Chain Reaction

Noticed a trend in shoes while shopping around K-town all from Fall 2010 collections and all inspired by Chanel's classic chain strap. Let’s start from top (and my favorite): Chloe’s T-chain strap flats in very soft leather and peep-two heels both available at Scarpe boutique in the Avenues. And next we have peep-toe strappy heels decorated not only in leather chains but also pearl from Moschino’s previous collection (I could have sworn that those were Chanel!)... All looked pretty but for some reason the Chloe ones are not on sale... Hurry hurry chop-chop!! Almost all retailer online and offline are on sale! And we want a proper 50%-60% sale not a stingy 15% or 20% kind of sale! Thank you.

Thank you for your request!!!!
For some weird reason Chloe and its group (in Kuwait) never follow the worldwide sale pattern, they always stay at 20% max and in mid of the next season they do their 50%, then they wonder why so much stock!!!

I couldn't agree more. I think retailers in Kuwait should follow the international retailer especially with the boom of online shopping and forward mailing addresses.

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.
