Outfit of the Day

I'm obsessed with Mira Mikati's eye-catching, quirky cool and playful designs. The cartoons, vibrant graphics, and oversized emoji characters attached to its casual chic pieces makes Mira Mikati the go-to brand for weekend dressing. I got this shirt from AlOthman Boutique .

Outfit of the Day

You can never go wrong with a torn distressed denim jacket, or maybe you can if worn with Jane-Fonda-Style-leotard!, to me, this denim jacket ups the cool ante of any of our my outfits, I got it a couple of years back from Paper Denim . I took this photo when the weather was cooler earlier in the year obviously, and I just got the chance to post about this casual and comfy outfit. I paired my denim jacket with my GAP khaki pants (I truly believe the GAP has the best and most flattering denim pants!), a grey knitted top from J crew , and a pair of soon-to-be Gucci 's worn and torn fur-lined loafers . And here's a close up of how I decorated my denim jacket just to give it a funky twist. A Robot! How lucky am I to get this cute little robot pin as a gift from my dearest friend! According to her, the manufacturer of the pin takes inspiration from the precision and quality of military embroideries. It's such a small but very precious gift.

The One That Got Away....

If there is one thing I regretted not buying from the Spring/Summer 2016 collections is this Rosie Assoulin crochet jug bag. I had the opportunity to pre-order it but I was a bit hesitant of its practicality. I wish I didn't hesitate and went for it, because I've been looking for it for months now and it's sold out technically everywhere! It would have been the perfect match with my Ramadan caftans. Oh well, if you happen to know a place I could still find out, please do let me know!  Moral of this post: When you heart stops a beat at an accessory or a piece of clothing you really really like, go for it (provided that you have the means to splurge that it).

In My Closet: High Impact Florals

It was the explosion of florals on this Preen by Thornton Bregazzi long sleeves peplum top that caught my fashion radar last season. Pretty silk blooms all hand-stitched, decorated with small beads and silk threads, made this top my perfect pic for parties and formal events. I paired mine with a pair of cropped black satin pants and some colorful jeweled earrings.

So I haven't been writing much reviews on here, but once I heard about multi-talented Bahrain-based interiors and space designer Ammar Basheir's latest retail adventure, I just had to post about it (and kick start my blogging days maybe?).
