The Reveal: Project AlOthman Outlet x Confashions

Yesterday AlOthman Outlet team shared with me the final photos of their lookbook, which I have helped in styling the looks for and was anxiously waiting for the end resukts. And I kid you not, I literally gasped when I saw the photos. The girls of AlOthman Outlet did an excellent job in creating the perfect ambiance for the outfits to shine. The make-up was perfect too, very subtle, just the way I like it, thanks to make-up artist Mae Al-Hendi. I must admit, while looking at the photos, I got this urge to throw out almost everything in my closet and to start fresh with this lookbook.

I was supposed to be there at the photo shoot but due to my other commitments, I couldn't make it. The beautiful photos were taken by a new photographer Farah Al-Reshaid. Also special thanks goes to our gorgeous model Roula Arab for her patience and great attitude. And of course to AlOthman Outlet team for helping out in the accessories department.

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.
