The Aftermath

This post is dedicated to those who haven't been to H&M's store at the Avenues to see the Jimmy Choo's collaboration collection. In the first photo you can see that the plastic barbie-pink clutches didn't sell well and I'm not surprised.

Almost all clothes were available in most sizes. The one item that first sold out was the mesh vest top.

From the looks of the stacked cobalt blue shoe boxes, it seems that the shoes didn't sell well either.

The collection was very disappointing, the adds gave much higher expectations!

I was planning on going mostly for the shoes but decided against it at the last minute, maybe I'll pass by later.
Really loved the Promos but when I saw them on display last week I was disappointed

I went to the VIP event on Thursday morning and it was a ma house!!! All the women in the store came out with huge shopping bags... I think a lot of the good stuff ran out. I bought 2 pairs of stilletos, the sequins tuxedo jacket, and a bracelet. The collection was bit disappointing at all... You ladies just got there too late.

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).

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
