Event: Monique Lhuillier's Trunk Show at AlOthman Boutique

Last Thursday AlOthman boutique hosted an in-store event celebrating their guest of honor designer Monique Lhuillier. They showcased the designer's Spring/Summer 2014 collection as well as her straight-off-the-New-York-Runway Autumn/Winter 2014 collection. I personally loved meeting the designer and her team and getting to know what inspired her designs. She was extremely sweet to everyone, from the press who were there to interview her, to the clients who bought a Monique Lhuiller bridal gown to have their wedding day photo signed by the designer, to the youngest little girls accompanying their chic mommies. No diva act or drama here. 

There was live classical blank playing music in the background, and everyone got a Monique Lhuillier candle as a giveaway. It was definitely a night to remember. 

That's me with designer Monique Lhuillier, it's amazing how down-to-earth she was and approchable to anyone during the event.

Always a pleasure bumping into sweet designer Noha Al Roumi of NohaNoor, and check out her Manolos! Hearts hearts! I have previously posted about them here.

How fabulous is that outfit? In love! I have also previously posted about these stunning Zara heels here.

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...
