Bags of Style

I thought it would be refreshing to post about handbags this time instead of shoes and also to probe our common interest. Even though I don't obsess about bags as much as I do with shoes, I enjoy checking out the latest designs and the must-haves. However, the more in demand the bag is by the public eye, the less I seem to be interested in getting it. Let's have a quick look at several bags that I really liked during my last trip to Dubai. Unique design is the common factor to my selection, and I wouldn't hesitate to wear them season after season. Let's start with this oh-so-pretty and perfectly formed pink bow bag covered with floral details by the bows master Alexis Mabille, it makes such a perfect statement for occasions when you want to dress up.


Give your daytime outfits a chic flair with Pierre Hardy's tri-color shoulder bag in tones-down shades of pale yellow, pale orange and grey. 


Olympia le Tan clutches.... need I say more? 

And another love moment with Pierre Hardy clutch, oh and by the way, I have spotted all of the bags mentioned above at Symphony boutique in Dubai Mal.

I actually like this Stella McCartney shoulder bag. But for some reason I feel like it's something I'd get bored from after a couple of wears.


Tonya Hawkes creates some seriously eye-catching clutches with its black stud detailing around sides. LOVE it.

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.

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .

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...
