Dolcissimo... The Art of Chocolate

I have no doubt that by now, and as Valentine’s Day approaches, you have probably seen at least a dozen other assortments of Valentine's inspired chocolate boxes. But here's one that I'm sure will make the top of any chocoholics favorite list. Introducing Dolcissimo, a new chocolate shop that recently opened in Shaab.
 
Yesterday I was surprised by this beautifully packaged Valentine's set delivered by Dolcissimo's sweet representative, no pun intended. The pink colored box set included one dozen roses, four pieces of flavored Dip & Sip chocolates, a box of assorted gourmet chocolates, and a pack of chocolate fondue.
 
The design on the packaging of Dolcissimo, which means very sweet in Italian, looked absolutely gorgeous and yet not meant to divert one's attention away from the main event, that is the actual chocolates. I came to know from the owner that all of their chocolates are made using premium Belgian chocolates, which you can tell from the taste. I had a strong urge to wolf them all down in one sitting. 

Follow Dolcissimo on twitter for their latest updates. Dolcissimo is located at Al Shaab, block 8, Street 90. For further inquiries or orders, please call (+965) 2266-8281.

Saving these tempting dip and sip strawberry and hazelnut flavored chocolates for a night-in watching my favorite TV shows.

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...

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

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?
