Bring Back Miss Selfridge?


Back in the day when I was a teenager, I used to frequent Miss Selfridge a lot to get my fashion fix (ah, how I miss those days, RIP) so when I walked by the store in the Avenues, I was dead set on exploring it especially that I haven’t shopped at Miss Selfridge for quite sometime due to it’s terrible quality of clothing. So has it changes? Slightlyyy, still I’ve found a lot of cheap quality items, HOWEVER, I did find this shrunken jacket with mixed floral prints. What I like about it is that it has a vintage feel to it AND it was well tailored! I liked this piece a lot, can be paired with whimsy floral dresses or a pair of high-waist harem pants.  Maybe it’s time to add Miss Selfridge back to my list? Maybe they are now trying to step up in order to catch up with the likes of Zara and Topshop? No? Wishful thinking…

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.
