www.womanthismonth.com October 2016 10 OCTOBER IN FOCUS news What’s on our radar this month? Diva Divine We’re more than a little excited by the arrival of the Diva by Sandra R range of handbags and clutches by former Miss Lebanon, Sandra Rizk, at Seventh Heaven in Al Aali Shopping Complex. Made in Lebanon, these are seriously pretty little pieces of eye- and arm-candy and we feel a little shopping trip coming on. The Mexican Dia De Muertos, 'Day of the Dead', festival comes to Bushido on Thursday, October 28, with DJ Ravin of Buddha Bar on the decks. This is Halloween with a Mexican flavour and the entire venue will be transformed into a spooktacular celebration, with dancers and the whole team dressed in super-spooky costumes. Being undead never felt so awesome! Entry is free for girls between 9pm and 10pm, BD10 thereafter. Dance Yourself Dizzy We’re very excited about Bahrain’s first Annual Zumbathon. Well-known international instructors Jessica Exposito and Clothilde will be leading the two-hour session alongside Zumba jammer Rellu Päts. The girls-only party gets underway at 7pm on Monday, September 26, at the Ramee Grand in Seef and it promises to be great fun at the same time as raising cash for a good cause. Tickets are BD15 and proceeds are going to the Dreams Society, which helps make sick children’s dreams come true. For information call 33 388-770. Gemstone Jewellery Festival Malabar Gold & Diamonds recreates the old world charm of rare precious stones and uncut diamonds in its new jewellery collection. And, to celebrate the launch, it is holding a festival until October 8 offering a range of special deals. Shoppers will get a gram of gold with every purchase of Era Uncut Diamond Jewellery worth BD260 or more and there’s also free jewellery with purchases from the Precia – Precious Gem Jewellery range of BD155 and above. Further offers include zero deductions on old gold in exchange and free making on eight gram gold coins. Paying Tribute International luxury brand, Amouage, has Can’t wait for the next edition of Trib Fest, Bahrain’s own live music festival. We’ll be taking our picnic blanket down to the Rugby Club on October 21 for a fun day of music from tribute acts covering the likes of Oasis, Freddie Mercury, Adele and Amy Winehouse. If you missed the last one, these events are great fun for the whole family and also give up-and-coming local acts a chance to get in front of a crowd. Run Along If, like us, you need a little inspiration to find fitness motivation, ART Rotana at Amwaj has launched the ART Running Club. It’s free for hotel guests and beach club members. For everyone else registration is BD5 for a year, which includes a shirt, and runs will start from the lobby at 5.30pm on Wednesdays and Saturdays and 9.15am on Fridays. Everyone’s welcome to join in for a chance to meet up with likeminded islanders and enjoy getting fit. Register two hours before at beach. [email protected] or call 16 000-111 for more information.
