Hey everyone!!
I know, it seems like ages since I have been away!! I just wanted to live my life, shop and fall in love with little things without having to blog about it. Sometimes, its so much more fun to just enjoy whatever comes my way without letting anyone know about it. So I ate so much chocolate, dint workout, bought so many shoes and scarves and home furnishings. So.. yeah! i did a ton of shopping in December and Jan and I am so glad to have been around the best shopping places in Calgary and got myself some awesome bargains. I always thought shopping from Walmart for regular lounge wear was the cheapest option, but I was amazed to find designer wear at awesome prices (and its not Old Navy that i am talking abt :P).
So here's my life in pictures, hope u enjoy!
Staring from my favorite shoes these days! My Coach wedges!!! I bought these from The Bay on there holiday clearance sale! And I love how comfy and super stylish they are! Although, I always considered wedges to be bulky and great for skinny jeans only but I am surprised how well they go on traditional Pakistani wear and skirts!
My Birthday present from Mont Bleu that i got a week back! I love glass nail files especially if they are studded with Swarovskis and have my zodiac sign on it! Many of my friends don't like the sound of glass nail files but I love it! The also sent me crystal earrings and a Swarovski studded pen. Did u notice the new spelling of Scorpion?
I love chocolates and I still love Cadbury's Dairy Milk. This is a kg of Dairy Milk!! yummy!
And everyone knows my all time favorite chocolate!!
Muslim fantasy! Sparkling water!
Oh btw, I instagrammed it and someone asked if this was alcoholic! I mean, people in some parts of the world are so unaware of what is permissible for Muslims to drink and alcohol is definitely not an option for us!
Someone got us a delicious Turtle cake from Marble Slab Creamery!! Absolutely divine and fattening!
I baked and baked and baked during the holidays and in to the new year!! So I guess, I am gonna be baking this whole year!!
Mable cake, chicken bread and cookies..and thats the garnish for haleem on extreme left!
And finally me and my toddler son in the snow posing in front of my to-be-constructed half a million dollar house in Calgary!!
Yay InshaAllah will be a house owner soon!
So I guess this was enough to keep you all updated with what I am doing these days! Oh did I share my Franco Sarto tall leather boots? Maybe next time :D
Hope u guys are rocking and living every moment of your life with joy! Celebrate the people Allah has sent in your life and thank Him for the countless blessing we enjoy everyday!
I will be blogging about some of my purchases and some PR stuff soon, maybe tomorrow so dont forget to check back soon.
Love,

An inspirational blog that features versus from the Quran with beautiful backgrounds. This one is my cover photo on Facebook and the verse is from Surah Baqarah, Verse 216. It really keeps me going no matter how things turn out to be!
