Sophomore Year!

   

HELLO EVERYONE! How are y'all doing? Probably back in school eh? Falling into depression :P I'm only joking. But as September arrives... so the does the cold. Hmm, September... cold.. that reminds me of something. SCHOOL! For many people going back to school is exciting and nerve-wreaking. I've been in school for two weeks now.. and trust me its not fun! Not when you're in grade 10! Yes, I'm a sophomore in high school. So, I just wanted to share my experience with you all. Freshman year was fun at the start and scary too. That was the year I had to move schools. I definitely miss my old school.. but lets face it.. I'm stuck at my new school :/ So instead of being sad, I decided to make the best of it.. and hope this year to be the best academically and socially! So, here in Canada we have semesters. For the first semester (which is going on now) I have Introduction to Anthropology, Psychology and Sociology which is a grade 11 course and the only grade 11 course I have  this semester (and that's my homeroom), then I have Food and Nutrition, Lunch which is probably my favourite part :P LOL! My entire school has lunch at the same time which is weird cause we are a huge school with a HUGE population! But I like it that way because you don't have to worry not having lunch with your friends :) then I have History (EWW!) I'm not a big fan of this course but its compulsory in order to graduate soo whateves! and the last period is Science. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE .. did I mention love? science! It's my faaaav course so yeahh.. I'm kinda a science geek :P LOL. Second semester I have French, Math, English and Living and working with children (which is a grade 11 course and I have it with my sister.. so I'm looking forward to that but sssh don't tell her that) My first day was good, I got around to all my classes and my teachers are really nice. These first two weeks have been great.. I've made new friends in my class and yes we have started getting homework.. in fact we have had test and quizzes done. But that's highschool. I am gonna work super hard this year academically.. I'm pretty much really big on my grades and am always competing against myself to do better each semester and year. My goal would be to get a 92% average for semester 2 and a 90% average in semester 1 and to do more extra curricular activities. I have high standards for myself this year but hey that's how I roll.. setting the bars high :) This is also the year I wanna have fun and make lots of friends since next year is gonna be hardcore. I'm going to do a lot of volunteering and working hard and making good impressions on my teacher oh and join lots of extra curricular activities at school and out. I'm probably going to join swimming again soo yaay! So overall, I'm super pumped for the school year and ready to hit the books. What about you? What are your goals for the year? Leave it in the comment section below and be sure to keep an eye out for my next blog post. Y'all wanna guess what its gonna be about? Well, I'm gonna spoil it for you.. its a what's in my backpack tag. I know a lot of people like to see these tags (so do I) I'm soo sorry its taking so long but school has been keeping me busy. So I'll talk to you all soon. Take care and have a wonderful day lovelies <3

Fall Fashion Trends for 2012

MY FAVORITE FALL FASHION TRENDS FOR 2012

   Hey everyone, How's it going. So I'm back with another post, and this post it going to be super fab! I'm soo excited so I'm going to keep this intro short. These are all the trends that I'm super excited to wear and try out this fall. If you want to know what the trends are.. then keep on reading :)

Ok so starting off.. every winter/fall my favourite way to style is by layering. Layering is a trend that never dies down and is a must for fall/winter. I'm soo excited to start layering all my clothes to stay warm and cozy this fall/winter. I love wearing skirts, dresses, pants and sweats.

For fall, I love wearing dresses as you all must. Dresses are soo feminine and girly! This fall I'm soo excited for printed dresses, especially bohemian print dresses (LOVE LOVE LOVE). I love belted dresses, they just bring structure to the body :) Since it starts to get cold in fall where I live, I'm totally going to rock the sweater dresses/knit dresses. I love love love to stay warm during winter/fall but I love staying stylish so sweater dresses are the way to go. I love detail (especially on my sweater dresses)! So anything with ruffles and bows will definitively bring out the fashionista inside you! ;)

Ok so like I said I love print and detail. I love how we can rock our animal and floral prints this fall and still be in style. I love anything from animal, floral and tribal to ruffles and bows. Little things like print and detail can bring a huge change in the way you style.

Ok now some colours I'm loving this fall is definitively the new trend of bold colours! I'm soo excited to wear purples, teals and burgundy etc. I am also excited for pairing colours. Like black and white or blue and black. Colour can change the way you look at things. Oh, also.. remember burgundy is the new black :P

Fall can get a little chilly (especially where I live) so I love wearing warm and cozy sweater. Sweater may sound eww but trust me they are super cozy and comfortable.. not to forget stylish! Speaking of warm and cozy.. I am SOOOO excited to start wearing caplets. They are soo cute and comfortable. They are warm and cozy. I'm soo happy its a trend this year. The best thing with caplets it it can be very casual (a shirt and jeans) or dressy (wear it on top of a dress).

So collars have been a big thing this year. I love cute and contrasting collars and BELIEVE they will be big this fall.

As fall comes around everyone is pulling out there scarfs (from cute and girly to big and cozy). Scarfs are a must have this fall (basically every fall). But what I can't wait to wear are the INFINITY LOOP SCARFS. Yes they are back! and I'm super thrilled to start wearing them. 

Ok the best part is hear ACCESSORIES! You want a whole new and updated wardrobe? Accessorizing is the way to go :) Ok soo gloves. Gloves can keep you warm for a chilly fall day. But again gloves with detail will not only keep you warm but keep you in style. This fall the trend is more of the clean and sleek look. So girls pull all your bracelets, necklaces, rings, bangles, arm candies, head bands etc for a whole new look! 

Thankyou guys soo much for reading. Feel free to follow and comment. These are some of the trends I am eager to try out and wear this fall. Stay tune for the next post. I'll talk to y'all soon. Bye guys. xoxo

Eid Mubarak!

Salaam (greetings) everyone! How are y'all doing. Soo I just wanted to wish all my Muslim readers a happy eid. Ramadan 2012 was awesome and I loved it! I am very sad that Ramadan is gone but you gotta love eid. If you guys don't know what eid ul fitr (also know as eid) is, it is a three day Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan (the Islamic holy month of fasting). May Allah (god) continue to bless us all and inshallah ( if god is willing) we will all have a wonderful and joyous eid. Hope you all have a great day and a happy life. See you all in my next blog which is about my favourite fall fashion for 2012. Allahhafiz (bye)!

Where have I been?

Heey lovelies, I want to start of by say sorry for being MIA for soo long. Now some of you guys might be wondering where I have been. As most of you know I have been on summer vacation.. Wait hold up! shouldn't that mean I should be posting more often? Well I have a good EXCUSE (meaning its just an excuse and not really a reason :p but forgive me please) it RAMADAN. And I'm really really really lazy these days. I just don't feel like doing anything. It's very bad I know I know. And even though I failed at my plan to post 2 times a week i am not gonna give up. I am seriously going to try harder this time. Promise? I was actually was running out of ideas and I wanna do something different than a tag. But I have some ideas in mind so stay tune for that. Also feel free to comment any ideas and if u want a follow y'all know what y'all got to do. Follow me and comment. So for now I wanna say goodbye. But not for too long. I'll post again today.

Would you rather-Tag!

Hey everyone! So, I wanted to do another blog since I'm not the best at keeping my words :P LOL, no its that I could end up getting busy..or lazy so lets just get on with another tag! This is the would you rather tag.. (this is going to be a challenge). Enjoy! :)


#1. Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up, or nice hair and no make-up?
I would go out with nice hair and no make-up because I am comfortable in my own skin and even if your face looks pretty.. your hair is going to be a distraction and not make you look nice.
#2. Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?
Well, if I shave my eyebrows, I could draw them in, but that just looks bad. So, I would rather have my eyelashes fall out and wear false eyelashes.
#3. Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?
Well.. being forced to shop for the rest of your life isnt a bad thing is it? LOL, im kidding but I rather be forced to shop only at Sephora because they have a large variety and different brands.
#4. Would you rather wear the lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?
Well... i dont like perms at all. So i guess i would go for the lipliner and lipgloss look but i wouldnt keep my lipliner to dark and i would blend it.
#5. Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
With an obvious foundation line.. you can blend it in or wear a scarf but with overdone blush you can't blend it to make it go away so I guess obvious foundation line.
#6. Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?
I guess biker shorts because MC hammer pants are just weird and ugly.
#7. Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?
A really weird tan line that can't be covered but is natural..
#8. Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair colour?
I've had bad haircuts before and let me tell.. they are not fun! I guess if I had a bad hair colour, I could always change the colour and dye it again but with a bad haircut you have to wait for it to grow out (or wear extensions). Either way i think i would just start wearing a hijab :P
#9. Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?
Well, i dont make videos on youtube so i guess youtube.. but only the account right? cause if its the entire website i would go with twitter.
#10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?
Thats a tough one.. i dont know. There are tricks for both but i guess i would give up using mascara cause i could find other ways of wearing mascara using eyeliner or just wear false eyelashes.

So, that is the end of my tag and blog :P I'll talk to y'all soon. Have a good day and stay beautiful :)
