متى اتسع نطاق محبتك ،اتسع نطاق الجمال في حياتك. لأنك لا تستطيع أن ترى قباحة في ما تحب ولا جمالاً في ما تكره - ميخائيل نعيم

Post # 1

Fashion and art are my very best things in this life. I've always had an eye for beautiful things no matter what.who.where.when it is! E V E N when I am dreaming!

In fact most of the things I do in my life are illustrated by my dreams. Maybe it is something silly to share but it is true and you know small details are important in ones life!

First gown I have ever designed for my-self was inspired by one of my dreams. I was only 5 years old back then! My mother took us both my sister and me to this very famous designer at that time in Dubai. He used to design our morning dresses and evening gowns as well. He sketched many designs for me, which I refused them all! So my mother suggested that I draw the gown I have in mind and the designer will do it for me! This was not the first indication of a young artist in the house! Because I used to go to bed each night hugging my painting case. You know normal babies would go to beds hugging their teddy bears but I was not that kind of kids at all! But I guess I just loved painting. My mother used to deal with a very stubborn baby girl back then *rolling my eyes*. I am sure that I took this after my mother. Or owh well, maybe in someway at least. My mother is the most elegant lady I know. My sister Sara and I consider my mother as the goddess of style, we’ve never met anyone in her sense of style ... very rich and incredibly flawless.

My sister Sara who has more of my mother style than me is more into classic style, while I am more into colors and edgy items. You will notice this in this blog. Sara is my eldest sister; she is very fashion forward designer. She is just incredible. She always invents new trends before it even get published by fashion magazines. And here in this blog my sister and me will share all of our thoughts in art, fashion, beauty and all!

I hope that through this blog we will take blogging in UAE into new different level. I have no plans and directions for now. So I will let this open for future decisions or perhaps your ideas and requests?

And until then, Keep dreaming :D
