I Heart My: By The Fashion Network

Being surrounded by beauty and fashion offline and online always makes me wonder about pieces we treasure in our closets and wouldn't dare throw away. So I have decided to add a new feature on my blog titled I Heart My to explore THE one fashion item that you can't live without and will treasure forever. I'll be approaching inspiring and motivated people from the fashion world and blogesphere plus shed some light on why they do. And I'm pleased to start off with the fab fashionistas behind The Fashion Network.

The Fashion Network is a Dubai-based organization that organizes networking events specialized for the fashion industry, including offering emerging designers an opportunity to showcase their collections to press, buyers and potential clients. Their next step is the launching ‘Fashion Helps!’ an organization that will encourage fashion conscious individuals to be more involved with good causes and charity.

The Fashion Network recently hosted an exclusive networking event for online fashion media at Grosvenor House in Dubai, which I have unfortunately missed Guests had the privilege of exclusively viewing Fashion for a Cause photo shoot which bloggers took part in to raise awareness on different causes such as Breast Cancer, Animal Rights, Diabetes and Disability. So let's see the most loved fashion item by the founders of The Fashion Network.

Isidora Peric (founder): "I love this Marc Jacobs bag because the colors are perfect for next season and it compliments most of the pieces I already have in my closet. The gold embellishments really makes it one of a kind."

Zahra Lyla Pedram (co-founder): "Peep-toe heels are my wardrobe must have and this Alexander McQueen number is one of my favorites. The signature skull toughens the girly silhouette and just works well with any outfit. You can never go wrong with a McQueen!"

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
