Channel Your Inner Betty Draper

I was walking around the Avenues the other day when I noticed the window display of Banana Republic had an announcement stating that they have received the Mad Men Collection. So I immediately went in and  inquired about this limited-edition line. Apparently, it was created in collaboration with the show's Emmy-winning Costume Designer Janie Bryant. This capsule collection offers a modern take on '60s style and features nearly 65 pieces of apparel and accessories for men and women.

I wasn't over;y excited about the women's collection but it did have some pieces that I liked like a chic leopard print trench coat and  high-waisted skirts (loved them!). The collection also included some tailored floral dresses, lots of light weight colored cardigans, silk tie-neck blouses, and statement accessories like print scarves and leopard print pump heels. They're more suitable for office wear. Check it out if you're in the area.  You can get a better look at the collection by clicking here.

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.
