When the Boy Chanel bags made their debut, I wasn't too thrilled about the collection mainly for one reason, I didn't like the look of chain used on the bag. It looked too... industrial. Bear in mind that I made my judgment based on only photos I've seen of the Chanel ‘Boy’ bag. And Boy (no pun intended) was I wrong. The other day I saw the boxy ‘Boy’ bag in black and pearly white at the brand's boutique in Salhiya Complex. So I decided to give it a try, I took a closer look, carried it on my shoulder. And at that point I pretty much got hooked, unfortunately for my savings. There is something so rough-chic about its structured shape and the geometric metal fastening featuring the iconic double C’s and yup... that industrial-looking chain. Price tag? KD 1,075 for the black one, not sure if the pearly white had the same price tag, but if you're planing to get it, here's a word of advice, don't wear it with denim to avoid staining the bag.
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?
