Salam and hello peeps . Alhamdulillah we're still alive !
So,lately I am so into Islamic lectures videos , that I dig on youtube . Alhamdulillah I found a lot of helpful and inspiring videos that taught me how to be a good muslim . So rather than watching KPOP hours long , now I'm changing into something that good for my sight and hearing . And I benefited a lot from it .
So now I have my favorite Sheikh's and Imaam's . Not to brag or anything but , I am proud of myself that I now know a lot of things compared to my old self . Alhamdulillah . :P
Thanks to the internet, like seriously , how can I not use the internet wisely before ? There's a lot of things you can find here ! But you have to be very careful when you check on islamic blogs because sometimes , it does not really accurate . You might bumped to the Wahabis . And it's really dangerous . But , InsyaAllah may Allah guide us always .
So, lemme name a few sheikhs that I find very good in giving lectures about Islam .
- Sheikh Imran Hossein
- Sheikh Yasir Qadhi ( some says he's a Wahabi , but I found his lectures is good , and logically makes sense . Just take the good thing and leave the bad one okay . )
- Sheikh Hamza
Just go and check them out on YouTube .
What a blessing year .
Salam and hello peeps . Alhamdulillah we already in 2012 . Though for Muslim , new year is over almost 2 months ago * new year for muslim is Awal Muharram * .
Alhamdulillah, there was lots of ups and downs in my life that I've been thru last year , and it's not over here . But that was past . I wanna talk about now and present .
Last year was the year where I finally realized why I live in this world . I am a Muslim . I am a believer . But sometimes I don't execute . I know that Allah is exist . I know all the laws in Islam but I am not executing it . Everyday in my life , I lived like a disbeliever . I didn't do solah , I rarely read the Quran . I start my day waking up late , eating , online then watching tv and then again I would go to sleep . That was my routine . I didn't spare my time to perform my solah . I've wasted so many times in my life !
Last year,me and my cousin Elly became close , and I finally spent more time with her after almost 8 years . She was studying and lived in New Zealand , so it was really hard to see and meet her . I prayed to Allah long time ago that I will meet her and be close to her , and Alhamdulillah, Allah granted my wish , although I have to wait this long .
Again , Alhamdulillah for me to have a cousin like Elly . She somehow taught me a lot of things about Islam . She was born as a Muslim , but didn't know about Islam , and Alhamdulillah last year , Allah gave her a Nur , and now she's learning , and sharing thoughts and knowledge about Islam . I feel a lil bit shame that she knows a lot better than me . She with no islamic foundation compared to me who has been taught well about Islam since I was 9 . MasyaAllah . It reminds me of Prophet Musa a.s and Prophet Khidr a.s . May Allah guide us always and be with us , InsyaAllah .
So, with been hanging out since she came back to Malaysia and Alhamdulillah , we had a good conversation . We didn't gossip , but we tell stories about the prophets , about the world , about the hereafter . And we both aim for Jannah .
Listening to Elly's story made me realized that one's life is not as easy as thought they would be . Like Elly's case , I always see her as lucky person . She is pretty , and she used to wear all this fancy outfits and have a lots of lovely friends around her . I was jealous of her . But then after we became close , one night , she called . Crying and telling me everything that she went through back in New Zealand . I was literally shocked listening to her story cuz I never thought that she went through a lot of pain , masyaAllah .
She lost her mom when she was 11/12 . Moved to New Zealand at age 13 . Living like an adult at at the age of 16 . Having a breakdown and great depression alone , with no one around her . She was lost , and living in the dark . Now I know that she is suffering . Listen to her crying made me thinks a lot . But she's okay now . She found the light . And now , Alhamdulillah she found a man that InsyaAllah will guide her along the way . I am happy for her .
But the only problem she's facing now , is her concern to her family . Her dad , my uncle is not that religious . He didn't even care what his kids wanna do , and this makes Elly sad .
I understand . She's trying to pull everyone in her family to bow down to the only God . I will always pray for her and her family .
So last night , she called and again she was crying ! I was in panicked , but then she said she was crying because she was happy that Allah has given her a good life , and Hidayah and how good Allah is , subhanallah . I cried too . And she shared a story about an islamic course she went to earlier . I love every single conversation we had . Alhamdulillah it was fulfilling .
Right before she called , I was watching the arabs guys reciting the Quran , soothing my heart , subhanallah , their voices was awesomely good . And I was chatting with my good friend Nadia . I think Allah is watching me , always , but why didn't I obeyed Him ?
I'm hoping this year will be a better year , cuz we never know when will we die . My good deed is not that much so I'm desperately pray to you O Allah , please forgive all my sins, and put me in Your jannatul Firdaus ,insyaAllah , Amin .
Allah , He tested me with a great test that I could never resisted .I was soo into music that much that it seemed to make me forget about things , music is so good but it set you apart for Allah . True though . I was away from Him because of musics, and the only way to fix my relationship with Him is to stop and start listening to something that will remind me more of Him . I am not talking about nasyeed . We as a Muslim, have to be careful listening to music. Its not that we can't listen to music , but there is a music that is permissible is Islam . I'm talking about dhikir and surahs .
And recently , I'm into KPOP music . And it makes me go far away from Him . I started to dreaming to be like one of my girl group . I wanna be on stage, singing, dancing . Started to dreaming about boys , you know , you reach until one point when you are so obsessed with someone . Astaghfirulah.. why didn't I obsessed with my creator ? The one who created me , created this world , created the earth and the sky , and everything in between ? Why did I obsessed with His creation more than the creator ?
That is how music tramples me .
I forgot that in Jannah , I can ask for all that I want . In Jannah , whenever my heart wants something , in the blink of an eye , Allah will give you the thing you want .
I forgot in Jannah , I can achieve anything .
Subhanallah , now I'm starting the process . And it's not easy . You may fall back to your old habit back if you don't commit . But InsyaAllah , I will always pray , so that I will be stronger in facing this phase . I feel good . Alhamdulillah . Whenever I go online , I would listening to people reciting the Quran , and dhikir . And am making the Quran as my favorite book instead of novels . May Allah be with us always , Amiin .

Comeback Post.
I'm in my first semester in college now . This is the first time in my life feeling the student life/college environment after wasting my 2 years in my previous college which was so bad and it wasn't even a college ! Though I'm forced to study business, but that's not a big problem , I will try to adapt and absorb as many knowledge as possible . But I know its not going to be easy as I'm not a fast learner,especially in subject that requires me to work with numbers or calculation . I am that weak okay ! I'm not a fan of numbers . What is worse, I have to study account as well . But, I am so thankful because people around me ; my friends and my family especially my Dad is giving me the spirit to keep learning and never say no . They are actually right, I am the one who makes things harder , things are supposed to be easy, I'm making it even much harder . Mindset . I will try my hardest to change all that negative attitude to survive and compete to get a high marks in every subject .

UpdatesUpdates !
Okay , last Saturday I went to HELP College and University for briefing session about the fashion competition I join and it went well . I made new friends , met new interesting models , photographers and fashion designers . Looking forward for our photo shoot session on 31st of July . On that day also , I need to submit my portfolio . The theme that has been given to us was Moroccan , Las Vegas , Rock and Natural . I am so idealess , been thinking for days upon days now , still have no idea what to do . LOL . Will start sketching soon .
So , the competition is quite unique where the concept of it is a fashion concert .It's combining models and photographers and as well as the fashion designers in one team , we have to create a look together . Interesting isn't ? I am so looking forward for the Las Vegas theme .
To know more about the competition , check out the website - http://tfgnight.com/
Couple weeks ago was the best moment because I met my friend after for almost a year we didn't see each other . And then Zaini's birthday celebration . Ahh .. God knows how exciting it was ! I was lonely added up with hectic schedule , then meeting my old friends is kinda like lighten up my life back ! LOL .
Good Month .
I love JUNE ! Whoa so suddenly shouting I love June ! :D
So,the reason why I love June is because this month alone, I got so many invitations and opportunities . This month is a productive month to me and I think the busiest month ever in my life . But still, I will always find time for myself for TV , Internet and some hangouts or lazy time . No matter how busy I am , I will always have time being lazy . Isn't it great ?
So,today I need to attend a fashion show in the city ,I can't wait !
Then on 17th July, I will launch my own clothing line under Shakila Ashari's boutique . I feel so excited and overwhelming ! It's a small steps and a fresh start . Let's hope my line will grow bigger soon and have its own store !
So,because of that , I'm having a pretty hectic schedule . I need to get everything done before the launching . God knows how busy I was lately !
I need to do hundreds of different designs , I called around 7 people a day, driving to so many places , rushing to buy a fabrics and materials , finding a factory ! Phew ! It was hectic !
Then after the product is ready , I need to work on the details on the garments .
Then , I got a phone call asking me to be a guest for a tv show talking about fashion next month .
And, fashion show in November . And also a fashion competition that I think I might not joining it .
And , still remember my previous post about me applying to be a celebrity stylist ?
Well , the company called , and they said they want me to be their stylist ! I am so happy as this is my first time doing what I like . I always wanted to be a stylist , so being accepted working with them is something that I would never refused . I don't care with who I work with , as long as I can't show my creativity and widen my experience .
FYI,my future clients has this bad appearance , I can't stand seeing someone who wants to be in the music industry to wear something so lame and cliche' . My mission is to style them , and change people's perspective towards them . Appearance is everything , people judge you from your appearance,the way you dress and all . So,it's okay that they don't have this ultimate,golden voice,but style and personality is important !
I hope , that God will make things easier for me, and may everything goes perfectly well ! Amin .
Thanks for reading !

Fashion Catch Up - Khoon Hooi
Salaams and Hello !
It's been a few days since my last posts . I'm kinda busy planning and designing new kitchen at home . Need to do some cleaning and stuffs. It is so hard to find the best and beautiful design .
Okay , doesn't matter .
So today I decided to check out what's new in local fashion industry . I rarely watch Malaysian's latest fashion show , in fact I don't even care to watch their show . Wanna know why ? It is because , firstly, Malaysian rarely put a nice,clear and long video of local fashion show on Youtube . What you will see is short clips full of watermark * I don't know why Malaysian loves to put full and big credits and watermark in their pictures,and videos * . I tell you , it's so hard to find pictures that are clear and big . And sometimes , you will find nothing cuz no one cares to upload it up .
Secondly , Malaysian doesn't have personal fashion show that much . Usually they will join forces with other designers in one show .
Thirdly , all of their designs and clothes sometimes or some of them looks so cliche and lame and old . Some of the designers , I noticed that they don't really know how to pick the right fabric .They will use the same fabric everytime they do a fashion show . I believe that fabric selection is very important in determining the outcome later. It could make the clothes looks lavish or cheap .
I think we should do a fashion show like in other countries. One designer , one show . This is to let people know about the existence of a brand name and fashion designer itself. I know that some of them already having their own show , but what I meant is we need some special place to run the beautiful show . But what to do , I'm sure money is the stumbling block . I realized that we're not in Milan , New York or Paris , where they take fashion damn seriously , and will work hard to have the best fashion show in the world .
I hope we can be like them one day . But the great news is , our local fashion scene is keep growing and growing , there's a lot of fashion competition , fashion show , fashion exhibition , fashion fair , fashion festival and lots more , which is something good , and the organizer should add more fashion activities in town so that young designer can take part and participate .
Whew , that's a lot . I was expecting a short post , but it became long . :D
So back to my point , so I went to Khoon Hooi's website to see what's new . Cuz recently I heard about Khoon Hooi's latest design that becomes a hot topic in local fashion scene . So , I thought , maybe I need to see it too . So it is cool ! I'll put a pictures together with it's description about the collection .
For his Spring/Summer 2011 collection, Khoon Hooi reprises his aptitude for draping, fabric construction and colour blocking; qualities followers have come to expect of his work. This season he spices things up with an incantation of Ikat prints, embroidery, charms and rustic beadwork to set the tone for a tribal-infused collection.
Khoon Hooi displays an unassuming maturity in his refusal to over-conceptualise, using tribal elements and Ikat techniques as accents, and sparingly. No easy feat for someone so deeply creative, as Khoon Hooi admits it’s his most challenging work to date. “I wanted to make sure that it doesn’t look too busy and most importantly transforming the traditional Ikat fabric to timeless and elegant modern designs for today’s women,” he explains.
Simply, he intends for the collection to be a modern tribute to his homeland and heritage, without being overbearing.

Subtle as a SPELL (the inspiration behind the work), the collection is an artful execution of ornamental minimalism so integral to Khoon Hooi’s work. His uncanny ability to balance brand integrity with youthful expression of ideas prove why Khoon Hooi continues to set the standard for his contemporaries.

Love the prints that is so Malaysian ! So fresh and different than any other local designer . So I hope local designers out there * including myself * can be more precise , wise , and creative in order to make a beautiful unique design in the future . And I hope to see more variety and colors in our fashion industry especially on the red carpet ! What I see now in red carpet everytime the award season comes , is boring me .
So that's all ! Thanks for reading !

Fashion Catch Up - Balmain S/S 2011
Hello again !
Last post , I was writing about Burberry and how cool the studded biker jacket was . So I was thinking , why not this time doing a post about Balmain , since they also has an amazing + killer + awesome studded leather biker jackets ! :D
I don't know why I suddenly fell in love for anything with metals * pins,studs,chains.. etc. *
Maybe because my favorite Korean group wore most of Balmain and Burberry for their new MV "Lonely " ? I don't know . Haha . Maybe because of the creativity that both Christopher Bailey (Creative Director of Burberry ) and Christopher Decarnain ( Head Designer of Balmain * he used to be , but now he left the fashion house*) put in their designs and collections that makes it look adorably amazing .
So for the Spring/Summer collection , Decarnin revive the punk , rock'n'roll look in to it . We can see the outfit is destroyed ,ripped ,torn out ,bleached ,shredded ,and studded with lots of safety pins , and some of it looked like it just came out from the garbage .
I think this collection , although it's heavy on the theme , but for me it's light . I had so much fun watching the show . There's nothing to hate . Pair it with Burberry's patent leather with one of Balmain's shirt , totally amazing . Like what 2NE1 members had on in their latest music video called "Lonely " .
On Dara : Burberry's black patent jacket + Christopher Kane neon green shirt + Balmain's black and grey stained cropped skinny jeans .
On Minzy : Burberry's silver leather biker jacket + Christopher Kane's bird printed cotton tank top + Balmain's pantalon skinny jeans .
I always mistaken Burberry is Balmain and vice versa for S/S .
But lots of people is arguing about the expensive Balmain's collection because of the look that people could do on their own . Even I can make my own shredded t-shirt with safety pins on it . But people still buy and buy the awesome piece from Balmain . It's because it will be much more fun if it came from a touch of the designer himself.

Fashion Catch Up - Burberry Prorsum S/S 2011
Holla ! Been missing in action for two weeks now * or more? * as I'm busy doing my portfolios since I'm gonna apply for a job as a fashion stylist . I'm making more portfolios,one for fashion design and another one for stylist . In case if I'm applying for either one of them .
So , I applied to be a celebrity stylist , they already replied my email and will give me a call in two weeks time for an interview since they are busy shooting their MV clips and promoting the group . Yes , I'm applying for a new girl group/band . They are still new in the industry - like really new .
Well , let's hope I will get this job ! Do pray for me yah !
So ! Let's move on the topic . Today , I watched Burberry Prorsum's Spring/Summer 2011 . I know I kinda late to even make a review about it , but yeah , I just happened to watch it today .
I just wanna give my love and opinion to this well known London brand . That's all . :D
We all know that Burberry is all about details . We can see details in almost every collection . If people ask me , what is the first thing that I would think about Burberry ? I would say trench coat and the well known studded biker jacket .
Well , before this I never paid my attention to Burberry , though they have a bombastic look in their collection , * done in phyton , high quality leather , we can see silk , fringed dresses or leopard ,and studs * but after I saw some of the clips of the model fell on the runaway , and suddenly , it attract me to watch the whole show . It caught my attention with the killer+awesome stage and the front-rowers .
So there's a few things that I like in Burberry Prorsum S/S 2011 -
1 - We can see a a legging transformation here *it's a leather trousers that could pass for leggings * . We no longer see the old - lame - cliche look of leggings that we used to see in runways before , which is quite cool for me because Mr. Bailey had used the different fabric this time and improvised it a little bit .
2 - We no longer see the old - boring leather biker jacket in this collection cuz it's all beautifully studded . It brings out the unique look that we can't see anywhere . So this one really wowed and amazed me .
Some of my favorites !
So yeah , I enjoyed every second of the show . I must say well done Christopher Bailey for a cool and amazing everything in Burberry . Nice set of stage , beautiful model * especially the Asian one * , nice jackets , belts , and handbags . And the front rower , we can see Sarah Jessica Parker , Alexa Chung , Anna Wintour , Serena William , Poppy Delevigne ,Eason Chan to name a few and other A-list socialites .
There is , of course things I don't like about the show - the songs , and the model for the closing . Nina Porter shouldn't have done the closing . It ruined the show . And one more thing , it's obvious that the killer heels/shoes weren't comfortable , based on the way they walked. Cuz two models tripped and one fell ,which is Nina . And the floor was slippery I guess .
Well , that's it . All in all , I adored everything in Burberry . The strong and powerful signature of Burberry; that's what I see in the show .
P/S : OMG , look at the studded skirt below ! Awesome !!
Well , let's hope I will get this job ! Do pray for me yah !

ANTM CYCLE 16 Episode 7
Yuhuuu !!
So today I finally watched America's Next Top Model Cycle 16 episode 7 . Well it's not that I don't have time to finish everything , in fact I am totally free everyday , but I am busy doing something else . Screw that part .
Okay , so for those who have been watching episode 7 will know the catfight going on between Brittani and Alexandria , right ?
So , today they went to the Smashbox studio for a challenge with Nigel Barker . A Ford Warriors in Pink photoshoot to support breast cancer awareness. So whoever wins , will get to be a spoke person for the cause .
They get to choose their own make up and clothes , means that they can wear whatever they want according to their theme , what elements or their inspirations for the photo shoot .
So , a drama happened when Alexandria won the challenge and leave Brittani unhappy ! She said that Alexandria does not embody a role model,because she's fake . But bitch , she deserved it because she works hard to earn it while you gave nothing !
So Alexandria theme was Tree of Love . She came in the set with a soil and stand up on it and pose ! So the bitch was jealous with the fact that Alexandria even won a car . FORD 2012 . And started to create a scene .
I hate Brittani , she says that Alexandria is fake , but actually , she's the one who's fake . Because at least Alexandria is showing her real side of herself and not complaining in front of the client .
Just what the judges said , whatever happens in the house , just leave it there . Be professional .
Seriously . I know some of you might disagree with my post , because Alexandria is playing angel infront of the judges , but I'd rather like Alexandria .
Love , Ami .
