Confashions From Kuwait

Man I need to brush-up on my photography skills! Until then, here's a quick outfit of the day post. I took this one while visiting Harvey Nichols Kuwait and I fell in love with this box cross bag by Edie Parker. I was wearing my cropped denim pants by TopShop , Gucci ' Princeton ' fur lined loafers , and Co flared top from AlOthman . 

Golden Goose sneakers were the flavor of the day for my peeps at the office the other day (year we're lucky to have a no-dress code policy in the office! Don't they look super cool in a "you-can't-sit-with-us" kind of way?! I like Golden Goose Delux Brand brand just as much as any sneakers-loving girl, but I have this dilemma with the sizing! Golden Goose Delux Brand is that kind of brand which is not consistent with the sizing, much like Louboutin you know? Which makes picking the right size online a nightmare. I bought a pair once online and it really felt like I was wearing 2 sizes smaller. I don't know if it's just me or other people can relate to it? Let me know your thoughts. 

First of all, have I been living under a rock lately?! How come I never knew about Aspinal of London having its own store in Kuwait, in the Avenues to be more precise?!!! I discovered it by coincidence on my way to dropping my kids to Kidzania . And the next surprise was finding one of the hottest collaborations of the season on display right there in front of me! être cécile , the uber-cool brand created by one of my style icons Ysamin Swell , has teamed up with Aspinal of London , designer, manufacturer and retailer of luxury leather goods and accessories for men and women, to present us with a collection of handbags, backpacks, and leather goods that blends the classiness and luxury of Aspinal and the quirky coolness of être cécile . I was hoping to see the famous plaid backpack, made noticeable thanks to Yasmin Swell during fashion week, but unfortunately it wasn't ordered for Kuwait. My 2nd favorite pick is the multi-colored box bag shown in the photo above. It's k...

Wasn't it just yesterday that made my "team flats" declaration??! And then I come across this hot fuchsia heel with a fancy collar by Aquazzura and suddenly I'm all weak in the knees! What can I say?! When it comes to fashion I somtimes get all bi-polar!! Had to practice a lot of self-restraint in order not to fall in its trap. So far I'm proud to say that I have succeeded. Now all I have to do is avoid passing by it.... good luck to me!

Call it growing old(er), but I find myself recently always striving for clothes and accessories that are both stylish and comfortable. I no longer have the stamina to wear something that's uncomfortable. Comfort has become a “must have” when it comes to my fashion purchases. So for shoes, I've been opting for fancy flats that are anything but boring. Like these pair by Max & Co. They're pointy, they're flats, they're covered in faux exotic skin, they don't break the bank, and their bright red! What's not to love?!?! You can find these pretty pointy flats at Max & Co. Boutique located at the Avenues Phase II.
