They Say Shoes Make the Outfit...

Ahhh... There is nothing more heart-warming than a shoe post. I have taken these photos when I was in Dubai last month and I completely forgot about them, and a bunch of other things too! Anyhow, I don't know about you guys, but this season hasn't been my favorite. I didn't buy as many shoes as I normally would've (gasp!!), plus some shoes are ridiculously over-priced. Since when is it OK to spend KD500+ on a pair of impractical and difficult-to-walk in shoes?!! Yes I do believe that the shoes make the outfit, but with these price tags, I won't have enough money to pay for an outfit, or more importantly to pay the BILLS! The serious kind that is.

Anyhow, I admit. My shoe closet is filled with impractical purchases, but who cares, they look so colorful and pretty (shallow much?). Here's a round-up of some of the nice things I've spotted here and there. Starting with Rupert Sanderson parrot embroidered wedge heels spotted at Symphony boutique. You can find similar styles here.

Dolce & Gabbana Belucci raffia shoes, you can find them in red here.


Givenchy women's Patterned Upper Shoes from SS13 collection. You can purchase online here.

No one gets away with quirky cool designs quite like Charlotte Olympia, check out the caged parrot on the heel. 

Hello Alaïa! Hearts hearts hearts!

Although there golden embellished heeled sandals by Gucci are not me, they really look like THE dancing shoes you'd want to wear for a salsa party.

Well hello there you pretty little thing! Balenciaga wave frill ankle boots

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.
