*Navratan- Navratna Ring:

It is said or believed that the navratna has the ability "to help the wearer benefit from the powerful energies emitted from each of the nine planets in the Indian astrological system. Navaratna (from the sanskri
t nava meaning "nine" and ratna which means"gem") refers specifically to the synergistic combination of these nine gemstones. When worn together they help deliver the benefits of all the nine planetary gemstones simultaneously, acting as a protective talisman offering the benefits of health, happiness and prosperity.

Yes! Get the chance to win a Navratna Ring or gift vouchers by Mukhi Sisters- how? by filling in applications to enter the draw at Casper and Gambini's (you can ask your waiter for the application forms) which C&G branches?

Or at the Mukhi Sisters store at the Beirut Souks.




This is one of the collaborations that we will never forget. We are SO happy and proud of being on board with Casper and Gambini's. ( undoubtedly role models to us, it goes without saying about how professional and welcoming they are)

It is great to have neighbours like them at the Beirut Souks!

Big Hug from the sisters to the C&G team and especially to you Davina :)

Sunset at Iris.

Going to Iris should be on your things-to-do-in-beirut-list.

Ok! So we're kind of cheating because it's not at the Beirut Souks but it's like 5 minutes away-They are sooooo welcoming and the atmosphere over there is very chilled, you can check out there Facebook page for more info!

Being there at sunset and spotting some Mukhi Sisters jewelry was the cherry on top ( well, the umbrella on top in this case) after a hard day at work. There's also a live band 3 times per week!

ROOM ONE at The Beirut Souks!

My friend was looking for specific t-shirts the other day. Therefore, I dedicate this post to her!!

I found these at ROOM ONE, located facing Zara Home at The Beirut Souks. And I thought they're worth a shot. I personally like the material, soft and not super tight... easy to wear and you're good to go!!

ROOM ONE
I like this store because the buyer has a consistent style -a very Italian one- The collections are simple and feminine.




Check out the belts starting 100$..


And you could also add some Attitude:

Gloriette not just any banquette!

This first post is dedicated to Gloriette. Because we can now answer the question " Who is the artist behind that unusual and captivating bench?" 


Gloriette is a recreation of "the famous Spaghetti Bench by Pablo Reinoso" using metal. And today almost every tourist or Beirut Souks visitor has taken a picture of Gloriette.


Gloriette is becoming a hang out place, a place where couples meet and children play (when the security guards aren't looking:P). 


She is one of the jewels of the Gold Souks.
