Look of the day: Thanks God Its The Weekend

Its been a long time since I felt this tired during the week

So today I was really glad it is the weekend!

Look of the day:

Top: H&M

Sheer Wide Pants: Zara

Belt: Moschino

Multiple Color Silly Bands: Marc Jacobs- available at TaLyan's

Necklace: Tiffany and Co

Ring: H&M

Bag: LV

Nail polish: Chanel

I then threw on a plain open Abaya, so it added the black color on to the pink

Steal her style: Jessica Stroup

I loved this look by Jessica Stroup - Silver from 90210-

and I thought of putting this look together!

So for the skirt, she is actually wearing a skirt that is asymmetrical, short from front, long from behind, but the closest thing I could find color wise was this skirt from Stradivarius, they have a new stock of it, I saw this weekend, so you will surly find your size, and its just 18.9 OMR

As for the top, I thought this top is a perfect match, from H&M 4.9 OMR

 And then the accessories which are the whole point of this look:

The Multi chain necklace by CC SKYE

The portico bracelet by CC SKYE

Both available at Talyan's : 110 OMR, 63 OMR

And this is how the whole look will be 

Now I strongly recommend that you wear a thin belt as shown with the Stradivarius skirt, because the skirt Jessica is wearing is a bit high waist, and the one I suggested is a lower waist, so to add shape wear a thin brownish or nude belt with it!

Hope you liked it

Beat The Heat: What Am Using Them For!

So here it goes, you walk into H&M and you see this short jersey loose-fitted dress

and you think: hmmm a perfect beach dress or a bikini cover up, and you grab it for the next time you hit the beach or go swimming.

But NO, I saw those dresses and went like this is heaven, this is the only thing I will be wearing under my closed abaya this whole summer, am never ever wearing pants,jeans,leggings,maxi dresses or any of that shit under the abaya again!

And so I went crazy and bought them in all colors and all patterns, they are about 5 OMR each, so it was a steal really!

And yeah before you judge me, let me tell you I reached a point of not tolerating the heat while wearing abaya that I was willing to start wearing nothing underneath! So this is a good alternative, am actually covered but they are so light and short you feel naked! Its the best discovery I love it, I am ready to wear abayas now!

And well they are useful as beach wear aswell, so 3a9foorin bi 7ajar :P

So if you hate the heat like me, RUSH now to H&M and get them, 

P.S: Please don't wear them with open abayas!!

TaLyan loves HbyF designs!

HbyF designs are everything I love: they are so fierce 

Kuwaiti accessories designer, Fahad Al Marzouq's designs remind me of Alexander Mcqueen's designs, in the sense that Fahad's designs are also so fierce.

One piece of his accessories can complete any plain looking outfit, it will add an edge in a way like no other pair of shoes or a small clutch can do.

Am especially in love with his latest collection, but even the past two collections are just as hot, I couldn't find a lot of photos that I can post here, because the images are protected in his website, but you can check them out at: http://hbyf-designs.com

Here are some of my fave

Beat The Heat 2: tried and tested

So anyone who dared to step out of their house this past Wed was horrified by how humid the weather was!

I was at LeftBank and the whole glass windows were covered with humid

All the ladies in the ladies' room were powdering their face as the makeup was melting off because of this humid weather even if you have ultra dry skin!

So even though your makeup will most probably melt off, using an anti shine gel that matifies the face before putting your makeup on helps in avoiding the excess melting!

 anyhow in a post earlier I talked about a matifying gel that truly matifies, I tried it and tested it and its amazing, the only down side it isn't available in Oman

http://www.talyans.blogspot.com/2012/04/tried-tested-and-loved-beat-heat.html



So here is another very good matifying gel that is just as good as the Urban decay one, the good news its available in Oman, you will find it in the pharmacies, it is REALLY good, but the only down side that unlike the urbay decay gel, this one you can't apply it on top of the makeup, it should be used as a primer only

After applying it, within one minute you will feel that your skin is matt and tight, so try to apply the foundation within this minute to avoid it flaking off because your skin will be a bit dry after applying this primer.


I still rate the Urban decay one as number 1, but this is just as good.

For the love of leggings!

So leggings are still in,

But now its good bye to the plain black ones, and HELLO to patterned leggings

You can team them up with a plain top or a boyfriend blazer and you are ready to go!

They are infact substituting trousers, which is good in a way, they feel light on the skin, and in this heat as I mentioned in earlier posts, ANY THING LIGHTER, is way better. Honestly I don't remember the last time I wore a pair of jeans in this heat, it was months and months ago. Just the idea of denim touching my skin and trapping the heat within gives me nightmares!

So anyhow here are some of my fave picks of leggings

And if you want to go for something more budget friendly and easy to shop for from the mall, then head to Mango as they have those leggings available, those are my fave ones
