It's a Revolution

If shopping around The Avenues or Marina Mall has left you feeling numb, dazed, and empty-handed, then you might want to check out the newly open independent multi-brand boutique: Revolution. Tucked behind a really old building on Ali Al-Salem Street, so old you wouldn't think that there is a hip boutique behind, Revolution offers a selection of under-the-radar labels and carefully chosen avant-garde pieces (that bracelet!! love!). I have to mention that I had a hard time locating the place! It's not visible when you drive, we had to park the car in KIC's parking lot and walked behind Commercial Bank's and Souk Al Manakh buildings to find it. But it was worth it, because I found some really great pieces that I don't think I'll find elsewhere. And even though the stock was small in quantities, I spent at least an hour in the store trying out things. Oh! And if you're planning to go there, bring your cash with you as the ATM machine is not yet installed. Scroll down to check out some of its collection on display...

Lil things blog and THOUQ posted about it too, click here to read about the opening night.

I've been meaning to order this book but I keep on forgetting! So I was thrilled to find it there. It's written by Celebrity model Inès de la Fressange. And she shares her secrets of how Parisian women maintain effortless style. 

I have this bag! I love it! Great for stashing a zillion thing inside... Glad to see it stocked in Kuwait.

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.

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.
