Affordable Accessories

Last season I was inspired by fashion runway and icons and their facination with fur stoles, colored or natural, worn over the shoulder a la Prada style or hung on bags a la Olsens style. So I started searching for a faux fur stole key chain.to hang it on my oversized bag, kind of like Louis Vuitton's S/S 2010 handbags. I couldn't find any, and with time I lost interest. And to my surprise, the other day while I was shopping at H&M. I have found 3 different styles of the faux fur key chains (shown above), and their price range between KD 1 - KD 1.500! BUT I didn't like the quality at all. They weren't soft at all. but hey! that should be expected since they're priced so cheap!

I think this season H&M has the coolest accessories on High Street boutiques level. Check out this set of rings shaped as a bunny, a fox, and some tree branches.

Multi-chain intertwined necklace

These pair of tassle earrings are so on-trend. I've been lusting over Gwyneth Paltrow's hot pink tassel earrings which were seen worn by the chic acctress recently. I can't seem to find a photo of her online wearing them.

This green soft leather bag with black straps from Zara looks like a Marni bag! Price tag? KD 45.500

I liked this mustard colored oversized leather clutch from Zara. I would like smashin' with denim-on-denim looks. And it has a hint of Celine. Price tag? KD 29.500.

I know which photo you're referring to ;) But that's not the one. I swear I saw her photo very recently wearing a beige top I think and wearing hot pink tassel earrings that fell to her shoulders... I'll just need to search more for it!

But thanks for sharing ;)

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
