No really, Fabric, not any fabric, the good quality, not just quality, the right color tone, not just the color, the texture; mixed together, the right way is just heavenly. You need to be daring, you need to buy pieces you love, and mix them without being afraid. As long as they fit well, they will look good. Start breaking the rules, there are no color rules or fabric rules, they just have to look good. They can be 5 different colors, 6 different fabric types, and yes it is trendy and in fashion, but the question remains? does it look good? So here are my choice of what I think is very good looking in terms of different fabric and color assembling. All pictures are from http://www.style.com

Amman – Jabal Amman – Rainbow | Part 1
What a lovely day. So this is not the first time I cover Jabal Amman on my blog, seriously you can never get bored with this incredible area. I went for an early walk with my friend Amira and we stumbled upon the most beautiful houses, scenery and gardens. A life full of opportunities and surprises only when you are open for them. I suggest you try to walk down the corner after Falafel Al Quds towards downtown area, you will find 7iber building on your right which is a must see, and if you wish to have a tiny little urban office or share one you can try it out, it is defiantly an experience worth living.
A great song I stumbled upon Simpre Me Queddara by Bebe
In love with my Canon EOS 70D
Morning Diary Day 6 – Deir Ghbar Abdoun Amman Jordan

Amman – Deir Ghbar – Abdoun
There is something about sequence that just attract me, the way the trees look, or windows, houses and even the tiles. I just find something so inspiring about them, as well as color combinations that most probably happen coincidentally. I also think the sky looks phenomenal when it is cloudy, truly walking around your city is a different experience.
In Jordan, we are mostly in our cars driving around. I suggest we all try to get out there by foot, you can meet new people, breathe fresh air, and enjoy the little details around the houses and gardens. Today, I had my earphones and chose one of my favorite playlists on 8tracks. I truly lived a fairytale walking over earth, listening to great music, and taking pictures with my Canon EOS 70D of just anything that attract me.
Patterns speak for themselves… Wear them out in 2015 from the spring summer ready to wear NYFW
I just love patterns, not only do I love them, I love wearing them, staring at them and photographing them. Patterns are music, they speak, they sing, they are everything about your outfit. It can be simple, hip, classy, chic, or crazy. They fit with every culture, a worldwide language. Fashion is a language, with colors and patterns; it becomes a message. Here are my favorite pattern looks from the New York Spring Summer 2015 Fashion Week. All pictures are courtesy of http://www.style.com
Learn, Imagine, be open, believe and let go…
The Prophet Mohammad PBUH said, “God inspires wisdom in the tongue of the teacher according to the aspirations of the student.” Very similar to
“When the student is ready, the master appears.” #BuddhistProverb I find myself in those quotes, for things really show up only when I am ready for them. Maybe if they have showed up before I completely disregarded, or completely ignored for I was not aware of them, it’s amazing how things work and become clear only when your inner self is ready for it. Knowledge is what inspires us to where we really want to go for how else would we know? Being positive leads us to positivity & happy choices. Curiosity is a given gift to question and seek the answers to our passion or interests. But there is so much in this world to learn about, how is one just resting waiting for the nothing to happen? Another beautiful quote I stumbled upon earlier this morning : “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” -Albert #Einstein So after learning or observing; dream, imagine, sit with yourself; pray, meditate and travel within. Listen to your inner callings your within desires hopes dreams. Your clarity to where you wish to take your soul, your destination that could be your destiny. It’s not new, it’s been said over and over again thousands of years ago, why isn’t all this part of our primary education? Learn, imagine, be open, believe and let go… Eventually with your will and your faith things will work out better than you have even imagined. Keep it peaceful and be grateful. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Seeking is a reason for being alive.. Learn how to seek for what you long for in an artful way…
Art is in everything we see and in everything around us. All you got to do is change your sight, location or concentration. Try to see things as the best reason to have ever happen. If we see everything as it purely is, our need to long for something, strive or work for something will vanish and our need of being will no longer be required. Seeing what we need out of our day, week or life is a vision we form and is a reason to exist. Focusing on the wrong attitude to do what you long for will drain you and tire you, but learning that the reason rests behind the achievement, and understanding that there is knowledge behind achieving, is the art in seeing your destination. Live life in an artful way, in your own way, seek the giver and not the given, look at your destination & not your journey, visualize your achievements and not how they will be achieved. Life is about living and letting go, accepting that our existence matter because we have a path to walk through for a reason. Let the reason be artful, let yourself enjoy the process and be grateful all day every minute of every hour for everything. ❤️ start your day by visualizing a Heartful happy smile.
Classic Chic is your best backup outfit… Here are my favorite looks from the NYFW Spring Summer 2015
Classic chic is the best outfit when you are feeling neutral, when you wish to stand out in elegance. It can be classy hip, dressy, formal, day wear, evening wear, it works with any dress code at anytime and in any place. I recommend we all have a few backup outfits for the days we feel like nothing and just wish to carry our bodies in something that speaks for itself. Here are my favorite classic chic looks from New York Fashion Week Spring Summer 2015. All pictures are courtesy of http://www.style.com
Morning Diary Day 5 – The suburbs of Jordan
Part 1
September 14 2014
In the suburbs of Jordan between Dabouq Amman and Salt
If you ever visit Jordan, you will love the people. Meet the locals and Spend a day in the suburbs of Jordan. This here is the residence of Sukhtian Family, beautiful souls and a beautiful house. My friend Anoud planned a cooking competition that ended up with great chefs making yummy dishes. Walnut salad, pasta with tomato sauce, grilled chicken “BBQ Mashawi style”, Cannelloni, dark chocolate cake pudding and the best of all homemade Nabulsi Knafeh that is to die for. Make sure you ask for the Knafeh if you visit Jordan, Palestine or Lebanon… Just Yummieee… All pictures are taken with my favorite Canon 7D… Oh and my very favorite song of the day Andrew Belle – In my veins.
Two things define you… & Yes you are a genius
Sometimes we waste so much time on our thoughts, thinking over and over again that we miss on the big things. Our feelings are our direction, our nature of being present, the love that already surrounds us, and all the other given by God & life are just treasurable. It is true the saying that goes: 2 things define you: patience when you have nothing and your attitude when you have everything… What is life without patience & without the right attitude ?? What kind of life would you like to live if you can’t share it with the people around you? Life is beautiful because it is as it is. Fill it with joy by finding your inner source and your route.“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid” Einstein. Coming from a genius we truly are all geniuses, but each differently. So find your source, your inner self your inner beauty; THAT should define you. Have a wonderful blessed start of the week to the people in the Middle-East and a beautiful Sunday Morning to everyone around the world.
