Event: Project: MEGA Toy Exhibition

During my stay in Dubai last week, I came across an exhibition titled Project: MEGA in Dubai Mall. It's considered Middle East's largest Designer Toy exhibit. And it features designer toys created by 125 Dubai-based artists. MEGA is basically a white vinyl figure and stands 8 inches tall. Any person can purchase it to customize it to his/her liking, the customization process is done easy thanks to MEGA's detachable parts. If you ever feel like expressing your inner Picasso, you can get your own MEGA at any of Virgin Megastore outlets across the U.A.E.

Back to the exhibition, I was really amazed by the work done by these 125 artists! I'm talking jaw dropping creations here! I wanted to snap a photo of each and every toy on display, but I'd spend hours doing that. The attention to detail and the amount of creativity used to design these toys has sure left me mesmerized.

The exhibition was launched on 28th June and will be on display until today 8th July. For the chance to own one of these unique art pieces, the organizers of the event will be having an auction for all of the art pieces on the 12th of July at the FN Designs studio in Al Qouz, Dubai.

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...
