MW's Hijab Friendly Fall Trends


So, my body signals to me when its Fall, and the Summer has ended. Its signs like, my feet are cold ALL day long, my skin is EXTRA dry - meaning that I need to add EXTRA moisturising cream on my face, that a cup of hot chocolate looks more appealing than a mango smoothie!!
With the Fall theme in my head, I thought I ought to share what I think are the hijab friendly fall trends this season. And, oh...its a corker!!

Trend Numero Uno: BLOUSES
(Okay, I`m cheating slightly. They were huge in the Spring/Summer trends, but I LOVE them AND still on trend for the Fall)

I think they`re GORGEOUS. Perfect for modesty as they don`t have to be fitted and the baggier the better, especially if worn with slim fit trousers and heels.
I also think they look amazing with maxi skirts.

TIP: try and look out for blouses where they have pretty cuffs, as the top of the blouse is often hidden by the scarf, so the pussybow, the intricate collar, etc are missed, but if your cuffs are detailed then it won`t be so bad lol.

Trend Numero Dos: MAXI SKIRTS
(Again, cheating, and just following on the Spring/Summer trend)
But, they`ll be everywhere this Fall.
Think: Maxi skirt, boots, massive knit jumper!

Trend Numero Tres: KNITS
All the colours you can think of, all the patterns you can think of...and the chunkier the better!!

Trend Numero Cuatro: OVERSIZED
Think oversized items and then balance it with a more slim fit pair of bottoms to rock this trend perfectly.

Trend Numero Cinqo: CLUTCHES
Love them! I wear them more around the village as opposed to in London, as I get scared someone might mug me. Eekk!
But, I love them as I adoreeee structured bags!

Okay, so those are my 5 trends for the Fall. The thing I like about these 5 trends, is that they can all overlap! So, more outfit usage from the clothes. Can`t go wrong with that!
Also, don`t be afraid to throw in a print hijab with these, it`ll look great.
Do it like this:
