Keeping Up with the Kuwaitis

Keeping up with the Kuwaitis is one eye-catching headline used on the cover of Harper's Bazaar Arabia (January's issue).  It was nice to see Kuwait's fashion pack featured on its pages, starting with the glamorous owners of Octium Boutique, the Bianca Jaggeresque/boho-chic fashionista rocking the Cavalli kaftan, the fashionisto with the oversized Birkin, and more! They have also featured a photo of Queen Rania when she attended a Charity Gala Dinner in Kuwait a few weeks ago.  I wish they had featured the ladies who attended that same event. One specifially made my best dressed list of the night, she had her hair tied in a cute high bun and was wearing the statement heels of the Fall season: YSL's Mohawk heels. (Girl if you're reading this you were right on-trend head to toe!).

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
