one thousand and one nights





Well, isn't this fun, this is meant as a fashion pun, ok. So you can breathe a sigh of relief now.
Obviously we all know that the trend of the harem pant in every shape and form - from contemporary to the downright dramatic has been done this season, including joggers, which has also been 'harem-ed'.

Anyway, I purchased this pair some time ago when it first came out. It feels super comfortable. This idea is meant to be fun, again. The thought that came to mind when I saw these trousers were - 1001 nights a
collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian stories and folk tales compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age. I wanted to try the original idea of how they were worn and described in those tales, with my own interpretation to wear this look now. So, since everybody is down-sizing on their accessories and keeping the look really sporty and grown up, I have gone for the drama and bling-tastic accessories. A girl can never have too many bangles on her arm (disclaimer: they all have to be a fashion match obviously - otherwise don't bother) and, mahussive earrings and rings! Am in the earrings phase, they are my current 'thing' now. So you will see more, as fashion week prevails.
