What Shoes to Buy this Season

What's a better way to make an impact than wearing a new pair of statement shoes. And like every season I try to limit my want/need shoes list to three or four pairs, but that's of course always impossible when you're surrounded with mouthwatering selection of shoes to choose from! Boots, platforms, pumps, stilettos…oh my! Here are some suggestions to transform your look in one spectacular step for fall with this very brief edit of wonder heels which I spotted during my recent trip to London.

Let's start with this Fendi mixed media Oxford ankle boot, I can't get over how beautiful the details are on the wooden heel. You can pair the boots with slightly flared pants, pencil skirt, or a pair or cropped pants. Don't worry about the rest, these boots are made for walking flaunting. You can find similar ones here.

Nicholas Kirkwood For Peter Pilotto Printed Satin Pumps... need I say more? You can find one of the styles here.

And of course another Nicholas Kirkwood creation for Erdem, the tweed boots with the coolest structured heels.

After seeing these Rupert Sanderson guns and roses embroidered wedge boots, I kind of regret buying my Isabel Marant cowboy boots. These look so much cooler!

While shopping around Selfridges I came across this new shoes brand called SW1, so I did some research and found out that's its a new line by Stuart Weitzman created under the creative direction of Spanish designer Alvaro Gonzalez, who previously worked with Valentino and Jimmy Choo. I loved them and unfortunately the photo here really does not do the shoes any justice, especially the marble-like or mother-of-pearl details on the heels. But you can get a better and a closer look here.

Prada's lace-up perfection in the photo above and a jeweled slippers (shown below) to glam up your casual chic denim looks... heart!

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...

My Birkin... My Pride & Joy

Birkin ... Birkin .. Birkin ... you mesmerize me.. I'm so addicted to yoooooou . sitting galmorously in my closet is my hard earned blue Hermes Birkin Bag. To own it is like the ultimate fashionista dream. I look at it lovingly and think to myself " daaaamn ! you are one hell of a lucky girl! I shall protect you from the evil eye 'till the day I die ". My friend asked me once why am I so obsessed with my Birkin . I can list 100 reasons why. But just to be short & sweet, it's exclusive, expensive ( I saw a Birkin in vogue with diamonds on it's hardware. How much do you think it costs? ), it's hand crafted , it takes 2 whole weeks of dedication to produce one, and it's THE bag everyone in the fashion world admires. During a recent visit to The Comfort Shoe at Mariam Complex , I came across a Birkin look alike ( shown in the pictures above ). I have to admit, from afar the bag actually looked good. So I went in to check it out. And THANK GO...
