Ladies that lunch







Mesh dress & nude bodysuit, American Apparel; trousers, McQ by  
Alexander Mcqueen; shoes, cottonpancakes; straw hat, vintage;


Clean & proper dressing has been the trend in my life lately. My  
sister Nour kept asking me as we shot these photos " Why have you  
been dressing like a golfer... geeez!" I've been searching for a  
nice good pair of high waisted pleated trousers, and this McQ pair  
that I got at Revolve are the absolute perfect fit. I love that they are a classic shape but still have a little sparkle when you go in the sun.

Although I'm pretty much sick of anything studded, I can't help but love this funny little pair of shoes that cotton pancakes sent me. At first they seemed too bulky and weird, but they're growing on me. Super comfortable too!

Considering cutting my hair short but I'm just hesitating. Seperation anxiety!

Don't cut your hair until you give yourself a few weeks to REALLY think about it. If you still want to cut it and don't feel unsure about it then go for it. Of course hair grows back, but it's sooo slow and frustrating that it's not worth it if you aren't totally sure that you want short hair.

LOVE that straw hat, Fabulous dear.
I kinda like the simplicity in your dressing lately. I'll Have to say I do love your hair BUT, I think hair is meant to be cut, it does grow back and youth is the BEST time to experiment: )

Great shoes! I know the problem of long hair, at some point they just seem to be too long and you want to get rid of it, but then you are scared, what if you don't like it, it would take so long to let them grow again... I always cut then 3-4 inch. A lot shorter, but still long. And you still have the option of going further. If you still want...

Shoes = FAB.

I think you should cut your hair. In my opinion waist-length hair is rather childish and people keep it as a comfort blanket, not because it looks good. I think you should still keep it long, but you could lose a few inches(at least 4??)

just my opinion though!!!

nice outfit btw!

I am sick of studded things, too, so your take on these shoes is so refreshing!
The high waist(ohmygoodnessthosepants) and hat look so nice with them. I love it!

Your hair is so beautiful. It gives you such a classic, feminine, yet natural look. It would be intersting to see how you do it short, though

Hi,

I was browsing the AA site, and a link to your blog post`(http://www.taghrid.cc/2009/10/my-shiny-shiny.html) was on the page of the mesh shirt (http://store.americanapparel.net/rsans311.html?cid=930) I was interested in getting. I look about the same size as you, so I'm wondering if you could please tell me what size you got for the shirt?

The details/reviewers were not at all helpful in helping me decide between a small and a medium.

Thanks in advance. Really hope this doesn't come across as creepy. I just don't have an AA near me and it'd be a hassle to exchange/return the wrong size online.

Have you seen the latest Anthropologie catalogue? I'm in love with the model's hair cut- kind of a page-boy bob, but with a lot of movement and layers. She looks like she has very similar color/texture to you and I think it would be an amaaaazing look on you!

FYI: this is what I'm talking about (kind of confusing to find it on their site) http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?popId=CLOTHES&navAction=jump&id=CLOTHES-CATALOG2
