Affordable Accessories

Last season I was inspired by fashion runway and icons and their facination with fur stoles, colored or natural, worn over the shoulder a la Prada style or hung on bags a la Olsens style. So I started searching for a faux fur stole key chain.to hang it on my oversized bag, kind of like Louis Vuitton's S/S 2010 handbags. I couldn't find any, and with time I lost interest. And to my surprise, the other day while I was shopping at H&M. I have found 3 different styles of the faux fur key chains (shown above), and their price range between KD 1 - KD 1.500! BUT I didn't like the quality at all. They weren't soft at all. but hey! that should be expected since they're priced so cheap!

I think this season H&M has the coolest accessories on High Street boutiques level. Check out this set of rings shaped as a bunny, a fox, and some tree branches.

These pair of tassle earrings are so on-trend. I've been lusting over Gwyneth Paltrow's hot pink tassel earrings which were seen worn by the chic acctress recently. I can't seem to find a photo of her online wearing them.
This green soft leather bag with black straps from Zara looks like a Marni bag! Price tag? KD 45.500
I liked this mustard colored oversized leather clutch from Zara. I would like smashin' with denim-on-denim looks.  And it has a hint of Celine. Price tag? KD 29.500.

I know which photo you're referring to ;) But that's not the one. I swear I saw her photo very recently wearing a beige top I think and wearing hot pink tassel earrings that fell to her shoulders... I'll just need to search more for it!

But thanks for sharing ;)

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.
