The New Age Fairy


As you may have already noticed, discovering new talents from this part of the world has become my niche recently. So in this post, I'm thrilled to introduce to you Lebanese designer Karen Karam.

Let me give it to you plain and simple, Karen, the Central Saint Martins graduate, is the modern day fashion fairy who designs very wearable funky and girly organza/satin cocktail dresses with a mix of ethereal draping and uber accents.

If the words "Central Saint Martins" didn't shake you up or move a single stylish nerve then read more..

Karen Karam has interned with the biggest names in the fashion industry including Alexander McQueen, Chloe, and John Galliano. Also, Her accessories collection was sold at Collette, Paris's hottest and hippest shopping destination for limited and exclusive fashion and lifestyle merchandise. She has won the Mulberry Bag Award competition and she was also a finalist at Mango's young designers competition. Her clothes were already donned by Natalie Imbruglia and Lily Allen and are currently sold at Boutique one in Dubai and Cream boutique in Beirut.

Here are some images of my favourite Karen Karam looks from her Fall/Winter 2009 collection.

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.
