Fashpiration: Friends Edition

Sometimes you get a fashion freeze, your need for inspiration is clogged up (maybe too much inspiration or too little or maybe your clothes just aren't speaking to you lately) which is why many of us turn to blogs, stars, & in my case friends to help jolt my brain fashion muscle back into over drive!  One of my besties, Tania Nawbar (one half of the L'atelier Nawbar team) has been (& always will be) a fashpiration (have to admit I stole this fake word from my cousins).  She stays true to herself through her clothes combination, accessories & most importantly jewelry choices.  I love how it always looks effortless & most importantly honest.  A lot of people in our part of the world just don't get the opportunity to be free & Tania is one of those people who will always break the boundaries to protect her freedom & that particular ability to express herself through fashion.  I took these pictures on my last visit to Beirut whilst strolling in Beirut Souks!  If you're ever in Beirut, don't forget to go down to Hamra & meet this lovely lady (bias? not really!) & get your own dose of fashpiration at her l'atelier!

What Tania's Wearing:
Hat: Panama Hat
Top: Shredded from Liberty's of London
Underneath: Vintage Story Boutique from Beirut
Bag by the ever so stylish brand Marni (I've been in lourve with that bag since the very first moment I saw her carrying it)
Gladiators: River Island (Tania's best buy EVER-her words & I agree with her)
Accessories, of course, are all L'atelier Nawbar



xoxo for now ma PFFers,

P.S. I hope you all have a great weekend! & that your Eid shopping isn't too super busy & rushed!

P.P.S. Website of the Day: www.faikaalhassan.com (Yes, being super supportive/bias by giving props to my lovely mom! She's been painting for over a decade & has finally compiled all her great work here on her site!  I hope you enjoy it & the music featured was hand picked by her as well! Fairouz is one of her favorite musicians of all time-& mine of course thanks to her. So proud of you mama!)

P.P.P.S. Song of the Day: Islands by The XX (because this song was Tania's favorite! She had it on repeat in my car-literally! & since this post is all about her & her loveliness! I thought it befitting to pick a SOTD in honor of my dear friend!)
