Introducing Ush

There are so many GCC designers and fashion entrepreneurs doing us proud by launching  their dreams. And  I always extremely proud showcasing them on my blog. Abeer Al Suwaidi is no exception.  The Emirati designer who was brought up in the capital of U.A.E., Abu Dhabi, majored in Communication Technology but always wanted to do something to make her feel close to her roots and so Abeer started designing Abayas as a hobby. Over the years this hobby grew and  the culture of abayas shifted from just being a tradition to a fashion statement  and started showcasing the charisma and confidence of today’s women. 

Believing in her motto of “aiming above the mark to hit the mark”, Abeer Al Suwaidi has created her own place in the industry: Ush Boutique. With it's captivating interior design, Ush Boutique is a showcase of over 30 renowned  designers of abayas, caftans, evening dresses, and accessories. Ush's style focuses on traditional pieces with a modern twist. "We are the only boutique in the UAE that has that many abaya designers in one boutique. Our designers are not only from the UAE, but from various countries of the GCC." Expressed Abeer.

People today recognize her as an independent woman who has always been brave in whatever she has done and is today a mentor to a lot of young girls.

Ush Boutique is located in Jumaira Dubai, near al wasel road and opposite to Emirates NBD Bank.

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
