Bleach Babe

The return of the bleached denim brought back memories of my dreadful fashion in the 80's. But now Balmain, J Brand, and other designers introduced a modern versions of the bleach streaked denim.

I know a lot of my family and friends would cringe at the thought of wearing this trend. But I would like to try it out, I won't be paying a hefty price for a pair of Balmain (and a micro-trend) that's for sure. And I don't like the acid-wash print on these featured Zara jeans. But if I find the right pair, in price and quality, I would wear the denim with a neutral solid cotton knitted loose top.

If you're interested in the featured bleached jeans, it's from Zara for KD 21.500.

Hi Connie,
this acid wash trend is really getting to you babe! I remember your older posts regarding the matter! :) I just think with the right items, a key 'trendy' look could be worked to look extremely chic. But some trends arriving in Kuwait just can't be trendy here!

Teeman, what kind of posts would you like to see regarding menswear? trends/new arrivals/hair?

Thank you for your recommendation. I'm not sure if I can cover the men's fashion as well. I'm pretty focused about women's. But it's def sth that I would consider in the future ;)

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
