Harem Pants

Hey guys!

I've been OBSESSED with harem pants lately. Of course, it's been a while since they've been in fashion but hey, it's never to late to blog about something you love. What are harem pants you ask? They're baggy, long pants which are tapered at the ankles. Some pants include side pockets which are very convenient to have, but there are some without pockets as well. What I especially adore about these pants are the comfortness that they provide. The bagginess gives your legs area to breathe and enjoyment to walk around in the breeze.

Now, shall we learn some history? I'll keep it to a minimum so don't stop reading yet, this is the best part! Harem Pants originated in the Arabian Peninsula which were more of a traditional wear. Similar pants are worn across the world also known as, shalwar, dimije, kaccha, patiala salwar, turkish trousers, aladdin pants, and many more. These are just a few names that are common and stood out.

Fun fact: I bought my first pair of harem pants back in 2010 thinking they were some form of pajama pants (since they were plain gray in color)... I would wear it to sleep with an accomplished expression on my face because they were extremely comfortable. After a while, when I saw girls wearing them to the mall or even on TV; that's when it hit me that I was doing something completely wrong. Embarrassing, I know but you know what? Till this day, I sometimes wear them to sleep hehe.

In total I only own 3 harem pants right now. Two of which have patterns; one floral (with pockets) and one tribal (without pockets). The other ones are in plain gray with pockets. Harem pants can range from  $10-$30 at any clothing store. I got mine at a fairly reasonable price from Forever21.

Below are some pictures of the harem pants I own and how I wore them.

Enjoy!

❀Campus Blooms❀

Hey guys!

Hope everyone's summer is going fantastic (well those who are on break). I know, I know... I'm horrible! I'm sorry for not posting frequently like I promised. Summer classes are NOT a joke. My plate is completely full this whole summer and I don't even know how i'm coping. I had some spare time right now since I just got back from campus. I decided to post up a few pictures I took around campus today since the flowers and trees look absolutely breath taking. The stunning view while walking to class makes it a bit bearable.

Hope these pictures make your day brighter!

Enjoy!

Floral Pink

Hey guys!

Woah, two posts in one day? What has the world come to!?
Since I had some free time right now, I wanted to get ahead of myself and do another quick post.
I recieved plenty of compliments on my outfit that I am wearing in the video on my last post.
So before we get into all that jazz, THANK YOU! Receiving feedback like that helps me out on what to post for all you nuggets, especially things you guys enjoy.

Anyways, since it's spring I thought why not try on my lovely new pair of floral pants! I've been dying to get a reasonable price on these babies and finally was able to find them.
Fun fact: While I was outside, I almost got attacked by bees because of the floral print... It did not go well, especially since I am deathly afraid of bugs.

Enjoy!

Broken

Hey guys!

Sorry about the delay but finals have been keeping me cooped up in a cave lately.
I am finally done with my freshman year of college! Okay this may sound cliché but... it literally feels like I started college yesterday. Crazy how time just flew by.

Anyways, since I am finally on summer vacation, (only for a week though since i start back up again with summer classes soon... yuck) I will be posting weekly! I have tons and tons of neat things to show you guys AND i'll finally be able to get back on track with my blogging. If any of you have suggestions on what I should post, leave a comment below and i'll try my absolute best to fulfill your wish.

*Cue dramatic music*
And now... what you all have been finally waiting for.

Here's a poem I wrote called "Broken" ツ

DIY Centerpieces

Hey there loves,

I know, I know. It's been a while right? Truly sorry about that but I promise I have a legit excuse. School + Exams + PSA Dinner tasks =  busy Mahnoor
Thank God spring break started yesterday! Now I can sit down and update you lovelies on some neat things.

This past Thursday my University's PSA (Pakistani Student Association) had an annual charity dinner. With all the tension, hard work, and time consumed, the event went better than we expected! We had  Wayne State's Bollywood Jhatka perform (which was amazingly done), a Fashion Show featuring most of our own WSU students, a speaker covering the Hassan Foundation (a non-profit organization we donated our proceeds to), and a henna station.

For more info on the Hassan Foundation or if you would like to donate, check out their website:
http://hassanfoundationusa.org

I always wanted to try and make my own centerpieces, so I took the chance and made all the centerpieces for the dinner. I enjoyed making them even more since it was affordable, fast, and easy. Since I made 10 centerpieces in total, my bill came out to be $20 for all the supplies. 10 centerpieces for 20 bucks is an amazing price compared to the pre made ones which are around $5 per centerpiece. I bought all the supplies from my local Dollar Store. Hopefully this mini tutorial can give you all some ideas on how to easily make them.

Pricing:

• 5 1/4" Fluted Glass Ivy Bowl- $1.00 
• Green Ribbon- $1.00
• White Ribbon- $1.00
• 16-ct. Tealight Candles- $1.00
• 14-oz. Glass Marbles- $1.00

Enjoy!

2014 NAIAS Auto Show

Hi darlings,

This past Sunday I went to the 2014 NAIAS Auto Show (North American International Auto Show). It was held at the COBO Center in Detroit, Michigan.  One word. WOW. Technology is truly increasing within the years and cars are becoming more advanced. The designs and new gadgets featured in the vehicles were to die for. I'm sure a majority of you didn't get the chance to attend the event, so I decided to snap a couple of pictures for you all.


The Auto Show consisted of a total of 40 exhibitors, which were:

• Acura 
• AISIN
• Audi
• Bentley
• BMW 
• Buick
• Cadillac
• Chevrolet
• Chrysler
• Denso
• Dodge
• Fiat
• Ford
• GMC
• Honda
• Hyundai
• Infinity
• Jaguar
• Jeep
• KIA
• Land Rover
• Lexus
• Lincoln
• Mazda
• Mercedes-Benz
• Michelin
• MINI
• Moper
• Nissan
• Porsche
• Ram
• Scion
• Smart
• SRT
• Subaru
• Tesia Motor
• Toyota
• Volkswagen
• Volvo
• ZF

Having a dad whose in the automotive industry paid off. As we moved from one section to the other, he would talk about the history of each company and describe the differences between the engine displays we came across. Basically, he was expressing the love he has for the auto industry through his "mini car lesson" for me, as he put it. I swear his face mirrored an expression of a little kid in a candy store, haha. All in all, it was an amazing experience, especially since I got my own personal tour from my dad. I recommend attending this breath taking event once in your life. Detroit holds the biggest Auto Show compared to the mini ones that are held in different states, which is why you should attend it in the D. What better way to see future cars then in the historic landmark where the auto industry elevated? The Motor City awaits your presence in the 2015 Auto Show.

Enjoy!
Till next time,
