Exclusive: Introducing Les Nereides‏

I have been invited by Al Ostoura recently to preview their latest arrival by french accessories brand called: Les Nereides at their Lime Light boutique in the Avenues Phase II. I've always had a soft spot for whimsical jewelry, but what I saw that night was on a complete new level of whimsical. Founded in Nice-France in 1980 by Pascale and Enzo Amaddeo, Les Nereides offers a beautiful and distinguished selection of necklaces, bracelets, and earrings inspired by nature, culture, and fairytales. The handcrafted collection is quite reasonably priced too, the pieces range between approximately KD 15-KD 60. The brand also has a more affordable line, featured way below, called N2 line, which tends to be a tad funkier, it would definitely appeal to those who are looking for unique, fun and whimsy accessories. I went crazy over the pearl and snail inspired set shown here so I got the necklace with the matching earrings. And now after taking a closer look at my Les Nereides photos, I think I'm heading back there soon for a couple of pieces that missed my fashion radars.

Loved these floral charm.. you can add them to any gold pendant you have..

Loved these rosette decorated earrings... reminded me of Prada's jewelry

Les Nereides Alphabet Fleuri initial necklaces make a great gift idea!

An now let's take a look at the N2 line, loved this French patisseries inspired collection. It reminded me of Dolce&Gabbana's S/S 2012 veggie jewelry.

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
