Shopping Around D-Mall

I always make sure to check out Chanel boutique in Dubai as it has waaaay better selection than Kuwait's Chanel .  It's either that, or the really nice items never hit the shelves in Kuwait in the first place and probably get stored inside for special clients. I find Chanel 's seasonal reincarnations of its classic bag  to be amusing and fun. I have seen this bag take on more unexpected details in unique colors and textures.  They're not always a hit though, but fun to look at. Here I'll be sharing with you some examples of this season's hits and misses. This on-trend and timeless hot fuchsia-colored bag was my favorite one in-store.

The denim textured bag? A miss. White bag? a Hit.

Black bag with lace butterfly detail? hmm..not bad.
Metallic bag? Yawn. black and white Camilla flower? Yawza!! love!

two-thumbs up goes to this orange black and white checkered bag.

MISS MISS MISS
Moving on, loved this Louis Vuitton jewels encrusted clutch
And the details on this LV gown

McQueen's fringed iconic clutch. Heart!
The best bag in exotic leather this season goes to Lanvin.

Saved her best for last, Alberto Guardiani lipstick heels in patent leather

Maybe because Dubai has a bigger purchasing power since it's a touristic city? I don't know :\

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.
