Fashion Styles: Blouse

If you have been following me on this blog, you’d probably know that I’m such a girly girl. I just love being a girl. Seriously, what’s not to love? We have the best in fashion. Fashion is dedicated to us, women! From hair bands and clips to shoes and stockings, and everything in between. I had many fashion phases growing up. The “Clueless” inspired fashion; checkered pants, preppy blouses and small furry backpacks, short dresses with platforms ala Baby Spice and so much more. But, as I grow older, I stuck to a classic and simple style. My husband loves it when I’m dressed in a simple skinny jeans/pants and blouse . And that has been my staple since I got married. I admit – I would love to be more adventurous in my styles (like in my younger days) but I don’t think my husband can tolerate that. Lol. Over the years of experimenting, I have learned what’s good on me and what’s not, what I like and what I dislike. I prefer blouses; smart casual mostly to cotton tshirts. After tur...

Feed a Family this Ramadhan - Carefugees

Advertorial  I've been fasting on Mondays and Thursdays to replace the days that I missed during the last Ramadhan. The first day of my puasa ganti, a few weeks ago, was just bad okay. I woke up, contemplating whether or not to continue with my fast. Thought of all kinds of food that I could have, and the coffee I know is waiting for me at the office.

Like a 5 year old, I know. Suffice to say, I ate to my heart's content during buka. The meaning of fasting just lost on me. I'm sure we all have been through this. So very hungry that all you can think of is the glorious food that you're going to have for buka. But, have we paused and thought of those who don't have that luxury? Those who had to "fast" all day and all night because they s...

Simply Bridal

Advertorial  Thinking back to my own wedding, the one thing that I really wanted to be perfect was my dresses. I spent months researching on the styles, fabric and designers. And it's not easy. If only there is a one stop place or website that offers this. All you have to do is go to the website and browse thru the styles and fabrics. And that is why I got all excited (and jealous!) when I found out about SimplyBridal . The website offers a HUGE range of bridal dresses, all designed by its team of designers whose experiences combined are out of this world. They've even designed for BCBGMAXAZARIA, guys! So, you know that they put the highest benchmark for their designs and pays attention to the highest quality in their fabrics and embellishments. What I love most about their website is that they've arranged their dresses according to several criteria like fabric, sleeve length, train length and silhouette. For a girl who gets reallly excited seeing things or...
