And a little Bit of Window Shopping



Going back to my little window shopping excursions in London.. I have found some fab things worth featuring. Let’s start with Chanel. First,   I hate Chanel’s Coco Cocoon bags. I don’t get what the fuss is all about. Nevertheless, I still found the window display cool enough to feature here.  





“French/London Sole-ers” stay away from these Versace’s funky platform heels. They require skills and poise that only high heel pros can master after yeeears of practice.



Sigh.. Prada's Summer collection.. What’s not to love… We miss you here in Kuwait!


I feel that this gorgeous and elegantly crafted Bottega Veneta’s crocodile tote a true fashion classic with its shape and practical color. Loves it.



Luella had the saddest window display I have ever seen! It had “Last Chance to say Goodby” displayed on the window. So sad! I always liked Luella. Remember how popular the Gisele bag was?! I still have mine. Stored neatly in one of my “To-be-Vintage” plastic boxes. 


Browns Boutique were celebrating their 40th year anniversary so it was a treat to view and buy some pieces of their 40th Anniversary “Future Collectibles” Collection. 


And I had to pass by Browns’s Labels for Less for some bargain hunting. Unfortunately, It wasn’t a successful one.

The brand was sadly forced out of business due to liquidity issues during the recession days and one of its main investors backed out. You can read all about it here: http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/fashion/article-23769153-how-luella-bartley-fell-from-planet-fashion.do

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
