The Sisterhood of the Borrowing Pants

I spotted this insanely gorgeous Hervé Van Der Straeten hammered ribbon-like gold-plated cuff on my sister for Eid and suddenly I longed for the old days when all of my sisters and I lived under one roof and easily borrowed from each other. It was so funny borrowing from each other because I had some certain rules that they had to follow and vice versa, like they were never ever allowed to borrow new things that I hadn't worn yet, things borrowed had to be returned EXACTLY the way they were in the cupboard (hello Monica Geller?!!), no spraying perfumes on my borrowed clothes.. etc. And god forbid if you break a rule! You'd have to plan for an escape route or resort to a some sort of "financial" compensation! 

Do you borrow from your sisters? if yes, what are/were your rules?

I still live under the same roof with my sister, we borrow lots of shoes and bag from each others but the hell would break loose if she borrowed something that hasn't been worn yet :P

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.
