Furla and I

No one can denies that the "shopping bag" style for handbags will always be one of the main bag styles, that will never go out of style, I personally prefer it as I carry a lot of things with me on the go. One of the shopping bags that caught my attention was the "Furla and I” 's new shopping, not only it's comfortable, versatile, and functional, it is also double face, so it's like 2 bags in 1,that you can alter according to what you are wearing, how cool is that?!




They come in different combinations of colors; from red lipstick together with grape violet or with zebra printing, with the explosion of neon colors such as fuchsia, yellow and orange together with black.

Furla store has just opened at Stars Avenue, 1st floor.

Dinner @ Olio

Last week I had dinner at the Italian Restaurant Olio, which is suited at the ground floor at the luxurious stars avenue mall by the Malek road. The restaurant overlooks the small dancing fountain which is located at the heart f the mall. Olio is family friendly with a massive Italian based menu, that I took time to go through all of it.
The restaurant send a complimentary freshly baked bread with thyme along a tiny plate of black olives paste, I started my meal with a creamy tomato soup, it was scrumptious tasted of fresh tomatoes not the acidic taste of the canned tomato paste, then a chicken and  mushroom stuffed ravioli in white creamy sauce followed my soup. I really wanted to have pasta that night, but when I looked at the menu there were too many dishes to choose from, and they all looked tasty I couldn't make my mind so I asked the waiter to recommend me something, and he said that ravioli will be the best choice when it comes to pasta, and he was right it was mouthwatering delicious.I was sad that my meal didn't leave me with a roam for desert, I really wanted to try it out, as it looked extraordinary, but next time I will for sure.

 I really had a good time, thank you Olio for your hospitality and delicious food.





Must Have Makeup for Summer

Three weeks ago I added three of "Benefit" cosmetics' wonderful  makeup products into my makeup drawer. and since then I feel I can't live without them. As I said before, Benefit is one of my favourite makeup brands ever, they never fail to impress me with the quality of their products and their so beautiful and unique packing.
 The three products that I tried recently are" Hello Flawless" liquid foundation, "They are Real Mascara", and "Bathina" body balm, as always I took my mere time trying them, to give you a completely honest review.



Hello flawless; the truth is that I really had hard time finding the right foundation for me, as I require a lot of  specifications to be in my foundation, like to be very light weighted, has good coverage but gives a very natural look at the end, to be with creamy texture but at the same time not oily based and lastly to match my colour which is very pale at that moment, so I never find my colour. But when I tried Hello Flawless all my requires was instantly fulfilled,it's the best thing for me, it comes in 9 different shades, so finding your complexion shade is easy. It has a medium coverage and leaves the  face so silky and radiant, as it has Oxygen hydrating ability that allows the skin to breath,it also has SPF 25, and contains vitamins C and E to prevent aging. What else could you ever need in a foundation?!

The perfect Foundation

My colour is Ivory



The second item is the "They Real Mascara": another miraculous product from Benefit, it gave me both length and volume and high curling effect, it's your only savoir if you are like me and hate applying false lashes. the wand has a special design to separate the lashes away from each other and curl them at the same time.





Lastly the Bathina, the best way to indulge your self after a long day on the beach and before heading to summer parties, apply that glimmering body balm on your tanned legs and arms and go tease the other girls ;) I really loved it, first time I tried I applied with my finger tips so it didn't give me the effect I desired, but when I applied with the puff  "which is written in the instruction box, lazy me I forgot to read" it gave me incredible results, it does has a nice smell too.





Another thing you have to try is the POREFESSINAL pore minimizer, which I reviewed before READ HERE.

You can find Benefit Cosmetics in all faces and Sephora stores if you are in GCC and in Egypt they are available at Sephora Toi and RAMFA stores.

Souad loves Polka

*This post is specially dedicated to my lovely mum, who adores the Polka Dots patterns.

Who doesn't love Souad Hosny?! She was and still is Egypt's sweetheart. I do consider the great actress to be one of the most beautiful creatures created by God. Beside being so talented and loved , she also  had an amazing sense of style and grace.

Whenever I watch a movie for her with my mum, my mum won't stop commenting on her gorgeous and so feminine dresses, as I mentioned before my mum just loves the Polka Dots patterns so when Souad appears with a Polk Dots dress, my mum jumps from happiness. I couldn't help but noticing that Souad really loved her Polka Dots, so I decided to do a post about that, I was really surprised with the huge number of the Polka Dots outfits she owned, I did my best to get as many photos as I could. I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I loved collecting them over weeks.
