Giles Deacon Gold Collection at New Look Avenues

If you thought you could never afford to buy Giles's fabulous creations, think again. Giles Deacon collaborated with New Look to offer a collection called "Gold", four times a year. And this week Gold by Giles collection hit New Look shop located on the 1st floor of the Avenues.

I was surprised that there was no big advertising campaigns to promote Giles collection through out the streets of Kuwait. It's so unlikely of Al-Shaya'a Group to do that. Maybe they thought that Giles is unpopular? (gasp!). Anyways, here are some items of the collection displayed in store now.





Black clutch with crystals KD 12



Stripped sandals KD22


Bracelets with golden studs KD 8 each


Black long t-shirt with metallic stripes KD 10.500



Stripped black & white skirt KD 15



Blue and printed pleated blouse KD 17 each



I heart Giles. Remember my previous post on the biker chic Giles for Mulberry bags? And how about that to-die-for Giles evening dress from Alothman? As much as I heart Giles, his New Look collection at Avenues Kuwait didn't do it for me. Well, except for his big bracelets with golden studs. It looked a bit cheap and redundant. And most of his pieces which I saw in magazines are not available yet. A big disappointment I know. But Maybe it will get better? No?


Giles Deacon designed 35-piece collection of skinny jeans, sequined cotton mini dresses, tulip hemmed skirts, silk tunics with vivid prints, fully lined sateen coats, and some of the most fabulous accessories, such as huge bracelets, tiger necklaces, diamante brooches and oversized sunglasses. Drew Barrymore is the face of Gold by Giles Deacon. And you can see her and his collection by clicking here. I liked all the stuff Drew wore. What do you think?

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...

My Birkin... My Pride & Joy

Birkin ... Birkin .. Birkin ... you mesmerize me.. I'm so addicted to yoooooou . sitting galmorously in my closet is my hard earned blue Hermes Birkin Bag. To own it is like the ultimate fashionista dream. I look at it lovingly and think to myself " daaaamn ! you are one hell of a lucky girl! I shall protect you from the evil eye 'till the day I die ". My friend asked me once why am I so obsessed with my Birkin . I can list 100 reasons why. But just to be short & sweet, it's exclusive, expensive ( I saw a Birkin in vogue with diamonds on it's hardware. How much do you think it costs? ), it's hand crafted , it takes 2 whole weeks of dedication to produce one, and it's THE bag everyone in the fashion world admires. During a recent visit to The Comfort Shoe at Mariam Complex , I came across a Birkin look alike ( shown in the pictures above ). I have to admit, from afar the bag actually looked good. So I went in to check it out. And THANK GO...
