Introducing Ush

There are so many GCC designers and fashion entrepreneurs doing us proud by launching  their dreams. And  I always extremely proud showcasing them on my blog. Abeer Al Suwaidi is no exception.  The Emirati designer who was brought up in the capital of U.A.E., Abu Dhabi, majored in Communication Technology but always wanted to do something to make her feel close to her roots and so Abeer started designing Abayas as a hobby. Over the years this hobby grew and  the culture of abayas shifted from just being a tradition to a fashion statement  and started showcasing the charisma and confidence of today’s women. 

Believing in her motto of “aiming above the mark to hit the mark”, Abeer Al Suwaidi has created her own place in the industry: Ush Boutique. With it's captivating interior design, Ush Boutique is a showcase of over 30 renowned  designers of abayas, caftans, evening dresses, and accessories. Ush's style focuses on traditional pieces with a modern twist. "We are the only boutique in the UAE that has that many abaya designers in one boutique. Our designers are not only from the UAE, but from various countries of the GCC." Expressed Abeer.

People today recognize her as an independent woman who has always been brave in whatever she has done and is today a mentor to a lot of young girls.

Ush Boutique is located in Jumaira Dubai, near al wasel road and opposite to Emirates NBD Bank.

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?

My Birkin... My Pride & Joy

Birkin ... Birkin .. Birkin ... you mesmerize me.. I'm so addicted to yoooooou . sitting galmorously in my closet is my hard earned blue Hermes Birkin Bag. To own it is like the ultimate fashionista dream. I look at it lovingly and think to myself " daaaamn ! you are one hell of a lucky girl! I shall protect you from the evil eye 'till the day I die ". My friend asked me once why am I so obsessed with my Birkin . I can list 100 reasons why. But just to be short & sweet, it's exclusive, expensive ( I saw a Birkin in vogue with diamonds on it's hardware. How much do you think it costs? ), it's hand crafted , it takes 2 whole weeks of dedication to produce one, and it's THE bag everyone in the fashion world admires. During a recent visit to The Comfort Shoe at Mariam Complex , I came across a Birkin look alike ( shown in the pictures above ). I have to admit, from afar the bag actually looked good. So I went in to check it out. And THANK GO...
