Classics

I've been watching a lot of stuff on Hulu lately (rarely am I ever in front of the TV when a show actually airs) and Hulu has a certain commercial about Marshall's/TJ Maxx/HomeGoods on repeat.  While the point of the commercial doesn't stick, one of the outfits of star does: the classic button down and sweater look.

By mixing a few button down blouses with pullover v-necks, you can achieve the classic, preppy, clean look that never goes out of fashion.  The new trend, that works so well for modest fashion, is layering a long, tunic-length button down with a classic collared shirt.  It's a look that works well for the professional Muslim-woman while maintaining modesty without sacrificing style.

Check out the options we found below and click on any of the pictures to be taken to the retailer.

The Winter Slouch

I've gotten to the point of late fall/early winter where it's getting too cold to care.  Tired am I of fitted, colorful items.  Layers are coming on and the bulk is building up.  I want to dress quickly and warmly, burrow my head down, and make it to spring.

But obviously, I want to look like a well-dressed version of a hibernating bear.  If possible, I'd look like Edie Blair from Atlantic-Pacific on every one of my grocery runs.


Burrowing from the winter yourself?  We've styled a few options to achieve this modest Muslim casual style for those days you just don't want to try.
