Retro We Go


As I mentioned in my previous post, I'm not a great fan of Juicy Couture tracksuits. However, I actually liked Juicy's girly-retro take on this classic style. The 3/4 sleeve navy colored jacket is embroidered with thick white threads. It's perfect for our not-so-cold weather with dresses or skinny or slim-leg pants. The Jacket was KD 181 and now it is being sold for KD 90.500 at Villa Moda Al-Fanar.

It can't get more retro chic than this. It reminds me of Kuwait Airways cabin crew uniform except they are blue with gold rings. Got to say, we may all hate their guts for the inflight service (or the lack of it) and the crappy on-board meal selection they provide us with but they always seem to get more bang for their money on crew attire and presentation. One could easily mistake their cabin crew uniforms for that of a French or Italian flag carrier. I dunno know it's very Nina Ricci Balenciaga, if you will. And although I meant it as a compliment you can't help wonder why KU doesn't get the likes of Villa Moda or Al Ostoura to commission Valentino, Chloe or Ungaro to design silk Kaftans for them : colour coded for each class of travel.

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

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?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
