Museum of Everything

There I was at Museum of Everything in Selfridges snapping pictures away when suddenly I spotted a warning sign "No Photography. You will be fined 1,000 pounds"!!! Whaaa! I freaked out! I was about to loose 1,000 pounds of my shopping budget!! I immediately hid my camera inside my bag hoping that no one saw me. And started walking around the museum really fast expecting that any minute I'd be stopped by the security guards. Phew! That did not happen thankfully. And I did manage to have a look at the exhibition, which showcased over 400 drawings, paintings and sculptures from around the world by self-taught artists with developmental and physical disabilities.  I was really amazed by this fact and was glad to know that the people behind the museum were trying to connect the artists to the real world and give their work the proper presentation that they deserve. There were blown-up versions of some of the Museum's work on Selfridges' window displays along Oxford Street. So I safely settled for taking photos of the lovely window displays. Scroll down to view the beautiful creations.

Loved the shoes and the below shown dress with scribbles and doodles.

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.
