The 23-year-old twins started up their blog almost three years ago and it’s already one of Team Ahlan!’s go-to sites for fashion inspiration. Be it casual chic in Gap denim or evening dressing in Michael Kors, the pair sure know how to style up a storm!  

“You can wear anything with denim: casual tees, sparkly tops, heels or even denim on denim. It doesn’t really matter as anything goes!” Kate
