One of the perfect time of the year is the period of the Mawazine Festival I can't tell you how fun was it.The OLM scene did welcome many famous artists like Jennifer Lopez in the first night and Sean Paul, Pharrell Williams, Avicii, Maroon 5 and several ones...I had the opportunity to be present with beloved friends in all the concerts during the festival.Today I present you one of my friends that I did collaborate with before and it's of course Fatine Zaimi, I just love this blogger for her ability to surprise me with her outfit each time we go out, in Sean Paul's concert she rocked her look with this amazing black boots and a crazy black and white pants and a leather jacket plus a cool shirt.I approved the outfit because it was so convenient for the show, and again I say that Fatine nailed the costume! thumbs up !

Here's another post about chasing faces and looks in Paris but this time it’s only
next to the Louvre museum, this place is so amazing and if you want to know
more about it you can check out my post in the «Travel » category. It’s so
great to see a lot of people from different ages and countries with interesting
outfits in one place, even though the weather was kind of shitty (windy and
poorly rainy) I spent three hours there and these are some shots that I took.
Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and I finished my visit by feeding
hungry pigeons, it was so fun.
My travels were never about taking pictures of myself or partying everyday, personally the main goal is to meet new people, discover their way of thinking and also sharing ideas.While I was in Paris I had the opportunity to meet a lot of people and we exchanged many opinions, Sarra Rahmani born and raised in France but originally from Tunisia was one of my interesting meetings.We shared so many subjects and Ideas that we couldn't get enough of each other, I really admire Sarra's style I think she's really unique and daring, If you can see her look in the images above you'll notice her socks, I admired them and It's a beautiful personal stylish touch that most people won't dare to do it.I've always believed that different doesn't mean wrong but you can be way cooler if you trust in yourself and not ask for attention because nothing beautiful asks for attention.
Paris! The city of lights, the city of street stlye, the city of beautiful allies and avenues.I'm so happy that my journey in the capital of France was so interesting and full of adventures,laughter and new experiences.Today on my blog you'll be exploring the looks and many faces of people living in this beautiful city,there are so many fashionable and charming people, I can't describe how happy I am to feel and enjoy the true heartbeat of Paris.What so good about the folks there is that everyone I've met has a story and is so full of ideas, I also had no problem taking photos of them, in Morocco I had this little issue because people are not used to be asked for a picture in the middle of street, they usually ask why you want to take a picture and what for or they just say NO ! Btw this is my first time abroad, and it's just the beginning because the best is yet to come. Stay tuned ;)
Today’s
collaboration is with the talented Moroccan blogger Asmaa Stiouat from
Casablanca originally from the “Rif”. We decided to do a
Denim photoshoot in the amazing old Medina this place is known by the old
French architecture, and the calm empty allies. This is my first shoot with a
blogger from Casablanca, and I’ll be having more in the near future. As you can
see in the pictures Asmaa is wearing that blue denim jean and shirt, plus a
beige jacket and let’s not forget the blue manicure that goes so well with the
purse. Personally I love this look it shows how confident & classy you can
be wearing denim (Asmaa just nailed it!).

TBT to last Ramadan & my first shoot with Hoda Katebi AKA the blogger behind JooJoo Azad. I chose this magnificent place for our collaboration. Hassan Tower is the minaret of an unfinished mosque in the twelfthcentury and is afamous towerin Rabat, Morocco's capital.It is themost famous landmarkin the cityand one of themost famousof all of Morocco.Thissitewas chosen as the mosuleum of KingMohammed V(died1961), hisson PrinceMoulay Abdellah(died 1983),and KingHassan II(died1999). I'd say it's the perfect location with Hoda's outfit. Even though I had to teach her a lot of Arabic words (even though she is basically fluent and she actually taught me Arabic!!!!!) for her Arabic program in Rabat, the day was still very special. The funny thing is Hoda told me in the beginning of our shoot that she's is very camera shy, but just a few minutes later she was running and jumping with happiness like a kid with a lollipop in her hand. I'm glad that we're still spending a lot of time together like traveling and mocking each other--she's a great person and I can't believe that I met someone as cool as her in Facebook & Lookbook and then months later we became good friends and we're cooperating together for great posts and fun adventures.You can always check out her at @hodakatebi or mine @youssefharzy to see photos from our shoots and travels!
In November 2012 I moved to Casablanca after spending 16 years in Laâyoune (South of Morocco), and in that year I had the opportunity to attend Casablanca's fashion week (which was the first fashion event I went to). It was a great three days full of energy, I've met a lot of new artists (photographers, stylists, and models). This event did know a lot of great Moroccan & foreign stylists like Said MAHROUF, Fadila El GADI, Mehdi KHESSOUANE, Ghita LASKROUIF andHatice Gökçe etc... This event aimed to focus on the quality of fashion design and integrate it into the industry in order to support economic growth in the sector, help designers and brands present their latest collections to the public, and form a bridge between the Moroccan talents and surrounding countries which may extend worldwide in the future.
