ALOTHMAN Outlet *Fabulous*

Today I paid my first visit to ALOTHMAN outlet in a last attempt to find the perfect bronze shoes to match my Eid outfit. Not only did I find the perfect pair, they were Christian Louboutins, and dangerously discounted! ;)

I ended up walking out the outlet with two shopping bags.

The colour of this lovely Loubies was excatly what I was looking for. They are a mixture of patent leather and velvet. And with a price tag of KD95 how could I resist! The pair were originally priced at KD315.

I also got this gorgeous pair of Pierre Hardy everning shoes. They really flatter the feet and make them look fabulous. Discounted price tag was KD135. Originally priced at KD449

I’m extremely impressed with the collection and the prices available in the outlet. I think this is the closest you can get to a great bargain in Kuwait. It’s totally worth a visit.

ALOTHMAN Outlet is Located in Salmiya, Mariam Complex, 1st floor, above ALOTHAM boutique.

Do It Yourself Pearl Necklace

I was browsing through Martha Stewart website for some home storage and organizing tips. She has some great simple ideas that make a huge difference in your home. What’s more lovely is that all her ideas are DIY projects and budget friendly.

I stumbled upon this lovely necklace by coincidence in the crafts section. Im not much into crafts myself. But sometimes my hands just itch to create something from scratch. I was surprised with the easy steps involved in making this sophisticated looking necklace. It looks gorgeous attached to a plain top.

This project will definitely have a spot in my to do list!

You can view the step by step instructions in Martha’s website here.

Pump Up Your NESPRESSO Drinks

I’ve had this machine for a year now. It never fails with its yummylicious lattes and cappuccinos. here are some products I use to pump up my NESPRESSO coffee drink once in a while. When I really want to indulge!

You will never drive your car to buy coffee ever again.

STARBUCKS Vanilla Flavor Syrup: This vanilla syrup is the base for Starbuck caramel macchiato. Add 1 or 2 shots in your NESPRESSO latte. You can get this vanilla syrup at any STARBUCKS branch in Kuwait for KD 3. There are other flavors available too, but I liked vanilla the most.

HERSHEY’S Genuine Chocolate Syrup: Drizzle this rich chocolate syrup on your NESPRESSO cappuccino. It suppresses my cravings for the Mocha Deluxe drink from The One Cafe. You will find Hershey’s chocolate sauce at most co-ops.

MONIN Caramel Sauce: If you love caramel, drizzle this yummy sauce on your NESPRESSO cappuccino drinks. Use it along with the STARBUCKS Vanilla Flavor Syrup to create your own Caramel Macchiato. You can find MONIN products in Sultan Center.

M&S Belgian Chocolate Stirrers: These heavenly chocolate stirrers melt right in your drink and your mouth. I love their taste and texture after I dip them in my NESPRESSO cappuccino or latte. You can dip and eat them along with your drink,  or you can have them completely melt for a chocolate kick in your coffee.

So Craving It These Days!

The Dubai Branch of California Pizza Kitchen has the yummiest cheeseburger pizza I ever tasted (Mind you, it’s the only cheeseburger pizza I ever tasted!) But it is so good. With the avocado topping, I am officially in pizza heaven. Not to mention that this pizza, along with the theatrical release of “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” in Dubai, is the reason my friend and I decided to go to Dubai in the morning and return back in the evening last July. Of course this did not happen. Jazeera Airways had “delayed” their 8:20pm flight 10 hours, to fly at 6:15am next day!

They say “Delayed”. I say “rescheduled”.

Thank god for Dubai International Airport Hotel, located above the duty free shops. Hotel was amazing. Flight was not.

Anyway, back to the pizza.

The Cheeseburger Pizza is not to be missed. If you happen to be in Dubai, try it out at the California Pizza Kitchen in Dubai Mall.
