Next Destination? Turkey


First let me start by saying that this is not just another promotional post for a travel agency. If it wasn’t for this agency's exclusive and unparalleled services that are beyond your typical agency, I wouldn’t have featured them here. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Acasia Travels. And here’s what’s special about them and why I can’t wait to visit Turkey next time I travel:

  • Acasia Travels‏ offer complimentary CIP greeting which means that you will be greeted at the gate and be fast-tracked through special customs and passport control. That way, you'll feel like a VIP from arrival to departure.
  • They’ll let you stay at Ajia Hotel, a historic mansion on the Bosphorus converted into a boutique hotel (1st photo). The rooms have a full view of the Bosphorus and are stocked with Acqua di Parma toiletries. With its free private boat service, Istinye Park, Istanbul's most glamorous shopping mall/think Grand Bazaar meets Rodeo Drive, is only a 5 minute boat ride away.
     
  • At Istinye Park, Beymen* (Turkey’s version of Barney’s or Villa Moda) can organize a private fashion show of the season's collection just for YOU.
     
  • Acasia Travels‏ can also organize private sales of the below Turkish designers in the convenience of YOUR rooms. Designers such as Cashmere in Love, Oye swimwear, Misela bags, and Kismet jewellery.
     
  • Enjoy personal shopping services. In fact, their personal shopper was featured in Vogue Turkey for her quirky cool style.
     
  • Get 24/7 concierge service which ranges from booking a restaurant to organizing a meeting with the most sought after wedding planners.
Need another reason to visit Turkey? I have 10 words for you: Harvey Nichols and Hussein Chalayan's exhibition at Istanbul Modern Art Museum. For more info, visit Acasia Travels‏ site by clicking here.

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...

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.
