The LBD


It’s the wedding season and you’re on the lookout for a cocktail dress? Relax and kick back those red soled stilettos.  I have gladly done your homework for you and I've got some fab picks right here that won’t break the bank (well except for one!).  So let’s start with today’s post focusing on our all time favorite, the LBD. Let's start with this D&G halter dress with ruffled tulle detail which I spotted at Aïshti in the Avenues. Price tag? KD 367. With all those ruffles going around, you don't need to worry about accessories. Just a simple pair of patent heels and diamond earrings will do. 


For those of you who like simple designs check out this D&G strapless lace dress with ruched detailing on the side and a ribbon bow. I couldn't find it in D&G's online look book but I've found the same design in different material just to give you an idea of how it actually looks like. Price tag? KD 230


Another cute dress by Italian brand Cristiano Burani with light organza ruffled shoulders. Also available at Aïshti Price tag? KD 218


Try this uber-chic LBD by Preen. The long sleeves lace dress from the brand's pre-fall collection 2010 is very fitted, so invest in a good pair of spanx. Price tag? KD 296

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.
