''WHITE'' Blooms Again!!




It is an understatement to say that summers in Pakistan are stretched over a very long duration , therefore ,unforgettable. Winters, for that reason , are most awaited .

With chill just round the corner , here comes a  buzz on winter arrays and hues .

The  monochromatic one in crisp white ensemble works well on me most of the time. Needless to say ,white is definitely my thing this season and you shall add it to your closets too .

Although considered monotonous ,however in all- dull dead winters ,this hue will add a breath of fresh air to your closet .

Switching over from a dozens of colorful palettes worn during summers to a simple white in winters is a heavy task though. 


Here are a few tips for carrying out white in a classy way this winter;



Trouser Lovin'


Well stitched and artfully placed cuts on a pair of white trousers would do wonders to your entire look this season. you may top it off with a warm or bold hued  shirt.


Fur Glam



Fur had always been an all time favorite high street fashion statement.white fur jacket /coat shall add a dose of glam  to a punchy hued dress by  brightening it up. You may also wear a nice white shawl or a stole to add an oomph to the ensemble.



All that glitters


Jazz up your white hued look by adding a dose of shimmer through colorful paillettes like an embellished top.




All In One



A monochromatic white ensemble like separates or a jumpsuit shall ensure a put together yet unfussy look. Add the vigor by topping it off with a velvet coat in a bold palette.



Tints And Shades




Add some punch to a light hued dress with colorful accessories.A bold pair of stiletto or strap on high heels would add an oomph.

Glam Street Islamabad








Present times are such that everybody is exposed to some kind of stresses and pressures ,left unaddressed by most of the people, the least that could be done is a psychic rest to your mind and body by visiting a spa/salon and get yourself pampered for a bit!! I did the same until I received an invitation from The Glam Street.

Sana khan ,the Owner of  Glam Street Salon and Spa ,is an aspiring beautician,with an unparalleled vision and great potential to uphold an exceptional status within the market. Not to forget of the pleasant lady at the counter ,the incharge of the salon , who greeted everybody with her contagious smile and absolute hospitality.
Located in the urban boulevard of E-11 , the salon has  an absolute contemporary yet  artisan ambiance. Bricked wallpaper all over the place gave an impression of  a to date  modish yet cozy vicinity. A tasteful collection of paintings hung on the walls was like a cherry on the cake. 

Now I would love to caste some light on the services they provide ranging from hair cuts ,dyes to massages, manicure ,pedicure , waxing ,facials and all beauty services. I must say the Glam glow facial has to be a feather in their cap because no salon in Islamabad offers it so far.

 I got an Essie manicure and a soothing head massage done at the salon  which was a wonderful experience. They initiated the service from filing nails to scrubbing , massaging and finally applying nail coats , the entire process got me drape my limbs over a hassock and made me enjoy my hot cup of coffee.
Blogger's Event at Glam Street

The staff was very friendly , experienced yet efficient. Owner along with her incharge made sure everybody was treated well and had satisfactory treatments done at her salon.The aura of femininity and the spark of positive energy I felt all over the place gave an evident impression of a well-coordinated teamwork.









So ladies just take some time out of your super frenzy routine and head your way towards the Glam Street salon to pet yourselves!!!!!!!!!!
