Channel Your Inner Betty Draper

I was walking around the Avenues the other day when I noticed the window display of Banana Republic had an announcement stating that they have received the Mad Men Collection. So I immediately went in and  inquired about this limited-edition line. Apparently, it was created in collaboration with the show's Emmy-winning Costume Designer Janie Bryant. This capsule collection offers a modern take on '60s style and features nearly 65 pieces of apparel and accessories for men and women.

I wasn't over;y excited about the women's collection but it did have some pieces that I liked like a chic leopard print trench coat and  high-waisted skirts (loved them!). The collection also included some tailored floral dresses, lots of light weight colored cardigans, silk tie-neck blouses, and statement accessories like print scarves and leopard print pump heels. They're more suitable for office wear. Check it out if you're in the area.  You can get a better look at the collection 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...
