Kuwait Celebrated Fashion's Night Out

If you haven't been to Al Othman and Boutique 4's celebration of Fashion's Night Out, you might want to make (or change) your plans for tonight. I passed by last night and I truly felt that I was a part of this global celebration. The vibes were positive, everyone was friendly, the place is so cool, and most importantly, there was a fabulous selection of clothes and accessories on sale, and the kind of stuff you won't find else where. one-off pieces by new and up-coming designers.

The hand/hanger in the fitting room spooked me a bit. But I loved it. The place is so uber-chic and funky.

And I also got my "Kuwait Celebrates Fashion's Night Out" t-shirt. And no, it's not one of those "one-size-fits-all" kind of t-shirts. It's actually of really good quality and it does come in different sizes. And the artwork on the t-shirt is done very beautifully.

The event is still on and it's held at 4 Boutique, Shuwaikh Industrial Area, opposite the BMW showroom. tonight they'll open from 8pm to 1am. And Saturday & Sunday from 11am to 3pm and 8pm to 1am. For any inquires, please call (+965) 2492-5444.

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.

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...

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?
