A NOTE FROM ME

I don’t want many things — just the right ones. Unfortunately, those tend to be more on the expensive side. But slowly, I’m building a wardrobe and home filled with some special statement pieces, and I have a feeling today’s bag might become one of them.

Always, lovely to have you here

THE ONE TO WATCH

AMYSHEHAB

I feel like I’m a little bit over designer bags. The market feels oversaturated and besides the charm of vintage bags, nothing really catches my eye anymore — except when I see someone carrying an AMYSHEHAB bag.

AMYSHEHAB MAKES
THE STATEMENT BAG.

ABOUT

  • Founded by Amy Shehab as a jewelry label in 2016 — later expanding into fashion, statement accessories, and cult-status bags through the momentum of her personal brand and online audience.

  • Rooted in a bold, hyper-feminine aesthetic: drawing from Egyptian culture, early 2000s glamour, vintage references, sculptural silhouettes, and glossy statement bag designs with a modern edge.

  • Why their POV matters: The brand blends influencer-era visibility with a strong visual identity — creating collectible bags, clothing, and accessories designed to stand out rather than blend in, worn by names like Bella Hadid.

WHY THEY STAND OUT

  • The bags are the outfit
    The styling doesn’t revolve around basics — the bag becomes the focal point. Oversized shapes, high-shine finishes, and dramatic proportions make everything feel instantly styled.

  • Internet-driven desirability
    The brand grew through reposts, screenshots, celebrity wear, and “where is this bag from?” moments. It feels discovered online rather than traditionally marketed.

  • They sell a character, not just a product
    Everything feels tied to a specific girl and lifestyle — glamorous, confident, overdressed, slightly chaotic, very self-aware. The products work because the world around them feels so defined.

Why do people care when a new drop happens?

AMYSHEHAB bags feel less like permanent products and more like moments. Every release has its own energy — a specific shape, finish, color, or styling direction people immediately attach to. That constant evolution keeps the brand feeling exciting, collectible, and highly online.

  1. Limited drops create obsession
    The bags aren’t always available — and that’s part of the appeal. Certain colors, textures, and shapes disappear quickly, turning each release into something people wait for, screenshot, and search for after it sells out. It feels less like regular shopping and more like catching a drop before it’s gone.

  2. The bags feel instantly recognizable
    Most brands chase timelessness. Amy Shehab leans into identity. Oversized proportions, glossy finishes, exaggerated shapes — the bags are designed to stand out immediately in photos, outfits, and online. You know it’s theirs before seeing the logo.

  3. They make the product feel emotional
    The appeal isn’t just functionality — it’s the feeling around the bag. The styling, the internet hype, the “need this immediately” reaction. The brand understands that people don’t just buy accessories anymore — they buy into a character, a mood, a version of themselves.

Like I said in the beginning — I only want the right things, and this bag is one of them. We’ve been living in a more minimalist era for a while, which is exactly why I appreciate brands like Amy Shehab and Nou Shoes so much. They bring femininity, creativity, glamour, and personality back in a way that feels fun again.

SAVED

What’s been my inspiration on Pinterest this week.
(click to discover)

I can’t decide whether to go platinum blonde or lean more towards my natural, dirtier blonde (like everyone else..). Lately I’ve been saving hair that feels effortless — soft highlights, layers, slightly undone, like someone who just naturally has really good hair.

  • Hair → effortless blonde, soft layers, natural texture

  • Home gym → a girl can dream! Effortlessly close by and filled with natural light.

  • Headshots → less corporate LinkedIn energy, more simple, clean, and personal. Something that actually feels like me.

  • Motto → getting over fear, doing what makes me happy, and moving toward the things that make me shine. Trying to live a little more like no one is watching.
