ARABIAN PRINCESS FOR THE DAY - EID DAY 1

Hello Luvies,

Today's post name is thanks to 3 year old Sofia who ran up to me saying "princesa!" and gave me a big hug, cutest little girl ever! So if you've been following me on instagram which you should be if you're not @reembuqaisrivera :) You'd have already seen my outfit's for all 3 days of eid, but this post has more pics and ofcourse the details!

I wore two pieces from my Resort 2014 collection: The beautiful purple linen cropped top with sheer tulle cutout on the back and purple tulle skirt. For accessories I went with a gold BCBGMaxazria headpiece and a gold necklace from Forever 21 with some gold bracelets.

Cute Sofia who ended up wearing her crown and wand so she can look like a princess too :)

STYLING AT SAKS FIFTH AVENUE

Hello Luvies,

This Sunday I as well as fellow bloggers were invited by Saks Fifth Avenue to preview the new Fall/Winter Collections that have arrived in store, I was also invited to style a mannequin that was to be displayed in the store, how fun! Upon arriving at the event I was greeted by the saks team and offered some refreshments and canapés. I was then told to partner up with a fellow blogger to style a mannequin, and since I did so well with Georgina (Blonde in Bahrain) during Bahrain's Top Stylist, I partnered up with her for this! It was a fun time as Georgina was filming for MyBahrain, so make sure you check out the video next week, you'll probably see me rummaging through racks and such.

We decided to dress our mannequin in plum tailored pants by The Row, beigey pink blouse and heels by Alexander McQueen, a beautiful blue bejeweled gold statement necklace by Mawi London, a floral Valentino scarf and a YSL cross-body bag. We had different options in mind as you'll see from the photos below but we finalized on this one, It's an elegant, chic ensemble for the modern yet stylish woman.

This was kinda our first ensemble, we didn't think it was working out too well, although I LOVE the Jacket!

This is our final ensemble :)

Blouse: Alexander McQueen - Statement Necklace: Mawi London - Scarf: Valentino

Cross-body bag: YSL

Tailored Pants: The Row - Heels: Alexander McQueen

Loved how our names were printed and placed by the mannequins! =D

Group Shot!

We were each given goody bags with fabulous cosmetics and such and a hand written note! Perfection :)

And there you have it, a fun night of fashion and styling!

A SUCCESSFUL RAMADAN CHARITY EVENT

Hello Luvies,

A week ago I was invited to attend Al Reem Charity event. Al Reem Charity is a charity started by two wonderful bahraini girls (Reem and Maryam) who wanted to help out and give back to families in need. Every year they host an exhibition with a percentage of the proceeds personally given to families in need. It was a full event with many different local brands from clothes to accessories to food. Check out the video below about Al Reem Charity and photos from the event including my outfit for the night :)

Soriginal had some cool clutches and canvas totes 

I was excited to finally see the work of the talented Razan Al Azzouni! I mean I see her stuff on instagram all the time but it was nice to feel the fabrics and look through the racks, her work is amazing! 

And my outfit: BLOUSE - China DRESS & BODY CHAIN - Dubai

Hope you enjoyed the post!
