i saw the sign and it’s prada

As if the universe conspired, I paid Kamikaze a visit again today. And to my delight, I saw the signs. Sale!!! The signs weren’t there last Saturday when I picked up my Gucci loafers. You could imagine my relief when I saw that my shoes weren’t on sale. Otherwise I would have ripped the floors apart and cried. Kidding. No, but really.

Anyway, I picked up two items. And here’s the first one.

It’s a tie from Prada called Arabesque, named so for the repeating geometric forms of seemingly vegetal design.

I loved the color – which I later found out the translation of – Hematite. It’s this bluish grey hue with a hint of silver giving the tie a sober sheen. Made in Italy of 100% silk, this understated tie is just perfect on a crisp white shirt.

We love Prada.

    great tie! the colour is just so versatile. btw, arabesque means its arabic-inspired. probably from the Alhambra in Spain.
