Museum of Everything

There I was at Museum of Everything in Selfridges snapping pictures away when suddenly I spotted a warning sign "No Photography. You will be fined 1,000 pounds"!!! Whaaa! I freaked out! I was about to loose 1,000 pounds of my shopping budget!! I immediately hid my camera inside my bag hoping that no one saw me. And started walking around the museum really fast expecting that any minute I'd be stopped by the security guards. Phew! That did not happen thankfully. And I did manage to have a look at the exhibition, which showcased over 400 drawings, paintings and sculptures from around the world by self-taught artists with developmental and physical disabilities.  I was really amazed by this fact and was glad to know that the people behind the museum were trying to connect the artists to the real world and give their work the proper presentation that they deserve. There were blown-up versions of some of the Museum's work on Selfridges' window displays along Oxford Street. So I safely settled for taking photos of the lovely window displays. Scroll down to view the beautiful creations.

Loved the shoes and the below shown dress with scribbles and doodles.

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...
