Sale-ing Villa Moda


Now that I covered the accessories section of Villa Moda’s Sale, today, we take a look at the clothes of some of the leading fashion houses at irresistibly steep discounts.  From the iconic prints of Prada and Richard Chai to the elegant and feminine styles of Dolce & Gabbana and YSL’s classy chic, these fabulous labels are loved for their rich heritage and unique style, so it’s time to make a fashion investment you'll love for years to come.  Let's start with one of my favorite picks, this beautiful Dolce & Gabbana cream colored lace dress from S/S 2009 collection works well in summer with a pair of black or nude colored sandals, and in winter with a pair of gray or black textured tights and a skinny patent leather belt.  Was KD 1,020 and now it is selling for around KD 300. 


Dries Van Noten white skirt and gold metallic print from S/S 2009 collection


Doo.ri black silk long sleeves top with one flat ruffle detail from the A/W 2009 collection


This la petite s***** strechy short sleeves one-button coat from A/W 2009 actually reminded me of Marni's iconic coats, very flattering and easy to wear


Another item that I really liked was this Yves Saint Laurent jumpsuit from S/S 2009 collection> this an item I would definitely wear this fall





Long and full skirts are topping the trends list for Fall 2010 for easy sophisticated look, so I have found one that fits the criteria, Prada's full and long skirt from S/S 2009 collection. 


And here's Prada silk top with a selt-tie bow of the same print which look smashing with another Fall's trend, the leggy pants (wide and long pants).


And finally, modern printed shift dress with a nod to the 6o's from Richard Chai's A/W 2009 collection

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?
