I have a hate/love relationship with key chain/handbag charms. I love the way they look (remember how cute Prada’s robot and Marni’s stuffed dolls looked?!), bought several ones throughout my fashion/shopping obsessed years, but I just hate the way they look hanging on my handbag. They ended up being un-used and neatly stored in my drawer. I did try to attach some of them to my chain necklaces, but that didn’t work either. I haven’t bought bag charms for quite some time, and I was thiiiise close to buy the LV speedy charm (featured here) the other day while shopping at LV boutique in Salhiya Complex just because it looked “cute”! Thank God I came back to my senses and didn’t… They do make a cute gift though… right?
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?
