Shopping and Dinning

If you've been following me on instagram @confashions, you probably know by now that the always impeccably dressed, and one of my favorite fashion bloggers in the region, Dana of TheOverdressed was in K-town over the weekend. Dana visited Kuwait to assist her lovely sister Reem of Green Bar, who happens to be one of the participants of Qout Market, Kuwait's official farmer's market. I have previously featured Green Bar on my blog here and here, and I'm officially obsessed with their face elixir and the botanical protein Hair Revitalizing Oil. Anyhow, I passed by their hotel to pick them up and headed to Boutique N since they've never been to it before, and we had some time for retail therapy before heading out for dinner. AlJawhara Al Mahdi of Boutique N welcomed us to her store with her usual warm smile and genuine self. Dana, Reem, and AlJawhara all looked fabulous, I love the fact that each one had her own personal style, Dana looked stylishly overdressed in her vintage pink Chanel jacket, Reem looked effortlessly Parisian-chic in her skinny cropped pants, ankle boots, and fitted leather jacket, and AlJawhara looked uber-chic in her Viktor & Rolf jacket and Balenciaga tee worn with Ek Thongprasert x Natasha Goldenberg necklace. I went for my black Comme des Garcon bows jackets paired with red Isabel Marant x H&M pants, as shown in the photo above. The night was soon ended with a scrumptious meal at Lorenzo with these beautiful (inside and out) girls.

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...

My Birkin... My Pride & Joy

Birkin ... Birkin .. Birkin ... you mesmerize me.. I'm so addicted to yoooooou . sitting galmorously in my closet is my hard earned blue Hermes Birkin Bag. To own it is like the ultimate fashionista dream. I look at it lovingly and think to myself " daaaamn ! you are one hell of a lucky girl! I shall protect you from the evil eye 'till the day I die ". My friend asked me once why am I so obsessed with my Birkin . I can list 100 reasons why. But just to be short & sweet, it's exclusive, expensive ( I saw a Birkin in vogue with diamonds on it's hardware. How much do you think it costs? ), it's hand crafted , it takes 2 whole weeks of dedication to produce one, and it's THE bag everyone in the fashion world admires. During a recent visit to The Comfort Shoe at Mariam Complex , I came across a Birkin look alike ( shown in the pictures above ). I have to admit, from afar the bag actually looked good. So I went in to check it out. And THANK GO...
