And the Oscar Goes to Al Othman

If you're a true fashionista, you would have already known by now that shopping wisely means taking advantage of what designers are offering in between seasons. In plain English, you'd better hunt for the "it" items of this year's Resort collections to stay ahead of the fashion savvy Kuwaiti crowd.

And what's better to venture into the resort season other than treating yourself with one lush cocktail evening frock by the ever-so-dreamy Oscar De La Renta?

Al Othman has already received Oscar De La Renta Resort Collection and each piece is blindly beautiful. I'm madly in love with the bright yellow puffy dress (shown on the 3rd picture) and the sleeveless yellow dress with white embroidered lace detail (first picture). Absolutely breathtaking. Here's some of what's in store now.




Al Othman is located at Mariam Complex, Salem AlMubarak St, Salmiya. For inquires, please call (+965) 575-4954.

Really?! it's a shame when you love sth so much and it ends up looking horrible on you!

It reminded me of the dress (also by Oscar) Carrie wore when she went out on a date with the russian guy...

A limited edition KD.1million power bra. I think it was from Ayn Sommers

You are having a laugh. That can't possibly be right. It sounds like a good bargain to me. I saw one in the shop windows at Ann Sommers new factory outlet near Jidda and that cost about $6 million. Either you've got your numbers jumbled or I am just fibbing. Confashions had better investigate and settle the matter once and for all. Interestingly enough, many shoppers from Kuwait visit the Faisaliah and Kingdom centre malls in Saudi for their annual requirement of boas.

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.
