Hi,

My name is Abeer and I’m a fashion blogger from Rochester NY. Welcome to my website.

My backstory
I’m originally from Iraq, but after the 2003 war, my family and I had to leave the country. We moved around then came to the United States in 2007. I couldn’t go to school right away because I didn't speak English, so I took a year to learn the language. During that time I worked at Kohl’s, which was really great for me. The clearance section was my favorite shopping spot :)

A few months later I got married to my best friend and the love of my life, Ali. My husband and I met in the weirdest and cutest way you could imagine :)

The following year I went to college. These were really tough years, especially after having our baby boy Elias. Somehow I managed to graduate in 2013 from Rochester Institute of Technology with a bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, and then worked as a software engineer.

You might be wondering how I ended up becoming a fashion blogger...
I always loved fashion! I used to wear my older sister high heels and play dress up since I was 3 years old. I drew fashion sketches when I was 13, and designed pieces for others and myself.

I always wanted to do something in fashion, but, growing up in a conservative society, that wasn’t really an option.

Several years ago my husband suggested that I start a fashion blog since I dress up daily and like to take photos. The idea that I could write and share with everyone what I’m truly passionate about got me so excited.

One day I have noticed that when I take care of myself and look good it actually makes me feel good. I did more research about it and found out that our appearance on the outside affects how we feel on the inside.

So I decided to treat every day as a special one and not leave my house unless I’m confident in my look. After that, I started taking care of my skin, body, and health on daily basis. Guys, I’m a big believer in self-care and can’t tell you how much happier I became ever since.

Blogging
Blogging was one of the best decisions I ever made. I not only get to do what I enjoy every day, but also meet amazing people along the way. You guys have no idea how happy I feel when I read your comments and messages. I feel truly grateful and honored when you tell me that you enjoyed my posts and the content was helpful.

I’m so thankful for each one of you and for this opportunity, and I promise you that I will make sure that my content will always be informative and helpful.

Giving back
I want to thank you guys and show my gratitude by offering my help answering any beauty or fashion questions you might have. For example, If you have a special event and need help picking a dress, just email me and I’ll be more than happy to help you.

Thank you very much,
Abeer <3
