Prints are a huge trend this season and gold is a recurring theme for Ramadan fashion, so what is not to love?
The right accessories can make or break your look. So, it is important to chose not only a trendy bag, but also one that adds to your outfit rather than take from it. This Ramadan, look no further than Dubai-based designer Nathalie Trad’s handbags. With their geometrical shapes and its exquisite textures and colours, it will surely take your look to another level.
These shoes from Malone Souliers are on trend and a big addition to your day-to-day wardrobe.
