Dar il Salhiya.. A New Gallery For Your Exhibitions

If Juicy Couture's store had a Kuwaiti version of it, it would be pretty much like "Dar il Salhiya". No, I'm not referring to the tracksuits. I'm referring to the interior design of the store. Dar il Salhiya is the latest addition to galleries which you can rent at if you wish to have an exhibition. It's very similar to Bait Badra or Villa Karizma in concept.


Located next to Salhiya Complex where Sari House used to be, Dar il Salhiya is divided into 6 sections available for rent. One of the sections has been specifically designed for accessories. And one of the other sections has a dedicated fitting room. The prices of the rent is reasonable, for instance, The accessories section would cost KD 40 per day. The interior is nice but I felt it was a bit gloomy for a gallery. But I like it's location, at least it's close to the underground parking opposite to Salhiya Complex. Here are some photos of the place.






I loved this girly pink glass & wood cabinet but unfortunately, it was not for sale. It's part of the interior. If you're interested to rent at Dar il Salhiya, you can call them at (+965) 2406001.

Dar Salhiya looks very not-so proper for its ground floor location inside of a dilapidated 60s era building - one of several still haunting a mostly fashion forward Kuwait City.

Dar il Salhiya is very chic but wait till you've visited "Libido -The Gallery", in Rawda. Man, I tell you the place is something else : a rare marriage between urban bohemia and Majlis al umma sophistication making it a most atmospheric space to be in;this side of the Gulf.
All you lounge lizards go check out their underground lounge bar & Turkish hammam

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...

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

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?
