Mother of All Malls - Part I

So guess where have I been to? Yup, Dubai Mall. The home to just about every major fashion and designer brand in the world. The mall is so huuuuge, equivalent in size to more than 50 soccer fields, The size of the shops reminded me of Las Vegas's malls in terms of space and variety.

According to their site, Dubai Mall features more than 1,200 stores and over 120 food & beverage outlets. Amongst its world-class attractions are: an Aquarium with its own indoor tunnel, an Olympic-size Ice Rink; and the world's largest indoor Gold Souk.





This is a glimpse of the Fashion Avenue, the one-stop shop for fashion enthusiasts in this region. It has over 70 stores/boutiques entirely dedicated to the biggest designer brands in high-end fashion, which I'll share with you tomorrow.

The flagship store of Galeries Lafayette in Paris has a branch at Dubai Mall. Product offering includes: Women, men and kids fashion, accessories, lingerie, cosmetics and fragrances, jewelry and watches, interior decoration. They had a nice selection of casual chic clothes from brands such as: Vanessa Bruno, Maje, Hoss Intropia, Manoush, Sandro, See by Chloe... and more.


I love the combo of snake skin shoes and neon yellow trimmed heels. Almost everything was on sale at Galeries Lafayette. Below is a photo of Givenchy s/s 2009 shoes section on 30% discount.

From my experience Galeries Lafayette branches are never as good as the Flagship store in Boulevard Haussman.

I hope it comes close though.

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.
