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.

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.
