Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, Nicole Richie, Eva Longoria, Rihanna
This is one trend I'm really excited for. Cuff bracelets are super trendy at the moment. I've been seeing them in magazines, on celebrities and in stores. The other day my friend Aroosa and I went to Accessorize, there were tons of cuff bangles there as well. I have my eyes on a really pretty gold one.
I've always considered cuff bracelets as boho chic because, celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens, Miley Cyrus, and Nicole Ritchie who are known for their bohemian style are rarely seen without them. However, Chunky cuff bracelets, and the perfect way to jazz up a casual or dressy outfit. It's the perfect way to kick your style up a notch with some trendy arm candy.
This is the favourite cuff bracelet from my jewellery collection. I love that it has a very ethnic feel to it.
This is the gold one I have on my wish list. Isn't it pretty?
Cuff bracelets/bangles were hot for spring but they're going to be even trendier for fall. Are you excited for this trend? Do you like cuff bangles/bracelets?

I owe my unhealthy obsession for make-up to NARS Orgasm. This is what got me hooked to make-up,YouTube beauty video's and blogs. Months of researching online to see if it was worth buying, I was catapulted in to the world of beauty and make-up. After weeks of deliberating I decided that it was time I got my hands on it. Hey, when half the world is raving about it, you know you got to have to at least give it a try. Haha!
I love nail polish, hairstyle, jewellery and make-up trends because they're easy to follow regardless of where you live in the world. You can always in-cooperate these trends in your look, no what your personal style is.
Over the years, Chanelhas come out various shades that instantly became cult favourites...I mean, does anyone else remember the black and mint green trends? I stocked up on dupes of bothc shades as if they were running out of style. The next big thing? Denim-inspired colour.The word is out that the fashion mega brand will launch three new blue shades on September 8th (in stores and on Chanel.com) and they're limited edition, e.g. only available until the end of September!
Are you, like me, going to start hunting for good dupes? Is this something you're excited to try for fall?
Remember a few years ago when the movie Bunty& Bubli came out and everyone was obsessed with Rani Mukherjee's clothes!?? That movie had influenced Pakistani fashion in such a big way from the sleeves (cuffed quarter sleeves), shalwaar to the length of the shirts, oh and how can I forget the neck line? I specifically remember my darzi telling me that everyone was asking for the turned neck line (or whatever you call it) that Rani was seen wearing in the posters and movie itself. There have been various other Bollywood films that have influenced trends in Pakistan as well over the years.
The other day I was watching an item song Kareena and Salman did for their new movie 'Bodyguard' on YouTube and I was horrified at the clothes she was wearing. Kareena always has the most stunning make-up and clothes in all her films, but in this particular song she commits one faux pas after another.
I just couldn't help but worry if her look in 'Desi Beat's' will influence our fashion scene. Short shirts are coming back, but I hope they don't get this short. I don't even know where to begin on the colour combination of her clothes (blue,silver, pink and cream all in one outfit??:s) . Who designed her clothes? Doesn't she always hire Manish Malhotra?
Don't get me wrong she is stunning and and she wears the most breathtaking saris. One of my favourite costumes Kareena has ever worn is the black and gold lehnga she wears at the end of 'Falak pay chal'. I <3 it in a big way. I also love the blue and white one she wears in the beginning. I love the contrast they did with the yellow duppatta over it.
So what is your take on 'Desi Beats'? Are you in love with Kareena's non-fashionable moment? Are you some one who is going to be influenced by it or will you stay away from it?
I've been wanting to try more products from Luscious for a while, and I finally got off the lazy wagon and got my hands on a few things (well, actually just two). Out of the two, the lipstick is definitely a favourite.
Luscious Claims:
Our long-lasting formula enriched with Vitamin E and the super antioxidant Grape Seed Oil speaks for itself. It will never change color or dry out, keeping lips moisturised and happy. We’ve added extra color for great coverage. Try it to believe it!
This is a product I rediscovered recently, and I can't believe I've ignored it for so long. I actually bought the scrub by mistake because it looks exactly like one of Zoya's creams. The hand and foot scrub is now one of my favourites products from Zoya. It's a creamy scrub with Apricots grains and oil. I use it every other day, even though on the back it says the scrub is gentle enough to be used every day. It honestly makes the hands and feet extremely soft and super clean, you can actually feel and see the difference. It has a fruity scent which lingers on the skin for a while, which I don't mind because I like fruity scents.
What I love about it is that it doesn't make my skin dry at all. Also, now I don't feel conscious of my feet when I wear flip flops. Yay!
It's designed for:
Dry hands and feet with dead skin cells
Rough heels
Dark ankles and knuckles
The scrub is inexpensive (RS185), and delivers everything it claims to. Even though I'm not a fan of the packaging, this small tube has lasted me for two months. For the price it's definitely worth a try.
PS. Zoya 'The Herbal Workshop' is available at all leading stores nationwide.
