The Window Display of Harvey Nichols London

First of all, my apologies for the radio silence, but if you've been following me on instagram, you'd probably know that I was in London for a quick getaway, and as a result I didn't have the time to blog. Lately I've been micro-blogging through my instagram more than I do blog. I guess it's the easy way to get the message across sometimes. Plus I've decided to be more selective on what to blog about, especially that the blogging scene and social media in Kuwait have become completely oversaturated in my humble opinion. 

Anyhow, back to blogging. And I'm excited to kick-start it with a post about Harvey Nichols London's window display. The BEST window display in London. Period. 

Themed as Fashion School, the window display paid homage to back-to-school days but with a humorous stylish twist, providing window shoppers with an education on the must-have pieces for spring/summer 2014. Each window reveals a different classroom scene and the doll-like mannequins are dressed in seriously stylish school uniforms. A bunch of cute miniature dolls decorated the window displays too and they were dressed in Harvey Nichols uniform. My favorite window is the one shown in the photo above where the teacher shows the classroom how Harvey Nichols is spelled. Scroll down and take a closer look at all the small details. I wonder how long it takes their team to come up and implement such a mind-blowing concept for a window display, which certainly deserves an A+.

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.
