Winter Wonderland...

    بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم   السلام عليكم Winter my absolute favorite time of the year. All I can say is layers, layers and more layers!  If it is done correctly you can wear quite a few different colours and patterns and I'm all about mixing and matching. Here I am wearing a loose, flowy pants with a knitted crop top, a denim shirt, black fleece coat with amazing leather sleeves and topping it off with a pair of boots. Warm and cosy, yet fun and stylish, simply ready to take on the chilly Cape Town day ahead. Coat: Mr Price Denim Shirt: Mr Price Pants: Msquared Boots: Foschini

For the love of Denim...

    بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم   السلام عليكم This is how I rock my turban. Still keeping with the collar trend with my big chunky neck piece. All I did was pop the collar and my neck is covered. The oversized jersey is  simply one of my favorite pieces, so big and comfy, yet its long enough to wear with a jeans. I keep my jeans on the bang side just to be safe.Since the overall outfit is in the same colour pallet I decided to go with a bright,fun multicoloured scarf. Go out there and show off your denim collection in a whole new way!  Jersey: Cotton on Jeans: Mr Price Shirt: Mr Price Bag: Louis Vuitton

Who is this "southern hijaabian?"

    بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم   السلام عليكم Just another muslim teenage girl living in Cape Town, South Africa. I go by the name of Laaiqah Isaacs. This being my first post I want to try and keep it short and simple. Let me begin by saying I honestly believe hijaab is a way of life and by that I mean the way of a muslimah. We cover up because it is our duty and to please the all mighty. Not only is it a covering of the hair and body but its the way we speak, our frame of mind, not wanting to do it for anyone but yourself. In todays day and age it might not be that easy to dress "properly" while trying to keep up with the lastest fashion trends. We don't want to look plain and boring because at the end of the day we all have our own unique style and what to stand out of the crowd, be noticed.   Now tell me who said you can't be covered up and still look absolutely stunning?! I don't believe I am a fashion expert in anyway. All I know is that I will try...
