Someone Stole Um Kalthoom's Thunder...


I've spotted this adorable Sabah, a Lebanese singer and actress, rainbow colored clutch by Sarah's Bag at one of the boutiques in Villa Karizma called Ghazel el Banat. Such a cool piece for Ramadan and for all year round actually. It's the last piece and it's around KD 44.

Update 1: It's actually Suad Hussny on the bag and she's an Egyptian actress. Thanks Ke7l for correcting me ;)

Update 2: Ehm.. Apparently.. it is Sabah the Lebanese singer and actress on the clutch, Thank you Pink for re-assuring me :P And I also did some googling here and here just to make sure that we got it right this time! And of course Pink's post here. ;)

Hi :)

We posted about Ghazal Banat two weeks ago :)

Just a small thing? That's "Suad Hussni" not Sabah :) and she's Egyptian :)

Its such a beautiful piece! And its also bittersweet as this month marks the date she dreadfully passed away.
:(

I think we need to pride ourselves in creating arab idolised pieces, we marvel over a simple t-shirt with the gorgeous marilyn monroe, why not marvel over our very own scarletts?

Thank you for commenting and correcting me at first, but apparently it is Sabah and not Suad Hussney.. anyways.. these things happen ;P

It is! I liked it a lot.. very refreshing.. Marilyn, Audery, and even Um kalthoom are slightly over used.. So Sabah, Suad, and even Mariam fakher el deen would be a nice change..

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...

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?

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
