Confashions From Kuwait

Lauren Conrad, the star of MTV's crappy and addictive show "The Hills", was spotted recently in a to-die-for Alexander Wang coffee colored block frock looking very well put together. I like the pleating and the ruched waist band. A forgiving dress for pear shaped people. And It's the perfect piece to wear when you want to shimmy and sway all night. And today, you can buy the same dress online on net-a-porter.com . The dress costs around KD 287 . Very veeerry reasonable price for an evening dress. On a different note, I have to admit, whenever this show is on, I'm glued to my TV screen! And I hate this about myself. But I love all "The Hill-ish" drama too much to move away from the screen. I have to stop this before I start talking like them.

During my recent (and never ending!) quest to find new casual chic tops to grace my fall wardrobe, I spotted this beautiful over sized gray long chunky knitted cardigan by Malene Birger (shown here) at Jade Boutique , located at Marina Mall, Salmiya. I immediately fell in love with it. It is sooo versatile and comfortable to wear. Pair it with the designer's "Gulda" snake print dress and thick tights. Or dress it down with a pair of slim-leg jeans, long tee, thin belt, and patent flats. And you're good to go. The bad news is that my size was sold out. Apparently, this cardigan is the fastest selling item in the store for this season and only very very few are left. So if you're eyeing this number, I suggest that you head there immediately first thing in the morning! How would you wear this cardigan?

My friend is amazed by how I take this issue of finding the perfect evening dress seriously. So I explained to her that finding a stunning dress makes the event even more special and memorable. Plus wearing the perfect evening dress makes you look good and boosts your confidence. And you know what that means? A very good mood and good vibes. So I can't just buy any dress off the rack! Was she convinced? Nope. Anyhow, the race ( or the nightmare !) for the perfect evening gown/dress is still on. And look what I have found for you this week. A beautifully embellished piece of art. This metallic gold and bronze dress is by Vera Wang. The design of the dress is simple and the shape reminds me of dresses worn by style icon: Grace Kelly in the 50's. The price tag? KD 849 . I loved the embellished details on the neckline and shoulders. No need to wear a necklace with it. Just wear it with a round-shaped earrings and a pair of thick tights. Style your hair in big 50's waves or a sl...
