10 online shopping sites hijabistas should know
Radiusite (Shawl)–Siapa tak kenal website ni. Pantang letak tudung je, sehari dua terus sold out. Penaja utama tudung Akak Sheila Rusli dan beberapa drama tempatan. Memang sekarang ni banyak nampak nama dia kat kredit hujung drama. Suratkhabar dah beberapa kali feature Radiusite. Pemilik butik online ini memulakan perniagaan dengan menjual design tudung yang unik pada harga yang berpatutan. Daripada bukak onlin shop hingga kini mampu memiliki butik sendiri di Bangi. Memang kelass. You guys can never find the same tudung from any other boutique. Her design is creative and fresh. Very prompt reply and delivery.
Sugarscarf (Instant Hijab)-This is my favourite online site. Sangat cantik design tudung dia. I love lycra fabric. Easy for me as a mother and who is a lazy bum bab iron mengiron. Awning banyak pakai thai silk or shantung. Buy 3 for Rm100. Kalau orang tanya soalan “Beli tudung kat mana?” Memang kene promote laa blogshop ni. Blogshop yang ni pun cepat sold out.
Thepoplook (Apparels and accessories)–Ni lagi satu website yang banyak amat follower. Laju je jualan dia. The price for a simple chic design nampak mahal but actually it’s worth the quality. Kain skirt dia memang tebal. Senang la kerja orang malas nak cuci tangan macam eyekneekawai. Ehehe. Jadi mak memang kena banyak curi masa.
buttonmybuttons (Apparels and jewellery)–Ya ampun! Kalau tak tau online shop n memang la. I am a fan of bow and ribbons. Baju kurung dia banyak design yang unik dan cute. Featuring many local artists such as Yasmin Hani, Tiz Zakiyah, Neelofa and Marsha AF. Ramai artis jadi client dan model. Her beautiful wedding dress for Natasha Hudson had wowed the crowd. Banyak lagi peluang bagi anda yang nak merasa design Shahida Shariff (the owner). Shahida is a rising star.
Hana Tajima Maysaa (Fashion apparel)-She is an icon who has created a new wave of muslimah fashionista. Orangnya lawa, cute dan kreatif. Kacukan UK dan Jepun, HT (Hana Tajima) punyai pemikiran tersendiri, lan daripada yang lain bila mencipta gaya fesyen. Dia punya style tudung sangat simple dan menarik. Snood ciptaan dia, memang comfy dan practical. HT Selalu dijemput untuk event hijabista di Malaysia. Sometimes Maysaa has promotion for Malaysian delivery. Cool huh?
Humaira Contemporary (Inner, Tudung) Siapa yang suka design elegant, eksklusif dan matang, boleh jenguk blogshop ni. Tapi kena cepat la. Selalu sold out. Banyak kali menghiasi majalah tempatan. Kalau pakai tudung dari sini, andalah orang yang bergaya di majlis kenduri nanti.
Eightdesigns–Banyak kali online shop ni keluar dalam media massa. Antara perlopor online shop hijabista yang terawal. I like their tag “Let’s cover up in style” Kini butik bukan virtual telah dibuka di Bangi dan para peminat fesyen boleh mengintai koleksi baju dan tudung yang sering dimuatnaik di laman ini.
Old Blossom Box–The petite designer yang pernah muncul dalam realiti TV Malaysian Project Runway (First and the only season), berani bergaya dengan kasut tumit tinggi dan gaya hijab yang menarik. Design bajunya sangat comel, ada sesetengah fabrik diimport. Juga banyak menggunakan bow dan pastel colour. Butik Jezmine Zaidan kini dibuka di Shah Alam raya collection menanti kedatangan anda!
Pastelina (Apparels) Design dia memang sangat cute.Gabungan dua fashion designer yang berbakat Shea Rasol dan Adriani Adnan, gabungan idea mereka menggunakan warna pastel telah menyebabkan ramai pelanggan kecewa. Sebab cepat sangat sold out. Tapi sekarang sorang tu tengah busy dengan her pregnancy. So to merge the brainy idea of both, tunggu je la dulu.
Iamjetfuelshop (Apparels and scarf) Siapa tak kenal Yuna Zarai, artis Malaysia yang kini melebarkan sayapnya di US. She’s an icon of hijabista and I could not leave her from this list. The designs are fresh, funky and very chic. So, what are you waiting for?
Semua online shopping sites yang telah disenaraikan di sini dipilih berdasarkan popularitinya, rating user, customers feedback and the appearance in public media. Mana online shop yang tak tersenarai tu jangan kecil hati ya. Every blogshop has its own identity. Selamat menutup aurat dan menjaga maruah!
Girls like fashion
Girls are like fashion brand
This post is full with metaphors and figurative language. I hope you get the message.
Girls are like fashion brands. There are brands which belong to high street fashion. The boutique exists almost anywhere. They are effortlessly stylish but they are affordable. Statistically, major goes for high street fashion.
There are a few who can afford exclusive fashion brand like Louis Vuitton and Fendi. They are either patiently collect money over a long time, or they are born with a silver spoon in their mouth. People appreciate exclusive brand and take a good care of it greatly. One may want to put exclusive brand in a special glass case. Not wanting other people to touch it. Not many can own it. Thus, it is so special that it is not being paraded.
There are cheaper and fake brands. But many won’t have pride in wearing these brands. Usually, these brands are quickly perished and replaced with a new one. Also, they are usually be put on the floor, as there are not much value of it.
Guys are like eBay bidders. Good eBay bidders would wait for the most wanted item. Of course, the most wanted item is wanted by everyone and many would like to chase the same item. They are willing to put the highest price, snapping others. There are bidders who would patiently wait for the good stuff and get the best bargain.
So, which brand you want to be?
Fesyen berkabung
Hari Isnin, datang ke sekolah dengan tudung hitam. Kononnya nak berkabung. Tapi rupanya salah warna. Kalau negeri Johor berkabung kena pakai tudung putih. My husband patah balik rumah ambik songkok berlilit renda putih. Katanya ada orang yang tak mengenakan pakaian berkabung kena saman RM300. Uih. Tak berfesyen kabung pun kena denda mahal camtu eh? So orang yang tak biasa pakai songkok dan tudung ini pun pakailah apa yang patut.
(credit: mytalento.com)
Kesimpulannya, kita sebenarnya boleh berfesyen mengikut syarak. Kalau arahan pemerintah di dunia kita boleh ikut sebab takut kena saman, perintah Allah pun kita boleh ikut sebenarnya kerana takutkan azab di neraka. Marilah mulakan reformasi diri sempena tahun baru ini.
Mudahan Allah mencucuri rahmat ke atas Sultan Johor, Alallah Sultan Iskandar Ibni Almarhum Sultan Ismail.
Memetik kata-kata hikmah Ustaz Zamri (ustaz sekolah aku laa) “Dari suruh orang pakai songkok renda putih, baik la suruh orang sedekahkan Al-Fatihah”
Al-Fatihah.

Online boutique 101
I am glad there are many online boutique nowadays. I miss the time (in Plymouth) when I was able to buy apparels from high street fashion boutique like Dorothy Perkins, eBay and Topshop.
When I Google for Malaysia’s high street online fashion boutique, the result was nil. However, there are many personal online boutique in Malaysia. Hundreds of them. (Thousand I bet if it includes the blogs that sell accessories like handbags and jeweleries). There are too many! I don’t know how to choose! Then I found Emmagem Shopping Directory, the place that shares links of online boutiques. It is the site for Malaysian fashionistas.
I have a very essential question. What are the factors that made us feel safer (and happier) doing online shopping? Hopefully, this blog post will help the buyers decide better, and the sellers sell more. Quid pro quo! Continue reading
Fashionista by Jimmy James
I think this youtuber had done a great job.
Movie that I’m addicted to
We believe in destiny because we met because of the destiny.
If you haven’t watch “Slumdog millionaire”, I highly recommend that movie for you. It was inspired by a novel (Q & A by Vikas Swarup), produced using low budget. The actors are using British accent (with some mixture of Indian accent as well) and they are not A-list actors and actresses, mind you. They are from slums and nobody. But the movie have become a phenomenon in any cinema worldwide. This movie is discussed widely, because of its’ religious issues, poverty, romanticism and all. This movie is worth to be watched many times and in case you want to buy the original DVD or Blue-ray disc. I give three thumbs up for this movie! Continue reading
Pumps vs stilettos
[Pending entry, after so long]
I only have one pair of stilettos. Just for the sake of trying my ability to walk in 4 inches heels shoes. I can’t go around that much. Tried it once in Mid Valley. I end up swapping with another shoe that I purposely brought along, in case my feet hurt. My instinct was right and I was saved by my Hush Puppies. *phew*
People wonder how can I walk in stilettos. The answer is, of course, in pain. There are times we don’t mind the pain for the sake of having sexy pair of legs. We should not be a slave anyway. The shoe manufacturers do not provide insurance in the shoe box (insurance for arthritis case, or backache). I like to wear them because, while walking, my solemate gives some exercise to the feet.
Pumps work better. Suitable for big calf and big ankles. Pumps are just as sexy as stilettos. That’s what I call investment.
Uh oh, another story. My CR kitten heels were worn out.
In the end, he told me. “Look at me. I am wearing the shows for 6 years and I’m healthy, satisfied and happy”
“Mind to tell me what kind of shoes you’re wearing?”
“Sneakers”
“Yah! But you’re a boy. You don’t have to wear heels”
“You still can wear sneakers. We both have legs”
I rest my case.
