Vintage

Vintage



I've always liked vintage dresses, they give an elegant touch to a woman's look. They're also very cute and comfy to be honest. 

When I saw the dress it was love on first sight. The little ruffle details on the shoulders, the belt and the split in the dress finished the perfect look. I styled it up with a hat (of course) and vintage sunglasses and heels to create a classy look. 

Some 40 ties fashion history


















The 1940s brought us pin-ups girls and elegantly accessorized ensembles. Tupperware was invented, and It’s a Wonderful Life debuted in all its Christmas glory. Due to World War II, money was tight and merchandise was largely rationed. Fabric may have been limited, but the fashion of the 1940s never faltered. 

A woman’s outfit was never complete without the accessories of the time. Coordinated driving gloves were a style must-have, and clothing was bright and colorful. The early 1940s saw shorter hemlines due to fabric rations, but the skirts returned to their longer lengths and fuller proportions post-war. Women showed off their midsections with tight waists, cinched belts, and peplum accents. Shoulder pads created the illusion of an even more dramatic hip to waist ratio. 

After the war, island prints gained popularity due to the tropical souvenirs the soldiers brought back with them. Gingham fabric and ruffled details were very popular.






dress: Primark  / hat: veritas / heels: Primark ( they're very comfortable and the quality is suprisingly very good)

What food to eat or avoid during Ramadan

What food to eat or avoid during Ramadan First of all ramadan kareem to all my beloved readers. (I'll keep it short I promise) The reason I wrote this blog is because each year I see A LOT of people post a huge amount of food and different dishes on social media. But first of all let's all remember that Ramadan (concerning food!) is not about food but about reducing the amount of food we eat to become more health conscious. Fasting during Ramadan can improve your health, but only if done in a proper way, if not, it will cause more harm to you than good.  I looked up some nice articles on food we should eat or avoid during ramadan to make sure we all survive ramadan without feeling to much hunger. I found two tables which are very helpfull in terms of eating the good/ avoiding the wrong food.  What food to eat/avoid for suhoor What food to eat/ avoid for iftar I hope this will help you guys! May Allah bless you and forgive your sins! 💗 ...

Be So Happy  Hey girls!  I know it has been a long time since I've written a blog but here I am again with some good newzz 💓 So as most of you know I don't only have a passion for fashion but also for SPORTS 💪So I always try to keep my body weight in balance since I also like food A LOT.  Be So Happy is a Dutch company that created a new concept on healthy shakes for girls. Many of us are always trying to create a better version of ourselves but of course in order to achieve that we have to take care of our nutrition as well. I had the chance to try out two different shakes, the Clean Green healthy shake & Vanilla Sky fit and shape shake. I've tried to drink shakes before but I mostly didn't like the taste and it was a waiste of money for me.So I gave up on shakes and I was totally against it. So before trying out the shakes I was a little hesitating if I should start this journey or not. 😕  I tried them both and surprisingly enough I...
