Oh yes am back after a short hiatus here on the Blog, & no, I don't have any concrete excuse for my abscence. Life sometimes just happens & you get completely caught up in it. I felt like wearing a simple midi-skirt so I went ahead & made myself one with this fabric that has been lying around in my Fabric-stash for years. I also made a matching crop top but that will make its 'Blog-appearance' some other time. Hope that you are all well & am glad to be back.

A high waisted skirt teamed up with a form fitting top & some high heels to finish up the look is the outfit idea that I had in my head when I woke up. But later this is how I looked when I left the house...

There will be absolutely no twirling for me in this dress, well, not unless I have on some tights with it. I had some fabric left over from an order & decided to make my first wrap dress, which turned out a bit short but quite fun too.

Did you know that FGM (Female Genital Mutilation) is unfortunately still deeply rooted in some cultures & is being practised by communities not only in the developing countries but also in the developed world. Migration of people all around the globe means that most migrants even as they try to adapt to their new homes tend to hold on to some of their cultures & traditions. FGM is unfortunatley one of such traditions that is still being practised even by the younger generation. I was...

Who among us doesn't start a new week full of motivation, plans & goals that they have set to achieve. Just like at the beginning of a new year, we all make resolutions, whether it is to eat a bit healthier, drink more water, reply Emails on time, clear what's on your work plan for the week, exercise a little, go to bed a bit earlier, spend less time on social media, read the Bible a bit more or simply to set out your outfit the previous day instead of in the morning when you are already...

It has been raining quite a lot in the last few weeks so waterproof shoes have definately been a requirement. I've had these 'Timberland inspired' boots for over 4 years & they always come to my rescue when it's cold & rainy. When i bought them they were a light shade of brown in colour which was quite difficult to maintain seeing that they are worn when the ground isn't exactly dry. So, I dyed them to the darker shade that they are now & this has been quite practical. I like the...

Sometimes we read too much into words or statements made by people without giving them a chance to explain themselves. This might end up damaging relationships that have taken years to build & really hurt the people that we love. This cute sweater is the perfect reminder that things aren't always what they look like (just imagine me as a Gangster Rapper)!

Cooler temperatures don't mean that we should do away with our flare jeans forever. Combine them with tall boots to give your feet some needed warmth & height too.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, you will notice a lot of 'Red' popping up everywhere (outfits, decorations, recipes, gift ideas, flowers), so I thought to myself, why not do a 'Valentine's Day' inspired outfit. I brought out my minimal red heels & one of my favourite Ankara Print dresses which has some red prints on it. But because the 'Red phase' is not yet officially here yet, I decided to tone things down a little by adding a grey chunky knit cardigan & grey socks (...
