Symphony By Day


Since the event was at night, we decided to take a walk around Dubai Mall, check out the shopping scene, do some window shopping (which ended with big purchases that don’t fit the suitcase!! Typical!), and locate Symphony Boutique so that later I don’t waste time walking around the mall wearing the highest heels I have ever tortured my feet in.

When I got to Symphony Boutique I thought it would be closed for the evening event’s preparations. I was surprised to find that it was open to the public and they were holding a “Meet the Designers” event. Meet the designers as in The Hills and The City star and designer Whitney Port, shoe designer Rupert Sanderson, shoe designer Camilla Skovgaard, Erin Fetherston (first photo), Project Runway's youngest winner Christian Siriano, and the face of Symphony AW10  campaign and one of America's Next Top Model’s finalists Raina Hein. Of course being the type that easily gets star struck I instantaneously went in and started snapping the pics away like a paparazzi, click click click, and started chit chatting with all of the designers. The conversations all started with the following unimpressive and so predictable statements “I came all the way to see you!” (For god’s sake!!! It’s just a 2 hours flight) And “I LOVE your designs”! (VERY original!)

Anyways, I’ll leave you now with the pics and comments…

That's Raina Hein signing her autograph on a limited edition Symphony Postcards. She is incredibly sweet and down to earth. And her skin is so smooth, I don't think she'll ever need to put on a foundation.


Glimpse of what's in store...


Super skinny long legs with super shiny long hair. Siiiigh


Charlotte Olympia!!! Total shoe bliss!

Camilla Skovgaard TDF peep-toe heels! (mental note: add them to the shopping list)

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.
