[Sweet Modesty] Reader Request: Long and Maxi Cardigans

Not too long ago [oh shoot, my email says 8 days ago], I received a request from a reader at Sweet Modesty.

As you may have heard, Sweet Modesty + Greater Lengths have joined forces to provide you an exclusive service for making modest shopping inquiries.  Among our first requests, this reader is, not surprisingly, looking for long cardigans.

Hey, I've been looking for long/maxi cardigans, I can't seem to find petite sizes nor a reasonable price. I hope you can help me!
Hawa, of course we can!  Thankfully, the timing is right for us as we're hitting the first batch of seasonal sales at retail stores all over.  These long sweaters, also called boyfriend sweaters, for their long lines and easy fits, pop up but rarely does there seem to be more than one of these types of sweaters in the store.

I've gathered a few of them here - divided between neutrals (tans, black, whites, creams), colored (a rainbow of them!), and finally - dusters.  Dusters are the comfy, more stylish alternative to a great sweatshirt.  They're not as hefty as sweater coats, but usually longer than boyfriend cardigans.

What do you think?  Which one of you is making you reconsider your November clothing budget right now?

Dress in Autumn - Scarlets, Russets, Maroons, & Burgundies

In anticipation for this supposed storm that's hitting the Northern Virginia region/entire East Coast region, my brother and I decided to rake the leaves lying outside (wet leaves are SUCH a hassle).  The storm is not here but the leaves are gone, and with it, all the beautiful scarlets and maroons and golds and pumpkins and burnt oranges and yellows that littered the lawn in such a Picasso-like dazzle of color.

You can recreate the look of an autumnal yard with some of these finds.  Check out the other posts (like this one on mustards and golds) for all your fabulous modest and stylish Muslim women clothing finds.  There's something for everyone this fall!
