Color Me Bag

I was at a friend's place the other day and noticed she had a leather purse beautifully decorated with artistic shapes. When I complimented her on the bag thinking that the art shapes were part of the designs, she informed me that the artistic designs on the bag were actually custom-made by an artist and that she got it as a gift from a friend of her's who lives in the states. So I asked her to give me the contact details of the artist. And naturally I contacted him and asked if I could feature him on my blog.  

The super talented and self-taught artist is Logan Real. He considers himself a Couture artist because he only paints one-of-a-kind pieces. Real only specialize and paint on luxury leather goods and exotic skins. And his goal is to become a global luxury brand, Logan Real; apparel, leather goods, footwear, textiles.

"My style is very clean, elegant, simplistic, diverse, open-minded, and has a constant sense of growth. All of my signature style work is completely free-hand; No stencil and no sketching. The amount of time and detail I put into my work is very intense and I take much pride in it." expressed Real.

"I've found a form, art/design, I'm able to clearly express my honest emotions through. All I hope, is that others will be inspired by my clarity and find their own form of self-expression."

If you're interested to have some custom work done by Logan Real, you would have to send him your handbag or wallet. For example, purchase an item online and have it mailed directly to him. Depending on the size of the leather good, his price will vary starting at $500-$3,000. It all depends how long it will take, around 1-3 weeks.

"I don't do a lot of work for the public, so if they want my originals, they need to give me full control of the design aspect. At the end of day, the value is in preserving the one-of-a-kind piece." stated Real.

Fabulous. Quick question, what's the bag itself? Who's it by?

I'm not sure what the brand is because all featured photos were provided to me by the talented artist Logan Real.

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.
