Alexander Wang x H&M

And here we go again! What an amazing way to start the season! After Isabel Marant, it's the iconic Alexander Wang who's teaming up with H&M. The collaboration includes a 61-piece collection for women and men. The items reflect Wang's sportive universe with structural pieces and several tones of gray. The collaboration also includes shoes and a big variety of unisex stylish bags. To be honest, at first I didn't really like the collection globally because I found it too dark and sportive. But now that I look at the pieces individually I think they are very stylish in a casual way and value the body of the woman. What I didn't like actually is how they matched the items together on the ads; it's hard to really see the effect of every piece especially that the colors are black and gray mostly. The dresses and jackets are very feminine and modern. And the men's bags are super practical and trendy, I hope I will be able to get one in the crowd! The prices are between $10 and $350 which is quiet good for some Alexander Wang! 
The collection will be available in 250 different stores around the world (including Lebanon) on November 6. Apparently, both H&M Beirut souks and H&M Abc Achrafieh will be selling the collection but we still don't have information about the timing. I will of course keep you updated on all the details as soon as possible. Who's excited??

Because winter is all about style

I am more than excited for winter this year! I have many ideas of outfits that I would like to share with you for this season. Follow your inspiration and have fun with the materials and colors. Match wool with prints, denim or even silk. Don't be afraid to wear a lot of details and different shapes as long as you are stylish and comfortable.
Here are some ideas of outfits and of course don't hesitate to ask me questions and tips about style and shops!

Obsession of the season

Definitely my season's fashion crush, capes are the ultimate secret to style. Whether you're wearing pants, skirts or even shorts, whether you're attempting a formal or casual event, capes are here to place you in the world of fashion. Preferably wool, the item is super cozy and comfortable, and sophisticated at the same time; it depends on how you wear it. For example, if you have a fancy dinner, you can match your cape with a little black dress and your favorite heels, and for the fancy part of course a generous necklace or some big earrings. The outfit is elegant, classy and different from the usual black coat. Also, if you have a casual lunch or even a gym class, capes can directly style the outfit without trying too much. It's really an everyday item, very practical and easy to wear.
