A day to remember
.
I was so thrilled when I recieved the invitation 5 days before the event day. I couldn't stop smiling and dreaming about this moment of meeting the red sole shoe artist,I've always thought about him as a true artist.

Mr. Louboutin, Thank you for being here and giving kuwait a chance in your shoe signing events!
thats what my 1st sentence for him.. Then he said : No, Thank YOU for being here for me. thank you for Your time!





He is such an awesome man. you can only admire every bit of him. then he started chatting with me about me .. I already posted a pic in insta about this topic, will include it at the end of this post.
So sweet of you Mr.louboutin, I will learn French and when I meet you again we will have the same conversation In french ;)

following is the photos from the event, and my shoe signed. with ( SHY) as a discribtion of me. he said once I saw you I said to myself this lady is shy! LOL. smart mr.louboutin! no wonder his shoe brand is so unique. ;)

Bourjois 123 Perfect Foundation shade #51



Why I like this foundation:

- Perfect cover.
- Lovely shade - yellowish to tan.
- Does heal minor blemish and prevent spot appearance.
- I recommend it for daily use. as causal make.

I was in Centerpoint - alawqaf branch - and I wanted to buy from this Foundation again. when the following happend:

Me: Can I have shade 51 from this Foundation please? it was out of stock 2 weeks back, do you have it now?

Sales Lady: Oh my dear ,, The Mother company has Stopped producing shade 51 ,, becuase shade 50 is exactly the same,  it doesn't make any sense - having 2 numbers for the same shade, U see my dear.. so U should buy shade 50 ! come try it ... you will love it .. !!!

Me : ------------
Me: No thank you .... when the company remake the shade again, i will buy it ... *sarcastic*

I hate sales ladies that tries to outsmart or should I say make fun of  customers.
we are not born yesterday ! Helloooooooooo !
if its out of stock ,,, say its out of stock,
don't try to talk me into buying - in such a stupid way! ..

Feng Shui your Life! Ruby experiment.

What is Feng Shui ?
receiving positive energy by following certain rules of heaven and earth .. or we can say .. earth main elements and colors. that would make you feel and be better in life. by attracting as much positive energy as you want.
for more info. about the definition click Here

who follow me on instagram, know that in the previous week, I had a small work shop about Feng Shui at work with 5 other girls. (my work friends). one of them ( the one who lead the workshop) was interested about this topic, she read books and attended lectures about it. she actually applied it to her office, home, and basically most of her life aspects. always saying that good stuff keep coming to her and it has nothing to do with the Feng Shui rules. cuz she did not want to be accused of not believing in god.

but we told her we are kinda intrested in doing this at least to work ... why?
we spen a lot of time at work .... 6-8 hours daily ... setting at our cubical s and staring at the PC screen ,, with all the negative energy coming out from it. many papers here and there .. I personally thought i had a tidy cubical ,,, I was SO WRONG .. LOL

anyways ,,, it's a whole world by itself ,, so in this post I'm just gonna mention what do you need to do in order to make a room/house/desk Feng Shui-ed righ.

we simply followed the picture below :


if you are applying the rules to a room .. black square is where ppl 1st enter the room. you should then arrange ur stuff and colors regarding the diagram above,
if its an office/desk.cubical .. red is what (who comes towords ur cubical) see first ,, say if you boss is coming to you,, from where he will come.. ur back? ur face? .. 1st rule is he shoulf face the red square 1st ,, then arrange the rest of squares after setting where the red should be.
easy way is to have this full diagram as a print ,, tilt and rotate to ur rule and then u will know where to put what ...

There is a lot of diagrams out there that can help you Feng Shui ur office ..
I used the one below .. also recommended by my friend.


But, instead of arranging the elements regarding where I set ( as the picture above) I rotate it so the red part is what my boss faces when she comes to me. 

tips about each element :

Career: Black the sign of strength ,, place the most expensive piece in the black corner, and preferably it is black colored too ( PC ) in our case. if your PC is not black.. you can skin in with a black pc/laptop skin.

Helpful people: grey-white-black : the sign of helpful people or travel. either put a white paper of the employees u call often along with their numbers. the paper should be white. or for a travel , place a picture of the country you wish to travel to, if you have a place in ur mind. or as a main rule. have a water element in this section to have a enjoyable trips. (small water fountains for example).

knowledge: any item that is  black - blue - green : the section where all positive energy for self-cultivation is attracted, it gives others an impression of you as a knowledgeable person who is great at work and know a lot.

Children / creativity : white - any item that is white and have a child thing in it .. lets say a picture of a swan, becuase .. swans are white and always known for carrying children , you can also use pictures of pacifiers, baby bibs, or toys. anything that resembles children will do.

Family : green item - any green item .. living plant or green container with perfume ( none flamed ). also a family picture with green frame will do. this attract the positive energy for family 

Health : yellow  - make the place for this colored element empty and wide. place a yellow mat or orange one to attract positive energy for health and well being. use the color intense you prefer to see.

Red: the Fame color .. use RED element in this space ,, use candles ,, very important and let them lite while your are at work working at ur desk. very helpful to use a picture of stairs as an illustration of fame acceding.

Wealth : purple or gold element .. that Looks worthy as swarovski or diamonds decorated container (does not have to be real diamonds) most important that it Looks worthy :)

Marrige : red - pink element also use a candle in this corner .. very important to let it lite while you are seated at ur office.


we enjoyed the workshop very much! and did applied the rules to my cubical ,,
important tips for me was :

get rid of all what you don't use on daily bases and keep them locked in drawers. 
do not use more than one calender ... i had 3 calenders on my desk ... kept one and removed the other 2.
keep the desk and stuff as lean as possible. 



maybe I'll show you how my cubical looks like now ,,, maybe :p

Ruby Likes: The Kiss Painting By Shurooq Amin.


There are so many meanings behind this painting that caputred my heart!
Loved it.

check her website Here

Update:

Here is How I see the painting, My own personal understanding.

It is holding a mixture between the tradition rules and regulations along with the want to be loved. A kiss on the hand always means respect. the way the man is seated is modern and sexy. including ghutra as a traditional part. the way the women is seated shows how she is passionate about her man. while dressed traditionally head to before her feet, cuz her feet is dressed with modern sexy heels. the way they are holding hands. Mixing their fingers is So sweet and shows a real Strong Connection. And they are sitting in a living room which  represent society or a place where you socialize with other people. That shows the Want to Open Up about those feelings and the want to live a Love Story in such a hard Society.

That could be completely different that what the owner of the painter had in her mind. But, this is the way I personally see it.

Happy Mothers' Day

Mother's day







Arab World

Mother's Day in most Arab countries is celebrated on 21 March. It was introduced in Egypt by journalist Mustafa Amin[20] in his book (Smiling America) 1943.

The idea was overlooked at the time, but when Amin heard the story of a widowed mother who devoted her whole life to raise her son until he became a doctor, got married and left without showing her any gratitude, Amin became motivated to promote for "Mother's Day".

The idea was first ridiculed by president Gamal Abdel Nasser but he eventually accepted it and Mother's Day was first celebrated on 21 March 1956. The practice has since been copied by the other Arab countries.

When Mustafa Amin was arrested and imprisoned, there were attempts to change the name of the holiday from "Mother's Day" to "Family Day" as the government wished to prevent the occasion from reminding people of its founder.

These attempts were unsuccessful and celebrations continued to be held on that day; classic songs celebrating mothers remain famous to this day.
