well, I need YOUR help, I got a red velvet classic jacket, and I am not sure what a "single-color" for skirt to match it with to give the jacket an edgy stylish look, excluding grey and black, any color suggestion?

Thanks in advance;)

There are a few styles you can work with:
Folk Boho Style
-Solk Blouses
-Studded belts
-Shawls
-Long Layered Accessories
-Wild printed silk blouse
Zara has many of these items or Gucci, they are totally in that wibe this season. On our site cover page you can see the example. (www.fashionista-style.com)
Edgy Look
Wear it with leather and same sort of silk blouse mentioned above.
Either pants or a pencil skirt. This is black but ill definately give you an edge and make you totally stylish (not for everyone though, need to courage:) )
Ofcourse it can also be worn with jeans to make it more all day and casual/chic.
Hope this helps you out.

I suggest a different, perhaps darker shade of red for the skirt.

Also navy.

As for the shirt, what Fashionista suggested with the silk blouse is nice.
Remember not to over accessorize, the velvet jacket will already pop. Maybe simple earings.
And a great pair of heels, mybe flashy or simple heels.

good tip azm:)
but i still wouldnt go for all red, maybe it could work, but you dont want to look like a walking tomato... The navy blue though would be nice!!! Again the sailor style is in aswell, so match it with a stipy blue and white cotton blouse and nice high waisted pants...but as azm shows you can wair it more than one way!

I agree with Fashionista, it will be too much if everything is red. Only a Dress is ok, but everything red, as in pants jacket is too much!

"I suggest a different, perhaps darker shade of red for the skirt."


Remember, the skirt not being velvet and still red already makes it look of a different shade. And the key is wearing a different hsade of red. Thus intentionally making it "un-match".
If done right, you won't be a tomato...
Maybe the Queen of Hearts ;-)

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?
