Liberty of Kuwait


It seems that I have been living under a rock lately as just recently I’ve found out about Liberty of London fabrics being sold in Kuwait!!!  Kuwaiti store, Haifa Kaftans, is the sole distributor of  Liberty of London in Kuwait. And that's not all; Haifa Kaftans actually produces a line of kaftans made from Liberty silks and cottons, often combining both. The Liberty fabrics however are only sold at their Shuwaikh branch.  And did you know that Liberty has been producing fabrics and textiles since the 1800s?! Amazing!

I have major weakness towards liberty’s dainty floral and novelty prints. They just perk up my day. I have a couple of button down shirts, skirts, and dresses, all made using Liberty fabrics that I bought from Cacharel, Zadig & Voltaire, and other places that I don’t recall now.  And what I love about them is that each piece has a different print and color. And the beauty of these pieces is that I can wear them in a way that they don't particularly have to match.  And now I can add kaftans to my collection of Liberty! Woohoo!

Keep an eye on my blog, more excising news on Liberty of London and exclusive photos are coming your way.

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...

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.
