For Your Next Weekend Getaway



Finding a multi-brand boutique that stocks some of my favorite brands and it’s just a click (or an hour flight) away, is such a delightful discovery. I have just been introduced to Mimosa, a Bahrain-based multi-brand boutique that carries contemporary clothing and accessories brands from around the globe. 

Mimosa is the brainchild of half Bahraini and half Spanish entrepreneur Mariam Mahmood who has studied interior design and marketing but have always been passionate about  fashion. “My dad never wanted me to study fashion but instead something more diverse to have something to fall back on just in case I change my mind, After a year of being back home in Bahrain, I realized that we lacked trendy boutiques that carried young and trendy designers, especially those from the US”, said Mariam. And after Mariam’s successful first trip to NY fashion week in April 2006, her  first foray into retail was born.

Expect a supremely well-curated array of picks from labels like Notte by Marchesa, Rebecca Taylor, Alice+ Olivia, Robert rodriguez, Robbi and Nikki, Beyond vintage, Jay lane, Elizabeth Cole, Gerard Yosca, Yoana Baraschi, Tibi and many more.  Mimosa also has a vintage section which features rare and hard-to-fine pieces from Kenneth Jay Lane from 70's and 80's, Givenchy, and loads of others.

Mimosa Boutique can deliver to Kuwait and worldwide! And the best way for you to know what’s available now in-store is to view their items through their frequently updated facebook page.



Mimosa Boutique is located in Bahrain’s Al Aali Mall, 1st floor. For any inquiries, please call (+973) 1758-7883. Or you can send an e-mail to mimosabahrain@gmail.com.

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
