Don't cry in the fitting room // Have a Happy Shopping with few tips

Hello ladies & gentlemen, I woke up today with a wardrobe/ shopping obsession, it's the beginning of the year and am sure many would like to do the same. Sharing with you few thoughts and shopping tips coz updating the wardrobe requires some shopping YEYYYY, First of all I decided to stop hating myself or my body if cloths don't fit anymore, over the years a woman's body change, for me it's over the WEEKS! LOL






TIPS
Rule number 1: Never, Never shop when:

a- You are in hurry, "I don't have time to look around" is not in a fashionista's dictionary that's why you should give shopping time and try out all the outfits that you like a little or a lot  ALL of them coz we all know that trying the cloth on is a different story, every perception you had might change.
If you are shopping for jeans and on your way to the "casual" dept, you pass by the "evening gowns" dept. and all of the sudden a stunning gown calls you... don't think about it... run to it, try it on and straight to the cashier...you never know when a special occasion pops out.
b- When your boyfriend or hubby isn't answering the phone
c- When it isn't your hair day
d- You look very tired
e- When you are bloated

  • When deciding on an item and before buying it, lets say a blouse! think if you've got a pant or skirt that goes with it, you don't want to torture yourself once you need to wear it. 
  • Think present not future and surely not past! Think about your body now not in a month and no nostalgia ;) skinny jeans looked great on you in the past, I know you've always wore them but enough is enough, switch to straight legs if you need to ;)
  • Take a friend that you trust with you to give you an honest opinion, but sometimes you should go alone at the end the only person who will decide is you just picture yourself or take an actual picture in the outfit on you
  • If you get tired a "Pose Café" is not a bad idea at all, just dont give up
  • The price tag depends on how much you're gonna wear the item, invest in jeans and LBDs
  • Know what you are looking for, do some online reserch before you hit the mall, check my website: www.vanylia.com  for the latest trends and collections ;)
  • If you are buying online make sure you read the size chart, every brand has a different one.
  • Buy lots of accessories including scarves, anything that you like and never trow them away
  • Finally whatever happens dont't cry in the fitting room :))))

Carole Samaha New Year Style

CelebStyle
Carole Samaha New Year Style
It's amazing how Carole changed her style over the years, I remember her as the conservative/ classic artist with powerful songs carrying patriotic messages or telling a sweet love story. All of the sudden, BOOM a complete make over to become this sexy provocative singer, showing more skin in her style and daring in her songs... I personally prefer the old Carol although it would be fair to say that she looks amazing with her New Style.
New Year's Eve at Casino du Liban. Check her out on my website ;)
