Hijabi goes Punk!

It’s Friday night and I thought of something I would love to wear. I do not own anything featured above but lust is indeed beautiful.

Black skinny jeans from anywhere – the cheapest would be from Peninsula Plaza for about $20 if you’re great at bargaining; Turqoise jersey dress from Bugis Street – thought those are not from Bugis Street, I know they have a lot of that kind of dresses there; Black leather jacket – I’M STILL LOOKING FOR THIS! Blue printed scarf from Gap/Old Navy.com and lasat but not least, Black Doc Martens boots. I just found out you can get them at Le Meridian Hotel at Orchard. Thou shalt be mine soon, oh Dr Martens!

I would recommend wearing this to a night out in town. I know Singaporeans are not the savviest dresses as a lot of us fear dressing up too much. But I reckon this outfit will suit our lifestyle just fine.

PS: I’ll be searching for the leather jacket when I head North to KL next month! Hee hee!

From School to Cool

Reading the various fashion blogs for Hijabis has made me want to start inspiring fashion for similar hijabis. I’m sure you’re all going ‘yeah right.. you’re already doing so many things on your blog!’ which is precisely why I have a blog! This is my space, and I thought I want to share with you readers what I’ll be wearing some time this week for work and then head out for a night of fun.

I got the plaid shirt (in a lighter colour) from Topshop for $49 – they’re having their mid-seasonal sale now! The pants are from Dorothy Perkins for $43 and the Vans are from Miz29 at Century Square. You can substitute the hijab for any red hijab or scarf, and same goes for the accesories. Oh by the way, Diva was having a Nothing-Over-$9 sale on Saturday so I got myself a similar looking bracelet for $6 and a black ring for $3. As for the bag, I don’t think Dorothy Perkins have them in store any more. It was from last season, I think.

I’ll be doing more of these whenever I’m free. It’s time I share the secrets of looking good and presentable as a Muslimah.
