  • I can't seem to escape this colour combo - lighter shades of orange and white. It's definitely one of my favourite choices this season for the ladies. And this is going to sound a little crazy, but I was also inspired by halwa (halva). Halwa is a sweet confectionery (there are many kinds) that is popular all over the Middle East, South Asia, North Africa, Balkans, Eastern Europe, you get the picture. The one I was inspired by was gajar ka halwa (gajar means carrot). Even though the colour of it is richer, shedding a few shades isn't doing anyone harm.
    Well, there you have it. I have been inspired by dessert. I wasn't kidding when I said I'm inspired by everything around me. This time it was a food program on Fox Traveller. Yes, I love food as much as I love fashion.

    Okay. I finally did it. For the longest time, I chose to avoid doing a look inspired by her. I, honestly, felt that I would do her no justice. To me, she was simply off-limits. But it finally came to me. I didn't want it to go over the top, but I wanted to keep it sophisticated. She is, as I have mentioned so many times before, the crutch in my life. A very important woman who I always aim to make proud. I would be lost without her, no exaggeration. It really is nice to see her almost everyday at work; I take pride in knowing I work with her, even though we're in different departments.
    No charming speech this time around, there are no words I have that would truly express how much she means to me and how big of an influence she is in my life. She is my Athena, my Lady of Light, my Galadriel. I know it's geek status but that's the only comparison I can make in this world.

    I know it's been a while, gentlemen. But I'm still here and so is GS. Today's edition is something I did for the magazine I work for, Avenue T (at Dhaka Tribune). There were three different looks that you could wear throughout the day. It was more for the office - suit & tie - gentleman so I chose a solid navy suit jacket in three different ways. One look was for the office, completely suited up. Second, a slightly more relaxed look, after losing the tie and adding a pocket square for a sophisticated dinner/meeting after work. Finally, there was a much more casual look. The navy suit jacket or blazer can be used with a solid polo shirt and some jeans for those hang out sessions with your close friends after work. Now, I can't share the exact look but here is something similar.
    Keep in mind the items you see here aren't meant to scare you by their price tags. These, I can't stress enough, are meant for you to try out new looks. Update your style game.

    Seems like I have been posting every other full moon. Apologies, ladies. My attention has been diverted to many other things in life, unfortunately. It's not that I haven't been inspired, I just haven't had time for my beloved blog. Just like I stated on Twitter last night, I promised a new post so here it is.
    This look was inspired by the school colors of the University of Tennessee Volunteers and a certain someone. I always admired the color combo (and her curves); it's pleasing to the eyes. I've taken a favorite color of hers and added shades that compliment the rest of the outfit.

    She's captivating and charming. Yes, I've been charmed. It's something that rarely happens has never happened. The way she talks, the way she shies away, and laughs is incredibly sexy! Her natural beauty is enhanced by the sweetest smile, which leaves a hint of mischievousness. Her eyes are engaging and her intense gaze is hypnotizing. She makes a grown man's heart flutter - a natural shot of adrenaline pumping through the veins. She has become the biggest distraction and the only desire. Consider me...stolen.
