Coco & Zoey

Let me describe to you a scenario, you know that feeling you get when you randomly stumble upon a small shop while on vacation in NY's meatpacking district, or in Antibes, filled with so many goodies by unknown designers? That's exactly how I felt when I  not-so-randomly first stepped foot inside Coco & Zoey. 

Don't be fooled by its small space; this Shuwaikh-chic shop is well-curated and delivers an unexpected mix of established and up-and-coming designers for women who want to avoid high-end/magazine editorial looks and love lots of colors and prints. The racks are brimming with printed summery pieces for casual outings and dressier occasions. The accessories are more on the playful side and sourced from different parts of the globe too! Think Summer espadrilles all the way from georgia, tribal inspired fur-covered sandals from South Africa, tie-dye bags, and bohemian ethnic chic jewelry. Scroll down for more eye candy.

Coco & Zoey is located in Lily Center, souk 15, in Shuwaikh and they're open Saturdays to Thursdays from 11am to 1pm and from 3pm to 9pm. 

These colorful cotton seperates are what every min-n-unmatch loving girl dream of! Of course my size was sold out.... what was I thinking :\ 

The budget-friendly book clutch! They're actually cute and priced at KD 50 more or less 

And quite spacious too!

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.
