Cairo Muse Meram

A Cairo Muse that can only be admired.  After having spotted this stylish beauty a couple of years ago, I became quickly obsessed with her every outfit, a style rarely found in the streets of Cairo.  Meram’s style can be defined as juxtaposition between high and low-end labels, shaggy and chic, cool yet simple.

I am in love with the contrast of her rugged look, the Horreya Scarf, layered off-the-shoulder cream and black tees, the perfectly ripped jeans and camel colored combat boots WITH the classic black Chanel bag.

Take a cue ladies, you don’t need to be dressed in only designer duds.  MIX IT UP!

CC Skye Black Horn and Gold Chain Bracelet

This beautiful black horn and gold chain bracelet is the epitome of CC Skye and is the perfect accessory.  I love the usage of two completely different materials to create a stylish item which supposedly brings you good luck.  Who doesn’t want good luck when it comes in a chic bracelet like the above.

Planet Awesome Kid Pic

While skimming through my emails today, I came across the cutest blog.  Imagine a kids sartorialist and if you don’t know the Sartorialist, it is a  must see!  Both blogs post pictures of fashion spotted around the streets of the world’s major cities, their only difference is AGE.  Back to Planet Awesome Kid, its truly an awesome idea.  Kids nowadays are  wearing vintage Michael Jackson Tees, Marc Jacobs and Chanel bags, to H&M and Zara Kids.  They mix and match high and low end just like adults, and keep becoming more stylish with time.  The pictures are adorable, and I want to submit Nejmah, my first Cairo Muse to their blog.  She would be a great addition.  I hope you enjoy it like I did.

CONGRATS FUSTANY & PASHION!

Malak El Ezzawy, one of our favorite local evening wear designers, tributes the “Little Black Dress” this fall with her limited edition collection.  What I love, is that it is a perfect addition to my LBD post (posted a couple of weeks ealier, click here).  As mentioned before, the LBD transcends time and trends and is the perfect “throw it on and still look chic” dress.  A staple in every woman’s wardrobe, just like a man’s white chemise.  Below is a sample preview of her limited edition collection, more on this Facebook link, and in store at the Melodies Atelier at 24 Tharwa St., Mohandeseen, ground floor.

Malak’s LBD collection is full of lace, as we call it in Egypt, dentelle.  The dress below worn by Menna Shalaby is a dentelle top with a chiffon and tulle skirt and a sexy low back.

Menna Shalaby wearing Malak's LBD

This LBD is the perfectly structured tube dress, which I believe, will be flattering to many.  The dress is very futuristic (which I don’t usually like, but this is cool).  I also love how the designer utilized both polka dot and stripped prints on one canvas.

Polka Dot & Stripped Structured LBD

This matte paillette, aka sequined, one shoulder LBD is IT! The fall season is all about embellishment & sequins, in addition to asymmetric dresses.  I guess this LBD is an ALL-IN-ONE must have!

Matte Paillette One Shoulder LBD

I decided to end this post on the perfectly simple, yet sexy, LBD.  The uniqueness of this dress comes not only from its simplicity but its texture.  Velvet is a material that faded away for a while, but is back it style and feels very rich.

Perfect Velvet LBD

Every week, Saturday that is, I will post my favorite item spotted in stores around Cairo. It can be a shoe we all lust over, a bag we can snag, just a jacket, a stylish skirt, a do-it-all dress, jagged jewelry, or nifty nail polish.  Hope you enjoy!

Christian Louboutin Lace & Suede Booties

I have been lusting over these Louboutin booties since September; hence, being my 1st Item of the Week.  Need I say much about Louboutin other than he has, by far, kicked Manolo Blahnik out of the race more than 3 years ago.  His designs are feminine yet trendy, stylish and breathtaking.  These elegant lace and suede booties will be the statement of any outfit, but come with a hefty price tag.  I love how they are reminiscent of boots worn 1800’s and can still be worn in 2010!  Found at Beymen, Four Seasons Nile Plaza.

A girl’s shoe should always be a source of admiration for the other girl who isn’t wearing them!

The Pink Powder Room

The Pink Powder Room is displaying All by N scarves in its Shagaret el Dor boutique for 3 days ONLY.  All by N scarves come with a new concept, pockets!  The designs are always two tones using silk and/or cotton and sometimes even lace!  The scarves come in cool colors and prints adding a trendy look to a jeans and a white tee outfit!  I suggest you visit the Pink Powder Room from Dec. 2nd 7:00 pm to Dec 4th at 10:00pm and get your hands on one of the new concept scarves.  The Pink Powder Room is located at 26 Shagaret el Dor St. in Zamalek.

Cairo Muse: Noor

Noor, one of the first to hear about FashionThreads and spread the word amongst her friends, has always impressed me with her versatile style.  The editorial associate at Enigma is pursuing her career in the fashion industry attending the Dubai Fashion Week, store openings and more, she even got acclaimed by Grazia UAE as best dressed at the Dubai Fashion Week; but seriously, lets move on to her, yet again, amazing outfit.  The all black look Noor is sporting can be defined as elegant, timeless, stylish, and sexy; all without trying too hard!  Noor is sporting a LBD, every girl’s wardrobe staple; click here for my LBD article.  The fashionista topped it off with a perfect trench, which she kept looking young and modern when she pushed the sleeves up.  Then come the accessories, the suede boots are the perfect shape but the statement jewelry add a spark to  the all black outfit; the gold chain necklace and statement large ethnic rings worn on her hands painted with deep purple nail polish.  Take a cue from Noor, an outfit doesn’t need a lot of everything to look chic!
