Print View

Every season, trend reports parrot “Mixed prints are in!", but the truth is mixed prints never go out of style. In fact, the only thing new about mixed prints is purely a matter of interpretation: tropical prints, floral prints, digital prints, retro prints... etc. Thanks to fashion giants such as Marni, Cacharel, and Etro, that build a collection based on their signature style... aka.. Mixed prints. We get to see different variations every season. And I personally always look forward to what Marni has in offer for us each season. 

Now speaking of Marni, we live in a country where some people can afford to buy several pieces from the brand in one go without hesitation. However, not everyone who can afford it can master the true look of Marni. Actually I hear a lot of people say "I don't know how to shop at Marni". The easiest way to shop Marni would be to start with the accessories. They go with most items in your wardrobe and definitely add that quirky cool factor to your look. From their cruise collection, on display now at the brand's boutique in 360 Mall, I spotted a fun casual chic collection of bags, iPad cases, and cotton scarves. And their quite reasonably priced for a designer brand, the scarf start at KD 60+.

Now these are really cool iPad cases! Which can also work as a make-up bag?
A shopper with a matching scarf? Love this combo!
And if all fails (or breaks your budget!), head to River Island and grab these cute floral printed flats...

I love Marni accessories, they're the best and even years later when you wear them they still look special. But with the clothes, it's not as consistent. Sometimes they turn out beautiful but sometimes the tailoring feels off, like your body looks like it's shaped weird, know what I mean? I can't decide if it's better for super heavy girls or for super skinny tall girls. Probably for both those groups it's great but for medium height medium weight, it's a bit more difficult to find something flattering.

I think most of Marni's designs are best suited for someone who's tall, whether fat or skinny. A lot of times when I try Marni's clothes, I really look like I put on extra weight.

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.
