Inspired By...


In a perfect world, every Wang fanatic would be dressed head to toe in this designer’s duds and have enough zeros in their accounts to purchase the entire line.  But since we don’t live in a perfect world, we have to find ways to get that Alexander Wang look sans the hefty price tag.  So I was thrilled when I found affordable Wang inspired pieces at TopShop store in the Avenues to achieve this season’s sporty chic and model-off-duty look.  The cropped grey sweatshirt would look fab layered over a tank top and a pair of harem-like/cargo/sweat pants and a pair of lace-up peep-toe boots. Another piece that I really liked is the Waterfall soft drape pocket jacket with jersey sleeves, which you can pair with fitted J band-ish cargo pant or a pencil skirt with your waist cinched if you want some definition.  Brownie points if you have Alexander Wang's duffle bag (the real deal of course!).

The problem with Topshop is that most of their hit items get sold out within hours! So shopping in topshop Kuwait to me depends a lot on LUCK! :P

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.
