I took a photo of this beaded Fendi baguette bag, featured here, to post about the revival of a bag that was iconic over ten years ago, but then I remembered that I already did and you can read the previous posts here and here. And then a couple of days back, I was browsing Zara's new collection, and spotted these beaded heels which looked very similar to a pair of Vionnet beaded sandals, a perfect "Just Like..." post, I thought to myself. But I finally decided to combine them in one post, because if we were living in the eightie's, these would be the perfect pair of matchy-matchy handbag and shoes. Thank god we don't!
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?
