Glam Your Evening

There are girls who start a “one-season-fashion-line” just because, and then there are girls who start a FASHION LINE with passion. Jenan Al-Fares is a Kuwaiti designer with a penchant for color, a ton of energy, and no shortage of creativity. She’s not new to the local fashion scene that’s for sure. In the past years, she has launched her line Jenan, hosted many exhibitions, and has her own showroom. And I admit, I haven’t been to any of them, but I have seen a few notable pieces on my friends. But today, thanks to the new-age of marketing using the facebook, I was able to view her latest glamorous eveningwear collection online. Mind you, I didn’t inspect the gowns up-close and personal but from what I’ve seen in the photos, I was completely impressed. There seems to be attention to detail and I loved how she added unexpected soft ruffles and ruching to the designs. In brief, the collection had a slightly 80’s/40’s feel, peppered with flirty details. Here are some of my favorite designs.

Jenan showroom is located in Jabrya block 1a, Street 6, bldg 24, first floor. You can contact Jenan at (+965) 66128238 or send an e-mail to jenanalfaris@gmail.com.

Well, i'm gonna go completely blunt regarding what I saw..
I've purchased before custom made items and garments and dresses made by kuwaiti designers but i was utterly dissapointed by what I saw 2day ..
the finishing was terrible , the sewing mark were all over and the fabrics were abused !
I'm sorry jenan u've got really good idea's but not the cleanest finish..
But the pictures sure look more amazing than the real thing..

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?

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.
