Stylista

credits here

One of few unpretentious blogger fashionista and stylista that's worth mentioning is this pretty little lady here. She carries the whole look and other looks effortlessly. Loving the whole ensemble!

I also adore the styles of Aishah Amin. It is awesome to see that a person can still observe her aurah and at the same time appear stylish. Example below.

aishah amin's looks can be found here

Now, can someone tell me where I can get 'em harem pants and pretend to be stylish like them both. Like pronto!!

I love how her veil falls perfectly nice on her head creating that wavy effect. I've bought lace material (which my designer swore that it can be turned later into a top. dual purpose. why waste? ;p) that I super hope that will give similar effect. I super LOVE her dress too. Both veil and dress is by Jovian Mandagie. If you have that much to splurge, I'm sure its a piece worth investing. Simple with a touch of elegance.

It's down to the final two and a half months. The cousin said, "And the roller coaster begins! :) You'll find that some things don't go your way - don't worry! Cause in the end you'll find out that that's not what matters at the end of day."

Yes. That's what I'm hoping for. The W preps are the least of my worries. As evidently can be seen, I don't speak much in detail of the physical/material preparation. But more of spiritual and mental preparation. The material preparation is nothing but satisfaction to ones pride. But material would not determine the outcome of a marriage. A happily ever after. Or a bitter divorce. I prefer the former.

Hence, here's to the state of zenn-ness and redha as how the roller coaster begins. I am adamant that I want a happily ever after blessed and blisfull marriage.

Venting it Out

I didn't realize I was keeping so many things inside until i blabbed out almost all of it to my soul sister, ein (aka mak kepada emyr cheeky.) She said be patient. I didn't precisely told her what was worrying me. But her answers was so precise. She made me cry. Yes, ein. I cried. And from that day I cried, I've never felt better. Everything seems to fall back into place. *hugs soul sister bongok*. Yes, we're rough like that. That's why I love all of 'em. Ein. Miera. Muna. Melati.

Everything fell back into place. Things are up and running again. Yesterday was a huge accomplishment for us, who only sees each other never more than once a week. We managed to buy some of the gifts to exchange during akad nikah which is set in about 3 months from now. 3 MONTHS?! *inhale* *exhale*. I am inhaling and exhaling not because of the W prep. I am inhaling and exhaling because Insya Allah I'll be a wife. A WIFE?! *inhale* *exhale*

Oh! So cute. While we were scouting around for the gifts (read: patah kaki penat), he came up with a theme for our wedding, "simplicity at its best". Nothing exclusive. Far from lavish. What's important is the blessings from Almighty and parents. The gifts are not intended to be "oohh..aaahhhed" by anyone. The gifts are intended to be used in our daily married life. For him to smell nice for me. For me to look all dolled up for him. We like that. =)

Here's a post soul sister ein wrote 2 months before her wedding;

"Honestly, I don't see the fun in preparing for a wedding.

No offence, who cares about your wedding invites. Who would care to remember what flowers you picked for your pelamin. Who would even bother to scrutinize your wedding veils or dresses.

It can be a simple affair if you want them to be. That's Our plan.

For the unconditional Love Feisal showers me with, for the perpetual support and strength throughout, for the faith He has in me, and most importantly, in Us, I honestly couldn't ask for more. Thankful.

Indeed, all I want is a blessed and blissful Marriage with my Feisal, not a perfect Wedding. Amin."

How can we not be soul sisters when we share the same sentiment except I need to be kept grounded most of the time. She's a wise woman. Blur at times. ;p But I love her to death non the less.

I found this quote from taintedphase.tumblr, "He's not perfect, you aren't either. But if he can make you laugh at least once, cause you to think twice. Hold on to him and give the best you can".
