SAYING GOODBYE TO 2K15

We haven't spoken much lately but I hope that you guys did enjoy your holidays and especially the christmas season. I couldn't make it to update my x-mas story on the blog but I did post a few sneak peeks on my social media esp. on Snapchat.. Snapchat has become my thing lately. Finding myself guilty of consuming daily ..haha!

However,  2015 .. where do I even start?!

So much has happened in the last 365 days! 

First things first, did I enjoy a wonderful birthday trip with the bestie in Budapest where we got to see many sights of Budapest and explore another kind of dish. To me, food is always a big & important part while travelling. It's no secret that I love to eat and when I get the chance to try out some new cultures, you clearly don't have to ask me twice. 

Well .. but that's not all for 2015! As you guys know did I sorta built up my own company which is called "Blogger Apartment" .. something that I'm very proud of since I've never imagined how positive it'll all turn at the end of the day. Therefore, I want to thank my lovely partner in crime Samah for sticking around for quite some time and creating our baby together. Without you, this wouldn't have happen! Looking forward to our next steps ..

Well, well, well ...no new news are, that I started with uni which by the way was the reason why I've been away so long .. However, with me getting back to school - in that short period of time did I already met such amazing people that I'm happy to call my friends. Me moving to Frankfurt was also a big step for me since I've never really lived on my own (me coming from a big household). I'm still learning but as far as my fortune cookie told me, I'm on the right track haha.

So many things happend and so many things to look back to. Sad & happy moments which all in all made my 2015 unique. As long as I keep on having faith and my family and friends close, I have nothing to worry about ..

But one thing though .. I'm usually not that kind of person that makes up resolutions but I have to admit that I kind of set up some goals .. fully getting back to blogging and in other news, starting a healthier and fitter life, starting with regular gym visits. Oh and .. spending less money which is on top of my imaginary list! I'll let you know how it goes.

Last but not least, do I want to thank you for sticking around one more year and supporting me day in and out. You guys are the best. Hope to write and see you all in 2k16 which is only tomorrow. Crazy!!

Happy New Year ! xx

OUTFIT: WINTER COAT

// Coat: Monki // Shirt: Esprit Men // Jeans: Cheap Monday // Hat: New Yorker // Boots: H&M //

Happy Mid-Week everyone!

How have you all been? .. if you ask me I've been busy ever since with studies, work and other things.  No new news! Tried not to disappear for too long but apparently it's tough getting all things in order. 

However, I did try my best and at least kept you updated on my Snapchat (fabeautrends) where I most of the time snapped about the random things in my life recently. Hoped you enjoyed those. 

I also did post on my Snapchat that I was literally hunting for the perfect winter coat since it's obviously getting  'hella cold .. and guess what? I found the perfect one! 

When it comes to choosing winter stuff I don't like going for jackets, I prefer the warm and cozy, oversized coats. The bigger, the best! (and of course black).

Friends from uni calling me crazy for not wanting a jacket and following fashion but hello .. I found both. A fashionable, effortless coat that can keep me warm. I also recently got hooked up by Esprit with this very nice shirt that I found at the men's section. Fell in love the moment I saw it.

In other news, I managed to get most of the x-mas shopping done which I'm very happy about. I come from a big family so it's always giving me a tough time getting the perfect gifts. But yes, made it! 

Are you excited for x-mas such as I am? Bet you are ..

Speak soon ..

Much Love xx

THE LUST LIST #6: COLLEGE EDITION

[Tip: Hover over the picture for info, click it to take you to item on store’s website.] 

Another week has gone by and we're almost in December .. sheesh! Time's flying so quick guys. I feel like 2015 has just started but apparently we're almost facing the end. What have I been up to the last months? Neither do I know ..

However, since I've started college I decided to do a college related Lust List. 

As a matter of fact, the way I dress on the blog is basically how I also dress in college (probably more basic though) ..

What I really like wearing to college is of course something comfy such as a oversized coat, sweatpants and even more, bomberjackets which I think can not be worn as often ..now that it's already snowing. Yeah .. you heard me right! We're already were "lucky" enough to "enjoy" bits of snow. You guys know, that I'm not that much of a winter person. I prefer the warmer season but in terms of coldness, autumn is just right to me. Not too cold and not too hot .. what am I even talking? We're basically in autumn and it's already snowing. Something's going way wrong! But in my mind, I'm still holding on to at least some bright, snowless days. Any anti-winter person around here except me? haha

Have a lovely Sunday guys!

Much Love xx

OUTFIT: ALL THINGS MINIMAL

// Coat, Off Shoulder Crop Top, Jeans: Missguided // Adidas Zx Flux Smooth: Foot Locker (click here) // Citizen Watch: Valmano //

Happy weekend guys!

I honestly don't even know how to start .. It's been a very long while (almost two months to be exact) since I've disappeared from the blogging and social media life. Not the best start since my blog just turned two in September.

Seriously, I'm feeling like a total stranger at the moment. Can't even get my feelings together and find the right words.

Let me start here .. as you all know, I've recently started studying in Frankfurt and earlier I was dealing with the thought whether I should stay in Berlin or just start "a new life" and chapter by moving to Frankfurt once and for all. 

First, I basically shuttled back and forth from Berlin to Frankfurt but then it felt so hard for me to wake up every single morning, get dressed to drive more than an hour for just some classes. I thought it would get easier from time to time but honestly that wasn't even the case. 

So, at the end of the day, I choosed to move to Frankfurt at least for the time that I'm in college.  And meanwhile I really need to figure out how to balance college and blogging. But as for now, you can call me a "Frankfurt-er", I guess haha. But still gonna be in Berlin at weekends though ..

Currently, I'm in the library all day because I'm soon going to be writing my first exams and I'm so anxious. Wish me luck guys!

However, let's get back to business. I recently got hooked up by Foot Locker again with these really awesome sneakers by Adidas that are so comfortable to wear. I've been so into sneakers lately. My everyday shoes for college. 

In other news, besides wearing black I've also extended my color palette to more white and grey-ish tones haha. Still quite monochrome but in the making.

How have you guys been? 

Much Love xx

THE LUST LIST #5: COZY UP - IT'S AUTUMN (FINALLY!)

[Tip: Hover over the picture for info, click it to take you to item on store’s website.]

Hey y'all .. happy Sunday!

I'm back with a new Lust List series and this time I got you covered with all things autumn ..

As a matter of fact, autumn officially has made it's way towards us. I know I'm a lil late on that (four days to be exact) but would you imagine that I even haven't realized until now that my favourite season of all times officially celebrated it's come-back. Guess, I've been busy with other things lately, that's literally the only way I can explain ..

However, to be honest guys, I'm still on the look out for the perfect coat this season. When it comes to choosing the perfect coat I tend to be a lil too picky. I mean, it's my favourite season and I want to do everything right to show that as well. Of course, I'm going to stay loyal to the monochrome vibe so you can expect shades like black, white, grey & even camel. Camel is just a timeless shade and ain't nothing wrong about the good 'ol camel coat right?! I already own a camel coat but I been kinda getting bored of the same look. Time for a hook-up!
I've already been browsing through tons of websites to find that one (or more) coat and so far I can tell, that there are loads of amazing ones out there but in my mind, something tells me if I purchase those things now they're going to end up in sales anyway or there will be a big discount or whatever coming up. Clearly, I don't want to miss on that. I hope that makes sense to you .. This fear of missing on a great opportunity when it comes to buying new expensive stuff from the past literally is following me until now.

With that being said, I'm ready to face all the hopefully soon coming up sales .. lol

Have a lovely rest weekend guys!

Much Love xx

Hey guys!

Isn't today just a good day? I guess it is! From the headline you already noticed that today is the second anniversary of FABEAU TRENDS ... time's flying like so quick and I can't believe that I made the second scale. I almost even forget that the second anniversary was around the corner. Let's just say that I luckily remembered perfect in time that there was something big coming up.

Keep on reading to see what I got special for you guys ..

Let me shortly just skip to the outfit I'm wearing in this post. I was hooked up again by Reno who surprised me with this stunner boots that literally are to die for in my opinion. I mean, the bottom of the heels are just killing me. Never saw a shoe as similar as this before and I'm just so in love with it. Apparently, autumn is just around the corner and guess what .. yea I'm excited! That's the only way for me to show off this boots more often.

Nevertheless, my surprise which is a sign of appreciation from me to you guys for all the support and love I got to experience in just 2 years .. crazy!! Never could even imagine to make it this far and to even bulding my own company Blogger Apartment. I also have to give a big thanks to God who always been on my side and literally gave me the approval on blogging.

THE LUST LIST #4

[Tip: Hover over the picture for info, click it to take you to item on store’s website.]

Happy Thursday everyone ..

Some of you might already know that I've been sick recently from my social media. The ridicoulous weather change from like 40 degrees to literally less than the half got me and now I'm finding myself in bed with a cold. But I'm getting a lot better since I pumped myself with so many meds to get well asap since I'm having a cool event on the weekend which am going to hopefully attend with the bestie. Fingers crossed guys that I can make it! If I do so you might see posts on my social media.

However, lets get back to business. As me recently getting in college (yayy!) so many new decission are coming up that literally need to be made. Whether I move to Frankfurt for studies or I stay, job situations, family and more. For instance, I've been going back and forth if I should finally get my own apartment ..and you know what guys I think I'm ready to face it! I've literally been trained and ready my whole life for this.. 

I remember though when I was a kid back then, I had so many ideas of how my dream home should look like and it incluced all the fancy stuff and colors like pink, red and what not. But as me growing up my expectations and ideas of course have changed and as you know me guys I've turned into a simple person who loves all minimalism. So, you probably can bet that my home is just going to look as that. I like it all clean, black, white & cozy .. like most "fashion people" right? Haha I really became one of those! Back in the day I never really understood why people would decorate their homes just like an emergency room or hospital. Was never my thing but apparently things have change and changes are good ..I guess.
Well with this inspo of some interior pieces I put together I just wanted to give you a peek on how my hopefully soon to be home will look like.

Since I've told you how my dream home shall look like, let me know yours.

Speak soon ..

Much Love xx

OUTFIT: TRANSITIONING INTO AUTUMN W/ STYLELOUNGE.DE

 // Bomber jacket, Crop Top & Mom Jeans: asos // Sneakers: Nike iD (all provided by Stylelounge) //

Happy Friday guys!

How have you all been doin? I'm feeling great so far; things are turning out the positive way for me! Such as me recently getting in college which I've been longing now for a year or so. I'm just so happy and fortunate to finally have been giving the opportunity to attend and I can't wait for all the new people I'll get to know & meet and of course the studying! Cause it's not supposed to be all funny..

Nevertheless, I'm also excited to show you guys an all new look. And to me personally it's one of my fav so far. Of course, it's obviously all in black, you know me guys. 

Until now I had a few things from this outfit on my "Lust List" and feel so good to finally tick some stuff off the list. Thanks to Stylelounge who generously hooked me up with the whole look.

For some of you who haven't heard of Stylelounge before, allow me to introduce them .. 

Stylelounge is a merely new fashion platform where you not only get to buy amazing clothes, accessories and what not from amazing brands, they also provide you comparison of prices. Under each item they have the prices from different shops listed from low to high prices which makes it super easy for you to grab a bargain. A easy and direct price comparison from over 100 online shops. Quite impressive! 

I love the idea behind and will defo continue to shop on their website. You'll find brands from asos to Nike, Adidas, Michael Kors, Jeffrey Campbell, Mango and the list literally goes on! 

A plus to me was that they even have Nike iD integrated on their site. I designed those stunner Nike Huarache Air Run myself and kept it simple & monochrome as usual. Since it's getting colder outside I went for a cool & oversized bomber jacket I've been wanting in forever! Gave some edginess on top of it with a ripped mom jeans and crop top. But for real though, I completely fall for the sneakers so be aware because you'll probably see them more often on the blog and of course my social media. Thanks to Jacky from Mikuta again for the amazing pics! You sure are so talented!

So guys, what are you waiting for? Go check out Stylelounge (here) and make sure to grab your personal bargains!

Talk soon ..

Much Love xx

HAIR TALK: IRRESISTIBLE ME CLIP INS

Hey y'all!

 A couple weeks ago I received a lovely package from Irresistible Me the hair extension brand and since I still had my braided hair at that moment of arrival I couldn't try the product earlier. Which was why I was even more excited to try! The package was literally dying in it's corner for like ages. However, one thing that explained my excitement was the fact that I've never tried clip-ins before just the typical sew-in weaves, braids, ponytails and so on. You know the deal my african sisters. 

So it was pretty much something new to me and just for instance, I always thought (and don't take it offensive or personal ladies) that it was a "white girls thing" but I was totally proven wrong. Those clip-ins are so easy to handle and install to the hair. I even did it myself! 

It's so much more healthier for your own hair than the sew-ins. They were the once that literally ruined my hair totally to this short mess! Never gonna let nobody to my hair with a needle again!

Ohh .. and before I forget - from their very amazing and variable collection I choosed a bundle that came in 200g & 20 inches of the Royal Remy clip-ins in Natural Black which is #1B (click here).

And let me tell you something, the hair feels so soft and very natural and matched my own (short) hair perfectly.

See the transformation yourself:

I'm not a pro when it comes to installing hair but I think I pretty much did great consider it for the first time and deserve a pat on my shoulder! haha

What do you guys think? ..

Much Love xx
