Bring It On

Since the credit crunch crisis, almost everyone is thinking twice before purchasing luxury items. Some of you who have been working their budget since late last year, haven’t purchased much of anything in the clothes and shoes department. Depressing I know! So I have been challenged by two of my amusing readers to find stylish items and on-trend ensembles that are less than KD 100.

So, Today I am proud to announce my first selections for the Credit Crunch Friendly Shopping Game... Shoes by Kurt Geiger.

We all know that finding cheap, stylish, and comfortable shoe is like asking Amy Winehouse not to put on black eyeliner. It often seems like the stuff of legend or impossible to happen.

Not in Kurt Geiger’s case, this is the place to go and get cheap, stylish, and comfortable shoes. I’m not saying that this applies to the entire collection, but you can easily find several heels/flats that fall under these criteria. And the best part? Prices start from KD 25 to maximum KD 60.

Very Marni-like orange and grey patent leather platform heels

Just look at the cute strctured ruffles on the back of this soft pink satin platform heels


Comfy flats for the weekend

Kurt Geiger is located in the Avenues Phase II. Fashionistas out there, please feel free to participate in our Credit Crunch Friendly Shopping Game. The More, the merrier!

Thanks for being a good sport and taking the challenge :D Now those pink shoes with the ruffles really are a find! They look similar to a couple of shoes I saw at Four recently and those were well past KD 100 :D bravo bravo! Can't wait to see the whole ensemble you have in mind ;)

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
