Confashions From Kuwait's Interview in Bazaar



Another major milestone in my Confashion world...

Imagine you're clicking away on your PC on a boring morning, when suddenly one of Bazaar writers sends you an e-mail: "We would like to interview you for our next edition." I’m not sure what you would do but after I picked myself up off the floor, I said the first thing that came to mind: "Seriously?!!" But then I quickly shook off any doubts I had about being interviewed and realized that this actually sounds interesting (to me at least!) and I went ahead with it.

Now I know you're probably saying to yourself: "And I need to know this becaaaaause?". Well.. You have every right in the world to be indifferent about this post and the article. It's simply another one of my shameless self promotions that I wanted to share.

Special thanks to my interviewer and Bazaar for giving me this opportunity, and thanks to my fabulous readers. Hope to always keep you interested to read my blog. Oh and one more thing, not that I want to sound ungrateful but I just have to mention it. I wish you had my blog address spelled right. Nevertheless, Thank you for shedding light on Confashions. If (and that's a biiig IF) you're interested to read it, click on the above images. Or check out the November issue of Bazaar magazine.

Thank you very much :)
I think the rule of thumb here is to check unexpected stores for clothes that are suitable for curvaceous women. For example, MaxMara has a very nice selection of formal dresses. The dresses are shaped and cut in a way that hides any flaws. Look for A-line shaped skirts and dresses. Also, try Cacharel, their clothes are very easy to wear, gives you shape, and comfortable.

I am giving my consultancy services for free ;) That's a start I guess!

Thank you :)

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

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?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
