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

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...

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.

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?
