Travel with Style






Summer Summer Summer Tiiiime.. And you know what that means, Most of you are planning your summer getaway, even if it was for a 2 to 3 days-trip to Sharm, Dubai, or Greek. To me, it's important to look stylish AND comfortable when you travel and not be dragged down by bulky suitcases & luggage that make you stand out like a tourist. Tough? Yes. Impossible? No.
During my recent shopping spree to Al Raya complex I found this unbelievably cute suitcase by United Colors of Benetton (Remember how hip their t-shirts were back in the days!?). The suitcase would be perfect for getting away for the weekend or a 3 day vacation. The suitcase is big enough to fit everything you need from your clothes, toiletries to magazines (and a small "sogha"). The suitcase costs around KD 41. There used to sell the bigger sizes of the same colored suitcase but unfortunately they were all sold out. So get the small suitcase now so you won't have to give up your chic ways when globetrotting.

I'm sorry but I really don't like this suitcase. It looks a bit cheap to me.
Sorry :) I think that might be because I prefer monochromatic bags. Samsonite and Delsey sell gorgeous suitcases :)

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

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.
