Comme des Garcons For H&M in Kuwait


The Commes des Garçons collection for H&M has finally hit all H&M stores throughout Kuwait. The verdict? The collection of fashion's most avant garde label was, unfortunately, mediocre. Nothing special and some of the black gothic jackets were not available. Plus the material used in most items was too heavy for our weather. There were lots of polka dots and lots of black. Check it out, the collection might appeal to you.

I was never a big fan of "Comme des Garcons" their garments always look 3 sizes too big, to the point where the clothes are wearing YOU, not the other way around. but I'm interested to see what they have created for H&M, I' sure they had to tone it down a bit to make the pieces more wearable.

I think because of the majority of the collection being black and with some polka dots, you just gotta use it to complete a look and nnot build a look around it.

I was expecting better from Comme des Garcon for H&M, and again with the quality, I mean what do you expect when you such prices!
Topshop's quality I believe to be better.

Anyways, I think with CdG for H&M there are basic not so bad pieces, I like the black short shirwal for women... And the polk dots shirt for men.
But again, they're nothing to go to clound no. 9 over....

C.d.G has that special appeal that only few successful ones manage to be lured into,-it's extremely artistic with surreal visions, believe or not they do have fans and many faithful followers. Here is the deal: usually the head office in Sweden and the purchasing team collaborate on selecting pieces that are more suitable for the Gulf weather.

Now regarding other issues black is a forever staple, one seams to simply can't get enough (cough-cough) This is one of the most versatile shades that exists, dress it up or down, punch up the color with a pop art scarf, perhaps a dash of paisley chiffon peaking though or just do you your own thing (a pin or two, who cares if they are out of date, one's personal style should be indefinite)

As for quality, folks this is H&M, what do you expect—top trend for a bargain that will last you a wash or two (kidding, but if you hand wash instead of machine their garments last longer)

This blouse was sold out after 2 days of the collection launch. But believe me, up close, it doesn't look as nice as it does in photos...

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.
