Leather Weather...Soon?

Knit Sweater & Faux Leather Skirt: ASOS
Mesh Booties & Sunglasses: Zara
Clutch: Kate Spade 

I'm really hoping it'll be leather weather soon *crossing fingers* because I'm kind of obsessed with this sleek faux leather midi skirt from ASOS I bought not too long ago. The fit & length is great and it's so light! The quality is great because it's not the cheap kinda faux leather that you see everywhere. When it starts to get colder outside I'd love to pair it with a chunky knit turtleneck sweater and boots. 

Actually- I'm obsessed with this entire outfit. The green knit sweater is also from ASOS. I love it because I can layer it on top of a white button down and wear it with leather pants (can you tell I love leather?) or boyfriend jeans. 

Now it's time to talk about those SHOES! Let's just say I've found my new running shoes...kidding. I don't run. Although I probably could run in them from store to store while shopping. Anyway, I love the sporty feel of these booties. Zara's shoes have always been a favorite of mine because the quality and price point of their collection is always pretty reasonably priced and are always in style.  

That clutch though? It's sweeeeet. Anyone who knows me well enough knows about my obsession with New York City. It was like love at first sight when I saw this clutch at Kate Spade last year. It has a map of the city on the inside and yes- it's made out of paper. I'm so scared about taking it out because if it gets dirty, I'm screwed. It was part of their limited edition collections so I'm not sure when they'll bring a similar style back.

Pakistani Fashion: Asifa & Nabeel

Here's yet another Asifa & Nabeel outfit that I am obsessed with. I wore it to a friend's wedding last weekend and got so many compliments! I rarely ever wear any color other than beige (my friends can vouch for this)when it comes to Pakistani clothes, so it was def out of my comfort zone. I'm usually not a fan of heavy stone work because it can get tacky pretty quick, but not with this outfit. The detailed hand work is absolutely phenomenal! I hope you can see the detail through the pictures and admire it as much as I do. Pictures will never do justice to an Asifa & Nabeel outfit, but I just had to do a shoot anyway. Enjoy!

Thanks Ifrah Atiqi for the awesome photos!
