Want. Dress. Now

Happy Pi Day!

(3.14= 3/14... get it? Haha.. >.>)

Yeah.

Well anyway, see this dress on the right?

------>

It's beautiful! (Just add a straw hat)

It's from Anthropologie

So it's expensive T_T

I don't have $178 to just throw around D:

But it just reminds me of beaches and sunsets and long walks with the wind blowing in my ..hijab! :D

Maybe I should be on the lookout for a replica.

Or hope it goes on sale.

-sigh-

Beautiful dress, you shall be mine!

(In my dreams...)

LuShae Jewlery Competition!

'Aren't these earrings adorable?'

I think so :D (And just in time for Singles Awareness Day-points to hearts-)

I could totally wear them with hijab and still look schnazzy.

Well, that's why it's super cool that LuShae Jewlery is having a Competition ! <--

Awesome right? Well I'm doing it! ^_^

(And I ain't got the SADs m'kay.. that's just something in my eye...)

Am I the only one...

Who thinks that high heels look like walking death traps?

I mean seriously... I can't STAND heels

Even if I am 5"8 and have no use of them, I don't know why we subject ourselves to them.

And I'm not going to be using hadiths or even going at it through a religious angle (although some could)

HEELS ARE SCARY AND DAMAGING.

My honest opinion :P I mean, don't we know the damage it does to our legs?

But I'm not going to lie. I have a pair in my closet at the moment waiting to be worn for an event next week.

And I'm not anticipating it at all.

Speaking of death traps...

may I present,

the modern corset?

I really don't understand why we, as women, put ourselves through this. It doesn't matter if it's 'cute' or 'no pain no gain' wtf? I won't sacrifice my right to breath correctly and correct posture for the sake of fashion!

Although I think these are stupid, eh, to each her own.

Earrings with Hijab

The Closet: How to Wrap a Hjiab with Earrings from Sabrina Enayatulla on Vimeo.

Sabrina Enayatulla is AMAZING. If you haven't seen her website -->Slice of Lemon already

Then you are MISSING OUT.

I remember watching the first episode of 'The Closet' (not airing right now because of the move to L.A and whatnot...) and thinking "Wow, I love how she made hijab and earrings look so cool and modest!"

I had tried to do other types of hijab and earrings.. very unsuccessful.

But this was like a God-send!

So, malekat (you're the only one who asked but I wanted to do a post about it for a while)

THERE IS YOUR SOLUTION! No more awkward earrings pinned into the fabric and no more ears showing!

Woot teh Woot, enjoy Ladees! [I know I do ;D]

Fascinating Fascinators! [A Giveaway]

What if someone.... died in it?

Asalamu Alaikum!

So I've been meaning to go to this one shop across the mall but I'm afraid.

It's called Crossroads and it's a thrift shop.

Not that thrift shops are bad it's just, you know, I'm used to other stores -cough-forever21-cough-. But I heard they had some really nice dresses on the cheap side and wanted to investigate.

This apprehension for thrift shops stems from the fear of bad things happening in those clothes. I mean there's a likely hood that someone was murdered in those heels. And yes, those are the same rings Dolly Parton had on her fingers while sticking her fingers down her throat to purge. And while we're at it, those skirts you're trying on have been on the dead corpses of Titanic Survivors. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SOILEDDDDDDD!!!!

Yeah, I'm kind of paranoid.

I've succeeded in convincing myself not to go to the store tomorrow and will most likely go to Marshall's.

What can I say? I'm shopportunistic!
