Outfit of the Day

I have to admit that the fashion variety of A/W 2013 did not do much to my seasonal must-buy list/shopping. Items were either sold out, weren't flattering on me, way overpriced, or too heavy for winter in Kuwait. However that doesn't mean that I didn't end up buying items that I loved, it's just not as much as I would have loved to, which is good news to my savings. That said, this outfit is definitely my favorite of A/W 2013 season, yes I know it's arrogant of me to compliment my own outfit, my apologies for that! I wore it to AlOthman Boutique's Beautifully Wicked event.

So let's start with my bespoke floral hairband which I asked Ninas de Papa to design for me and they did an amazing job, and by the way a selection of Ninas de Papa designs are currently stocked at AlOthman Boutique. My tri-color shoes are by Balenciaga, you can find them here. My pink silk top is by Tibi, and I paired them with brocade printed pants by TopShop and Antonio Berardi structured-crepe peplum belt, my favorite purchase in Winter 2013. You can layer it over minimal separates to turn a simple look into something beyond spectacular. And last but not least, Diane von Furstenberg face circle box clutch bag, which was available at Harvey Nichols Kuwait.

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.
