Liudmila Launches its Debut Collection at AlOthman Boutique This Wednesday

I'm excited about the launch of Liudmila's debut collection at AlOthman. The creative talent behind the brand emerging designer Najeeba Hayat, was able to put herself on the shoes fashion map thanks to her tireless commitment and dedication. She studied shoe design for almost 6 months and really worked hard on every aspect related to the brand, from the design, to marketing, to budgeting, to promoting the shoes, all on her own!

AlOthman Boutique will launch Liudmila S/S 2015 shoes collection this Wednesday April 1st at 6pm at AlOthman boutique located in Salmiya, Salem Al Muabark Street, Maryam Complex (Basement). Pass by to meet the designer Najeeba Hayat and be the first to shop her debut collection.

Liudmila began with the belief that the future of footwear lies in creating desire and fantasy while respecting a woman’s mobility. Made in Italy, Liudmila singles itself out by a focus on lower-heeled styles. All of their heel styles fall under the 100mm ranges with the majority of the collection using a 50mm heel. Liudmila debut shoes collection combines softness (of line and leather) with extreme delicacy; the designer used innovative and rarely used materials like salmon skin treated in luxurious finishing.

For her Leandra wedge heels (shown in the photos below), a new manufacturing process had to be invented by the designer to be able to create this style without ruining the line, and her Marmalade sandals hand-carved in wood and the platforms are mounted separately so as to give flexibility to the style.

Needless to say that Liudmila shoes were manufactured in the same factory as Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin in Vigevano, outside of Milan.

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...
