Reed-ing Aïshti


I was just walking around Aïshti boutique in the Avenues when suddenly I saw something that looked very familiar! Wait!! Gasp! Are those Reed handbags?! Yes they are! Just a few months ago they debuted on Net-a-Porter when I declared my eternal love to Reed’s practical and chic looking bag.

Aïshti  had two styles (featured here) of Reed Krakoff’s Boxer II Totes and already a couple of pieces flew off the shelves. I loved the tan-colored one with dark orange belt (it came in a smaller size but it sold out). Howeverrr I have to admit, they’re quite heavy, which kind of a turn-off to me especially that I’m known to stuff a lot of unnecessary things in my handbags (just in case…). Anyone, the large size is priced around KD 570 and the smaller one is priced around, if my memory doesn't fail me that is, KD 350.

Hehe ;P When it first came out, around mid November, i bought mine, the Boxer I suede tote in camel (there was blue, but a shade of blue I surprisingly didn't like)
it's price was 395 KD.
And yes, it's weight is an issue, but it's not a bag I'd take shopping, so, so far it's doing well for uni ;P
I love it <<3

What do you think of the Alviero Martini bags (with the map) ? I want to buy one but I'm hesitating. My sister thinks it's a "bad bag, a complete waste of money". So should I buy one or not?

Sorry its kindof a random question :p.

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
