My first umrah trip was about 5 years ago, during Ramadhan and I remember making lots of doas that I will get married soon. My prayer wasn't answered immediately, Allah knows best but I'm so blessed that after 5 years, I got married to a special person and we made a promise to do umrah together that same year. Alhamdulillah, we were invited to the House of God, Makkah Al Mukarramah and spent the last days of 2016 in the blessed place. Because we entered Makkah straight, we had to put on the ihram right from our home in Singapore. Putting on the ihram means there are things that you have to avoid, for ladies, keeping your aurat in...
Last weekend, my girlfriends of fifteen years and I went for our first trip out of Singapore. Being such adreanline junkie, we went to Sunway Lagoon for a short escapade. Once we checked in at Sunway Resort Suites, we changed into our wet activity gear. I wore my sister's Burqini with an additional onesie tudung. We went for dry and wet rides one after another.

My husband and I started the journey on Thursday night, 8pm flight from SG to Jakarta, Jakarta to Ambon. Due to the time difference ( and Ambon is really far ), we arrived 6am Friday. And we thought we're gonna get the to waters right after, well.. the adventure just begun. As soon as all the other 9 guests and our guide arrived...
If you've been following us closely, you know whats our next inspiration for our upcoming prints! Yes, we're going underwater! You must be wondering why underwater? Well, Lully and I were just looking at random #ootd and street fashion styles and we saw an interesting colour combination of blue tones and neutrals. And then we got this idea to go into the theme of "Blues and Nudes". We brainstormed and decided to break it up into further themes for each month, just so we can keep you on the toes and always have something new! Since I'm so dying for a beach holiday and when I think of blues, I see the beautiful sea, we decided to dig out my...
