Arabic jewelry my choice

Khaleejia said:
Couple of weeks ago my husband asked me to search through some gold stores for something I would like to have as my birthday gift. As I really wanted something special and cute I went to the local gold souk, visited some jewelry shops but did not find anything matching my taste nor did i feel special while trying them on. Then I decided to search online for some products and latest jewelry fashion in the Middle East. The market is very huge but there is one particular site I visited by chance and found very different and interesting. It iswww.goldcraft.com.sa, a jewelry manufacturing company from Saudi Arabia with the name Gold Craft شركة فن الذهب. I was also surprised to learn that they are delivering to any part of the world.
So my choice stops on this one as I see it over others for these 10 resasons:

First, I am so fascinated with their jewelry collection! This collection is exactly what i need.
Second, It is high quality jewelry and something new in the market
Third, Finely made masterpiece based on one of the best kind of the Arabian calligraphy. 
I am sure that Arabian calligraphy is one of the most attractive and beautiful thing in the world that is loved by people from different nations and countries and to have it as jewelry piece with anything written is a big pleasure. 

Fourth, All name jewelry is made to order and processed once the order is placed.! So, to have your name written in it is exactly what this company does. It would make you feel even more pleased, special and unique as this jewelry becomes very close to the wearer since it says his/her name on it. This makes the person special as the jewelry is designed for that person only. Additionally the person receives it from someone special to him or her. I love their ideas! 

Fifth,  I am sure it looks great when it’s worn with an abaya or any other outfit. I believe, it will finely decorate any clothes and any personal style. 

Sixth,  Finally there is a gift for MEN other than perfumes, pens, and watches...

Also there is one more interesting  thing why I chose this company's jewelry is:

Seventh,  this company history starts from 1952  when a master craftsman by the name of Abdul Basit Quraishi opened his small gold craft shop  and this has some meaning as one of the oldest Saudi tribe to which belongs  our Prophet , peace be upon Him,  is  Quraish. And this is kind of respect and small chance to feel closer to this famous place.

I really wish this company has branches around the Middle East and not only in KSA but good for us that: 

Eighth, they have web-site with all items list, prices and full order and delivery information worldwide as well. So no upset for the rest of the Middle East and the globe! 

Ninth, They are very fast to respond on the requests and very friendly giving much attention to what you need.


and finally ... 

Tenth, I hope that I’ll enjoy "My Precious Love” gift throughout my life.

Styles of khaleeji fringes

Khaleejia said: To have long shining and strong hair is old Gulf tradition for women.
since Girls are born  they having their oils and henna treatment .  One friend of mine has got a newborn baby girl and she is very worried for her daughter’s hair as it is very 7afeef( light and thin). I tried to make her worries down by explaining that hair will be changed as this is still infant hair. But she tends to  keep her  worries. And i understand her as this is mentality and society’s standards as It is very important to have strong and healthy hair.We started looking for the treatments and decided to use coconut oil treatment applying for the whole night during one month to make them thicker and heavier. The rest is by Allah‘s Will.
The other  side of hair problems is how to have long  hair and the same time nice haircut. Nowadays we all are looking at Hollywood celebs trying to repeat their styles,makeup and haircuts as well. Then we go to beauty salon and asking hairdresser give us a Hally Berry look without trimming the length. But there is one more thing that make you recognize gulf girl among others. It is fringes, something that sadly appearing out of sheylah of some guls but i’m not about it.  who forbid have it ?! nobody ! we just should care more about our religion and going outside cover hair properly . Anyway back to fringes- it is part of hair that got a lot of creativity and attention for the last years. It has to be very cute, glam and give a beautiful shades to the face.

   
and as additional i love Aryam’s new look by Joelle.  It’s so traditional and same time modern fresh look.

and here is her look before:
