Dancing Around Town

I gasped and almost jumped for joy when I saw with these funky retro pink and black leather brogues from TopShop for less than KD 30. I swear to god that a few weeks back I was thinking why hasn’t anyone designed brogues in funky feminine colors?! Like pink or in neon patent leather. Now that I’ve found these, all I can think of is "I want to dance to some James Brown music!", Don’t ask me why! Anyways, buy these brogues for the ultimate uber-chic look.

it's not living in a conservative country like kuwait, it's about whether that's your taste in shoes or not.

personally, i think they're ugly. then again, that's just my taste in shoes.

Conservative? Why, do you have to go out naked when wearing these shoes? Please, get a life. Ugh, I hate ignorant, close-minded people like you.

to HTKH: why don't you try walking in these shoes in the avenues; trust me fingers will be pointed, but now if you talk a walk on 14th street, NY, no one would care.

to miss...: so behind, your mom!
seriously; i ddint say they look like hooker shoes, but they are too much for kuwait. People are so into others' businesses. Its like so, ugghhh, i dont understand kuwait

btw i live in kuwait; but im from singapore.

Thanx for your opinion.
When it comes to my personal fashion choices, I don’t really care what other people might think. Especially when it comes to shoes.. AND flat ones... So live and let live. :)

Kuwait has people who are fashion-challenged as well as people who are the very epitome of elegance so the idea that Kuwaitis are too close-minded for these shoes is whatever.

Personally, I hate them because like HTKH I believe they are ugly and it's like they're trying to be quirky but they're not pulling it off so they're just like WA3 :P

after reading this whole convo over and over again - anon.#1 , i think your the closed minded one here. Ive walked in the ave's many times wearing these kind of shoes, and NO, no one pointed their fingers on me. its self confidence, sadly you seem to lack it. Because if you did have self confidence ( like our dearest confash ;*), you wont give a shit if someone pointed their finger at you.. so what? dont tell me , YOU never pointed you finger at anyone :)! i dont want to be mean here, but its the truth .. deal with it ! Confash, kilman la rayaah.. and im happy that you dont care what people think..life's toooo short to care what others think about you! i think you've got great taste :D

I agree with anonymous # 2!!
way to go Confash ;*
topshop is amazing, though i dont buy alot from it. I found these ( might seem like a no-way to you at first) denim leggings and i fell in love with them , esspecialy paired with an oversized blouse.

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.
