June 8th 2016, 8 years back, my very first post was during Ramadan, and since then, this blog has evolved with me, covering more categories and to my great pleasure, it is reaching people all around the world. I love to stay consistent here and it is rewarding on national level too!
That being said, we can easily fall behind, so for example, while the tradition was to share a yearly post to celebrate the previous year, and another one to celebrate my birthday (March 13th for those who don’t know!) I kept postponing them till I decided to make it a 3 in one celebration post!
2023 was a year of learning, evolving and decluttering.
I was blessed that it was the start of a new career path, besides the Fashion styling and Content creation, I started with the organization of Photography exhibitions. Courtney was the first one to trust my work and I am very grateful for her support. Later this evolved to starting with Sarah, The Shift Consultancy (make sure to follow us there), and we are so happy to see the feedback of all of our clients and the ones who are showing interest after seeing our work, that is not restricted to event management; our bespoke services are catered to your needs, don’t hesitate to contact us to help you define what you need while shifting the narratives and telling your story, together.
Fashion styling, from the editorial to the personal styling, trends and the daily outfits inspiration, and many other services that I enjoyed offering, makes me the happiest. I love to see how I am changing your lives one look at a time! Check my services below and contact me to book your 15 minutes free discovery call!
My content creator side is the happiest with meaningful collaborations such as being an ambassador for Revolve and Fwrd; please reach out if you find anything that you like in my list of favorites or on their websites.
2023 was hard on all of us, with the devastating escalation on the war on Palestine, that also taught me more and more how to face this world with big faith; where humanity fails, Allah SWT is the light to the darkness, and by grasping to the teaching of Quran and the Prophet PBUH, we can survive this cruelty.
On personal level too, the year 2023 pushed me to prioritize my wellbeing, and to break the pattern of allowing some to take me for granted, to use my kindness and to toxify my life with their negative energy; the best thing was to close the door and move on and forward. I have many blessings in form of friends in my life, you know who you are, I LOVE YOU ALL.
The year’s positive highlight was definitely my trip to Spain (Madrid, Granada, Cordoba and Seville) and Lisbon-Portugal, a reminder to take some time to disconnect and recharge.
I always pray to stay real to myself, and to others, to keep using my voice in defending and sharing the causes that matter, and to still leave room to some fun!
As 2024 started, and as I was saying good bye to the last few months of my 38th year, I welcomed my last year in the 30s club, with a new perspective, not totally new but let me say with some re-enforcement of my values and of what I have learned, intensively, in the previous year. Low tolerance to bullshit and high importance to my intuition (a pisces girl here!), keeping closer those who matter only. What was the highlight so far is definitely my visit to Medina and performing Umrah in Mecca (blogpost soon I promise). In between cherished moments with the best circle that I am blessed with.
Thank you for being part of my online family, here and on my social media platforms, where I try to serve you quality content with versatility on each platform to keep you informed and entertained.
