Event: Style Me Kuwait

Last night I passed by CAP Gallery to check out Style Me Kuwait event. Here's a small intro about the event and what was it all about. Image Factor Dubai along with Tara Sillery of PR Passion hosted an exclusive two day styling workshop. The workshop was conducted by International Stylist and Founder of Image Factor Marissa Woods, where she provided trainees with styling tips and tricks to become a professional stylist.  

The trainees who attended the workshop also got the chance to participate in a competition to become Kuwait’s Next Top Stylist, judged by a panel of celebrity judges where the winner is given a break into the fashion industry as a professional stylist.

I was supposed to pass by early but being asthmatic, dusty weather suffocates me and I kept on procrastinating in hopes of the dust clearing up, of course that didn't happen so I arrived to the event a tad too late. I was bummed! However, I did manage to get a quick view of some of the items that were on display by regional designers. It is worth mentioning that our fellow bloggerista and cute-as-a-button Pretty in Pleats was a runner-up in the competition! Congratulations!  

I think this strapless gown and Karl Lagerfeld tees (cute!) were designed by a Dubai-based brand called 4C

Lovely colors by Paris-based brand Caroline Monick

The goody bags? And below a list of the regional brands that participated in the event

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?
