Ok you guys! I can't believe I actually survived today! It was COMPLETE & UTTER CHAOS! Imagine a pack of wolves tearing through its prey! Yeah, kinda like that! With the Versace for H&M collection being the prey in this analogy. Why so graphic?! BECAUSE IT WAS CRAZY, actually above & beyond crazy! Such a friggin GREAT rush! I enjoyed every single second of it! If you were there, you know exactly what I mean & if you weren't that's ok there's always the next collaboration (so don't forget to stay tuned for ma next collab-competition). Here are a couple of pictures taken by my dear friend Tania (I swear to you she's God sent, what other friend would wake up at 6 am just to tag along & help me out). They might be shaky because we were rushed & pushed & shoved & almost trampled on (so trying to take pictures of the action & shop was quite a difficult task, exhausting actually).
To make matters worse I made her walk over to the mall. Me? Evil? NOOO! I'm glad we didn't take our cars because I heard it was chaos trying to park & make it in time for the launch
This was how empty the mall was! Kinda like a ghost town or mall in this case
This was the queue outside
Right as the action was starting! I'm glad it was organised & controlled enough (thanks to PBG PR for having a casuality free event)
The rush down the escalators
This blurr of people was because everyone was just moving super fast!
The staff running around trying to keep up & stay organised
There must have been over 20 people in a single square meter (Ok, slight exaggeration here but it sure felt like that. I was shell shocked the first few minutes & only snapped out of it when Tania yelled 'YELLA MOVE'! That's how crazy it was!
The staff trying to put everything back in place & help people find what they were looking for!
No free changing room??? FINE I'll just try everything out here!
The queue for the changing rooms (I've never stood in a line so much in my life but when you're there you don't even realise that in a hour time period you queued almost 3 times already)
Bonding with a GREAT mother who was helping her daughter out (she promised me a leather biker jacket that of course I never got-the competitive bartering over that beautiful studded jacket was intense)
Louise (one of my competition winners) & I queueing up to pay! Yep, I went back to the 90's woop woop!
It felt like I was a celebrity for a second there! I was looking at Louise like that because this photographer was telling her to do something with her hair... I still have NO clue what he wanted her to do
Trying to get maself organised! Emphasis on trying!
I hope I kinda gave you a glimpse into this launch to top all launches! I absolutely enjoyed every single second of it & CAN NOT wait till the next one! Huge thank you's to all who organised at BPG PR & for Al Shaya Group for once again giving this Bahraini blogger one of the greatest experiences of my life!
xoxo ma PFFers,
P.S. My lovely Bahraini spies spotted empty rails & shelves at Bahrain's Versace for H&M launch! & some serious bartering in the changing rooms! People apparently were waiting right outside for left overs! This collaboration has caused a serious LUST complexity in us all!
P.P.S. Lust List of the Day: Net-a-porter's party season dresses are friggin GORGEOUS! Absolutely love love it! Hope you do too!!!
P.P.P.S. Song of the Day: Take Care by Drake ft Rihanna (Thanks to my lovely 't.' for introducing to this song! I find myself get more & more hooked on Riri & her fab collaborations! & I'm glad I finally got to listen to a Drake song & like it from the get go-I know! But I'm being honest here. Do you like it too? Would like to hear back from ya)
