Ever since Chanel released the Camellia high top sneakers featuring a cluster of camellias with their iconic double C’s on one petal, and I've been contemplating whether I should get them or not. And after a long journey of searching for those black on black pair specifically, because they also come in an ugly shade of beige and black, my sister finally found them for me in the states. And when I first tried them on, I was smitten by their beauty, HOWVER, I had, still have, doubts about their practicality and the fact that will I ever get my money's worth for buying these pair. I can't tell now because the weather is still warm and I prefer wearing sneakers when the weather gets colder. So for the time being, I'll be taking mental notes of what to wear with them.
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?
