I need a Cocktail.... Dress

Aren't you tired of that little black dress? I am! So I've decided to do a my homework and now I'm on the lookout for a daring and unique cocktail dress to complement my new sky-high heels and fake-tan. My first shopping destination was AlOthman.

I came across this stunning Proenza Schouler navy one shoulder dress, ruched from the front and adorned with one of spring/summer's most surprising trends.. Feathers! I'm not a huge fan of feathers but the way it is used on this dress makes it unbelievably chic and unique. The dress is retailed for KD 749.

My second option was this red hot Malandrino cocktail dress fir for a true fashion princess. Pair this Silk Chiffon Pleated red dress with gold accessories and cascading waves for a fresh evening twist. The price tag of the dress? KD 629.

OK, to me, this dress would not be an option for a cocktail dress, but I fell in love with it because it's sooo colorful and fun. It's nice for dressy formal occasions. The loose & bubbly shape of this Malandrino dress makes it easy to wear by skinny and curvaceous women. You can add a patent skinny belt if you want some definition. Finish the look with a peep-toe boots and you're ready to go. The dress is priced at KD 629.

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

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.
