Firstly, let me explain what the Met Gala is exactly. The Costume Institute Gala in New York is the biggest event on the fashion fundraising calendar. First held in 1948 to encourage donations from New York's high society. Nowadays, the most famous faces from fashion, film, music and art come together to raise money for the Met's...

Probably my favourite fashion week if I were to pick one, as it never disappoints. Here are the shows that stood out to me and made me fall deeper in love with creativity and fashion in general: 1- Dior: Opening the show with a very covered Ruth Bell instantly set the tone for what's to...

Continuing fashion week reviews of my favourite shows, here is what I thought about #MFW A/W 2018: 1- Gucci: One of the most sought after brands and designers these couple of years. One could only imagine what Alessandro Michele could present to outdo himself, and you should definitely keep an open-mind. Each piece was made... Continue Reading →
Although I saw several beautiful pieces in different shows, I had higher expectations for London Fashion Week. These are a few of the shows that stood out to me. Hopefully MFW and, most exciting of all, PFW will make up for my slight disappointment in London. 1- Burberry (S/S 2018): One of, if not the... Continue Reading →
My passion for fashion goes well beyond spending a salary on clothes in nearby shops. I absolutely love the idea of watching a big group of creative and talented souls show us their version of what to expect for the seasons ahead. Therefore, just like I did with last season's fashion weeks in NY, London,... Continue Reading →
Finally, fashion week is coming to an end, and what better way to end this year's fashion than in the city of lights with spectacular designers and their stunning creations? Here are a few of my favourite shows and what I liked about them. Christian Dior: I never thought I'd see a Dior collection so... Continue Reading →
Continuing my fashion week review with this Milan Fashion Week post. Something worth noting is how Europe is surprisingly not as open-minded as the U.S when it comes to representing all body-types on the runway. I haven't seen a plus-size model in any show so far. Let's hope Paris (although I'm not holding my breath)... Continue Reading →
After following fashion week for a few years now, I decided to start blogging about it and give you my 2 cents when it comes to my favourite shows. Stay tuned for the rest of the shows in London, Milan and Paris! Tom Ford: In my opinion, Tom Ford shows re always bound to be... Continue Reading →
As Autumn approaches, it's time to look into the perfect outfits for this transitional season - although it's still 30 degrees over here-. As much as I dislike wearing pieces that make my thighs rub together such as maxi skirts and dresses, I couldn't squeeze into a pair of jeans in this heat even if... Continue Reading →
When picking out my outfit whilst I'm feeling a bit down -which was the case here- I tend to grab pieces that either remind me of happier times with loved ones or were actually gifted to me by them; case in point, this beautiful pair of sunglasses, ballerinas and the cute handbag which were...

Most of the time, fashion is used to express one's inner emotions at that moment, and that's what I featured in this week's look. After watching the badass Wonder Woman film - finally- as well as read several empowering articles, I found myself drawn to a more demure yet strong look. The corset on top... Continue Reading →
The minute I saw these trousers, I instantly got the complete look in my head even though I got them for an entirely different one. The extremely high waist, silver buttons and the somewhat faded stripes gave them a vintage rock look that I adore. An oversized and destroyed grey vintage band tee, silver chains...

Firstly, Eid mubarak to all the Muslim readers! May Allah accept our prayers and good deeds. As for the non-Muslims, it's another #MoroccanMonday look! 😀 Although I think traditional clothes are stunning I don't really wear them unless I have to (eg. weddings), I just don't feel comfortable in long garments such as the typical...

During this beautiful (hot!) weather, one can't help but go for comfortable airy pieces. Therefore, I decided to rock my trusted Canadian tuxedo for this week's look. In order to keep the look from being too basic, I decided to layer the denim button-down on top of my floral see-through top, I left the button-down... Continue Reading →
I don't care if you're Gisele Bündchen, tights are not pants as the great Blaire Waldorf once said, and that also applies to leggings in my opinion. Not only do they look tacky on their own, they also show your lack of creativity. I'm not the biggest fan of leggings and I certainly wasn't a... Continue Reading →
