Weekly Fashion Cravings Dec 1 - 7

With the weather getting colder, we can finally wear stockings and boots! Yay! This week I'm craving BOOTS of all shapes and sizes. They can be worn with dresses, shorts, leggings, jeans, anything. 

My advice is if you are wearing really cool boots, make sure you give them the attention they deserve by teaming them with shorter clothes (dresses, shorts, cropped pants etc). Don't hide them under wide leg jeans during the day. Instead team them with leggings or skinny jeans. 

Boots don't have to be super expensive as you can see in the SPEND pics below. You can buy a stunning pair for as little as AED 400! All I can say is ENJOY wearing them for the next few months because then it is summer again for a long time!

Happy Shopping Ladies! :)

P.S. Click on any of the boots names and brands under the pics to be directed to the boutique from which they can be purchased

Weekly Fashion Cravings Nov 24 - 30

With the weather FINALLY starting to get cooler, I am excited to start making my wardrobe 'winter-ready'! This week I'm craving sweaters and knits and all things cosy. Don't despair, none of my choices are heavy or overly-warm for Abu-dhabi but are all funky and fun. The most thing I hate are boring old sweaters.

Since we only wear winter clothes for about three months out of the whole year, I think they should be super special  with sequins, lace, ruffles, pop art, etc. Here are my 12 choices for the week: 

Happy Shopping ladies :)

P.S. Click on any of the sweater names below the pictures to be directed to their respective online stores 

SPLURGE! (Over AED 1000)

  1. PREEN - Kitten China Print Silk Front Jumper from My-Wardrobe
  2. MOSCHINO CHEAP & CHIC- Wink Cashmere Knit from My-Wardrobe

Weekly Fashion Cravings Oct 6 - 12

It has been a few weeks since I craved anything but this week I am craving all things snake and python. You can wear the print or accessorize your outfits with it. For snake or python to really look good, I personally prefer to let the print be the only stand-out one in my outfit with no other clashing prints. 

Happy Shopping! :)

This 3.1 Philip Lim sequined chiffon pants and attached skirt is perfect for this season's trend of skirts attached to pants. Wear with a plain t-shirt or blazer so as not to overdo it

Weekly Fashion Cravings Sep 11- 17

This week I'm feeling quite depressed that I missed all the Fashion Nights Out around the world and I wasn't really in the mood to shop... but for this post I pushed myself  to browse through all the new pieces sold online. After about 20 minutes, I was back in shopping mode! My picks this week don't follow any particular trend but are a mix of stuff I found attractive and eye-catching. 

Happy Shopping! :)
I'm obsessed! with this Diane Von Furstenberg gold lips satin clutch. It's in all of the brand's magazine ads this season so it'll be sure to get noticed!

Weekly Fashion Cravings Aug 27- Sep 3

This week I'm craving all things metallic and sparkly. They have a special quality to them that just seems to draw me in... Every time i see a woman wearing anything metallic in the street, I automatically turn to check out her outfit. Hope you enjoy my top ten picks this week.   Happy Shopping!

For anyone who travelled to Mykonos or Turkey this summer and regrets not buying an evil eye or hand cuff (aka me!), this is the perfect bracelet to satisfy your cravings! I'm BEYOND obsessed!

Weekly Fashion Cravings August 20- 27

This week, I had a little difficulty choosing items that I liked because seeing as its still only mid August and very hot outside, I wanted to pick items that I could not only order now but also wear now. Most items being sold online are made of wool or heavy leather and can't be worn for a while. Hope you enjoy my top ten picks this week - Happy Shopping! :)


These Miu Miu crepe shorts are super cute!

Weekly Fashion Cravings


Im not ashamed to admit that I'M OBSESSED with shopping and especially browsing the internet for new pieces that I like or want to add to my wardrobe. Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than new purchases in shopping bags, netaporter and mywardrobe packages arriving to my doorstep, and discovering items NOT sold in the UAE market (which lets face it, there are tons!).
Each week, I'm going to dedicate a post showcasing ten of my favourite picks  from various websites - hopefully you'll like some of them as well!
Happy Shopping! :)
