara business is solely based on.

To Anonymous,

The reason no one sued them is because the Zara designs are ot exact replicas but rather feature strong similarities in design, plus they do not copy "copy-written" designs.

wore to the "He's not that into you" premiere with the gorgeoues green dress!

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
