Chanel-ish at BCBG Arraya

OK, so we all love Coco Chanel and want to be dressed in Chanel from head to toes (hell, I don't even mind settling for a toe only!). But we can't always afford to buy the entire line. I mean I'm willing to spend on a Chanel bag, but not the clothes.*


While shopping around, I have noticed that we don't get to see a lot of Chanel inspired clothes. Bags? Yes and plenty of them, but not the clothes. So I was excited when I saw 2 Chanel inspired pieces at BCBG's store at Arraya Complex. The items are shown below. Oh, and yes, they had some Chanel inspired bags if you're interested. Also I have taken photos of 2 non-inspired Chanel items which I've found very appealing.


Boucle black jacket with 8 golden front buttons and black velvet ribbon detail. KD 118.





Black bubble shaped jacket with tiny front pockets and boucle and golden chain detail. KD 105.


And here are the 2 non-Chanel inspired items which can be worn under jackets and cardigans. the white top shown below is being sold for KD 26.



Black fine knitted top with white bib detail. KD 54.


*Mind you, I'm planning to buy a Chanel suit but only when I'm 50 years old with 5 kids.

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

Magical Mode

As anyone who regularly reads Confashions may know, there are some designers I’ve been obsessed with for quite some time: one is the genius Erdem , the other is Nicholas Kirkwood , and Pierre Hardy . And because their designs are somehow easily accessible online and offline, I had the pleasure of featuring some of their creations and showing them the love they deserve. That said, there is one designer I’ve been particularly smitten with for quite some time. He has always been on the top of my favorite designers list ever since I was introduced to his designs by my fabulous fellow fashionisto Adnan Z Manjal   a couple of years back : Saudi designer Mohammed Ashi . I always wished I featured him more. I couldn’t because his pieces are very exclusive and as far as I know not stocked anywhere here. This clearly isn't just another post on my obvious love for Mohammed Ashi’s designs or the quality of his clothes as I have done that previously. Ashi simply deserves his very own epic p...
