My Bitchy Resting Face

Hey Lovelies keeping within the theme of last weeks post My Spring Accessories Wishlist 2016 I realized I have never written a post on handbags which is an absolute "shocker" as all my friends and family know I have a crazed obsession for handbags......among other things;).

I have seen a huge trend in crossbody bags over the last year or so with brands like Céline, Phillip Lim and of course Chloés Faye (seen above) and Drew bag which is always spotted hanging off the arms of pretty much every Fashion it girl and now the great thing for all us regular folk we can find similar bags on the high street from Zara, Topshop and Charles & Keith for a fraction of the price.

So.....High End Vs High Street let me know what you prefer, Enjoy!

1. Valentino- Shoulder bag.
2. Anya Hindmarch- Crossbody all over wink stickers.
3. Chloe- Inez drawstring bag.
4. Givenchy- Antigona mini soft-grained leather tote.

One of my board's on Pinterest (which I can't get enough of) is a collection of Muslim/Modesty fashion looks. I created this board ages ago and it has become my most followed board thus far. So below I am sharing with you some of my favorite fashion looks from that particular board of young women around the globe who have managed to combine their love for fashion whilst keeping within their faith.

Enjoy!

Hi Lovelies, 

Hope you have all had a good week and that it hasn't been too crazy hectic, I cant believe we are already in to the 4th week of Jan...shocking!

Anyway as this is sort of the beginning of a New Year the start of new things to come and with some of us going back in to the corporate world like myself (sigh;), I thought this may be useful for those of you who are in the same boat as me and in need of a little inspiration on key items to start off your Workwear Wardrobe with, or maybe you are just looking to revamp your Workwear look.

I have decided to go with 5 Items as I didn't want anything too complicated to start off with, this is realistically close to what I currently have at the moment and would be a great start for anyone.

So kicking off;

Occhiu midi & pinky Ring

Hey Lovelies,

Back with another #fashionfridayfix....

I have been following this designer for some time now on Instagram which is where I discovered her. I love, love, love her jewellery and can only wish one day to own a piece of her collection. Her name is Leila Kashanipour and she is the founder of LEIVANKASH. 

The thing that initially attracted to LEIVANKASH Instagram page was the uniqueness of her designs. I don't feel like I have seen anything like it before and the photo's taken show the many ways you can wear her jewellery, you can keep it real simple by wearing them on their own or if you want to go all out there is lot's of cool photo's on her page showing the many way's you can stack her bangles, add a hand cuff and adorn your finger's with a couple of her rings and midi rings.

Oculus Collection

Besides the gorgeous design's they are all made of quality (mostly 22kt Gold Plated) material which for me is a plus as much as I enjoy wearing fashion jewellery from H&M and similar places, those metals do tend to irritate my skin when I wear them for too long.












I absolutely adore that ear cuff and the rings from this collection.....I want I want!

I discovered Remi's Blog on Google Plus about 4 months ago after following a link to one of her Fashion Post’s. I am really in to the minimalist look at the moment and find Remi does it so well. All the clothes Remi styles are effortless and easy to incorporate in to your wardrobe. Although her style is mostly minimalist, there is a edginess to some of her looks which I immediately associate with London.......probably why I am so drawn to her style. 

Below are some of my favourite looks from Hands of Style;




























































When you have time you must go and check out Remi's blog Hands of Style for some more really cool looks. In all her Fashion post's there is always a little explanation in to the inspiration behind that particular look. She also blogs about other things beside's fashion, like beauty and travel. 

I will leave below all links to her social media so you can easily find her;

Hey Lovelies,

Wishing you all a Happy Friday!!

We are back again #fashionfridayfix this time I am sharing with you all a brand I have been following for YEARS....Sika Designs. 

Sika Design is a UK brand where the garments are made in Ghana using locally sourced fabric which tends to be tie dye, batik and wax prints. They model their designs on the trend and style of London's urban chic (their word's) using traditional African textile. They do have an online boutique which has recently been updated along with a new logo and they now have a collection with ASOS called Sika X asos which is amazing, you must check it out!

I first came across this brand visiting my local market in London, Greenwich Market. At that time their shop was located inside the market square and I remember when I first walked passed it and having to turn back on myself after spotting a colourful dress in the window. I think what really caught my eye was the style of the dress and the fabric that was used. The structure of the dress was very modern European and then the use of fabric was an African print which I thought was very unique and interesting as I had never seen this type of contrast before.

Below I am sharing with you some of my favourite items from their collection;

All Things Mochi- Accessories

Hi Lovelies

Happy Friday!!! Sorry for missing last week's #fashionfridayfix. As I had said in my last post I am having major issues with my laptop which has been making it impossible to put together a post!Urgh.. Anyway its "Friday" the start to the weekend....wishing my life away!

This weeks #fashionfridayfix is a brand called All Things Mochi who are based in Dubai.
I discovered this brand on Instagram and have recently seen a large growth in their followers which is not surprising when you see their culturally driven designs with a modern twist.

Zuzu Cape Jacket

I read that the founder of All Things Mochi is Palestinian born Ayah Tabari which now makes sense in terms of the design of the clothing where you can clearly see her roots have a massive influence even to go as far as naming one of her collections Palestine, which just so happens to carry the popular Zuzu Cape that I absolutely adore and could only dream of owning!

They employ local artisans from each country to make their clothing applying traditional techniques using local fabrics and embroidery. Even from their photo's you can see the quality and intricacy that has gone in to each piece which adds that speciality and uniqueness to the clothing.

I cannot tell you enough how much I am obsessed with this brand and I always find myself stalking their Instagram page looking for fashion inspiration! Their page is fun, bright, colourful and you can find great idea's on how to style their clothing! 

Sharing with you below are some of my favourite items from their collections:

Thailand Collection- Lulu Crop & Midi Skirt

Uzbek Collection

Uzbek Collection- Midi Skirt

Jaipur Collection- Just Smile Jacket

If you are interested and want to see more on this Brand you can find them on Instagram and their web page is www.allthingsmochi.com.
