When was the last time I thanked you guys? I bet it was a long time ago already. Well, I am gonna take this opportunity to thank you all for the love and visits you give to my blog despite my lacking of good topics to post. This blog has been one of the reasons why I have money, why I have friends, and why I have been growing more and better each day.
The moment I started blogging, I have never thought of joining any other sites other than my personal one. However, as the world revolves into a more complicated jungle, I have joined Youtube, Twitter, Lookbook, and many other sites. As I enter to the different faces of the world wide web, I began to realize that I can grow more as a better person.
Few months ago, I’ve reached more than 2000 subscribers. I have never expected such. Actually, I am now battling to gain 3000 by the end of this year. I hope you all would help me.
It was like an impossible dream that soared to reality. I had one of my videos reach more than 7000 views as well (click to watch). I was the #16 All-Time Most Subscribed Guru at Youtube (bragging aside). All of these will not happen if not for my readers, friends, and fellow bloggers. Indeed, you guys are amazing.
Through blogging, I was able to get to talk to many people, famous or not. I also was able to gain a lot of friends from all over the world. That, alone, is the greatest gift one could ever receive.
At Lookbook, I was also able to gain more than 80 fans which is a great thing already. I have the most shallow happiness. Just one fan means a lot to me already.
My Facebook Fanpage also reached more than 300 likes. Though 1/5 of the likes were from my friends, the 4/5 was from people who clicked the like button without seeing me advertise it. And it meant a lot, a looooooooooooooooooot!
Other than my readers, I also want to thank the advertisers who have been keeping my blog alive. Without them, this blog will turn out nothing. I will never be able to pay my monthly hosting bill without them. They also keep me blushing whenever they admired my posts and give me good remarks.
I also want to say thank you to all of the people who corrects me when I am wrong, and who dislikes my videos for me to know that I need to be better.
Thank you all so much. I hope we can all be good friends. Feel free to reach me at: http://www.formspring.me/pinkcraze. I answer every query or message I get. <3

Everyday, the fashion trend is changing. No one can really say that one style will never be a fashion trend. Like how the laces reached up Philippine shores. It came to the Philippines like a typhoon. In a nick of time, most of the boutiques are already selling lacey clothes.
The beginning of fashion trends usually comes from the Hollywood celebrities. What are mostly worn in Hollywood will turn out to be bestsellers in the boutiques the other day.
Lace has always been paired with classical style. The intricate carvings of the fabric bring out the class that it is made from careful weaving of threads.
Though laces have been present in the industry for a while, it is just recently that it came back to limelight with various celebrities strutting their lacy dresses and gowns in front of the cameras.
One of my most favorite lace creations is from Valentino which was worn by Kristen Stewart in the photo above. The black lace matches beautifully the goldy satin underneath it.
One of the celebrities who love to wear classical lacy dresses is no other than pop star Taylor Swift. While she rocks the laces, they also give her the look she is pulling through.
Laces have reached the Philippine shores earlier this year, but it has come back again to the limelight. Many of the local celebrities are digging laces again.
PS: You may have noticed TFF in my post title. It means “The Fashion Forward.” It is the latest addition to this blog. Every week, I will be featuring one of the many fashion styles. So, watch out for it every Saturday.

Tagged cube as in 3x. I was tagged by the three of the most beautiful bloggers, Angela, Faith and Rhea.
Rules:
1. You must post these rules.
2. Each person must post 11 things about themselves on their blog.
3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer.
4. You have to choose 11 people to tag and link them on the post.
5. Go to their page and tell them you have linked him or her.
6. No tag backs.
7. No stuff in the tagging section about ‘you are tagged if you are reading this.’ You legitimately have to tag 11 people.
Let us start with Angela’s tag.
My answers:
- My name has been changed twice when I was still a baby. So, this must be the one destined to be my name. I won’t change it even though people always ask me of its meaning, origin, etc.
- I really don’t know how to react to circumstances like that. I am quite conservative and soft-spoken. I doubt if I have the courage to tell him. I might just divert my attention to others.
- Yes. As to bloggers from the Philippines, I am the only one who is a Muslim and blogs about fashion, makeup and lifestyle.
- Money because it is crucial. Phone to reach my loved ones and tell them I am okay. Papers specifically my birth certificate and school papers. Clothes so that I stay fashionable. Food, to prevent hunger.
- As of the moment, I have one of my braces’ brackets in my wallet. haha. I haven’t gone to the dentist yet.
- I am either blogging or sleeping by that time.
- I can be both. When I love something, I would go for it despite the risk. However, I also take into consideration other things.
- Direct advertisers for my blog. Higher grades at school. Healthier mother.
- I aspire to touch others’ lives through my blog. I want to have people who has similar side as me.
- You know where. We are like sisterhood. hahaha. Clothes, makeup, shoes, bags.
- She is beautiful, definitely. She loves tweeting more than I do. She always keep her friends updated which I always fail at doing. Of course, she is awesome. Otherwise, we would not be friends. trololol.
My Answers:
- Twice, after I wake up and before I sleep. I see to it that I have minimal chemical intake because too much is harsh on the skin.
- Nothing. I use Nivea creme soap in creme soft (blue).
- Olay Natural White. <3
- Anything goes. But I don’t really use foundation. I am more attuned to using moisturizer + baby powder.
- They’re okay. I mean, if you want more volume, they’ll do great. As for me, I prefer just putting on mascara coz I don’t have lash issues. <3
- Nude and dark brown to complement skin tone. They look so natural. <3
- Both and depends on the time frame. If I have a lot of time, I’d go for liquid eyeliner, otherwise, I’d use eye pencil.
- I really think that Lights wear good makeup. And Kim Kardashian too. I also love Bollywood makeups because they focus so much on the eyes.
- Makeup is to enhance beauty. Everyone is beautiful with their naked faces. Of course, if you have the talent of putting on makeup, why not make the most out of it? Not everyone can do it anyway. That’s a talent, you know.
- Both and depends on the occasion. As for daily endeavors at school, I really prefer flats because I have so much errands to do.
- VS Amber Romance <3
My Answers:
- Woah. That’s too long ago to remember. I guess, I used to listen to boybands and Britney Spears back then. Yeah. I guess so.
- It was a long battle actually. I was a chatter at TV (yeah, ridiculous!) before I was a blogger. I’ve used this domain name as a chat nickname. Basically, that’s where everything started.

- I am an inggitera kind of person. When I saw many Muslims blogging, I become so attached to this industry.
- People who asks from others every detail of the story. Like, who are they? NBI? CIA?
- Okay. No more, no less.
- A lot. Basically, no words can really express the things I am looking forward to.
- Uhm. there is no Christmas in Islam. So, nothing.
- I am seeing a successful careerwoman, mother, partner, and daughter. InshaAllah.
