Nuqat Enriches our Community

I have announced Nuqat Foundation's workshops on my Save the Date page a few weeks ago.  Unfortunately, due to prior commitments I was unable to enroll in the Calligraphy workshop. And after seeing the photos of the workshop on Nuqat's blog, I feel like beating myself up for not attending! Then again it's not like I had a choice! Sigh! Anyways, I was excited to see that the workshops were/are being held at the recently renovated  historical building "Alqibliya School" in Kuwait City.  I think just being there sets you into the right mood for creativity and focusing on the instructors' main messages. This week is Nuqat's last workshop, they will be running a Street Art: Digital Graffiti workshop starting tomorrow May 16th-18th, from 5pm to 9pm. I think it would be nice for the people behind Nuqat to run a mini poll on their blog or site to get feedback from people who are interested in this field on what kind of workshops to run  in the future.

You can check Nuqat Foundation's blog here for more information and to view photos of the previously conducted workshops. If you're interested to find out more, please contact info@nuqatfoundation.com or call (+965) 9770-6522.

Work in progress
The Nuqat team with instructor Saleh Al Shukairi which hosted a workshop titled Introduction to Arabic Calligraphy.

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.
