Stunning Samovar

Knowing how much I love skulls and eccentric items, the owners of SAMOVAR invited me to their showroom to take a closer look at a new rug they have recently received. When the owner first described it to me before seeing it, I honestly couldn't visualize the beauty of a rug covered with skulls. But when I saw it up-close and personal I immediately appreciated the craftsmanship and the design. And I loved it! Yes this style might not appeal to many, but I'm sure such design would have its own fan base. Obviously this piece is not suitable for kids rooms or a bedroom, but I can really see it in a retail store, hip office, or in the living room of a fashion editor/artist.. such a statement piece.

If skulls are not your cup of tea, I present you with other selection of gorgeous rugs that can make a statement just as strong as the one above. I was extremely impressed by their enormous selection of  rugs. I'm telling you, if you are looking for a rug that is modern, fresh, funky or maybe just a little different from the norm, then this is the place to be. Scroll down for more...

SAMOVAR Carpets and Antiques showroom is located at Al Tilal Complex in Shuwaikh.

This rug is actually made of dark denim and covered with geometric like embroidery.. loving the color combination of this one.

This beautiful rug is on trend with this season's mix'n'unmatch designs/prints

Some beautiful accessories for the home too...

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.
