Decking Out Your Home in Style with The Iris House

I want to live here.

I could just sum up my post on The Iris House with this one sentence and leave you scroll through the photos. But it wouldn't be fair not to dwell on the beauty that surrounded me when I first stepped foot inside the recently relocated home accessories shop.

Located in Messilah, The Iris House curates different home furniture and accessories from all around the world. The way their merchandise was displayed really felt like they were not only selling pretty things, but also focused on creating beautiful, and most importantly, complete and coherent environment for your home. Think furniture, paintings, antiques, sculpture, wall and floor decor, cutlery, hanging lights and chandeliers, mirrors, and so much more. Almost every piece complimented the other pieces around it. I was really overwhelmed by the number of beautiful items surrounding me, and I mentally started creating "I-want" list in my head! Again bad news for my savings, especially that most items don't fall under the "budget-friendly" category. But if you can afford to splurge, then it is definitly the go-to place to “dress up” rooms in style.

You can follow The Iris House on facebook by clicking here and also on instagram @theirishouse.

In love with this ceramic tray with an attached teapot, I think you can use the teapot as a flower vase or maybe for small snacks like dried fruits, candies, or nuts?

This huge chandelier had a wooden log as its backbone... gorgeous!


Spoons for istikanas (small tea cups)
The hip glass-in-glass style, for juice, tea, and coffee...

Naturally as soon as I saw these tray I remembered Mira Tiger Mood

Loved this retro-looking mirror

I have a weak spot for anything covered with mother-of-pearl...

Detergent/Chemical packages never looked THAT cool!

Through the window...

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.
