Latest Buys And What I Wore To Breakfast Yesterday :))
A number of sisters sent me emails requesting to share my latest buys, so here you go girls! :))
1) Puff sleeve shirt : Puff-sleeved shirts are all over the place as you all know.
Paris Hilton in a puff-sleeved shirt
At the beginning of this trend I wasn't really a fan of it because it reminded me the 80's puff sleeves (which I HATED but HAD to wear because my mum thought it looked really chic and trendy on me ggggggrrrrrrrhhhh!). I changed my mind the moment my eyes fell on this super cute demin shirt at Femi9 :))))
2) Sunglasses : Over-sized sunglasses are still super fashionable, so I got a new pair from Vera Moda.
4) Ruffle Bag : Got this adorable beige ruffled bag from Saki Bags ( By Bubble Handmade Products) to complete the look ;)
This is a wooden flower brooch I got from Parfois more than a year ago but never used..matched perfectly! :)))

3) Silk Scarf:
Actually I got this scarf to match with my new shirt.I got it from Accessorize and because am REALLY obsessed with the idea of turbans , I bought a mini tube shirt (a bra-like shirt) from Bershka and combined it with the scarf to add a turban-like effect.
Now for the final look ! Taraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!And this is what I wore yesterday while having breakfast with my mumi :))
This is a wooden flower brooch I got from Parfois more than a year ago but never used..matched perfectly! :))) If you liked my buys and how I combined everything together plz do leave a comment :))) Thanx !

Turbans-The New Trend
Salamo Aalikom Sisters! :) If you are a true fashionista, you'll probably know that turbans are everywhere! From Ralph Lauren show to Queen Tuanku Nur Zahirah and HH Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser :)
As a Hijabi we could look very elegant wearing a turban, however I have to say we must do some alteration to be Islamically acceptable! Turbans don't cover the neck so we have to do some effort in order to adapt this trend :)
This post will include photos of turbans worn in fashion shows and by public figures. I'll be posting later 2 more posts concerning turbans too; first would be a video and the second will be an Islamic tutorial on how to wear a turban. Hope you'll like it, enjoy it and comment on it enshaa Allah :)
