Almost Genesis

If you’ve been following blogs and celebs lately, you’d probably spotted the Be&D Genesis bag being carried by BryanBoy, Olivia Palermo, and Mena Suvari. And if you want to inspect it up close and personal (well almost) then check out Shoebox NY. I’ve found an almost identical to the Genesis bag but with minor additions by the same brand Be&D. It’s called Be&D Woodstock Portfolio Messenger Bag. The bag has whip stitched detailing and has very soft leather, which makes it extremely lightweight. The bag is quite roomy and I kind of wish it did not have the studded detail, but I liked the bag part. However, I LOVED the shoes more. The ballet flats have a studded strap which can be worn in two ways. I prefer putting the strap behind my feet. And I liked the small studs covering the lavender-ish cross-strap sandals.

Lanvin has a selection of bulky chain strap bags. Also Jimmy Choo has Cristina pleated leather bag with semi-bluky chain straps. Another option would be Marc Jacobs here: http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/60972
And Stella McCartney here: http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/78603 and http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/78604

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.
