My obsession with metallics started a few years ago and it doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, it's gotten more intense throughout the years to be honest. Therefore, the minute I lay my eyes on this gorgeous pair of metallic brogues I just had to have them. They're probably the highlight... Continue Reading →

Breathable nail varnish?!
Although this type of nail varnishes was released years ago, I've only been asked recently to review them in order to confirm whether or not they actually work. Now, I'm not sure what they mean by "breathable nail varnish" and why one would want that for their nails, but what I do know is if... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 30
Hello everyone! This week's look comes courtesy of my fabulous younger sister Safia who was willing to pose for some photos after I styled her. She bought this dress without really thinking what to combine it with, which is probably the case for 90% of the things women buy-myself included of course-but thank God it wasn't...

Nomad restaurant, Marrakech
Although I've been living in Morocco for quite some time now, I haven't been to many places in and always look online for spots others recommend. Naturally, when I decided to spend some time in Marrakech again, I went online and found this very useful Marrakech Guide article on Mimiikonn.com. Because I mainly took days... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 29
Salam everybody! I hope everyone has survived this heat wave and is ready to face the remaining days of blazing heat until August. I've had a few fun days in Marrakesh (aka Marrakech) despite the killer remperatures, I would even go to say it was actually relaxing if it weren't for my bloody phone falling... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 28
Happy Monday! I'm extremely excited because I'm posting this whilst being on much-needed holiday chillaxing with a cocktail near the pool. I wish this wasn't temporary. In a time where poeple are trying to break free from labels and stereotypes, there is nothing wrong with being the typical "girly girl" and sporting pink or florals. As... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 27
Hello everyone! With this week's look, I'm going back to the safest colour ever: black. Back in the day, I used to rock black almost every single day. Yup, we, millenials, have probably all been through that "emo phase" or gotten near it at least, the outfits haven't looked this chic and put together in... Continue Reading →

#MoroccanMonday look 26 X Eid look
Salam everyone! First and foremost, Eid mubarak (happy Eid) to you all! May Allah accept your good deeds during this holy month of Ramadan. The key piece of this week's "Eid look", if you will, is a long bright maxi dress. I've expressed my slight dislike of maxi dresses and skirts in my previous post, but... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 25
Salam everyone! This week's look is a special one, it's the first time I feature a maxi skirt on my blog and it's not for nothing. I'm not a big fan of maxi skirts/dresses, they make my walk funny, I absolutely hate when my thighs touch, and my feet somehow always end up dirty which... Continue Reading →
#MoroccanMonday look 24
Aloha dearest readers! Happy Monday! It's blazing hot today because summer is two days away and I can't wait! I know the heat gets annoying sometimes, but I can't complain (I've done enough of that during winter). I can't believe it's only the second Monday in Ramadan here in Morocco! We still still have a... Continue Reading →

During summer, we all tend to rock light washed jeans in all shapes and sizes, and I’m definitely no exception. The fact that I’m veiled does keep me from wearing daisy dukes and heavily ripped jeans, but some lightly ripped ones do tend to sneak into my wardrobe every now and again, and I definitely don’t...

#MoroccanMonday look 22
Aloha y'all! If you're anything like me, nothing can top a good tailored pair of flared trousers, especially high wasted ones. Therefore, I felt compelled to feature this pair in another #MorocanMonday look. This time, I went for a simple look to keep the focus on the earrings and turban. I chose this striped top and a...
