My Stay at Armani Hotel

Although I've heard more negative reviews than positive about Armani Hotel Dubai, I'm so glad I chose to stay in it during my trip to Dubai. The interior was a pure reflection of Giorgio Armani’s timeless sophistication and minimal elegance. It is the place to be if you want to be spoiled and pampered! The staff were very attentive and courteous at all times. My room was so elegant, with sliding walls on each side of the living room to reveal either the built-in closets, TV, and access my bedroom. And the best part of my room is that you get to have a remote control that not only controls the TV but also, the curtains, lights, and even the door! So if you're too lazy to open the door, all you have to do is see who's knocking by looking at your TV screen,  press the remote control button, et voila, the door opens. Here’s a quick tour of the hotel and my bedroom...

Fresh and lovely bouquet
The view from my room on the 39th floor. What a breathtaking view from the top!

More Armani flower arrangements scattered all around the hotel's lobby
The entrance to the 39th floor... a world of minimalist elegance
Armani Spa and pool.. total peace, quiet, and tranquility 
I was amazed to see everything in the hotel was branded Armani, even the Jam! If you must know, the taste was mediocre. However the setting of the Mediterraneo restaurant overlooking the Dubai Fountain, which I tried for breakfast, was really nice.  Food was OK, nothing special.. Oh! and the same applied to their dine-in room service.
Naturally, there was a small boutique inside the hotel selling Armani accessories. This necklace got my attention and got me into trouble too! Apparently I wasn't allowed to take any photos... a little too late!
And this is a photo of the Armani Ristorante which was absolutely delicious. Everything was perfect, the food, the setting, the presentation (art!!) the service. I loved it!

The Mille-feuille Mushroom was heavenly...Yum! Just look at the presentation!

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.
