Tsumori Chisato at Villa Moda Mubarikiya

Tsumori Chisato is one of those designers whom I'm passionate about and almost every season I tend to buy a piece or two from her collection. Tsumori Chisator is known for her eclectic pieces and quirky designs. Not everyone will appreciate her work and her designs are definitely not for the minimalists. They can be described in two words: Bohemian Chic.

Villa Moda is the only store in Kuwait where you can buy Tsumori Chisato's collection. And Villa Moda Mubarikiya has just received TC's Fall 2007 collection (with a hefty price tag). Unfortunately, I was slightly disappointed with her collection this season. Something was missing. Anyhow, here's some of what's available in store now.




And here are some pictures of Tsumori Chisato's pre-fall collection which are also available at Villa Moda Mubarikiya.

Tell me something, which of these do you write for: Alef, Thouq or Bazaar? And you still haven't spilt the beans on that price tag of a Tsumori Chisato ( blimey! what a mouthful). Out with it now! In some ways I can almost begin to see a "Aki Narula" of sorts emerging right there in this collection. Who btw is the chief merchandiser for Villa Moda Mubarakiya? Also do they home deliver stuff to friends and relatives for you in the festive season?

mad about madeleine vionnet
Well, Thank you very much, I'll take that as a compliment ;)
Tsumori Chisato's prices ranges between KD 200 and KD 700. Most of her casual cotton tops are no less than KD 200 or KD 150 minimum.

I'm not quite sure who's the senior fashion buyer at VM. I think he/she is doing a good job in terms of the selection of designers but need to work on the selection of items a little bit. VM offering at home personal shopping service? highly unlikely. Then again, I wouldn't know. They might give it to their V.V.I.P clients?

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.
