Bring It On

Since the credit crunch crisis, almost everyone is thinking twice before purchasing luxury items. Some of you who have been working their budget since late last year, haven’t purchased much of anything in the clothes and shoes department. Depressing I know! So I have been challenged by two of my amusing readers to find stylish items and on-trend ensembles that are less than KD 100.

So, Today I am proud to announce my first selections for the Credit Crunch Friendly Shopping Game... Shoes by Kurt Geiger.

We all know that finding cheap, stylish, and comfortable shoe is like asking Amy Winehouse not to put on black eyeliner. It often seems like the stuff of legend or impossible to happen.

Not in Kurt Geiger’s case, this is the place to go and get cheap, stylish, and comfortable shoes. I’m not saying that this applies to the entire collection, but you can easily find several heels/flats that fall under these criteria. And the best part? Prices start from KD 25 to maximum KD 60.

Very Marni-like orange and grey patent leather platform heels

Just look at the cute strctured ruffles on the back of this soft pink satin platform heels


Comfy flats for the weekend

Kurt Geiger is located in the Avenues Phase II. Fashionistas out there, please feel free to participate in our Credit Crunch Friendly Shopping Game. The More, the merrier!

Thanks for being a good sport and taking the challenge :D Now those pink shoes with the ruffles really are a find! They look similar to a couple of shoes I saw at Four recently and those were well past KD 100 :D bravo bravo! Can't wait to see the whole ensemble you have in mind ;)

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.
