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.

May Favorites!

Hey Luvs, it's that time of the month where we tell you what we have been loving this past month! Here are our top 5 picks of the month!


Perfume:

Mahe: My favorite perfume has been Pleasure by Estee Lauder. I actually got it as a gift from my Aunt in Germany, so thank you to her!!!

Raahema: My favorite perfume of the month has been my B&BW Dark Kiss body spray! I absolutely love the scent!


Nail Polish:

Raahema: My favorite nail polish during the month of May has been Essie's Trophy Wife.

Mahe: I have been loving Essies Cute As a Button! It's the perfect coral for the summer. This was another one of my favorites this month that I also got as a gift from the same aunt in Germany!!


Lip Product:

Raahema: My favorite lip product for May is the Harmony Gloss 3 from Sephora. It's more like 6 products instead of one but I just love it so much that I have to include it!

Mahe: As for my favorite lip product, I have been loving my Rimmel lipstick in pink chic. It's a beautiful pink lipstick!                                                                            


Mascara:

Raahema: My favorite mascara is the Maybelline Falsies Flared mascara. The product adds length and volume to my lashes! Luv it!


Mahe: I have also been loving a Maybeline mascara. Mine is the Falsies one. It's amazing and makes my eyes pop.


Song:

Raahema: My favorite song of the month has been
"Till the Casket Drops," by ZZ Ward. Most of you
probably haven't heard this song before, but it is amazing! I
 first heard it on a Pretty Little Liars commercial.


Mahe: I have been loving the band One Direction lately. One song in particular that I am obsessed is What Makes you Beautiful! AMAZING!

Review: Stila Lip Glazes

Hey luvs it's Mahe here and today's post will be review about my favorite lip glosses ever! They are the Stila Lip Glazes, that can be purchased at Sephora. One Lip Glaze is about $22, but usually this lip product comes in either sets of three or eight. I got the pack of 8 during Black Friday (AKA the biggest shopping day of the year!!!) for only $24!!! Here are some of my FAV'S:

I love the texture of these lip glosses. They are very pigmented and come in a variety of colors.  I love the applicator of these glosses because it has a brush on the top which makes for no mess and easy application!

Some of my favorites are Dreamy, which is the perfect nude, Grapefruit, a nice bubble gum pink and Fantasy, a hot coral pink!


I definitely recommend these lip glazes. They are AMAZING!! Tell me in the comments below if you have ever tried these, and tell me how they work for you!

Fashion in Another World: KHUSSAS!!

Hey Luvs, it's Mahe and Raahema here with another Fashion in Another World! Today we will be talking about a popular shoe worn in Pakistan. The “khussa” is basically the Pakistani version of a ballet flat! Khussas come in a variety of colors and intricate designs that can be worn casually when going shopping or formally at a wedding. Down below we have a few pictures of different Khussas from casual to formal.

                        



So, what do you all think of the traditional Pakistani shoe? Would you wear them? Let us know the comments below!

Products I Regret Buying!

Hey Luvs, today I will be sharing a few products that I am not very fond of! These products did no justice for me, and are things I will not purchase again.

The first product I regret buying would be my Aussie heat protectant/shine spray. The reason is when I spray it onto my hair it gets frizzy and hard. Also, the heat protectant smells really weird and not fresh at all.
           about $4
Victoria Bombshell body mist is another item I would not repurchase. I actually didn't buy it, it came in a  little gift package that they were giving out in November. To me this body mist is way to strong and smells like cologne. This item is way to manly smelling for me!
smallest size $10
My lip bomb trio from sephora is also something I do not recommend buying. The reason being is that the lip balms are not moisturizing at all. These make my lips very dry especially the pink and clear one. The pink lip balm is very chunky when you apply it onto your lips, and very rough when you rub your lips together. The red one has a very nice pigment but like the others it is very drying.

$10
Lastly, the Forever21 nail polish in nude is also not one of my favorites. This nail polish easily chips. Though, the color is very nice the quality isn't so great.


about $3

In the comments below be sure to tell me what you do not recommend to buy! Also tell me how these products, I mentioned above work for you!

Brand to Buy: B&BW

         Hey luvs! It's Raahema here and today I have a post on one of my favorite brands..... Bath And Body Works!!!!!! I absoloutely love B&BW, because of all their different products.

Lip Glosses: The B&BW lip glosses are amazing! I love their variety of colors and scents. I also love their adorable packaging!

               
Body Sprays: The B&BW body sprays are definetely some of my favorites! I love the fact that the scents stay on all day!










         Body Lotions: Some of my favorite things about the B&BW lotions are that they are very mosturizing. The consistency is amazing! I also love they're variety of sizes!


Candles: The B&BW candles' smells are to die for! The scent of the candles also stay in your room for a long time after you burn them.


So, what do you guys think of B&BW? Leave your response in the comments below!

Spotlight Shoe!!


Hey luvs, it's Mahe and Raahema here with our second "Spotlight Shoe!" This edition of the "Spotlight Shoe" will be on our dream shoes. These shoes may not be very affordable, but they're definitely shoes that we would luv to own!

                                           Raahema's Shoe:


      My dream shoe is a slingback peep-toe from the online store Shoemint. It is part of Rachel Bilson's "Go to Shoes" collection, and is $79.98. In my opinion, this shoe is very versatile and can be worn with many different colors and prints. The beautiful watercolor pattern adds a feminine pop to any neutral colored outfit. However, the colors are subdued enough to be worn with a bright colored dress, or a bold, patterned jumpsuit. I think that this shoe would be a unique, and fashionable addition to any girl's wardrobe!

                                               
                                                 Mahe's Shoe:


My dream shoe is the Angelfish slip on boat shoe with the slight hint of cheetah print! This shoe is so cute and versatile for this season! Some of you may already know about the brand Sperry. This brand is known for there so called "boat shoes!" Sperry's are very comfortable and fashionable. During the day, I would pair these shoes with some crisp white skinny jeans and a beige button down shirt, with a skinny cheetah print belt to tie in the whole look together. For night, put on some dark wash skinny jeans, a black clutch, and a big black chunky necklace! I have been eyeing these shoes this past month, but with the "low" price of only $80, who knows when this dream will come true!!!

So what do you guys think of our DREAM SHOES? In the comments below, tell us what shoes you have been eyeing this month!
