Currently Zonah’s was spotted in exhibitions and festivals displaying their new and exquisite clothing, footwear and bags range.

Love in a Basket - Rings Collection


Once in a while we all want something trendy and vibrant, something that is affordable but has the highest demand in the market. Crafts – and to be more precise handmade crafts have left a mark to be one of the leading businesses in the world.
Sohaib Safwan, this week was kind enough to let us review some of the exquisite jewelry pieces that the online store has to offer. It has been over 10 months that this line is considered a part of ‘Love in a Basket'.  Overall in the collection my favorites were the big and bold rings. The use of vibrant dyes, beads and stones and fabric automatically makes them a must have in every ring collection!
The assortment includes rings made from ‘Italian Dough’ into different patterns and textures and then the sides are beaded off with pearls to seal in the whole design. 'Satin' rings are twisted into floral shapes and then a bling of rhinestone or a pearl is added for elegance in the overall item. A few pieces are made with the in vogue ‘Pom Pom Lace’ which is twisted and knotted to the edge. The line also includes materials like pipe cleaners and bases painted and punched with stones to provide a flashy touch to the ring. Furthermore, the selection stores beaded rings that have alternate layers of stones to it.

For clients and customers, most of the designs are customizable so that you can pick out your favorites and dress the colors up as you like!

Peach by Sarah Kasbati



A gathering always comes to an end when you have the perfect friends and family around that fill the air with warm hugs, echoing laughs and soft smiles. To make this experience more delightful 'PEACH' has been creating innovative ideas and exquisite décor to make every party more entertaining and successful.
The credit is mostly served to the event manager for making it flow so smooth. From the decoration part to winding the event so perfectly it truly is remarkable. I always wondered how the routine of such a hectic job can be done with so much pressure to meet the clients’ demands by designing the schemes, choosing the favors and giveaways’, ordering the seating arrangements and, the list just keeps on going. So this week we had Sarah Kabsati, founder and owner of peach to answer our questions.
Starting from her education, she was a member of the Association of Chattered Certified Accountant and later on she started gaining her experience as a Visibility Manager for Walls Ice-cream in Unilever LTD.

Then in 2008 after the wedding bells rang she shifted to the capital. Being an active and independent lady throughout her life and getting settled in Riyadh was never an easy choice but she played her cards and made the best of her spare time by deciding to organize events and giving out wrapping services.
It has been 20 months since 'Peach' has been satisfying their customers by offering quality services to them. Since 2010 Sarah Kasbati under 'Peach’s' name has managed 10 events which include birthday party, baby showers etc. She told us that she plans to take a further step by organizing wedding ceremonies and graduation parties in her work.

Sarah also told us that every event has a different theme which is decided with the consent of the client and then later on the execution phase is carried out which entails buying the scrap and preparing the material for the coming day.

The services and packages vary. It mostly, depends on the guests invited, the venue decided and every single detail. 'Peach' compromises the whole planning which includes the seating arrangements, balloon decorations, games and clowns, goody bags, chocolate counters, candy floss and much more. “Peach is responsible for advising on the theme and arranging decoration. In the case of birthday parties the arrangement of balloons, games, clowns and magic shows are outsourced to freelance services providers or depending on the size and the availability such arrangements are also outsourced to Fun Time and Lolly Pop, specialized birthday party shops  in Riyadh.”


The catering services are not included in any package. For that a third party has to get involved.
If you need to organize a well-managed event or get the most adorable gift wraps then 'Peach' is the perfect place where you will get it all done!

Love in a Basket


Not everyone is born with talent. For some, it takes years to practice, and for others it’s more of a challenge. Sohaib Safwan, currently a BBA student at Iqra University was never an ace in nail art. For once he did a polka dot design on his sister’s nail and the design went so rad that instead of leaving it for sure, he gave this a new start and took this so far that now he stands as a proud trainer for OPI Pakistan.
The online store which is taken care by Sohaib and his mother has already scored 14k fans in a year. The shop offers an assortment rings, bangles, necklaces, earrings, brooches, clutches, handbags, hairbands and of course nail art, also available in 3D.  

‘Love in a Basket’ turned one on the 21st of June, the initial idea was to start an online shop where he could promote and sell his designs but then later changed the impression that this would be a place where trendy items for girls will be show-cased. With the styles changing and the colors being added in the fashion, Sohaib focuses on updating the designs and constantly attaching the vivid and vibrant pigments with the current flow.

The prices of the items in ‘Love in a basket’ are extremely affordable especially when we talk about hand-made crafts. Sohaib said that he decides the range in which he can get the profit out and also keep the prices affordable for the customers.

‘Love in a Basket’ as always, will be launching their new and exquisite lines for their customers. Sohaib unveiled that he will be introducing formal clutches by the end of this month as their new range.
Seeing him being the first OPI educator ever in Pakistan, we asked him the reaction when people come to know that you are working as a trainer he replied,"They used to give me funny looks and almost everyone used to ask me how I ended up in this field. People make judgments without even seeing your work, and when they see my work, they are amazed! "

 At the end we told Sohaib to give a brief reply of what he does for OPI "I am working for OPI as their educator for Pakistan, I give training and demo sessions to different saloons. These sessions mostly include a detailed demonstration of acrylic and gel nails, and OPI's different systems. Where ever in Pakistan they need to give training from the OPI systems, I am sent there for the demonstrations. Recently I was sent for an International Training by OPI in Dubai and I learned quite a lot of stuff."

Winding this up we congratulate 'Love in a Basket' for being blessed with such a response. We thank Sohaib Safwan for his time and co-operation and wish him the very best in future.

Eid Shopping Festival by 'Zakeez'


For the ladies in Riyadh the event was being promoted a month before. Flyers were distributed throughout the area. Banners and other arrangements were made to attract the attention of the commoners and the Desi community of Riyadh, KSA.

As seen on pages on Facebook this event was arranged by Javeria Zakeez, this week on the 21st of June, 2012. ‘Samyy Writes’ was appointed to cover the whole event.
The chosen venue was ‘Mezbaan Banquet Hall’ which was organized by arranging stall tables for the exhibitors. A total of 18 stalls were presented.
The event started in full swing at 4:30 pm and the customers started rushing in. The front venue had a reception table and the stage on the left. Entry ticket per person was 5 SR, and the total sum at the end was donated to a charity organization.

Over the stage, ‘Flavors’ was the first stall to greet the ones who were coming. Sadia Aleem was minding the food stall and presented sweet and savory items alike. Sadia recently has started a Facebook group and wants her social circle and creativity, to make the perfect desserts and the delicious recipes spread. Moving on to the extreme right Aqsa Asif from ‘Xtasy Productions’ had set up her photo-studio. Aqsa was clicking through the event and editing them up to a perfect rate and printing out the exquisite master pieces.
Sam Ovais was having her stall too on the stage and she was spotted designing Henna in the most beautiful ways. She was also seen Face-painting the kids who were there with the mothers, enjoying the event to the fullest.

With the front view of the Hall almost every other exhibitor was displaying their clothing lines.
Zakeez, The Whatnots Shop, M&H Fashions, Aliya Khalid, Noreen, Ronaques, BK collection, RS collection and many more displayed fancy, casual and party wear and designer lawns at the scene.
Food stalls were in abundance on the right rear side of the hall offering delicious desi meals to the ladies.
They were shared by Sidra and Amina Yasir. Their taste was absolutely delicious of every item that I tasted!

Riyadh’s most happening and trendy ‘The Whatnots Shop’ received an ultimate response from the fans out there. They were showcasing Nail Art, Crochet and Designer Lawn and for the first time their Jewelry line was unveiled in the exhibition.
Pakistani’s Designer Brand Zonah’s was also seen on the show. They were promoting their clutches, footwear and clothing lines for the ladies. Over their stall they also were giving out Rizwan Baig and Icon designer lawns at affordable prices.
A step further and ‘Rainbow Jewelers’ were asked about their experience as a first time stall holder. They have recently started their business in making hand-made traditional Jewelry. Her work was well- appreciated by many who joined the event.
At the wrap of the whole event Javeria Zakeez was over-whelmed by the response she got. She at the end thanked all the stall holders and exhibitors and, especially wanted to appreciate Atiya Zubair, 'Special thanks to my darling Atiya Zubair who worked as my right hand, and made things so easy for me!'

'Samyy Writes' wishes luck and regards to Javeria Zakeez for arranging the event. We hope that in the coming events you prosper more and get a better response each time.




AVON Reviews - Crack it Open

Cracking nail polishes are a huge hit and many of the enamel companies have launched their own designs in this one. Avon’s Mosaic effects in a new member in the polish collection. It works just like a regular cracking polish by simply applying it over the nail and leaving it till it automatically dries and cracks. Though there is whole new range of shades in this line. My preference is the black and white ones.

I usually wear the lighter ones with black and pair the darker tones with white to give it a contrast and make sure that the colors stay separate and recognizable. This simply polish creates a mosaic texture on your nails within 15 minutes!

So, If you are a fan of nail art but fail to express the creativity then this is the perfect top coat to make your nails trendy and in style.

AVON Reviews - My everyday Neutrals


This is my everyday collection (That is obvious, from the bottles). You can’t always wear striking colors so sometimes you have to soften the edges and take a trip with neutrals. No matter how much you love colors these basic creamy polishes should be there for every girl. Avon gives out a range and these three are my favorites for quite a time. 


1. Natural Flux: This Sheer pinkish shade looks peachy and neutral for every skin tone. The color gives a sense of elegance and simplicity. This is a perfect and effortless look if you are looking for something subtle.

2. Deluxe Chocolate: Although this is a dark color but its creamy and sophisticated. This perfect shimmery color sends a clue of gold and brown when applied on the nails. One is enough but if you want this enriching chocolate experience go for two coats and seal them with top coat.

3. Star: This sheer ivory shade is an ideal color for a flawless base. But, this can be applied without anything on the top. The color gives a creamy finish. With a total of two coats you can get the stars on your very nails!

AVON Reviews - Slide the right Reds


Over the years red and the shades are a huge success in the cosmetic world. Staring from luscious red lips to the Shining red manicures, this trend keeps on coming back at every turn. It never matters what the age group is as long as you’re a woman red is an essential in the closet and the dresser. So make sure to choose the perfect hues with Avon’s ‘Nailwear Pro’ collection. These are the preferred reds that I like.

1. Golden Wine: This gorgeous enamel is from the ‘Gold Nailwear Pro’. This is a blend of many shades, when applied on the nail. You can actually see the lights reflect and giving off Gold, Scarlet and Magenta. The glitter effect in the polish gives off a smooth coverage over the nails making the shine last up to three days of your manicure.

2. Cherry Jubilee: The name gives away the identity of what the color actually is! The true cherry color is perfect for a Bright day or a Glam night. One coat is enough to layer the perfect color over your nails.

3. Real Red: We all need that Vampire look once in a while. This true Red works the way when you pair it with a neutral look so that the color effortlessly gets spotted. The trend is recently in and at its peak. Models over the ramp are seen wearing the true bold colors with a flawless flushed look.

AVON Reviews - Play with Purples


Purples are passionate, strong and one of the bold colors that are not easily used as an everyday colors, but they are the ideal choices to get a change in the routine. Avon over the years and made the perfect polishes and purples from this cosmetic company is a must have!

1. Luxe Lavender: Ever wanted to give your life a soft touch? This sober pigment looks refreshing on the nails especially in springs and summers. At the most two quotes are enough as the color is pale and light so it automatically builds it up. I absolutely adore this color and sometimes dot Fuchsia pink over it to pop the colors out.

2. Decadence: Wait for the autumns and winters to get this vivid and eye-catching paint on your nails. But this color is worth the wait! The glittery purple stays the same till the third day of your manicure. The first coat is enough with a top coat to give out the perfect results and in making sure that the color doesn’t chip off.

AVON Reviews - Color Trends sophisticated coats


Of all the pinks and purples and the crazy neon trends, the neutral trends never look old – fashioned. Despite the fact that light colors don’t attract much attention but when we talk about nail colors dull and light are considered elegant and classy. Avon has mixed the lightest shades and added the perfect sheer shimmer to the product.


1. Minimalistic Peach: This sheer peachy pink shade gives out the perfect result when applied 3 coats and concealed with a top coat to protect the layers and make sure that the shines remains throughout the day.

2. Bliss: This is a fabulous purple shade with a silvery shimmer effect. The color is shows off perfectly with two coats. Perfect for short nails this year, this pale purple is the best to welcome the springs of 2012.

AVON Reviews - Spark it up!


A glittering nail color is a really important addition to your collections of lacquers. That is why I choose these two polishes to add a shine in the night. The colors are perfect for party wear especially when you pair it with a simple dress, to make sure you are not hyping the look a lot.

1. Glittering Purple: This nail color mixes the shades of purple and silver with chunks on gl
itter. Applying two coats with a base protector will bring the color and texture out. Sealing it off with a top coat will ensure that the glitter sticks to the surface and the nail gives of a perfect shine.

2. Glittering Pink: We all happen to have the situation when one product in just one color seems not enough! So I bought the same polish in a pink metallic shade to admire the awesomeness of the colors.

These two are a perfect choice for an out-going event, especially when you want your style to be simple and soft with a splash of nail sequins.

AVON Reviews - Blossom with Blues


One of the 2012 nail color is definitely blue. The lighter tones are a match in this summer and the darker tones are waiting for the autumns and winters. Of all the Blues ever launched, these two are my finest choices:

1. Classic Fit: This dark diva is perfect for the coming autumns and winters. Classic Fit is a dark royal blue shade which smoothly gives out the color with the first applied coat. The color gives out extra gloss when applied with Avon Clear polish. It has a beautiful shimmer shade that looks classy on long nails.

2. Vintage Blue: This is my favorite shade of blue. This subtle color gives out the perfect blue shade with maximum two coats applied. Vintage Blue is highly a wanted color this summer. It also belongs to the ‘Nailwear Pro’ collection. Vintage Blue is quite ideal for any nail length but when applied on short nails it looks fabulously sophisticated.

AVON Reviews - Pretty Pinks



My dresser is loaded with Nail Polishes, as it is the next big thing. Pinks are a must have for every wardrobe. So this is my pick on the AVON Pink shades.

1. Rose Quartz: This is a sheer pink color. You will need several coats to get the shade on the nail. The lacquer is Shimmery and Glittery. The color belongs to the ‘Nailwear Pro’ collection. By looking at the image you can definitely see that this is my favorite neutral hue that adds an elegant look to any outfit.

2. Coral Reef: A perfect summer shade. This bright shade is ideal for your everyday look. The first coats blooms the color out, and then later you can keep on adding depending on how dark you want it. Coral Reef belongs to the ‘Nailwear Pro +’ collection. This hue adds a pop of color to every garment in your closet.

3. Viva Pink: Calling this color fuchsia wouldn’t be wrong. This color simply glides on nails without requiring another coat. This too belongs to the ‘Nailwear Pro’ line.
Using this shade for color-blocking would be the wisest thing because of the darkness and richness of the pigment.

Estillo Hut


Sidra Majeed, Dress designer and founder of Estillo Hut was interviewed this week by ‘Samyy Writes’. Sidra instead of promoting other brands and copying the designs out, created her own lines, patched the colors up and sketched the patterns and textures in a brilliant way keeping the Pakistani fashion and trends in her creativities.
Sidra explained how Estillo Hut was such a boom and how her designs were encouraged by fans from Pakistan and abroad. ‘My family and I were going through a financial crunch, and I still had an year left to complete my studies, so I thought of designing my own clothing lines … and this is how it all started’.
Fashion Designing was never related to her field, ‘I opted for Fashion designing … It was my passion and I knew that I could light a spark in it.’ Furthermore she said that this business in solely online. She manages most of her orders through Facebook.
She clearly explains that after getting fame she cannot give credits to a single person. No one person can get the title of being the inspiration. One of the many reasons that Estillo was a huge hit is the fact that Sidra studied what and how people really want it, their demands and needs and what the market provides. Keeping all this in mind and being focused on what her customers desired she scored a lot!
Sidra further stated that the job may seem to be glamorous and glittering, and the perfect job for anyone, is actually quite tiring, especially when the trends change at every inch and the customers’ demands for the best. ‘I keep mixing the colors and patterns in my mind and focus on getting the perfect solution.’
Additionally the designer unleashed that bellbottoms and tights are in the catalogs, even for the bridals long shirts are being paired with Shararas to give the traditional plus classy look to the outfit. Sidra said that summery colors like blues, peaches and corals are being spotted on the ramp.


Samyy Writes wishes Estillo Hut the very best of luck for the near successful future.

Cloth - Embellishments


Abeera took another step by launching ‘Cloth Embellishments’ on the 9th June, 2012. The huge response from fans made Abeera start her own jewelry line with then again affordable prices.


The Collection was marvelous featuring long layered necklaces and weaving them with Chunks and Charms that had an Antique touch to them.
The bracelets had an overall perfection by transfusing large stones with Chain bracelets. Also, Cuffs with embedded Rhinestones and beads to give the whole Classical- Vintage Theme were seen and the bangles had their own allure by keeping their delicacy and the theme in mind.
The Rings casted their spell and the same day most of the pieces got ‘SOLD’!
Abeera kept the design simple and elegant by using large stones as the core of attention in Light ivory, Emerald greens, Blacks and White. The sides were mainly carved and the boundaries twisted or beaded to give the finishing look.

A surprise was, introducing the hair accessories. They mainly had gold and bronze bases with pearls or antiques studded over the top, perfect for a wedding!
The overall color palette was mixed with silvers and rust to make the collection wearable on any dress and make it flaunt perfectly. The focal point of the collection encircled around the beads that were layered and graced for an old-fashioned look.

The overall response has been more than positive for Abeera to start something more innovative and interesting than the one before. 

We hope that Cloth launches more exquisite patterns and items in the future. Till then we are anxiously waiting for ‘Summer Tide’ to show up and find out what Abeera has wrapped up for all her fans this summer.

Being a mother and creating this art of perfection was always a passion for her. Nida is self taught and molds her fondant in just the right way! 
She started making cakes since her son’s 2nd Birthday and quickly got hold of techniques and tricks. Since then it has been four years and now Nida is well-known across Riyadh in making the perfect cakes with her outstanding talent. 

Starting from Sponge bob cakes to Chanel and Sushi cupcakes Nida has made them all. Her popularity increased between not only the common fans but companies which started giving the orders on their events and anniversaries.
“Yes! I have made cakes for Hyundai, Nestlé, Sony, Arasco, Mobily active on event, for Swedish embassy,  Royal cakes,  Deutsche bank and many more"

Despite her hard work Nida has made the price range affordable and the quality superior taking 20 to 30 orders per month. 
When I asked Nida that behind cake decorating what stood as an inspiration which took her this far, she replied, “I was always inspired by Cake Boss- famous television show on food network.  I just want to reach that level one day!”

Cloth


“We believe that Fashion is a right not luxury.”


Having a Masters degree in Business Administration, Abeera Qureshi was interviewed this week by ‘Samyy Writes’, on the start of her spectacular clothing line in Islamabad titled ‘Cloth’. Comfort and Affordability are the highlights that define what the brand actually is.

Abeera revealed the story of how Cloth came into being and told us that way back in November, 2010 she exhibited 30 outfits, which were given a huge response, by fans. With people appreciating and orders filling up, Abeera in 2012, started Cloth, ‘All the love and response led me into taking this task seriously.’ she said.
On asking what matters most, in Comfort Style and Trend she replied, ‘I think it’s the “comfort” of wearing “Cloth”, and an inner satisfaction of not spending much and still being up to date with the current trends. I believe style is not what we provide; two different clients wearing the same outfit will have their own style of wearing it so style basically comes from within.’
Using freedom of colors and material from Khaadi and Nishat, Abeera
concentrates on making the final garment presentable yet affordable.

Cloth is also working on a fine range of Bags and Jewelry that is also promised to be affordable akin to her clothing lines, which will be styled for the modern and independent woman.  Recently ‘Cloth’ introduced its new face – Hareem Farooq, a talented model and actress.
We hope to see more fresh and trendy garments from ‘Cloth’ really soon! Till then if you are looking for whites and blue and a vibrant splash of colored garments this year, then make sure to check out their upcoming summer inspired range ‘Summer Tide’.
