Snow White at Dreamworks

Shah and I had the pleasure of visiting Motiongate Dubai theme park on our transit back from Milan, and on that note, why has nobody ever shared with me that there's a theme park worth visiting in Dubai?

Or, a better question: did YOU know there's a theme park in Dubai where The Hunger Gam…

Easy Eyeliner Trick: Outer Corner Flick

I'm a fan of the big thick liner flick just as much as the next person but drawing it on both eyes symmetrically is undeniably a tedious, time-consuming feat. When I need to dash out the door but still want a hint of eyeliner, I turn to this easy trick: concentrate on drawing the flick only at…

I Speak French Fries | Polka Dot Suit & Polka Dot Booties

Honestly, if there's one universal language, french fries would be it, wouldn't it?

Aside from matching sets, kimono-inspired tops are …

When Ruffles Take Over Your Sleeves

I've talked about how the placement of statement details on clothing is extra important to a hijabi, so when I saw this blazer with these crazy bloom of ruffles snaking down the sleeves (or more like up, U-turn and down if you look closely), it's basically three words: Meant. To. BE.

Burano: The One Place Where You Can't Help But Embrace Colours


Pairing White with White: Ring Double Strap Tank Top

I'm starting my Italy Outfit Journal with this white-on-white I wore on my first day in Venice.
Ah, Venice, one of my most favourite cities I ever set foot on; the moment I came out of the Venezia train station and rested my eyes on the impressive turquoise dome of San Simeone Piccolo, standin…
