Love Zahra + Kendra Scott

Today I am teaming up with my favorite bloggers again for a summer style series, where each week we will feature a brand we all love. We call it Blogger Nation because we all live in different cities across the country, and we like to share how each of us would style something, taking in to consideration things like local street style culture and weather conditions which can vary significantly. It is fun to see how different or how similar we interpret how to style it. So be sure to stop by every Monday for a new feature!

This week I am so excited to work with Kendra Scott to showcase the Mystic Bazaar jewelry collection which is set to launch on July 15th! The collection was inspired by Kendra’s travels to Dubai, with its rich opulent culture and the beautiful natural landscape like the soft rolling sands. Check out the entire collection in the catalogue here.

I decided to style two different pieces of jewelry in my favorite summer go-to outfits. When it is hot, you will almost always catch me wearing either a white maxi dress or white jeans and a tank. If I want to dress it up I will throw on a pair of heels, but I can also be dressed up comfortable in some jeweled flats. Also, apparently I am now a hat person. For years I thought I couldn’t do hats, and now I have a hard time not buying new ones to add to my collection. I especially love floppy fedora style hats because they keep so well. I have ruined one too many Panama hats by accidentally crushing it. Side note: how do people manage to keep their hats from getting crushed when traveling? Are they holding it the whole time? I usually have a couple of suitcases, a purse, a baby, and a phone in my hands so I can’t be holding any hats. If you know how, please enlighten me.

 As always thanks for visiting! xx

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 ❤️

Cozy for a coffee date ☕️
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!
