TS Time!



Hello there! Are you still keeping on track with us? If you do, well, you are the lucky one, we guess. If you are not, then mind spending two and half minutes to read this not-run-of-the-mill edition. Hey, you, I mean it.

Well, it’s “Not Just Dreams”, right? So, we’re gonna show you what real things look like. You gonna like it, for sure as we are the best (of course) in realising dreams. Before that, answer these questions. Hehe :P

  1.  Have you ever had your whole body floating in the sky? 
  2. Have you ever experienced your DNA ‘mixing’ with the others? 
  3.  Have you ever ridden on things which run on the pillar’s supporting coil?

If you answer YES for all the questions, you are part of us then. But if you don’t, you better watch this out.

Our dream for this very edition is to be very bold and to overcome our fear. I tell you, this is a journey, of overcoming fears, of three just-graduated-from-high-school girls. An extra-ordinary story of Charlie’s Angels (kidding). This is the story, of three girls, of endless fears. Wow wow wow! Give me the spotlights! Hey, not the cheap ones! Gimme the ones used on Hollywood stage. I’m the star, so listen to me!) 

First and foremost (the most cliché words, EVER), we were so unfortunate as the alarm did not ring well on that day. We woke up late, boo hoo. Actually, I don’t know whose fault it was. Thus, it’s the alarm’s fault. Then we had a bowl of scrumptious home-made porridge for breakfast each, while watching ‘Cikgu Aaliya’ telemovie on Astro. Though it’s quite silly, yet we enjoy most of it.

After a goodbye wave to Amanie’s sister, we were driven to KTM Bangi. It was a nice journey that we had moments of great train before the ‘KL Sentral, KL Sentral’ sound hit our ears. We went to Imbi for the first time in our life by taking monorail. After paying RM 1.60, we got the blue tokens for the entrance pass and there, we hopped on the monorail. I think that it was a thrilling moment as there were a lot of foreigners in the monorail. Hey, I tell you one thing. This one hot dude gave us a charming smile. We are not bad after all, right? Haha. Okay, then we took some videos and photos in the monorail. It is a “Fast and Furious 6” journey. Well, omit 6. 

And, what are we waiting for? It’s Berjaya Times Square Theme Park!


XOXO,
Tuti.

Into The World Of Fashion - FINAL

Beware the stare of Kiki.
This is just the preparation before the shoot. Kiki is in the pile of clothes and being the supervisor of the day.



Salam to all my dearest sahabat,
Well, are you curious to see the result of our photo shoot?
So today, the masterpiece will be shown to you guys!
Okay, the first SUPERMODEL is TUAN ATIKAH TUAN SULONG *clap clap*


Tuti is posing in this long (calf length) green dress. It is worn with a pair of jeans. What we love the most is the animal print on the sleeves and definitely the green colour which is very eye-soothing. Well, the dress looks sweet yet you could see confidence in her (Maybe because of the animal print I guess? You know the animal spirit. Haha). Talking about the animal print, a tip from us to rock it is to minimise the amount of the print on your outfit. If you are wearing a plain outfit, it is best to match your hijab with patterned shawl, so, this will make the clothes become more outstanding.
 

 
This is Tuti again in her second outfit. What we love most about this outfit is definitely the pants and the colour combinations. Well, you have to be brave enough to wear these pants in the public hee. About the colour combinations, it is advisable to wear something bright to match with something pale. Like in this photo, we match a very bright pink with a pale green fishtail which makes her look bright and happy. It also boosts up her aura with the mix of tribal-patterned shawl on her hijab.

  
Okay, so we move on to our model of the day! This is Tia. As you can see that she is wearing outfit with Victorian concept, the ruffles and swirls making her to look decent and sweet. This outfit is suitable to wear when attending any kind of event because it may look casual but formal at the same time. The colour is just nice as it is not too attracting but not too pale at the same time. Even though it does not have any pattern but still the outfit is very attractive and making her becomes more elegant.
  
  
HOHO, Tia again and I personally love this clothes (because it’s my Mum’s during her young). Nowadays peplum is just a reborn from the 80s fashion as you can see this is the original version of peplum. Andddd, look at the shoulder. It is padded but still she managed to pull off these clothes. I also love the way the skirt simply spreads on the floor, looks like a scene from fairy tale. Moreover, this is also the proof that any patterned materials can really make the appearance of the clothes become more beautiful. Look at the outfit itself. See, people still can look pretty even without exposing our aurat.


Well, this is another outfit from the past; the outerwear belongs to my grandma. The thing that I like the most is the embroidery. And this is worn with a very pale grey dress which makes this garment look classic but a twist of modern. As you can also see that, the hijab is worn inside so that the beautiful embroidery can be shown but still it covers up the chest.



I love this outfit because all the items in this photo are LESS EXPENSIVE. Totally love the tribal dress and the heels. Because of the excessive amount of pattern, therefore the choice of shawl and blazer is just plain. So that, it will not be too crowded and causing people to be dizzy. This style of shawl is not advisable to be worn because the looseness may distract our movement and making you feel that you want to do nothing and just stay still.

Thanks for the patience you gave. Hope that you are satisfied with our effort. Till then!

XOXO,
Meny.

Into the World of Fashion



Salam to our dearest brothers and sisters ;)

So last holiday, we have completed one of our member’s dream (Amanie) which is to become a HIJABISTA. Yeay!

Therefore, we went to Amanie’s house since her house is the nearest compared to others’ (Yeah, Tuti’s is in east while Zaty’s is in the south).

But before we proceed to talk about our preparations for our so-called-photo shoot, we witnessed an accident where a lorry’s tire POPPED right in front of our eyes! It’s not a big deal though but, luckily nothing bad happened. Alhamdulillah.

Then, as we arrived, we straight away started to prepare all the stuff needed for the photo shoot.
As for Zaty, she was the camerawoman for the day while the others including our friends, Tia are the models.

So, Amanie dug her closet to find the clothes needed, from her grandma’s clothes to her mother’s. All were scattered on her bed and it looked like a mountain of colorful and beautiful masterpiece.

The first model was Tuti, a girl which I personally think has the model quality as she is thin and photogenic. It was very funny at first because she looked very awkward to do any pose but then during the last session she suddenly knows how to work the clothes well which surprised us. She is also the clown of the day as she kept on trying weird combinations of clothes. But it just happened during the last moment, but since she is photogenic, her photos came out really well I think.

Secondly, the diva of our day: TIA! To tell you the truth, at first I was just joking around her by saying that if she wanted to stay at my house then she needs to be a model, but she did not give any answer. As I asked to choose the clothes that they wanted to wear, she happily chose hers. She really nailed both session and all of us kept on complimenting her causing her cheeks turns as red as apple. AHAHA. But she is very obedient as she followed all the instruction that we gave.

Lastly, I am the last one, hee. Well I just try out my grandma’s clothes which I think I like it the most because even though the design is so 70s, you know the puffy shoulder. But I love it. Nothing special happened, just a photo shoot between me and my dearest, loveable, adorable, fur ball cat named KIKI.

We really had so much fun doing it and we are proudly to say that we did not use any make up at all. NOT EVEN COMPACT POWDER. We use the originally, beautifully sculptured by the hand of Allah, our bare face. (Every Allah’s creation is beautiful right?) So, what we aim for this photo shoot is that people wearing hijab can still be fashionable but must follow accordingly to the guideline stated by Allah, so that we can cover not only our aurat but also our pride. So, happy living everyone!

And to the next post, where we’d display all the photos we’ve taken! Ciao!

Teasers. Hehe.

XOXO,
Amanie.
