I was walking around Prestige the other day, the Grand Avenues' luxury high-end boutiques section, and saw Tom Ford's boutique already open. I'm not sure when it opened exactly, but I was very excited to finally see it right then and there in front of me. The store is absolutely chic. however, It was a bit.. too quiet. It actually felt like stepping into a private salon, I can barely hear my footsteps because of the thick carpet. The furniture was sleek and clean, the entire ambiance felt very sensual and glamorous. Everything was finished with a top-to-toe perfection. The boutique was displaying women's wear collection, handbags (yup the Natalia was there too in 4 different shades), jewelry, small leather goods, and accessories. I was instantly hooked to a pair of black lace-up sandals, as shown in the photo above, and a pair of metallic cat-eye sunglasses. hmm, need to get my shopping priorities straight, these will be added to my wish list for now until I sort out my must-buy list.
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?
