It's All in the Details

I'm always on the eye out for a casual chic items as these what I consume the most in my daily lifestyle. And in Whistles I found some cute casual items from the store's new Autumn Winter collection 2009. They had really nice oversized and very Stella McCartney-esque knitted tops which would look very on-trend paired with leggings or simply flat boots if you're petite.

This squiggle applique orange dress is incredibly cute and its priced at KD 64.400. Ahem.. even though it's 40 pounds online! (correction.. it's 140 pounds! Thanks Bibi)

This shirred silk tunic would look nice paired with dark skinny jeans or dark stovepipe pants. Price tag? Around KD 50.

Whistles store is located at Arraya Complex, Kuwait City. You can check out their new and bigger collection online here.

Su3ad Al Athbi has beautiful collection of dara3as called sirdab. You can check her facebook group for details of future exhibitions: Sirdab س

Other designers would be NonoPink by Reem Al-Mudhaf, Najeeba Al-Qudibi... but their Ramdan exhibitions were held weeks ago. So your best bet would be to check out the exhibitions at Bayt Lothan, Bait Sidra, Bait 32... you might find sth there.

Thanks for the heads up! ;) I was surprised myself!

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.
