بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم السلام عليكم Hello everyone, this is a look that was taken on holiday. Besides my beach series I do not normally look really busy on holiday. I usually look really simple and a little tired, due to the fact that I am too lazy to put make up on and my family is all for adventure and seizing the day, which starts with not sleeping thru morning breakfast. The reason for my 'simple' style choices is because, when I was younger I had the terrible case of over packing, I would drive my dad completely insane with my big bag of clothes. So overtime I just kind of started to wear plain and simple clothes on holiday.

How to rock those Jordans

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم السلام عليكم Hello everyone, as the title states above I'm going to show you how I rock my Jordans. I am not going to lie, I know a lot of girls think that you can not make this shoe some what "pretty". To a certain extent I have to agree with that however, this is why I tried to make this two outfits tomboy meets girly.  I wanted to keep the two outfits very similar in look and even the same garments, just to prove that you don't need a bunch of different clothes to make up a cool outfit.  So if you find yourself running out of clothes to wear, changing one thing can make a huge difference. To give you a little run down, between the two looks my pants, shirt, scarf and shoes are the same. The only thing I changed was my dress underneath and the colour of my bandana.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم السلام عليكم Happy Wednesday everyone. Let me just start by reminding you all about the fundraiser being held by sisters in support. On Saturday Little Big Events Planners, Tasneem Hassan and Mujeebah Sauls Salaam welcomed us all with a little brunch to launch the event, it was so refreshing to meet new bloggers and I am so grateful they included me in this fantastic gathering. For those of you who do not know, they are having a open air cinema on the 13 February 2016, all the funds go to the Little Angels home, in aid of children with disabilities. I can honestly say I am super excited to spend the night with all of my friends jamming out to Grease, knowing my money is going to a good course.  With that being said, I will leave all the information down below for you all to find. Now for the fashion side of this post, you would of probably seen this outfit on my instagram already, so I thought I would put it here on my blog too so you can see all t
