Exclusive: Sneak Preview of From Coco with Love

I had the pleasure to meet the girls behind From Coco with Love, who started a business in selling vintage and rare Chanel jewelry.

The girls were beyond lovely, elegantly accessorized in Chanel, bien sur! They have established their business a little over a year ago and I have found it hard to believe that it hasn’t been around longer. Because the way they described the pieces so passionately and in detail, you would have easily thought that they’ve been in the business for at least 5 years.  They have scouted Europe’s brokers, vintage resellers, and vintage shops and have individually examined and handpicked the pieces of their vintage collection, each works perfectly well in today’s modern world. I have taken photos of some of my favorite pieces; I know they’re a lot!  But the pieces were so exquisite that I couldn’t settle for two or three photos!!! So enjoy...

Their exhibition will take place tomorrow only Wednesday April 27, 2011 at La Blanche Gallery in Mishref, block 4, street 2, House 6.  From 4 pm – 9pm. For inquiries please contact: Fromcocowithlove@live.com or  follow From Coco with Love on twitter, facebook page, and facebook group.

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
