Copy Cat: Schouler Studded Sandals


If you've been keeping up to date with Sex and the City fashion, then you'd probably already noticed the forever fabulous Carrie sporting a pair of to-die-for Proenza Schouler 's triple strap python studded heels.

Luckily for you fashionistas out there in K-town, my fashion radars have spotted almost identical style of the Proenza Schouler Studded Sandals at our favourite shopping destination, Al Othman. My heart skipped a beat when I first saw them. Those are the type of sandals that pull your look together and make you look unique. You could be wearing a potato sack for all I care and still look gorgeous in those killer heels.


The only difference between Carrie's sandals and the ones at Al Othman is that it's a 2-strap sandals (instead of 3) and it's not in python skin, which means you'll be spending a whole lot less cash. The heels are priced at KD 219. I say get them while you still can.


And if you still fancy the look but dread the thought of wearing high heels, then get the flat version of the studded heels. Stylish minus the pain. Price tag? KD 149.

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

Dear anonymous 2, if you try and purchase the Proenza shoes you will realize that the difference is about 17kD after adding the charges and shipping on Net A Porter. Please note that the prices listed on Net A Porter are not the final prices.
We at AlOthman are very careful with our pricing and we tend to use the suggested retail prices given to us by suppliers and if we vary a bit from other online shopping web sites it would be due to high shipping costs. There are many instances where our prices are lower then Net A Porter.
Thank you for all your comments.

Has anyone bought them? I am wondering how they fit (the heel version)
Netaporter is lame most of the times.They do have the oddest most random pricing. Sometimes they are cheapere sometimes they are more expensive.
Just recently saw a pair of shoes on there that i bought elsewhere ONLINE (yup also online) for 200 Euros less...... can you believe it? And yup, the EXACT same shoe...... :x

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.
