My Secret Eid Fling

As much as I love posting pictures of myself dressing up, featuring all the lovely clothes I got at the convenience of online shopping, I actually do not really dress up when I head to work these days.  My daily choices mainly consist of easy-to-reach clothes and those that do not need to be ironed (although most of the time I end up ironing everything I choose to wear last minute in the morning, rushing all over the house, gulping down my hot chocolate and dashing out of the door in order to be at work by the time I am supposed to). Plus, I am all over my work place, walking, rushing, trying to remember things I need to do and get them done.

I like to think that some others out there feel what I feel. Every single morning, I dread waking up and dragging myself out of bed. What can I say, I love to sleep and I love my bed; Caleb (name of my bed). I salute my friends and others who wake up way earlier than they are supposed to, to go get dressed and look like a fab before heading off to drop off their kids and come to work.

So here is my dirty little secret. Besides the weekend when I have weddings to attend to, or sometimes when there is plans to meet my friends for late lunch, dinner or relax,  Eid is usually THAT time of the year where I show more love for the traditional outfits or Eid-acceptable outfits, those long skirts and the long dresses. I just cannot get enough of these pretty outfits, mix-and-match them up anyway possible. This is where I feel like I am cheating on my usual work attire, but I cannot help myself. They are just so pretty.










I have a separate wardrobe full of these fling clothes, away from my daily casuals which I usually open up every morning. These clothes will just be hung there and wait until the right time comes around for me to dive into them and see the sun. This is when I will feel a little more sophisticated, hahahhahaha (as if!!!).  

Since we are in the month of Eid, I would like to ask for forgiveness for all my shortcomings and wrong doings, be it intentional or unintentionally, known or unknown. I am human, and I am very flawed. I hope everyone of you will find it in your heart to forgive me, in shaa Allah. 

Have a blessed Eid everyone.
