And the Oscar Goes to Al Othman

If you're a true fashionista, you would have already known by now that shopping wisely means taking advantage of what designers are offering in between seasons. In plain English, you'd better hunt for the "it" items of this year's Resort collections to stay ahead of the fashion savvy Kuwaiti crowd.

And what's better to venture into the resort season other than treating yourself with one lush cocktail evening frock by the ever-so-dreamy Oscar De La Renta?

Al Othman has already received Oscar De La Renta Resort Collection and each piece is blindly beautiful. I'm madly in love with the bright yellow puffy dress (shown on the 3rd picture) and the sleeveless yellow dress with white embroidered lace detail (first picture). Absolutely breathtaking. Here's some of what's in store now.




Al Othman is located at Mariam Complex, Salem AlMubarak St, Salmiya. For inquires, please call (+965) 575-4954.

Really?! it's a shame when you love sth so much and it ends up looking horrible on you!

It reminded me of the dress (also by Oscar) Carrie wore when she went out on a date with the russian guy...

You are having a laugh. That can't possibly be right. It sounds like a good bargain to me. I saw one in the shop windows at Ann Sommers new factory outlet near Jidda and that cost about $6 million. Either you've got your numbers jumbled or I am just fibbing. Confashions had better investigate and settle the matter once and for all. Interestingly enough, many shoppers from Kuwait visit the Faisaliah and Kingdom centre malls in Saudi for their annual requirement of boas.

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...
