The K Tote Scores an F

Canvas bags have never been as significant as they are this season. In an effort to top off the Anya Hindmarch’s “I’m not a plastic bag” bag hype, TopShop’s collaborated collection with Kate Moss has resulted in the production of Miss Moss Signature K tote canvas bag as shown in the photo below.


Yes, I can feel the excitement within your deadly silence too. I know you just can’t contain yourself either. What is this!? It's more like the work of 6th grade mediocre student in an Arts & Crafts class. It's too small to be used as a beach bag and it's un-supportive shape and unpractical color makes it impossible to use as a day bag. However, it can be used as a travel laundry bag (for your 2 years old sis/bro). But who would want to pay KD 5 for a travel laundry bag the size of a Doritos bag. Not me that's for sure.

On a different note, is it just me or did you notice how TopShop's quality and variety of clothes dwindled ever since they moved to the Avenues? What went wrong?! Why was the old TopShop more fun and had better collection than the new one?

That is so true! I keep saying the same thing and I stopped even going to Top Shop after my few visits to their avenues shop resulted in utter disappointment

just me
I know! I used to leave the old TopShop with 2 huge shopping bags in my hand. Now I barely buy a thing.. and the last few times I've been to the new one, I ended up buying "what-was-I-thinking" kind of stuff.

Totally agree! Most of the stuff there has been on display for such a long time. Even the accessories section, which used to be the cutest, is disappointing now. They really need to get their act together!

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.
