The Muslimah Boutique (Review) +ootd


THE MUSLIMAH BOUTIQUE

There I was at my kitchen table eating my breakfast when the doorbell rang, and lo and behold on the other side of the door, this package was waiting for me:

Thanks to Yasmin from the Muslimah Boutique for sending out this beauty to me!!



Beautifully wrapped package which makes an ideal gift. Inside the package I found this Black Out Bronze Necklace with a large sunglasses Pendant designed and made by The Muslimah Boutique. 



She really hit it home with the glasses pendant given how much I love my geeks!! I love that there is a simple antique effect to it. It's great to wear almost any outfit. I personally love the idea of wearing it with a casual outfit, the necklace just pieces it all together.
I love the butterfly detail and intricate designs on the edges.


The necklace itself is not too big and not to small in size; the length of the chain measures at 96 cm- it's just right! 
For those of you who like showing off a bit of bling under your hijab; I totally recommend wearing long chains so its in sight. I wore the necklace with a light chiffon skirt, logo tee and trainers 


Absolutely love this look; it has a bit of a laid back tom-boy feel to it but adding it with light fabrics, such as this baby pink chiffon maxi skirt, also adds on a bit of a girly look too- so you get the best of both worlds. Who says pink and trainers don't mix? No one that's who!



Love the cropped denim jacket with the pink skirt and a black leather backpack!

Sorry must dash... <3

How awesome does the necklace look with this too cool for school tee though???

The Boyfriend Coat

THE BOYFRIEND



This season its all about the boyfriend coats and I found this baby in TOPSHOP ^
I absolutely fell in love with the colour and fit; not too tight and not loose enough to look like I'm wearing a potato sack... unless of course in your opinion you think it does look like that - to each their own. LOL

I personally love the boyfriend/oversized look, its so perfect for those grunge outfit occasions- you know the ones where you wanna look good but don't wanna try too hard. I love the fact that with this coat you CAN do that!!! you can literally dress head to toe in black and don this coat and it will completely transform your outfit because of the gorgeous colour!! <3

I have seen many boyfriend coats in almost all high street stores, so now would be the time to buy one- contrary to popular belief, boyfriend coats come in all shapes and sizes; some with wider shoulders and a slightly more fitted waist and so on and the material also differs, giving each boyfriend coat a distinctive look- so find the one which is perfect for you. The moment I tried this coat on I knew it was meant for me- imagine how Cinderella felt wearing her glass slippers, yup! that was me on this particular occasion. When you know you know, you know?


I paired my boyfriend coat with a monochrome outfit and berry hijab and boots- keeping colors to a minimum and letting the coat do the talking:




LOVE how the green pops and the berry/wine colour compliments the colour of the coat <3 <3



I wore a jersey maxi skirt so that I didn't look toooo oversized-- one of my rules; if you are wearing loose clothing on top make sure the bottoms are not too loose so u have some shape or other and vice versa :)
The leather black backpack was to this outfit what icing is to a cake, it just made it whole...


I LOVE THESE BOOTSSSSS!!!!


I stacked those rings and put on a casio watch for the ultimate grunge look!

OUTFIT 6
Flower earrings
I love this outfit, perfect for evening wear! 1920's glamour with the fur on one side!
Instead of wearing a necklace I pinned the earring to my turtle neck jumper, the same look can be achieved with a brooch- for a simple elegant look.







I wore my fur collar draped on one shoulder to achieve an elegant look, pair with a black outfit and simple minimal accessories and you're good to go!
