Good Night
Towards the horizon I slowly drift. Further away, I might not return. Completely to His Might, I surrender.Whatever will be, shall be. So I say my final words. Through silent whispers my heart could hear aloud. With much love and beauty of hope, I bid you good night and see you tomorrow. (God-willing).
Returning to You
Last night I woke up finding myself unable to breathe. In reflex to hold on to life, I used my inhaler in a hope for immediate relief. Yet, such a relief I didn’t find. The pain of breathlessness overtook, and sudden realization struck, “Death! Is this how it would feel like? Am I going to […]
Duty Over Love
Love is the death of duty. ~ Master Aemon Targaryen of Game of Thrones’ The Wall ~ Does true love exist? Is happily ever after meant for this worldly life? You have lived your life for others way too long you couldn’t remember when exactly the last time you selfishly simply went for one of […]
Blissful Tawakuf Night
Our last few days of the month of Sha’ban were spent joyously in preparation to welcome the blessed month of Ramadhan. Kicking it off with the closing (tawakuf) of our Saturday night weekly taklim, we were privileged that our #MealFor80 monthly project and #RamadhanDatesDistributionDrive coincided on the same night that the closing of taklim was […]

USB Vintage Fan – A Cooling Breeze for Your Notebook!
It’s been a while I didn’t write about interesting products. As a writer, with frequent inspirations flowing into my heart, and mind, I’d have to cleverly pick and choose, which I would easily get the resources on. Hence, it would usually be movie reviews that I prioritise, due to numerous image sources available online. Yet, […]
Moroccan-style Goldilock Kaftans
Why Goldilock? To see the origin of this name, please click here. Embroidered with golden threads and laces around the neckline, waist line and sleeves, these chiffon kaftans are designed in what said to be ‘Moroccan-style’. Whether it is true or not, or if it is only named so for marketing purpose, I am not […]
Double Haicon Goldilock Kaftans
Why Goldilock? To see the origin of this name, please click here. As smooth as but thicker than chiffon, this kaftan model, made of double haicon, is decorated with golden thread and laces around the neckline, shoulders, waist line and sleeves. Similar to the “Mote” Tunic Kaftan, this model is also suitable for both semi-formal […]
Goldilock Chiffon Kaftans
I am very much aware that “Goldilock” has no relation at all with clothing, clothing materials or accessories. Nor does the story “Goldilock and the Three Bears” have anything to do with gold or golden colours. Is the name “Goldilock” given to the little girl because her hair is golden blonde? No one knows. Yet, […]
Laces-decorated Chiffon Kaftans
Fully stocked, only recently launched, this kaftan struck me for its resemblance with what the Indonesian people know as “Kaftan Ashanty”. Introduced by the Indonesian singer Ashanty, many local tailors have now reproduced similar versions. Made of lightweight, plain-woven, sheer chiffon, this kaftan can be practical for attendance to semi-formal or formal occasions, whether planned […]
“Mote” Tunic Kaftans
Not knowing the English term for what in my country called mote, I was simply attracted to the design of this kaftan. Decorated with colourful flat, thin, plastic, crystal-like beads – mote as commonly known by the Indonesian tailors, this tunic kaftan conveys the message of glamour overlaying simplicity. Ideally worn in semi-formal occasions such […]
Satin Dove Japanese Kaftans
You may wonder why I named these kaftans “Japanese Kaftans”. Well, to start with, these kaftans do not come from Japan, nor do they incorporate Japanese style or design. So, what is so Japanese about it? Notice the sequins hand-sewn on the beautiful embroidery decorating the kaftans, they are what the Indonesian tailors refer to […]
