Fashion and Make Up

Bought 4 of these pants for RM170 (murah kan?) The fourth colour is black and I’ve worn it twice

I ada masalah sakit nk pakai jeans sejak bersalin due to friction between skin (surgery scar) and fabric. Tapi disebabkan tk ada seluar lain sangat, I cuma ada jeans dan seluar mengandung, nak tak nak kena pakai juga la jeans. Tapi lama-lama mmg rasa tk selesa and sakit perit kt tempat pembedahan. Ingat nk cari seluar lain, I suka seluar yg warna warni or bercorak sbb tk la boring sgt, tapi susah nk cari yg jenis getah yg tkyah nk zip atau butang bagai. I nk cari yg sarung je sbb if ada zip dan butang nnt sakit kene parut pembedahan tu.

Seluar yg mcm yoga pants or cotton spandex or lycra tu I tk minat sgt, sbb tk berapa nk tahan lama dan nampak mcm santai atau nampak mcm seluar rumah sgt, coz sometime nk kene nampak well dressed juga especially bila jumpa my Cosway prospect.

Mmg susah nk cari, tapi weekend hari tu, masa jalan2 dating dgn husband, terjumpa kedai jual seluar yg mcm2 warna and the best thing it’s stretchable dan pinggang pon getah, tkder zip and butang. Memang sarung je. Wah happy gila. Satu masalahnya seluar tu skinny cutting, sebaik ada size sampai XXL, so i beli size yg paling besar tu jadi bila I pakai dia longgar tak ketat ikut shape and the salesgirl told me after 1-2 wash the size will expand lagi. Yay!

Harga sangat murah! I like. 2 for RM85. Murah kan? I beli 4. Hehe.

Sebenarnya kan, I macam tkder semangat nk update blog lagi. It always like that. Bila preggie jer sure tkder selera dgn blog. When I was pregnant with my first child, pon sama tkder selera nak update blog  up to the point tgk blog boleh nk rasa muntah. And it was then I changed my blog design and now I think I need to revamp my blog again. Arghhh boleh bankrupt macam ni. Kalau mengandung 10 anak? 10 kali nk tukar design blog? Huhuh.

So sorry for lack of updates. Mmg tkder selera nk berblogging sangat. But I still available on the social network site like facebook and twitter. So, apa-apa hola me there ok. Ok can also drop comment here, I selalu jer monitor comment and will reply soonest possible. Update blog jer jarang. Ehe.

Available in 5 colors. Biege sold to someone already. So, there’s only 4 left, light mustard, dusty pink, fuchsia and olive green. Price is RM299. Material is satin and comes with pretty border lace in black/white. I designed the sleeve as such (mcm ada fin at the back) so that you can roll up your sleeve easily while taking ablution (wuduk). I make all 5 in M size. Org size lain jangan sedih ok. Nnt kalau ada rezeki I can make for other size also. Actually there’s one more Abaya Dress available in grey-purplish , but that one material is cotton mix and ada ropol2 cantik dekat sleeve and neckline. Tapi yg tu, the sketch is in my other pc, so tk dpt upload. Size is M also and price is RM199 for that one.

Oh about the entry title. I mmg jual baju raya sebenarnya. Still dlm pembikinan. Insyallah June siap. Limited pieces available. Very very limited. Sbbnya, sajer nk try test market. I tk pernah buat baju ready made, so this is first time everrrr and it would be a very decent Abaya Dress for Nilam Boutique Ramadhan Collection. Very nice sesuai pakai masa gi terawih , but ada unsur2 glam sket sbb i letak narrow beaded lace along the neckline and sleeve utk kasi menyerlah sket so sesuai dipakai masa raya nnt

Tudung raya pon insyallah akan ada, very limited pieces juga dalam 10 pieces (5 colours), thinking nk buat half moon shawl/veil with beads and also thinking of selling some chiffon printed shawl. Tapi masih dlm planning sbb esok baru meeting with tailor. Other than that, insyallah next week I update gambar2 kain cotton comel utk buat kurung ok. Boleh beli kain and tempah kurung terus dgn I, save time, save petrol, save energy. Dah siap I can just post the kurung to you.

Paisley cotton kurung pahang. This one not for sale ya. It’s for yours truly. Heee. But if you wish to get lovely cotton fabric as above, wait for my next update ok. Am gonna sell some next week insyallah. Price range would be around RM85 for 4 meters. And to those who wants to tempah kurung pahang with me, yeah I still got some slot available for tempahan. But you must hurry ok, afraid if I need to close order soon.

Beria-ia nk raya? Puasa pon belum lagi? Ok, tahun ni mmg I nk buat preparation awal for my family and customers. Firstly sbb I deliver baby insyallah in August yakni bulan ramadhan! Tkkan la nk sibuk2 dengan tempahan lagi time tu kan? Another thing, I prefer bulan Ramadhan ni, my husband relaks and boleh menunaikan ibadah dgn tenang dan aman, tanpa perlu nk sibuk2 tolong I ke sana kemari, settle kan orders dan juga tailors pon dah cakap bulan Ramadhan tkkan menjahit sbb diaorg nk gi terawih. Jadinya, semua kene siap awal sebelum bertemu Ramadhan yg mulia

Contoh kurung untuk kanak-kanak. Harga tempahan bermula dari RM30 – RM50 (berdasarkan umur). Yang gambar ni, contoh kurung dengan border lace dekat lengan. Pretty pleaseeee.

Oh yer selain dari Abaya Dress, I ada juga sediakan telekung siap utk dijual. Juga limited pieces. Almaklum biznes kecil-kecilan , everything kene start small dulu. Design bahagian muka agak special, memandangkan kebanyakkan telekung dipasaran , bahagian muka selalu tk fit muka sangat, often terlalu besar dan longgar. Jadi, I try buat design yg bahagian muka tu lebih selesa dipakai. Yg confirm ada 5 pieces pink, grey and white (polyester) and 2 pieces white stripey emboss cotton with embroidery sarong. Price vary depending on type of fabric. Sepatutnya ada lagi 5 pieces from cheaper type fabric, tapi yg ni I tk sure lagi jadi ker tak nk buat.

Since, I ada quite many item to sell, I need few female models. So sesiapa berminat nk jadi model for my boutique. Kindly email me your photos at info [at] nilamboutique [dot] com. I juga tengah mencari duta for my product, meaning I akan guna model tu utk jangka masa yg panjang. Jadi saper rasa diri layak, boleh apply ok. Ciri-ciri adalah seperti di bawah.

• Cantik, manis, pretty, lovely and beautiful (can’t stress more on this)
• Photogenic
• Good skin complexion
• Height : 165cm – 170cm
• Weight : 55kg-60kg
• Preferably muslim (other race also can be considered)
• Preferably a hijabi
• Preferably single (married woman also can be considered)
• Confident to pose in front of camera is an advantage

I know I jarang update blog, but watch this space for cotton fabric update, insyallah next week ya. I planned to buy about 10 set of fabrics only, hand pick by me. So, you guys got to be hurry ya.

Till then…oyasumi nasai (selamat malam)

I received a new order for “kurung moden” which inspired from Syomir Izwa’s design for Yuna. I changed the design a bit to suit my customer though, especially for the sarong I give it a little more glam look by adding reversible tail and I’ve also changed the mundane cutting of “kurung moden” to princess cut. Other than that customer also had specifically requested for 3D fabric flowers just like the one that I did for my previous customer. You can read my post regarding the 3D fabric flowers here.

So, here is the sketch, I drew this when I was at my kampung. I always feel more relax and comfortable to draw when I’m far away from town or big city. Sound like mengada kan? Macam lah I ni pelukis handalan yg memerlukan inner piece utk menghasilkan lukisan ajaib…so just bear with me lah yer…huhu

I’m going to design a matching hijab/tudung for this attire, so stay tune for the sketch ok. Insyallah will upload it soon.

Oh btw, recently I created a new blog . You can view the blog by clicking on this link http://postrecipeoflife.blogspot.com/view/snapshot , it’s actually a place for me to keep all the inspirational quotes, unique stories, jokes, funny stuff, Islamic teaching and guide and anything! You guys can also contribute to the blog by emailing me the stuff that you want me to post in that blog. The idea to create that blog kinda came to me spontaneously, when I was sooo sooo upset with my messy and unorganized computer. Things that I put up on that blog was among things that contributed to my computer messiness. I’m so glad and relief as all those quotes, cartoon and stuffs finally had a new home now. I won’t be writing anything there (except when I terlebih rajin) , I wanna keep it simple. Don’t forget to bookmark it ok!

U know what I love colors. I could spend several hours in stationery shop browsing and selecting colors that I want and it always ended up with me buying all of it. Haha, I’m a terrible chooser when it comes to colors and stationery. They are all darn cute, aren’t they?

These are my current humble collections of color pencils, glitter pen, color fineliner (the one budak-budak uni and spm suka beli konon2 nk buat nota rainbow, last2 penat nk tukar2 color and confuse dgn penggunaan warna terlalu banyak tatau mana satu yg penting dalam itu nota…aha sound familiar?), then I do also own bunch of markers yang I tatau kenapa I beli? because marker that I want takder jual so I just beli whatever marker yg ada but ended up tk guna sangat, buat guna tulis nama food and date dekat plastic makanan yg nk dibekukan. Actually utk lukis illustration ada type of marker yg sgt sesuai, the one I bought mmg tk sesuai , it soak my paper and round tip , I tk suke round tip sgt but yet I beli. Haihhh. Bukan satu lak tu, cam about 6-8 kot)

Color pencil pulak dah banyak kali beli but dah entah ke mana2 sbb konon2 nk ajar Ichiro colouring, lepas tu tatau tah apa dh jadi dgn warna-warna tu. Dah la tu kotak besar! Warna sekarang bukan murah ok, dulu boleh la beli below RM10 satu kotak. Sekarang bapak mahal! Mencanak naik sampai 30-40 hengget sekotak. Cam nk sama dgn umur I plak. Kalau umur I naik 32 harga warna naik jadi 32 ringgit. Kalau umur 60? Uishhh itu pensil warna electronic gamaknya.

Ok whatever, kenapalah aku merepek pasal warna ni sbb actually wanna show you 2 of my latest design that I managed to sketch – ahhh finally. Because I’ve been under the weather for 3 days, not feeling well sejak Ichiro tk sihat hari tu. But neway, alhamdullilah siap juga my sketch. I will only sketch the design complete with color scheme once everything has been confirmed and discussed thoroughly with customer. Tanak la karang dah cantik2 color bagai, cakap nk tukar design. Confirm I charge double nnt ok. Hehe.

Ini I design utk Siti Fatimah punya baju raya haji. She’s a regular customer of Nilam Boutique. To those who wants me to design, sketch, buy the fabrics and sew the dress/blouse/skirt/anything for you, feel free to contact me ok click HERE. I’d be happy to take your orders including wedding dress tau. Insyallah I can take orders to make custom shoe as well. In the sketch, you can see there’s a note part kan? Yg dekat bawah. That will be space for me to stick my fabric swatch for the design and once complete I’ll make a color copy of the sketch and pass it to my dressmaker.

Wow, I can’t believe am actually doing this, design and such. Now I know why am so obsessed with colors and art since I was a child. I know that maybe my sketch is no good, but hey am proud of it baju-baju yg i design normally mmg simple and practical. Cuma kalau baju wedding ada lebih perincian and details sket. So wait for my 2 new designs, kali ni baju pengantin pulak complete with veil and tudung special Stay tune!

Happy monday and cheer up ok. Can’t wait for weekend by the way coz I wanna eat my mom’s masak lemak labu, sambal belacan, terung goreng cili api, bubur nasi dengan sambal ikan bilis arghhhh drooling yo. Sodap tak terkata ( Ini lah dia org yg dah 3 minggu tk balik kampung hehe)

Diaorg ni nk gi jalan raya

Hi! Heee.. lama eh tk blogging. Minggu lepas tkder la busy mana pon, sbb selalu I give excuse busy teramat sbb tu tk update blog. Last week was different, I wasn’t busy but just…lazy. Rasa tk semangat nk buat apa-apa. So, jadinya minggu lepas sangat tidak productive. Dah la ending drama Asmara 2 macam harammmmm. Tah hapa2. Buang masa haku tengok. Asmara 1 much better. Asmara 2 tkyah tengok pon tak apa, sbb not really pasal Asmara pon, tk habis2 pasal org jahat nk culik adam and zalia dok menyamar jadi suhana and be friend dgn asmara n melati. At the end, Melati tetap rasa Asmara tak cintakan dia sepenuh hati and Zalia tk dapat nak bersama Asmara so pindah US. Asmara di persimpangan, di sini mahu di sana menanti. Blerrghhh apa ke bende ending mcm tu? Siot betul.  Tapi I found a new love….Nora Elena…haha jeng jenggg..dah tengok 3 episode akan pulun sampai habis. Wow weeee.

Neway, towards weekend dah semangat balik. Sebabbbbbbb website shopping Nilam dah nk siapppppp! Yay! Actually dah 90% siap, tinggal i nk configure payment method bagai for the web and gallery. So, u guys can take a peek dulu. Ada byk grammar and spelling error and also bug here and there. I belum go through betul2 lagi, just taip cepat2 whatever sbb nk tengok the outcome. Will fix it soon. So don’t expect it to be 100% perfect lagi tau.

Mari-mari check out my Nilam Boutique online store http://www.nilamboutique.com

Newest photo I shoot last weekend adalah gambar Nelly and Isma bergaya mcm nk hari raya dengan baju kurung pahang polkadot exclusive dari Nilam Boutique. If you guys berminat nk beli the fabric can also buy it from me. RM30 semeter. Nnt lah I upload gambar fabric polkadot tu.Tempahan baju utk Hari Raya dah semakin nk suntuk, by end of June ni I don’t think tailor2 akan amik tempahan, kalau ada pon tailor yg mahal. Tapi if sanggup bayar, boleh jer tempah

Oh btw, luka I dah baik dah bertaut alhamdullilah tkyah kene stitching. Hehe. Tobat dah tanak guna pisau sgt lagi dah sekarang. Euwwww.
