Colors shop of Painted Stuff

Stylistit — Sun, 10 Apr 2011 06:55:23 +0000

Colors is an shop at Dizengof Center which sells unique air brushed items.

There are lots of fun things in the shop like painted guitars, handbags, shoes (especially All Stars) and even toilet seats. There are also great painted clothes like T-shirts (of course), jeans and dresses.

I like the dresses the most.

Where can I get a formal dress for an event?

Stylistit — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 09:56:33 +0000

This is a question that I get all of the time so I decided to answer in here for all to see.

The best place to go for the biggest selection of formal or event dresses in Israel is Diezengoff St. in Tel Aviv.
Younger, hipper designers are in the area around Gan Hahashmal in Tel Aviv.

If you want to go in the other direction to Haifa there are some dress shops along the road that goes from Horev to the Dan Hotels.

Ben Yishai Shoes

Stylistit — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 16:40:52 +0000

I have been looking to buy a pair of boots, and the boots I am looking to buy are Ben Yishai boots.

In Israel Ben Yishai Shoes are best known for their comfort and quality. They are also known for their unique style, though it sometimes borders on odd. Also, Ben Yishai have a bigger size range than most shoe manufactures, especially for large size shoes. They are not known for being cheap.
Since I have started this blog, I have gotten many e-mails asking where one can buy Ben-Yishai shoes in Israel and outside of it. The fact is that Ben Yishai shoes are sought after but not that easy to find. Also, there does not seem to be an English sight for Ben Yishai shoes.
Ben Yishai shoes can usually be found in Gazith shoe shops and Be-Unique shops, but most are spread around, or hiding as it seems, in quality shoe shops all over Israel.

Here is a list of some of the shoe shops in Israel where you can find Ben Yishai shoes:

Michal Negrin Fashion Gallery in Neve Tzedek Tel Aviv

Stylistit — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 08:39:59 +0000

Michal Negrin recently opened a new concept stop of her designs in Tel Aviv. This shop named the Michal Negrin Fashion Gallery is housed in a fantastic building dating from 19^th century, in the new Neve Tzedek shopping area in Tel Aviv. The styling of the new shop is in keeping with Michal Negrins newer designs, which are on display in the shop.

A visit to the Neve Tzedek is a great way to pass a fun few hours and the new shopping area including Michal Negrins new shop is quite an experience in itself, whether you buy anything or are just there to browse.

I mean, really, is this not the best in Israeli jewelry shopping?

Ripped jeans fashion trend is here

Stylistit — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 03:01:54 +0000

Remember when I wrote about the faded jeans trend in the beginning of summer and forsaw that ripped jeans are not far off? Well, faded and ripped jeans are here.

I’ve spotted the very first of the ripped jeans trend in Haifa.

Here are pictures of the anticipated ripped jeans at the Grand Kenyon mall.

I have to admit I am not thrilled at this fashion trend. I still have bad memories of this overused and abused trend from the 90′s.

The Dreidal shop in Old City Caesarea

Stylistit — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 11:43:08 +0000

Since Hanukkah is nearly here I think this is a great time to post about Eran Grebler’s dreidal house in the Old City of Caesarea. The dreidal house is a shop and showroom displaying Eran’s ceramic dreidal and other works. Saying that I should mention that many of the dreidals in the shop are more tops than dreidals. Dradals have the נ,ג,ה,פ.ש Hebrew letters on then and many of the items in the shop do not. They are more enchanting spinning objects then dreidals, but there are also many actual dreidals there. The crativity of the dreidals in this shop are amazing. Actually most of the dreidals would be better describes as tops than are more dreidals, but all are special and inspiring. While many of the items in this shop do resemble tops and dreydals some actually take some time to figure out what you are looking at. I call there sci-fi dreidals as they look like models of the solar system. He also makes ceramic Hanukkah Menorahs (Hanukiot), chess sets, Seder plates and Mezzuzas. Anyway, Hanukkah is a great time to visit Caesarea, and if you do, you should defiantly drop in and visit this shop. And I cannot think of a better Hanukkah present.

Roche Bobois collections in Israel

Stylistit — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 08:20:47 +0000

We don’t often get to see luxury furnishings around here so this is a great to see and maybe even purchase something of luxury.

Pitaro Hecht, the exclusive sellers of RocheBobois luxury home items in Israel are having an eight day sale between Dec. 11-18.

Three Roche Bobois collections will be on display:

Les Contemporarains – contemporary designs

Les Voyages – eclectic designs inspires by Asian and African styles.

Les Provincilas – classic European designs adjusted for modern living.

The Pitaro Hecht shop and showroom is located in Hertelia Pituach on Medinat Hayehudim street. The website does not work very well, which is a shame especially for such an upmarket brand, but a visit to the showroom is an good experience.

The Roche Bobois site on the other hand is wonderful and very inspirational. It can provide hours of web-window-shopping pleasure.
