Outfit of the Day

Another day, another caftan, and I ain't complaining! I love wearing caftans, in fact I have decided to wear them all year long to friends and family gatherings. They're so comfortable and easy to wear. Let's just hope wearing caftans constantly doesn't translate to my waist getting wider gradually. I'm desperately trying to control my dessert and sweets intake during the month of Ramadan. I hope I'll fit into my eid outfit! 

Anyways, allow me to introduce you to one of my many favorite caftans this month, my Jallabiya caftan. It's probably one of the heaviest I have ever worn, I'm not an expert but it feels like it's been designed using at least 10 meters of fabric! The good thing is that although it's heavy on the hanger, it's actually quite light when worn. I love the color combination used and how it sways while I walk, swaying is my new flavor these days. 


I chose to accessorize my Jallabiya caftan with a classic Chanel shoulder bag. I can't seem to remember when exactly I purchased the below Chanel quilted bag, however I strongly remember how I got sucked into buying it simply for the cuteness of its charms. Of course the owl is something I added to personalize the look. I bought the owl charm from some outdoor market/bazaar in Florence in Italy back in 2005. I'm glad that it's still in a good shape! I should wear this bag more often...

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
