I went to visit Kuwait-based atelier Shams Concept to browse and shop their caftans selection the other day. If you're following me on snapchat (confashions), you would know how obsessed I am with their caftans. Anyhow, I spotted these really cure clutches made out of a mix of vintage and Uzbek and Afghan fabrics and decorated with sea shells, coins, and colorful beads by one of the co-founders of the atelier, better known as Love by Shaikha. I immediately fell in love! The clutch is perfect for the summer and to pair with our Ramadan caftans, and the price tag? They're selling for KD 45 only! A bargain! Wouldn't you say?
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?
