2017| #Fashion Wishlist/Lookbook
Monday, February 20, 2017
Heyyyyy
there! Oh my, can you believe that this is my first actual post for 2017! Say
WHAAATTTTT??? Crazy right?! I can't believe it myself that I haven’t blogged in that long but since starting work full time things have been a bit
hectic and a lot more harder and I seriously get so tired when I’m back home
after a full day. (I will do an update post on life in general soon) So I
finally got a chance to sit down and do a blog post and I’ve decided to kick my
first post off with a fashion look book post. I miss taking outfit pictures and
haven't taken any in ages just because my sister is kind of lazy to come out
and take my pictures and also complains about the weather so I have no photographer #thestruggleisreal
Anyway
let’s get right in to this look book. I have put together a mini look book of
two outfits featuring items that I really like/want. I love both of these
outfits as they are both very different to each other. My first outfit is more for an everyday
casual look where as the second outfit is more classy evening wear.
Outfit One
As mentioned above this is my more go to casual everyday sorta’ outfit. It’s compiled of simple staples but with a bit of style to it. You’ll see what I mean.. Just look for yourself. I’m totally in love with this outfit <3
Jumper
This jumper made it to my wish list as I've wanted one of these Arabic printed ones for quite a while now after seeing them trending around on insta. I feel like the arabic really gives the jumper some personality as it is customisable & on top of that, who doesn’t love a good jumper that keeps you cosy and fashionable at the same time?! This one is from @zidouriclothing on instagram.Skinny Trousers
With this outfit I would pair these slim fit stretch trousers. I find trousers much more comfortable than jeans. I picked out these trousers which I really like, there simple and can pretty much go with anything. If you wanted something more affordable Primark does some really nice stretchy slim fit trousers which retail for about £9.00? I own a couple of pairs of them for work and I love them <3 Or if you prefer jeans then I would totally recommend the Primark jeggings too :DTrainers
Okay so I’ve wanted some white trainers for quite some time now so had to add these on to my look book/wish list when I saw them. I mean how stunning do these Adidas Superstars look. I'm sure many of you have seen these as they are very popular. I always see people wearing them or featuring these in their pictures and they look so good <3Hijab
Last but not least, (& of course the most important) is this hijab from Love Hijab! This hijab is called ‘Plain Jane Gets Wavey’. It's a gorgeous shade and adds a bit of colour to the outfit.
Oh & whilst were on
the topic of Love Hijab, I just want to mention that she does the cutest style
of packaging ever! Love it! <3
Outfit Two
For
this second outfit, I have put together a much girlier look which would be
great for evening wear.
I found this gorgeous burgundy maroon jumpsuit from ASOS. Jumpsuits are one of my all-time fave pieces of clothing to style. They are so fashionable yet so simple. I just love how it is such a versatile item to play around with.

Open Abaya
To compliment the jumpsuit I paired it with a long black open abaya from Inayah Collections. Inayah Collections is another place which have some amazing modest pieces. I always see such stunning outfits styled with an open abaya and I always fall in love with them. The designs on some of the ones I have seen over Instagram are absolutely beautiful. I love how this elegant modest abaya can transform your outfit within seconds!
This
open abaya I have picked is just a simple plain black one to complete the
look. It has so much versatility so it can be styled with lots of other outfits
too.
For the shoes, I kept it simple
with these tie up black sandal heels. I went for smaller block heels because I
prefer them over high heels and as I’m already quiet tall. Also I find them much easier to walk in!
Hijab
The hijab I decided to pair this with is one from Love Hijab once again. I absolutely adore this page. She has some of the most amazing hijabs and the shades of the hijabs are great. I used the hijab in the shade Coconut (which is a mink/nude) as it compliments the maroon, but alternatively I could also opt for the black one in the shade Licorice to go with the abaya and heels. I would then spice up my whole outfit with a gold clutch and accessories to finish.
So those are my two outfits. I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I loved putting it together. Leave me a comment and let me know what your fave outfit was from the two. Before I let you go, check out Love Hijab's page for a bunch of stunning hijabs and go show her some love by following her on her social media :D
