My Favorite Picks from ShopBop.com

With my daily grind, It's not always that I get the chance to thoroughly scan online shops as much as I'd like to. But in those rare moments when I do, I scan almost every single product from the new season collections, and try to come up with a well-curated wish list, which I refer to whenever I'm in need of retail therapy. This week I managed to do exactly that with ShopBop.com. The site has gazillion products! But nothing stops a hardcore shopper like me. And I narrowed down my wishlist to 6 items, some with price tags that won't make it to my online shopping cart, oh well... a shopaholic can dream! Here is my ShopBop wish list for this season:

I love this unique blend of April, May Checked long coat, I can just imagine Caroline Issa wearing it for Feb's fashion week
I think I have found the perfect elegant dress for formal events from Tibi. Black and white never goes out of style
O.M.G! That fox and wool coat from Peter Som is a trophy piece! I'd pair it with a pencil skirt and minimal accessories to let it do the talking
Jerome C. Rousseau color-block sandals? Yes please! A girl can never have enough shoes...
Leather is hot this season, so why not pick one in a fun color? This leather skirt is by DSQUARED2
Turquoise? Check! Layered? Check! DanniJo just knows what accessories junkie wants!

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.
