River Island is a really retro shop but I dont really shop from it, I rarely do! On the weekend, I went in River Island at Dubai Mall and saw lots of dresses that were exactly the same as famous brand dresses but sold cheaper. They're actually smart because most of the similar dresses were crazy like the versace ones are actually in good quality & price! Be sure to check their latest collection, loves it! Check out the dresses that are exactly the same as brand dresses & you can see the collection on their website too www.riverisland.com !

The Mary Katrantzou x Topshop lookalike dress from Zara
I was skimming through Zara's April women collection, and a beautiful dress caught my eye ( The rest of the collection was not very impressive) and out of nowhere I thought that it reminded me of The Mary Katrantzou dress for Topshop! What do you think? Any resemblance? |

Latest Trend in Abayas: The waist belt Abaya
For me, I love designing my own Abaya rather than buying a ready made Abaya because not all shops have those Abaya's that catch my attention. Lately, I went to do some Abaya shopping with my mom & sister to an unknown shop my mom found out about recently. The designs weren't fabulous buy few pieces were! I also noticed around everyone's wearing Abaya's with a belt around their waist & I fell in love with the trend and had to get me one and I did found the perfect ready made Abaya in that unknown shop in Ajman! My opinion of this trend is I think a simple pair of belt can change your whole look with an Abaya & make it look gorgeous. Another advantage is that it makes you also look slimmer too! Ha!
The Perfect Shoes
Why do most women spend most of their money on a pair of expensive heels?
Many of the world's most famous shoe designers such as Giuseppe Zanotti, Christian Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik, Steve Madden and many more have created unforgettable pair of shoes that made millions of celebrities and fashionistas go crazy!
Now ask yourself, would you buy a hot pair of Louboutin's over lots of t-shirts for the same price? My answer would definitely be a yes! There are about 40% of women who would disagree with me, but what about the other 60%? Just a pair of heels would create a different illusion to an outfit that would not be recognized until those shoes make a statement. Just a pair of heels is made by artists and was made very carefully therefore the woman who buys that pair would feel very special and confident. A shoe defines a woman & I loved this quote 'Women & shoes, tell me about your shoes and I'll tell you who you are.'
Finding the perfect shoes is a different story, more like a cinderella story. Oh & cinderella's a proof that a new pair of shoes can change your life ;). Would you buy some cheap $10 sandals over a $346 pair of Jimmy Choo sandals? Maybe yes, but I promise you that those $10 sandals would just last over a month or so but those Jimmy Choo's would last about 2-3 years & yes i've experienced that with a pair of LV shoes that now last about 4 years.
Life's too short, so get as many shoes as you want!
Loads of love,

You Me & Charlie 'Secret Garden' inspired Shoot
Today I discovered Dianna Agron's new webiste which was launched in december & I loved the recent flawless photoshoot inspired by the secret garden. I thought of it as something very creative and beautiful, all about magic & nature. Kind of hippie though! Here's what Dianna told justjared.com “www.YOUMEANDCHARLIE.com is a playground of sorts, allowing us to come together as friends and artists, allowing us to be inspired, and create”
What do you think of the shoot?
Violent lips
I'm sure you've all heard of violent lips, well if not it's a temporary lip tattoo shop were you can just put it on for crazy & fun events! I first thought of it as worthless but I couldn't resist buying it when I saw it in Topshop-Dubai Mall. I've seen it few months back when the kardashians & jenners tweeted about it, I definitely fell in love with Kylie's union jack tattoo but unfortunately it wasn't available in Topshop so I got the red leopard tattoo, I hopefully will get more but I'll have to try this one first! Oh & if you wanna order The Union Jack or the American Flag ( My 2 favs) visit their official website www.violentlips.com or visit their Facebook page to stay updated.

The Story of Keep Calm and Carry On
Mostly in 2011, People started obsessing with 'Keep calm and...' & No one ever thought of what's the story behind it and who created it. I am one of those people. I was going through my timeline on twitter and I saw a tweet of the link to this video so I watched the video a couple of times and got amazed. Its so interesting, if you watch this video you'll discover that the 1st keep calm and carry on poster was made decades ago and we just discovered it. The bookstore that has that poster is a place I want to visit before I die, Hopefully in the future. Anyways you have to play the video.
