Burberry Square

This is a great picture and style because it is simple, polished, and easy.

The pictured style is easy to enjoy. To get this look put on a plain under scarf, fold a large scare scarf into a triangle, center it over your head, and secure beneath the chin with a bar pin.

An original Burberry scarf would be expensive, but if you search eBay you can find similar scarves for a fraction of the price. A nice variation would be to use a fun print scarf (like leopard). This style, or a variation of this style, would be great to jazz up a plain abaya or jilbab, and it would also look great with many modern outfits. The only drawback to this style is that you need to make sure you have appropriate chest coverage if the tail of your scarf is tied behind.

Great Buys

Today I stumbled across a great sale at H&M. In general, I frequent this store because it often carries modern clothing that are modest styling friendly. Today my new closet additions are tee-shirt tunic hybrids, both cost only 5 dollars : )

The black one is a classic loose, yet not boxy, tunic. It has elbow length sleeves and the hem falls mid-thigh. This one will look great paired with anything from wide leg jeans, to flowing skirts. It is relatively plain, so it will be great to add accessories to.

The second find has a more unique cut. Its styling is reminiscent of a butterfly style abaya, since it is loose beneath the arms and gets more fitted around the arms. Much to my surprise, despite the thinness and great breath-ability of this shirt, it was not transparent; however, it is a bit shorter than I would have liked.

It would have been neat if there were long sleeve versions of these shirts, I would have especially like to see long sleeves on the gray one. Other than that these are nice pieces at a great price. Also, if you are in store check out the great selection of accessories, which are perfect for personalizing and dressing up plain outfits.
