Baby, It's Cold Outside


New season always calls for a new mood! And for some reason I'm in the mood for a new coat! Actually I think after seeing Burberry's selection of fabulous coats during its S/S 2012 runway, I'm more geared up than ever to find a statement coat.  I know I'll be hardly wearing it here though. But it will come in handy next time I plan for a winterish trip. So I did my rounds, offline first, and found some really chic coats with polished styles by DKNY, located in the Avenues Phase II, and our high-street favorite Zara. 
 
I fell in love with this très chic DKNY trench coat trimmed with black leather paneling. Price tag? KD 335

Love love love capes! This wool cape is by DKNY and also retails for KD 335

Now for the budget friendly versions, a very Céline-ish coat from Zara coat. Priced at KD 59

And this light-weight coat is also from Zara and its not orange in color! Don't know what went wrong with my cam. It's actually hot pink, like Jackie-O's iconic hot pink suit. It looked cute but not the heavy-duty type. Price tag? KD 59.

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.
