Playing Dress Up with POCA & POCA

The lovely team behind POCA & POCA were kind enough to send me two pieces from their Autumn/Winter 2012 collection, one of which was the golden pretty peplum top which was featured on my blog as part of POCA & POCA giveaway, previous post here. And the other piece was a pair of soft half velvet half suede two-tone blue pants.

It was fun trying to incorporate the pieces into my wardrobe. First I paired the peplum top with my J.W. Anderson for Topshop paisley print quilted skirt and my trio bag from Céline, as shown in the photo above, and I completed the look with my Miu Miu velvet flats.

For the second look shown below, I wore the POCA & POCA blue pants with my bordeaux colored cashmere knitted top from COS, a pair of Kylie western suede shoes by Isabel Marant , and my oversized snakeskin Marni clutch. I had to roll-up the pants because they were kind of long on me, and I liked how they ended up looking relaxed and chic at the same time.

In the last look, I chose to pair my peplum top with a pair of Chloé wool-jersey cropped pants (in luv with the centre-front hem slit! Adds such a character to a basic black pair of pants!), my Nicholas Kirkwood heels (similar here), a wool necklace which I bought from the Arasta Bazaar in Istanbul earlier this year, and my faithful Chanel Baluchon bag.

POCA & POCA is a young and hip Polish brand established by founder and creative designer Karolina Gniewek. The brand is known to create feminine silhouettes perfect for everyday elegance. To get their latest updates, follow POCA & POCA on facebook here.

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
