Hey luvs, we are Mahe and Raahema. We are two cousins who, despite the geographic distance that divides us, share the same love for fashion. Between living in the Garden state, NJ and the Keystone state, PA, we come across many different people with many unique styles. We are Pakistani-Americans and while we straddle two very different cultures, we find a good balance between the two. Our sense of style is influenced by our religious background as well as our culture. We will fill you in on all the things we are loving this season.xoxo.

Miranda Kerr: Look For Less!

Hey Luvs! It's Raahema here with a "Look For Less!" Today I am going to be recreating supermodel Miranda Kerr's everyday style! Enjoy!


Miranda Kerr Look For Less


Miranda Kerr has an amazing style and was recently seen wearing a casual outfit while out with her son Flinn. Now, although Miranda's outfit is probably extremely expensive, you can easily get this look for a lot less! The first item I found was this light gray tank top from Forever21. This tank is very similar to Miranda's and retails for only $7.80. I paired the tank with a leopard print skirt, also from Forever21. This skirt is almost identical to Miranda's and is only $19.80. For shoes, I added a pair of black combat boots, $42.50, from Charlotte Russe. As for accessories, Miranda kept it pretty simple with just a tan fedora and some black sunglasses. I found this very similar fedora from Forever21 for just $10.90.
 
I hope you enjoyed my "Look for Less!" Leave any post suggestions in the comments below!

New Years Eve Outfit Ideas!

Hey Luvs! It's Raahema here with a post to show you an idea for your New Years Eve outfit!
 
 
Untitled #10
 
So, I started off with a sparkly silver dress to give the outfit an overall feel of glitz. This sheath dress is from Forever21 and retails for $38. Then, I added a pair of spike studded ballet flats from Charlotte Russe. The silver on the toe matches the dress beautifully and the spikes give the look the perfect amount of edge. The shoes cost about $30. For jewelry I wanted to keep it simple, adding only some stacked black and silver bracelets (Charlotte Russe $6). Lastly, I paired the dress with a gorgeous bow clutch. This one from Nordstrom is incredibly expensive at $395, but you can easily find much less expensive versions at Forever21, or even Target.
 
I feel like this outfit would be the perfect way to bring in the New Year with a bang!

Holiday/ Winter Outfit Ideas!

Hey Luvs! It's Raahema here to show you an idea for a
winter/holiday outfit! Enjoy! 

Untitled #11
 
So, for this outfit I started off with simple skinny jeans. On top, I added a beutiful reindeer print sweater from A&F, $72. To keep with the warm and cozy feel of the look, I paired the sweater and jeans with some warm, gray Cardi UGGs. For bags, I added a quilted heart purse from Forever21 for $25. In my opinion, the bag gives the look a softer, more delicate feel. And of course, I couldn't forget the winter accesories, so I gave the outfit a pair of cream colored gloves and a matching knit hat! I think that this outfit is perfect to wear during the holidays, or on a chilly, winter day!

Back To School: Hanna Marin!


Hey Luvs! Today, is the third installment of my back to school Pretty Little Liars series. Today I will be a post on Hanna Marin, and how she dresses in the show!

Back To School: Hanna Marin!



So, Hanna's sense of style is very girly and very pretty. To accomplish this I started out with a very pretty ruffled shirt from Kohls. Hanna also likes wearing skinny jeans so I added those as well. To add some detail to the look, I added some gold and silver bracelets. Hanna is also a huge fan of heels, so I finished the outfit with some lacy white ones.

Back to School: Aria Montgomery!

Hey Luvs, it's Raahema here with a back to school fashion blog for all of you! In today's post, I will show you a great outfit for back to school inspired by my favorite character from the show Pretty Little Liars, Aria Montgomery! I will also do Hannah, Spencer, and Emily in the near future.

Untitled #6


So, Aria's style is very unique and different. She loves wearing bright bold colors which is why I opted for this fun yellow dress from Forever21. She also loves making girly outfits more edgy and is often seen wearing dresses with leather jackets and combat boots. The brown boots and jacket above are both from Charlotte Russe. Aria also always wears big statement jewelry which is why the gold bracelet from Juicy Couture is a perfect piece to complete the look. This outfit is very "Aria," and perfect for back to school!

So, what did you think of my Aria inspired look? Would you wear it? Leave your response in the comments below!

Trend To Try: Jeggings!

Untitled #5



Hey luvs, it's Raahema here with a post about one of my favorite clothing items..... Jeggings! The jeans/leggings combo look and feel great! I'm absolutely obsessed with jeggings because they look just like skinny jeans but are twice as comfortable! Jeggings are also very versatile and you can wear them with many different looks! I like to wear jeggings with cute tops and accessories.

What to wear to the..... Mall!

Hey Luvs! It's Raahema here with a post about what I would wear to the mall with friends!

Untitled #4











This outfit is great to wear to the mall because is simple but cute. I would always recommend just wearing a loose tshirt or tank top when going to the mall. You want to wear something comfortable but still fashionable. I paired the cream and silver top with dark skinny jeans and nude colored gladiators. The reason I chose flat sandals is because when I am walking around in the mall, my feet get tired and I definitely don't want to be wearing four inch heels! For accessories i kept it simple, just adding some stacked bracelets and a small clutch.

So, What did you all think of my "Mall Outfit?" Leave your response in the comments below!

What To Wear... To Lunch With Friends

Hey Luvs! It's Raahema here, and today I put together a look that I find would be perfect for going to lunch with friends. This outfit is great for a casual lunch during the summer!

Untitled #2
 
 
 
This outfit is great for going out to lunch this season because of the bright colors of the pieces. The colorful top is light and breezy, while still adding a bold pattern to the look. The red clutch and shoes accent the outfit perfectly, by picking up the red in the shirt. Lastly, the charm bracelet adds a delicate touch to the look!

Trend To Try: Nautical!

Hey luvs, it's Raahema here with a post about one of my favorite trends, the nautical trend! The nautical trend, in my opinion, is fresh and cute looking, especially for the summertime!





Here is a nautical outfit that I think would look very cute this season!





Untitled #1




This outfit fits the nautical category perfectly with the navy blue, and red color scheme. The navy,  top from Hollister goes perfectly with the skinny jeans and blue flats. The top retails for about $50, while the flats are about $40. I recommend buying similar pieces for more inexpensive prices. The jeans range from $30-$40. The anchor necklace from Forever21 is about $4 and adds the perfect touch of "nautical" to the outfit. The bracelets add some detail to the otherwise simple outfit, and blend well stacked on top of each other. The gold and silver bracelet mix metals, but still works because of the gold and silver necklace. The golden knot bracelet gives more of the nautical feel to the outfit. Lastly, the red and blue rope bracelet adds a pop of color to the look!

So, what do you think of the nautical trend? Leave your response in the comments below!
