Mixed Feelings

The moment I saw Jimmy Choo x Rob Pruitt collection featured in an international fashion magazine, I immediately had mixed feelings about it. Glitter?!! Angel Panda and Devilish Panda??! Zebra and Cheetah prints mixed with colors of the rainbow AND lace?!?!? That was too much to handle and absorb! I'd describe it as Nicki Minaj-ish crazy (some pieces were fun to look at though)! Anyhow, when I saw some of the pieces up close at the brand's boutique in the Avenues, I kind of (I said kind of) warmed up to the idea of wearing the Anouk lace-covered leather pumps featured in the first photo, even though they looked very 80's, but I loved their fit and the way they carried me. The flats however were definitely not my cup of tea.

It is worth mentioning that Rob Pruitt is a New York artist  known for his jaw dropping and shocking art. You can find out more about him and his work by clicking here.

LOL! I think it's the designer's way of being creative and present unexpected details.

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.
