My first outfit of the day!




Hi guys! It's me Haafsah (although it may be your first time hearing this name and your first time seeing me) but this is now going to be the place where I show my outfits and hope to inspire others as well. As a Muslim girl, I know that it is quite difficult to find that balance between modesty and fashion (i.e. dressing up nicely), however I want to show that it is possible to dress up with modesty, because I'm not going to lie I seriously think about how I can keep myself covered up whilst wanting to wear the things I want to wear, but keep my own sense of style intact. But, I do know that everyone has a different opinion or idea of what 'modesty' means. My blog, is to show my modesty and my genuine love for clothes, shoes, jewellery (man you name it!). However, I do hope to inspire others whoever it may be, Muslims and non-Muslims. One last thing, is my advice to everyone out there who likes to dress up in any sort of way: dress for yourself and not according to what others think of you and what you wear, be confident in yourself and don't think about other people's opinions, because your life is your life and not for others to control :)



On this day I went out with my best friend to South Kensington because I had a craving for a crepe (yes I know it was all because of a craving, but what can you do girls). But, this is just my outfit that I put on in the morning which I ended up loving because of the colour combinations.



At the moment I have an obsessions with cat-eye sunglasses and this one is from ASOS (£12) and all you scarfies (who are from London) know that the scarf you can literally buy from anywhere for £3 in Whitechapel (the most common place), but I bought mine from Green Street :)




If you know me, you know I absolutely LOOOOVEE my jewellery! The necklace is from Zara and the rings are all from Indian stores on Green Street (but they are quite old so I don't really know the prices, sorry guys).



The final thing is my shoes! I absolutely LOVE them. They are from Zara and even for Zara I must say are quite cheap (£29.99) from the new basic collection. I'm loving the khaki colour and the fact that they are lace-ups, also the fact that they are small heels for once which means that I can wear them more often (without having to necessarily kill my feet because the rest of my heels are quite tall).



Outfit details:   Blouse: Next, £30
          Trousers: Zara, £29.99 (I think, but went on sale)
Bag: Zara (last year, around £40)
Shoes: Zara, £29.99
Necklace: Zara, (around £30)
Jewellery: An assortment (sorry that's all the info I have on them)



And here's a final selfie from me! I hope you guys liked my outfit and whoever sees this comes back to see more. Just a final message: I really want to use this blog to promote positivity, because after all style should be unique and about what you want to wear.

Lots of love from Haafsah :)
