Sale Away With Harvey


My trip to Dubai wouldn't be complete without paying our dearest friend Harvey a friendly and guilt-free visit. Harvey Nichols was having a huge Summer sale as you may have already figured it out from the window display shown above. So I went out splurging on a belated birthday shopping spree, there's always an excuse to shop!, and I started picking through the racks of designer duds and bargain items. And here are my favorite finds:


I'm head over heels with this Richard Nicoll bright orangish sleeveless cocktail dress with a thick structured ribbon detail on the front. The dress's on discount and it's priced now for around KD 200.


The accessories section of Harvey on the ground floor had more buzz than the clothes section.

The gorgeous Loeffler Randall multi strap heels in brown leather would definitely take you from summer to fall.

These cute Lanvin flats are ideal for casual chic outings

Some items were not on sale like these Christian Louboutin heels and boots as they're from the pre-fall collection.


GASP! Another Pierre Hardy stunning creation!

Celestina and Christian Louboutin's clutches were up to 50% off. And on the below picture you can see some Balenciaga bags on 60% off.

Harvey Nichols is located within the Mall of the Emirates. For inquires, please call (+971) 4 4098888.

Connie-my heart aches for that dress! I can imagine a tan/messy loose waves and nude pumps.

The Doc- apparently there is a 'Nitya' located at Al Bustan complex (ground floor) however I believe that they are an outlet for several brands such as morgan de toi etc. Cool finds tho, our offices are upstairs and i'm always there on break. ;) hope that helps

I think it's also located at Marina Mall next to the Harley-Davidson store.

Thanks for sharing tidbits of your Dubai fashion expedition with us. It was an eye opener of sorts for people like us, who have grown up imagining Dubai to only be a watering hole of the Indian and the Russian underworlds and at a safe remove from the worlds of art, fashion, culture and sophistication.
On the contrary, it would appear the Chinese and the Russian prada prostitutes before them have indeed done much to upp Dubai's glam quotient up a notch. In this regard, head hunters and hiring consultants will pitch in here to say how difficult it is for them to scout for and retain Western expat talent in Kuwait due to the dry state of affairs here (you get the idea) and an almost palpable lack of fine dine options.On both counts Dubai beats Kuwait hands down.

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...

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.
