When I first saw this girl, I was dumb founded. She is absolutely stunning. Her style is very unique and pushes a lot of boundaries. I love her. I dont think I would have the guts to wear most of the stuff she wears. Just goes to show that you dont have to be thin to be fashionable. You can check out more of her personal style on http://www.nadiaaboulhosn.com/.

I LOVE... Body chains/body bling

Fashion is known for reinventing itself, and that is awesome but it is always great when something new comes up and boy oh boy am I excited. I have never seen this before, it might have been around before but this is the first I hear of it or see it. Body chains have got me excited for summer. I can't wait. You can wear it over a a plain white/black/blue/green/coral or whatever colour you fancy, t-shirt and just throw on some jeans and you are ready to go. Seeing that it is winter mo Mzansi, you can wear it over a tight-fitting plain jersey/poloneck/long-sleeved shirt with sleek or pulled back hair. When accessorising with body chains, keep all other accessories to a minimum. I saw a couple at Sass Diva today so I guess a lot of other stores should have them as well. I cannot wait to get one.

I Love... Statement earrings

I love accessories. I think they liven up every outfit and can give an old outfit an old twist. I have noticed big statement earrings have taken fashionistas by storm. I love it. They are best worn with your hair tied up and away from your face so that they are able to stand out. But hey, everyone makes their own rules. :-)
They are all the rage so you can find them everywhere. Sass Diva, Woolworths, Mr Price, YDE, Edgars, vintage shops, EVERYWHERE! So go knock yourselves out.

I LOVE.... Harem pants/tailored sweatpants

When this trend first came into fashion, back in 2007, I was a bit sceptical. My sister, who dressed me back then, was not too fond of it either so I did not have a pair. That was Summer 2007. Now they are back, thicker and cooler. I love them. They are comfortable and you can wear them with almost anything. I have seen really awesome ones at Vertigo in an assortment of colours. Since they are all the rage, I think you can find a pair at your favourite store. Knock yourselves out
