Nabila Junaid, better known as Nina, was spotted recently wearing something that could be called a casual-brunch ensemble.
The other half of the famous Pakistani fashion label Nickie Nina, looked stunning, as she posed in these breezy cool shades. Here’s how you can mimic her look:
HAIR
Those long, brown locks with a wave and big curled ends stole our hearts! If you don’t already have a wide curling iron, it’s time to invest in one. Once you air dry and curl the ends, just make sure to part, with very little teasing required. Make sure to use hairspray before stepping out.
MAKEUP
Nina has definitely not over done her make-up. To get a similar natural glow, use Cover Girl Trublend minerals loose powder (Rs1,200), then apply the rest of our recommendations. The Mac luster Jubilee lipstick (Rs1,000) is the perfect shade for the summer. For eye make-up like Nina’s, use Mac Humid shade (Rs800), Luscious black eye-pencil (Rs400) to outline the whole eye and Revlon’s Grow Luscious mascara (Rs1,000).
ACCESSORIES
We love Nina’s bold turquoise beaded pendant. Try searching through the local bazaars like Gulf, Tariq Road or Hyderi for a cheaper yet similar necklace (Rs600). For a better quality product, go to Accessorize and Outfitters (between Rs1,500 to Rs2,000). For a real leather boxed purse with a long gold chain, go to Debenhams, Jafferjee’s, or SilkSkin (between Rs5,000 to Rs8,000).
OUTFIT
The gorgeous Nina wore an elegant beige, baggy shirt with an aqua blue border printed palazzos. You can try shops like Mango or Outfitters for a similar shirt ranging between Rs2,000 to Rs 3,000. We recommend that you get palazzos stitched in cool prints, if that’s not your thing, try out Ego, Fnkasia or Khaadi (Rs2,000 to Rs3,500).
SHOES
With an outfit that’s casual and drapy, a nice option for shoes can be flat pumps. If you don’t already own a nice pair of black baby-doll flats, try Nine West, Charles and Keith or Debenhams (Rs3,000 to Rs4,000). Keep a look-out at local shoe stores for a cheaper deal. Good luck!
