I have a confession to make, I sometimes, not quite very often but still I do, buy fashion magazines in foreign languages to scout for international talents. Even though I don't understand a word in the, the photos are enough to say a thousand words, of course and then I have to scan the article for the designer's name, google it, read more about it to understand the story behind the brand or the special piece featured in the magazine. Rodrigo Massot is one of my recent foreign finds. He's s a young Brazilian jewelry designer who's fascinated by the art of the ancient world. He makes fine jewelry with the most exceptional designs using beautiful precious stones and diamonds. I couldn't find much about him online. His instagram account though had some real eye candy. I fell in lust with his earrings, they look like they're a one of a kind pieces that will leave people talking, in a good way. I hope they don't break the bank… I'll leave you now with some eye candy...
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?
