From Zahra

LoveZahra + Lendperk Giveaway (Closed)

Today I am so excited to share a secret with you that I recently discovered. Lendperk is a company that rents dresses from stores like J.Crew, Anthropologie, Asos, and many more! They are similar to a Rent the Runway, but with less of the really high end designer dresses. When Lendperk contacted me to do a review, I was beyond excited and I asked them if they would be willing to giveaway a free rental to one of my dear readers – and they agreed! Scroll down for my review of the service, and your chance to win!

I picked this fabulous BCBG dress from Lendperk and ordered it on a Friday night. It arrived via Priority Mail within two days, and was perfectly pressed and ready to wear, which is huge for someone like me who abhors ironing. What I really love about Lendperk is that you get to keep the dress for up to a month! I am definitely wearing this look for Valentines day, and I may even wear it for a party I’m throwing at my house.

Overall I think this is a great idea, and I think so many of us can take advantage of it. How many times have you spent a couple hundred or even a few hundred dollars on a dress that sits in the back of your closet? It only costs $34/month to rent two dresses, and $49/month to have unlimited rentals! Remember, you get to keep it for up to a month.

The only thing I questioned was the selection, but when I asked about it, they told me they are constantly adding to the inventory so there will always be new dresses to choose from.

 My verdict- I’d definitely do this again!

Last week we took a quick trip to escape the snow for some sunshine in Key Largo, Florida☀️ We spent every moment possible outside, Tom and Adam got their Scuba Diver PADI certification (yay!) while Sophia and I spent our days either swimming or drawing marine life and landscapes. This was my first trip after my sister passed last November, and even though I look so happy here, there were so many moments I felt the grief and sadness, as if it happened just yesterday. I am still figuring out how I want to show up in this space, as I have changed so much as a person since the loss. I just don’t feel called to post some of the things I shared before. Maybe that will change someday, or maybe it will just naturally evolve into something new. I think I will take this year to just process it all. (Even the idea of taking an entire year to think through something is a huge shift for my usually hyperactive type A personality) My focus at the moment is just living in the moment with my family and friends, spending time doing things that make me happy and healthy. I hope to share some of that journey here with you ~ thanks for following along ❤️
I had planned to shoot this outfit in collaboration with @lenacoutureofficial right before my dear sister passed away. Saba, the designer, was more than understanding if I didn’t want to anymore - but after thinking on it for a while I decided I wanted to - in my sister’s honor 💗 She was always my biggest hype woman. When i would feel like I’m not good enough or that I should quit (which was often) she would tell me I was unique and great and to keep it up. When I think of my sister, beauty and love is all that she embodied in her being. She expressed that on the outside also - as she loved to wear everything glam, bright & colorful, and full of bling. Hair done, nails done, everything did - that was Nusrat. For this shoot I took the time to get glam after a long hiatus - and makeup and hair took so long because I think I forgot how to do it, but afterwards I was surprised how I felt transformed. When I wore this gorgeous outfit that I know was designed with such love and incredible attention to detail by @lenacoutureofficial, I felt all of that beauty - like a walking piece of art, and very much at peace. Thank you so much to @divmophoto for capturing the feeling so well 💕
Ski weekend with my favorites ❄️❄️ So proud of Sophia for skiing on her own for the first time!
There are some trees with seeds that only grow after a fire. Their seeds are completely sealed with a resin that have to be physically melted off by a great fire in order to propagate. So to do we as humans, gain wisdom only after great pain and suffering.*
A month ago (and one day) I lost my sister and best friend to cancer. I am still completely gutted and broken. But, I’m also so so grateful to have had felt the love that now brings me so much heartbreak. ❤️ I am so inspired by her - and I will forever live my life to honor her memory. Miss you sis ❤️

French. Toast. Egg. Bake. Save this recipe for a weekend or holiday brunch - it’s SO good and fool-proof! I’m not even a sweet person and I love it. The pecans are a non-negotiable IMO - I get honey bourbon vanilla pecans for this and it is just heavenly. Enjoy!
