Lots of Love & Love you guys to the Max! :-*
from your one & only lovely manja's daughter,
Delila  

and...Happy Birthday to My Little Primadonna too!

Happy Birthday Coco! 
Hooray! She’s turning 2 this month. Love this little Primadonna Cat like crazy, the very first and only cat that I ever loved. Thank you for always putting smiles on my face. 

5 Things I learned from having a cat

From Coco...I learn that I need to cherish & rejoice every moment of my life although it’s just a simple ordinary situation. For a cat every morning is Christmas morning. Every walk is the best walk. Every meal is the best meal.

From Coco...I learn to listen. Make the time to lend an ear to those you love or those who want to transform their lives. But don’t try to fix their problems, and don’t take their problems personally, either. But just listen.

From Coco...I learn to trust my instincts. Cat doesn’t care about words. They recognize the interaction of body language and energy.

From Coco...I learn to live in the moment. Cats live in the moment. They don’t regret the past or worry about the future. They focus to appreciate and focus on what’s happening in here and now.

From Coco... I learn to show my love to others. Coco always happily jumps at me, lick me, wait for me & look at me like I carry the key of Universal Happiness every time she sees me, even if I gone for just few hours. Doesn’t that make me happy? 

Few Photos of Coco in action.
 Enjoy!

Too Short? Wear High Heels & Practice Walking

To me being grown up is dressing up in high heels. I just love to wear high heels. It’s a pleasure with pain. Whenever I wear them, I have a great spirit, I speak fluently & it put a curve on my lips.

A Touch of Art, A Touch of Fashion...

P1060479
Fashion into art or should I put in the other way around.  I am a big believer in creating a sort of art that will reflect me. When I put myself in a creation it means colourful, classic, natural, pure, simple & sweet. To me art is a source to uplift my soul while fashion unleashes my personality.

I discover art way before I explore my personal style. I spent teaching myself how to draw rather than care what to wear. While girls my age were getting busy exploring their fashion sense, I was busy painting page after page. The hours of my days spend in school where education is a must, excel in every exam paper that I attempted & taught myself to draw during my free time.  It’s only later in my college year, I start to little bit care more about fashion. That time I shifted my interest into outfit & I created my sense of style. After years of exploring, discovering & searching I found signature of me in everything that I do. Now I could say that I am the brand & I am the product of my experience. The experiences of both avenue were so much fun – So exciting!

Inspiration behind Dude the Lady Jacket

Inspiring by the famous quote 'Don’t judge a book by its cover' I have created 
Dude the Lady jacket, Delila Petite Collection..  

A person my look anything from the outside but we never know what is truly inside that person until we’re close to them. It may take few days or months but it may surprise you in positives or negatives way.. The link between impression & what’s going on inside a person became clearer once you know them. 

To me, you need to walk a thousand miles on someone else’s shoes & take times to really know them before you judge them. I’ll always believe that people deserve to define themselves even if they come off as a bad impression first. I always try my best to understand them & give them chances.  I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. There always reasons why some of them behave like the way they behave. But the most important is always improving to become a better person.

Growing up making me believe....

that every person that I know has something to teach me. It’s my job to find out what that something is & learn from them.  

Some are here to test & teach me. 
Others will use & some would bring out the best in me.
There are also people that cause me pain and heartache but I must learn to move on

So I let go of the people who can’t treat me right & hold on to those who love me back & appreciate me. I do believe that I need to respect myself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves me, grows me, or makes me happy.

But I also believe that opening to new people can be nothing but rewarding.

.....And sharing a laugh with a stranger is a lovely & unexpectedly special moment. Something to be thankful for.

Oh YES!


From Ira Glass . . .
“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners — and I really wish someone had told this to me . . . is that all of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, and it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase. They quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn't have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know it’s normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You've just gotta fight your way through.”
Agreed!

10, 000 Hits!!!



I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the number of 10, 082 hits on Delila Designs Blog today!

Wow...amazing feeling! God knows how much I’m grateful for this. Thank you so much my reader for sticking along, it means a world to me. Even the simple act as clicking and visiting the posts mean so much to me.  

 Although I could say that I’m new in blogging world but I been blogging consistently since October last year.  Every time when I getting a blog post up, it never fail to make me feel happy & satisfied. When I started blogging, I intended to write about fashion & my creation but now I ended up written about my life, my experience from cooking to travelling & lots more. It become a creative outlet & source of joy that made me excited to get out of the bed each day, connect with others about things that I  love and somehow I could feel that it help to inspire people too.  Blogging is something that everyone could do.  It’s really simple but it is time consuming. Every blog post it created with love, passion & time.  I want to tell you that there was no short cut. Eventually when time flies, by blogging it helped me to find my purpose. It’s like I found my own voice that pushed me to go out & just do it.  My own voice to be original me, wonderful me & it hold me to always come out with the best in whatever I do.  

I wish the rest of the world knew about being a blogger. I am just a real girl like others. I showcase a lot of the good & beautiful things in my life through blogging. The reality is my lives aren’t perfect. I do have issues, challenges, adventurous & a lazy day like everyone else. However since I make my blog a happy place, I tend to show the world just all the beautiful view of my life.  It’s a place where I share what I see, what make me stop & stare, what keep me inspired & what I find interesting.

I was just beyond humble & so happy when people visited & read my blog.
 Thank you guys!

I’m looking forward to get to know you all in the future.

Channeling Kate Middleton Style In Malaysia ~~Part 3

This is my most favourite dress, completely breathtaking. 
When I saw it,
 I literally keep whispering to myself...’Ohhhh  goddd... put this dress on me...pls pls..pls’

 I love everything about this dress from the embroidery that almost look like Wedgwood blue lining, the flare skirts & the quarter sleeves. A very simple & sweet look. Perfect!

Channeling Kate Middleton Style in Malaysia ~~Part 2


Catherine Duchess of Cambridge wore Alexander McQueen Gown during official dinner hosted by Malaysia Head of State Sultan Abdul Halim at Istana Negara. Not only do the gown wow!. More than anything though, I was struck by the gold embroidery on the gown.  The glittering gold embroidery actually was done in the shape of a hibiscus the official flower of Malaysia. It's true when they said,  it's the little details that are vital.

Channeling Kate Middleton Style in Malaysia ~~Part 1

Kate & William was in Malaysian last month. 
So It’s time to check out what did Catherine Duchess of Cambridge wore during her visit to Malaysia truly Asia! 

With a mixture delight & excitement, I was looking forward for her outfit during her visit here. All her outfit was beautiful choose & made. I'm speechless... 

In line with religious & protocol she covers her hair before entering mosque in center of Kuala Lumpur.Honestly I kinda like this look. Do you think it's socially acceptable if I wear dress & scarf together in real life?
