Got My Mind Set on You

I got my mind set on you
But it's gonna take money
A whole lotta spending money
It's gonna take plenty of money
To do it right...

Remember this 80's hit song by George Harrison? I remember when I was really young, I used to play it on and on. Only very recently I found out that George Harrison was the lead guitarist of The Beatles! Probably one of his only solo songs? And all that time I thought her was an American singer. But that's not the point of this post. This song exactly describes how I feel about falling for 4 different bags at the same time. I spotted them at Givenchy boutique in 360 Mall and I couldn't decide which one to go for. And of course I wouldn't buy all of them at once. That would be ridiculous. Right? A current favorite is this Givenchy antigona bag. The drawbacks however are 1) its light shade, which means prone to stains, although I'm in love with its color-combo. 2) it was slightly on the heavy side, not sure if I'd have the strength to carry it around with all my junk inside. But I'm still in love with it.

So... back to the song I guess..

Its gonna take tiiiiime
A whole lot of precious time
It's gonna take patience and time...

Givenchy Nightingale Satchel bag is quite the classic and not as heavy as the antigona bag

Envelop clutch in one of my favorite shades, cobalt blue! So pretty...

Why am I seeing something Celine'ish in the first bag and the third one? Hmmm....guess the structure and the use of more than one color. At any rate, the first one is beeyooriful. Still, I myself am avoiding heavy bags like the plague now. You get so happy when you first buy them but after a few long outings you realize you need to go back to your lighter bags to avoid hurting your shoulder.

ps. good job with the verses! I do remember and love that song :)

These bags have a hold on you to make you inspired to write poetry because of the eagerness to own them. I laughed a bit when I read the introductory literary work but I was still impressed at how you're so passionate about your hobby in collecting beautiful bags and clothes.

Yeah the structure used and the way they integrated colored leather to the design is borderline Celine-ish.. probably that's why I fell for it! :P

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
