Sonia Rykiel Heats Up H&M



Sonia Rykiel for H&M playful lingerie and accessories collection arrived in store at The Avenues over the weekend. Inspired by the fifties era, the range included 50s-style underwear, racy suspenders, sexy negligees, black velvet long pants with matching jackets (I like), decorated slippers and mules, Madonna-inspired satin body corset (I like), rose decorated underwear set (I like), and not so great black bow headpieces and brooches.


And there was a pretty off-the-shoulder black velvet gown with a big bow on the side on the window display which I actually liked. It was the first item that got sold out, I wasn’t surprised, KD 45 for a decent evening gown?! One hell of a bargain!

LOL! My bad walla! I don't know how it slipped my mind. I totally forgot about it, when I passed by H&M the other day and saw the collection, only then I remembered! Maybe the fact that the launch was not much hyped by the media and the public as they did for the Choo launch (or Choo hysteria) made me forget about it.. :)

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.
