A Walk Through AlOthman

I've been meaning to post about AlOthman's newly relocated boutique but have been quite busy lately. Today I have finally managed to take photos of the new boutique, which is still located at Maryam Complex, but now it's where Guess and The Basement (the huge kids store) used to be. The space is mega huge! It officially looks like a luxury department store. Every category of clothing and accessories is neatly grouped and displayed in a dedicated area. My favorite section has to be the accessories area of course, I could easily spend hours trying on shoes and custom jewelry. 

Designed by talented Kuwaiti Architect Nesef Al Nesef, the store's interior and space is ultra modern and classy. There seemed to be literally thousands of lights, because the place looked so bright with a luminous sparkle. The first thing you see when you come in is the drool-worthy mind blowing Fur section, which I'll thoroughly check out when the budget allows. I do have other shopping priorities you know. And then to the left is the contemporary collection, where you can find casual chic pieces by brands such as Elizabeth and James, Helmut Lang, Camilla and Marc, Isabel Marant... etc. Followed by the high-end section where you will find brands such as Oscar de la Renta, Erdem, Balmain, Victoria Beckham and more. And then there is a dedicated and secluded area for eveningwear, a Bridal Salon, a small lounge area with complimentary drinks and treats, and a whole section of homeware by the beautiful and functional line ecru. I'll leave now to skim through the images I have taken of the brand-new AlOthman Boutique and some of my favorite picks.

In love with the mixed prints and patterns of ecru

Resort already?! Sandals by Oscar de la Renta

More resort pieces from Oscar de la Renta

One of the purchases I have made were these budget-friendly loafers by Pretty Loafers with exotic skin effect, if my memory serves me right, they were around KD 60.

Aperlai flats with a cute pompom

Rachel Zoe jewelry

Edie Parker clutch, loving the mother-of-pearl detail

I like the fact that the boutique now has a private prayer room complete with beautifully packaged thoub cases.

A glimpse of the Bridal Salon

Would you like to have some cake while they wrap your purchases? Yum!

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
