It's a Revolution

If shopping around The Avenues or Marina Mall has left you feeling numb, dazed, and empty-handed, then you might want to check out the newly open independent multi-brand boutique: Revolution. Tucked behind a really old building on Ali Al-Salem Street, so old you wouldn't think that there is a hip boutique behind, Revolution offers a selection of under-the-radar labels and carefully chosen avant-garde pieces (that bracelet!! love!). I have to mention that I had a hard time locating the place! It's not visible when you drive, we had to park the car in KIC's parking lot and walked behind Commercial Bank's and Souk Al Manakh buildings to find it. But it was worth it, because I found some really great pieces that I don't think I'll find elsewhere. And even though the stock was small in quantities, I spent at least an hour in the store trying out things. Oh! And if you're planning to go there, bring your cash with you as the ATM machine is not yet installed. Scroll down to check out some of its collection on display...

Lil things blog and THOUQ posted about it too, click here to read about the opening night.

I've been meaning to order this book but I keep on forgetting! So I was thrilled to find it there. It's written by Celebrity model Inès de la Fressange. And she shares her secrets of how Parisian women maintain effortless style. 

I have this bag! I love it! Great for stashing a zillion thing inside... Glad to see it stocked in Kuwait.

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.
