Ramadan Kareem!

Hey everyone, so Ramadan is finally here! It's an amazing feeling. Ramadan Kareem to all the muslims around the world and may ALLAH SWT bless us all! Ameen!

Ramadan is the blessed and holy month in Islam. It's fasting from sunrise to sunset. Yes, we don't drink water either and no we don't die. I love Ramadan, waking up for suhoor and all the preps and yummy food for Iftaar. Okay so obviously, it's not just about food. It's about worshipping, getting close to ALLAH and praying. Reading Quran, giving charity and helping others are all a big part of what Ramadan is all about.

Ramadan is the blessed and holy month because Quran was completed in Ramadan. It is either on the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th or the 29th of Ramadan. From these 5 nights, one of them is the night of power, it is said to be better than 1000 months.

Mainly, it's all about learning patience, and feeling what the less fortunate feel. It's a beautiful month! I hope everyone is praying, reading quran and of course having yummy food for Iftar! Since, my bag got snatched recently, I don't have a phone and well that's why no picture either. It's the first roza (fast) today and Alhumdulillah going really well.

*The month of ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Saum (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not observe Saum (fasts) must be made up] from other days. Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you. (He wants that you) must complete the same number (of days), and that you must magnify Allah [i.e. to say Takbir (Allahu Akbar; Allah is the Most Great] for having guided you so that you may be grateful to Him.

(Al-Baqara, Chapter #2, Verse #185*

Anyways, until next time. Have a safe and blessed Ramadan!

My favorite brand

So, by now, I am sure you guys know I love fashion and clothes! If you don't know, I am telling you now. I love fashion and clothes! I have an obsession with clothes.

So today, I am writing about my favorite brand as far as Eastern wear goes. This brand is like awesome. Of course, I love it wayyyy too much and that's Khaadi! Khaadi is always coming out with something new. From the kurta's they have to the embroidered tights to the unstitched outfits! Their duppata's are to die for. It's colorful and fun! The combinations are so gorgeous! When I go shopping, I personally go look at Khaadi first thing, wait for Khaadi's lawn collections!

They also have amazing bags and shoes. Although they're limited, they're gorgeous! I am hoping to get the golden kolapuri chapal's for Eid myself and I got a dress from their Eid collection. I am a regular customer at Khaadi and if you can, go to the Bahadurabad branch. Their customer service is amazing and I love the way they deal with their customers, it's better than any other branch I've been to. The prices for the outfits are reasonable as well. The kurta's go from 2500 up to 5000, the unstitched have different prices. The shoes are from 1200 up to 2000 (I guess). The bags are 2500+ but it's different and unique.

The have a lot of variety in the kurta's! They have printed and embroidered. I love both. Their designs represent the youth, elegance and it's just love! :) They also have embroidered tights, plain tights and printed tights in lots of colors.

They also have kurta's for men! I love them, the colors, the soberness. It's nice! I got my dad to buy a grey kurta, the color my dad had been looking for in so long and trust me, we looked everywhere! We finally found it at Khaadi and my dad loves it! So their men's collection is worth checking out too.

Khaadi also has bed sheets and cushions as well. They recently launched Khaadi Kids collection. They don't have kid's outfits at all the branches. They have it at Atrium, Zamzama and Parktowers! I saw the kid's collection for the first time and I liked it.

Here's their website if anyone want's to have a look:
