The Fashionable Zip Code

Don't be fooled into thinking that Saks Fifth Avenue is just another boring huge department store badly affected by the recession. Contrary to its online portal, Saks has a truly fascinating clothes collection providing a huge range of high quality goods by the biggest and the newest designers around. Saks was probably the only place in NYC where I found almost the entire Fall collection of Doo.ri, Erdem, and Marios Schwab. Not just few a few pieces here and there. Anyhow, take a look at their eye-catching window displays.

Of course, I wouldn't leave Saks without passing by its Shoe Salon 10022-SHOE. A Shoe salon sooo big that it has it's own zip code and postal stamps.Yes it is so big and fancy but for some reason it did not impress me that much.

Saks NYC is indeed and has always been impressive...

But Saks international (Riyadh, Dubai, Jeddah, and soon Kuwait I think) has tarnished that, not living-up to standards!

especially this year with the recession and all, I think SAKS has worked really hard to present it self as THE shopping destination for the uber-chic!

yes I agree.... their shoes are not all that. I find Neiman Marcus exclusive collections are way more desirable.

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...
