BA: Well it all started back when I was so obese, people used to laugh at me and called me “fat-ass”, girls refused to date me because I had asthma and I wasn’t living a healthy lifestyle this made things even worse for me, that was when I said enough! I need to get myself in shape.

BA: My biggest motivation actually came from people who kept telling me you will never ever become a fitness model. I still remember that moment when my girlfriend broke up with me and got engaged to a friend of mine telling me” you will never become a famous successful fitness model”, all that made me much stronger, more determined to go beyond becoming a very successful fitness model.

BA: Well I guess it’s so easy for me to pick the bench press, lat pulldown and deadlifts, Because I feel those are the most challenging workouts for me where I put maximum weights and could feel my whole body is working at its best.

BA: Well I usually start my day with my Multivitamin pills, vitamin C, B12 AND I drink Green tea upon awake on an empty stomach and I drink coffee especially pre-workout, I also use whey protein with glutamine and creatine and post-workout with some BCAA.

BA: Never give up, nor lose faith in yourself, God, and your dream. the road is very long and hard, and along the way, people will doubt you, ignore you, laugh at you and fight you, but once you get there you will know that all the trouble was worth it, and always remember that every championship legend was once an amateur newbie at the gym, with big ambitions and strong willpower.

BA: To be honest with you, NO! Never, because all I was thinking of was to become a model, then it happened when I first competed in a bodybuilding contest and won that’s when I knew I wanted to be a fitness model. It is a more challenging career and I found myself in it, but still, I’ve never expected to be an international fitness model when all fitness pages kept requesting to put pictures for me on their pages, it then struck me, that this dream of mine has indeed come true.

BA: My short-term goal is to launch my website and try to promote myself on an international level. My long-term goal is to become one of the Top Fitness Models in the fitness industry.

BA: Well the first thing I do when I am free is to put on my headphones and go to nature for some jogging. And I love watching movies, especially horror and comedy, I love food shopping, I take lots of time reading labels and comparing stuff 🙂

Figuring out which fashion style suits you best isn’t an easy task. With so many options of colors and designs, it’s easy to get lost. Most people think that it’s enough to simply follow the latest trends, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Finding out which style is most appealing to you means discovering a little more about yourself, discovering who you are and who you want to become. Determining your personal style can also make you realize which decorating style suits you best and help you create a home that perfectly reflects your personality. But, first you need to do some soul searching.

The first thing you need to do is get to know yourself fairly well. Explore your interests and hobbies. Find out what makes you smile, what excites you, and what puts you off. Experiment until you find exactly what you’re looking for. Once you realize what keeps you going, it will be easy to build your personal style according to it.

It’s important to remember that you are the one that’s in charge of your style. Every one of us knows which aspects of our appearance they want to emphasize and which ones they want to mask. You have a vision of how you want to present yourself to the rest of the world in your mind – you just need to find the right means for achieving it. A good way to show your true colors to the world is to dress with care. This means that you need to find clothes that suits your figure, that highlights your best features and shows everyone (including you) how amazing you are. It can be a dress that emphasizes your curves, or a pair of boots that shows off your slim legs. Highlighting your natural attributes shows that you respect who you are and that you want to show everyone else the best aspects of your personality. You need clothes that make you feel comfortable and good about yourself. You’ll need to put in a lot of effort and try out tons of different outfits, but discovering your unique style is definitely worth your while.

Your personal style can be a tremendous source of help when trying to decide which interior design trends appeal most to you. Take a look at the color palette of your clothes. You probably spend less time thinking about the choice of color when buying a shirt than you do when you think about which color to use for your walls. The decision on the color of the shirt is brought subconsciously to a great extent. It signifies your personal interests and it can be the solution you’re looking for. Of course, you may have a lot of different-colored pieces in your wardrobe, but one color will be prevalent. Take a good look and decide what’s the best choice for you.

When it comes to home décor, nature always hides the best solutions. Bring the natural scenery inside your home to give it a fresh and vibrant look. Floral patterns, natural jute rugs, plants, and green details light up the atmosphere in every home, and if you don’t know what to go for, you can’t make a mistake with natural elements. Another potential source of inspiration is your past. Decorate your home with souvenirs and reminders of a certain period in your life. Try to notice a connection between them and display them in a way that shows this pattern. Each of these objects is in your home for a reason. Treasure their sentimental value and use them to create a unique home décor that reflects who you are.

Dogs.

To many, style is like music – it’s a whole language, a unique way to communicate your preferences, your beliefs and your attitudes to the whole world. And yes, some have a talent for it, while others have to work damn hard to catch with the times and craft their own look.

But just like every Mozart’s cadence has a clear structure, even when it has his famous trill ornaments, a unique style has its own set of guidelines that make it stand the test of time. Let’s see how you can achieve the same with your look!   

Different doesn’t mean better

And simple doesn’t have to be boring. And vice versa for both. It takes time to master this level of finesse, but it boils down to several key things. First of all, whatever you do, you don’t need to dress differently every day, and you should never dress for people, but for the occasion.

Don’t aim to dazzle or impress others, personally. If you’re leading an office life, simplicity can be your most practical, comfortable choice to keep your productivity high and your colleagues to respect you. Simultaneously, you can add a decent touch of flair with the right choice of nail polish, jewelry, or even a powerful Skagen timepiece on your wrist. Be playful, but keep it cool and graceful.

Wear your personality

Life is too short and too wonderful for all of us to wear black socks all the time, or so my significant other claims, and I cannot help but agree. While tighty whities will always be a reasonable garment to own, don’t limit your wardrobe (your undergarments included) to clothes that don’t resonate with your personality!

If you fell in love with that stunning Alice + Olivia mini dress with floral embroidery, then go for it! Or if you simply adore wearing all things plain and monochrome apart from your insanely colorful shoes, what’s stopping you? There’s a need for crisp white shirts and pure black pumps, but don’t be afraid to add some innovation to your style dictionary.

Comfort meets style

Sometimes, trends can be ruthless and dismantle all style choices you otherwise love, and yet there are still enduring items that remain timeless despite (or maybe because) of their simplicity. A great example is our undying love for the hoodie. It’s an icon of youth that we even transformed into an haute garment in the past year, an essential for anyone who loves street style.

Come to think of it, the timeless Birkenstock is practically a family member of every household by now, a must-have, a favorite pick for beach lounging, summer barbecues and casual walks to the store. It’s vacation for your feet, and consequently, a beloved holiday choice for many. And yes, comfort does matter as much as appearance, so don’t throw away your old college sweats or your old flannel shirt – style always makes room for comfort.

Know your size

Ah, the rule many keep forgetting or at least ignoring when it comes to buying your bra size, and picking your dress for the summer wedding (because by then you’ll surely shed those extra pounds off your waist). Always mind your body, not just type, as in choosing the right cut, but also your size, as too tight or too loose doesn’t fly with everything or everyone.

Yes, oversized is popular, and some of you can pull it off, but not all the time and for all occasions. On the other hand, too tight is simply too tight, so if your clothes leave deep indentations in your skin, it’s a clear sign it’s time for a shopping spree!

Posture means style

Supermodels, Instagram stars as well as famous designers all know one dominant truth of a true fashionista – what you wear can only be as good as the way you wear it. No matter your figure, your size, shape or preferences, your attitude is the determining factor of your style.

So even if you’re wearing that hoodie and a pair of torn old sneakers, keep your head held high, your back straight, and all those imperfections we all secretly try to hide will fall into oblivion compared to your resolute posture. Whatever you wear, wear it with pride, and enjoy every bit of that style of yours that adds to your authenticity!  

Designer: Mitsuru Okazaki 

Mitsuru Okazaki looked to circus clowns for inspiration for his latest offering. He incorporated bright colors, bold graphics, and exaggerated silhouettes in his amazing unisex collection.

Okazaki opened the show with a denim blazer accented by brightly colored, striped sleeves, which he paired with balloon pants in shocking pink. Other looks were more toned down, like a buttonless black jacket and matching trousers embroidered in rows of stars, and button-up shirts and polos with small clown faces embroidered on the chest or collar.

You would also see some - Bomber jackets, pants, and a short-sleeved top were constructed from a diamond-shaped harlequin patchwork of contrasting fabrics.
