Shooooes

More from Villa Moda? Yes please! Today's post is focusing on fashionista's favorite accessories: Shoes. It seems that Villa Moda keeps adding new stock to their shoes collection because I would have definitely noticed these babies during my previous visits. Anyhow, check them out. 

Bottega Veneta knee-high boots
Remember Devi Kroell? Shoes and handbags designer who uses the most beautiful exotic skins and the prettiest colors? Whatever happened to her! I remember the brand used to be stocked at Al Othman. So I googled Devi and found out that she has exited her namesake brand in 2010 and now she's all about her new line, Dax Gabler, a collection of handbags, footwear and ready-to-wear that debuted at New York Fashion Week last year. Anyhow, I spotted these Devi snake skin boots which were priced at KD 349 and now priced at KD 87.

OK I'm not a huge fan of the black wedge sandals shown above. However, I was surprised to find out that they're by Opening Ceremony! When did Villa Moda stock Opening Ceremony! Oh! And on that note, I just found out through one of my friends that they even stocked ACNE! But I didn't spot any pieces while shopping there yet!

Lanvin hot pink gladiator sandals from the brand's S/S 2009 collection. Were KD 190 and now it's around KD 47.

Sigh... can't have enough of Prada and Miu Miu shoes! Love! OK, I did feature the Miu Miu heels before, but can you blame me?! Plus they're covered with the so-on-trend polka dots like shapes.

I'm not 100% sure but I think after the financial crisis, they had issues with paying off their debts and had to do some cost cutting.

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.
