LFW: Fiona Paxton

You might be familiar with the name Fiona Paxton. Her designs are stocked in a lot of retailers such as Goji Boutique, Henri Bendel NYC, Harvey Nichols Dubai, Depeche Mode Beirut, Per Lei Couture Doha and more.

I saw her work during London Fashion Week and her multi-layer effect golden necklace from her S/S 2013 collection (shown in the first photo) caught my attention. It would look lovely paired with a caftan or an-all-black ensemble. Her other necklace (shown second here), called the Yasuko necklace, is from her S/S 2012 collection. The colors and the use of different textures, that cute little fluorescent plexi thing, just summed up last summer's trends. I'd wear it for any Summer for that matter.

After completing her training at the Royal College of Art in Textile Design, Fiona Paxton has designed prints and embroideries for a several of fashion brands including Michiko Koshino, Chloe, Armani and Whistles. She then moved on to launch her own line of distinctive hand beaded and embroidered accessories.

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
