Bleach Babe

The return of the bleached denim brought back memories of my dreadful fashion in the 80's. But now Balmain, J Brand, and other designers introduced a modern versions of the bleach streaked denim.

I know a lot of my family and friends would cringe at the thought of wearing this trend. But I would like to try it out, I won't be paying a hefty price for a pair of Balmain (and a micro-trend) that's for sure. And I don't like the acid-wash print on these featured Zara jeans. But if I find the right pair, in price and quality, I would wear the denim with a neutral solid cotton knitted loose top.

If you're interested in the featured bleached jeans, it's from Zara for KD 21.500.

Hi Connie,
this acid wash trend is really getting to you babe! I remember your older posts regarding the matter! :) I just think with the right items, a key 'trendy' look could be worked to look extremely chic. But some trends arriving in Kuwait just can't be trendy here!

Teeman, what kind of posts would you like to see regarding menswear? trends/new arrivals/hair?

Thank you for your recommendation. I'm not sure if I can cover the men's fashion as well. I'm pretty focused about women's. But it's def sth that I would consider in the future ;)

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.
