Dear Confashion: A Necklace or a Hair Band?

I have received an e-mail from rep of a brand called Dauphines of New York hair accessories.  What I loved about this brand is that it offers a collection of adjustable headbands that serve dual purpose - functioning as both headband and necklace. Isn't that genius?! You can wear the headband 1920s flapper-style, or the common standard styel, hippie chic style a la Nicole Richie, and finally as a statement necklace.

The designs feature an adjustable band to allow for this interchangeable function, while also providing tailored comfort of fit. Prices range from $70-$225, and materials utilized are of finest quality (natural Agate, Citrine, Turquoise and Amethyst stones, Swarovski crystals, weightless metal chains, minimalist mesh, classic pearls and tortoise toggle, woven leather and suede).

Dauphines of New York debuted via a series of trunk shows at BERGDORF GOODMAN and Henri Bendel. Select styles will soon be available on www.shopbop.com. In addition, their hair chopsticks will be featured in ELLE Magazine's January 2011 Beauty "It List."

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
