Pretty In Pink

While I was shopping around at Villa Moda Shuwaikh for new Spring/Summer clothes to buy, I saw this uber-cute satin coat in blush pink at D&G. normally this style is so not my thing, but this very light coat for some reason was too adorable to pass up on. All I can imagine was me wearing the Jackie-O style coat over a black structured dress, my pearls, a black Kelly bag, and sky-high stilettos. I tried it on, it looked gorgeous for a couple of minutes then I was like... blah.

And then I saw this equally adorable clutch in pink patent leather.. it’s sooo cute to look at, and then I soon got bored.. It's just not my thing I guess. Moving on...

I always heard rumours that some of the stores in Kuwait were selling counterfeit goods but I always thought that they were just rumours.

I was always told that Al-Ostoura sells counterfeit products but none of the pictures provided had any Al-Ostoura brands.

But then again this is Al-watan which is reporting which makes me uncertain of the validity of this article.

I guess I'm going to continue shopping exclusively in Europe.

Oh please, Villa Moda selling fake? Sheikh Majed is personally chummy with most of the designers and he has a very solid reputation. Therefore, I highly doubt that they buy/sell fake goods. Moreover, by contract, a store like Villa Moda must buy a minimum selected amount of clothing that are in wholesale. Thus, it is cheaper for him to buy in bulk. Not only that, but Villa Moda, unlike Al-Ostoura or Al-Othman, is world-renowned and its status is highly based on its excellent merchandise and impeccable service.

I agree with the Anonymous reader before me.
Villa Moda does not sell fakes, I KNOW FOR SURE.
They are known world wide, and would never do such things.
Plus they have close personal ties with many of the brands and designers.
I ASSURE YOU, VM DOES NOT SEEL FAKES.
Unlike, let's say, AISHTI!!!

And Яeema, it is obvious to anyone reading the article that those photos were taken pf products sold in places like City Center and such. Not luxury retailing.

Do check your facts before vomiting harmfull words!

I AM SURE YOU WORK IN VILLA MODA.
Villa Moda does not sell fakes; check the designers' store locators (in their websites), which proves that they are supplying goods to Villa Moda thus these are rumors!!

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.
