News Flash: Ralph Lauren Giant Ricky Bag is Coming to K-Town!

After New York and Paris, the Ralph Lauren Giant Ricky Bag is coming to Kuwait as the first Middle East stop of its World Tour at the Avenues starting from next week!

To celebrate the launch of the newest “Soft,” “Mini” and “Chain” variations on its iconic Ricky Bag, Ralph Lauren is exhibiting a spectacular “Giant Ricky Bag” at stores around the world. Taking cues from the Soft Ricky Bag, its beautifully crafted archetype, the Giant Ricky took a team of four expert artisans approximately one month to create. Echoing the supple silhouette and handwork throughout — from shaping to creasing to tacking — the Giant Ricky is beautifully outfitted with all of the Soft Ricky’s authentic details, from Italian-made leather construction to its key bell, grommets and functioning lock. Six feet tall and five feet wide, the Giant Ricky Bag is over four times the size of the Soft Ricky and weighs approximately 250 pounds (that's around 120 kilo grams!).

The exhibit travelled from Galeries Lafayette in Paris to the Ralph Lauren flagship store on Saint Germain and then onto the recently reopened Palais Galliera, the museum of fashion. After Paris, the Clementine Giant Ricky travelled to the Ralph Lauren flagship New Bond Street store in London before departing for the Maximilianstrasse store in Munich.

Yowza! That's one hell of a bag! Big enough to stuff half of my closet inside! Actually, it would make the perfect dream bag for travelling, if only it would pass the security check...

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.
