Update and Holiday OOTD #1

Hey guys!! Long time no see hey....I've been rubbish at blogging recently and my schedule has been bussyy but I'm going to let you know what I've been up to.

I was recently on holiday in Istanbul and Dubai, which was amazing and didn't want to come back :(

I'll be sharing some holiday snaps as well as outfit of the days in my blog posts-starting with this post :)

Topkapi Palace

This is an outfit I wore in Istanbul. The weather was similar to the UK-cold and woolly jumper season. I purchased the green jumper recently from HandM at half price for a bargain £7! The plain teal hijab is from Princess Rockz and is a maxi, which means it's extra wide for plenty of coverage at the front and back.

The uber cool necklace is from Camden Market. My favourite buy is the faux leather jacket from Oasis.I've been wearing this with practically all my outfits. Shoes are Forever 21 and maxi skirt from HandM.

Outfit of the Day: Whip your hat back and forth

Excuse the title I just couldn't help myself!

Today was a freezing day of about 2 degrees Celsius- perfect for wearing my winter hijab and bobble hat! (One of the joys of living in a cold country). Some girls love shopping for shoes and others for jewellery. I'm a girl that's kinda obsessed with hats and of course hijabs lol. I have a few other hats which I will show in future OOTD.

There are a mix of colours in the overall outfit but I think it works well together and showcases my style. I have layered with a few tops and finished off with a chunky cardigan. Black is a safe colour for me but I've also incorporated browns and added a fusion of colours with the hijab. I won't bother explaining where I purchased the outfit from as I'm sure you've seen me mention in previous blog posts!

Hmm I think I dropped a £5 note...

Moody much??

Behind the smile I had a snotty nose lol

You can style your hijab in many ways with this kind of hat. For one way you can watch the video below, which can also be used with other type of hats too.

Take care all and have a great weekend! xx

Outfit of the Day-A Chilly Day Along the Bosphorus

 Ok so this isn't much of a stylish outfit but you know what it was FREEZING out in Istanbul, even colder than London! So I wore like five layers and a thick coat or my trusty thick cardigan from Forever 21. This was in practicularly all my photos so for the sake of these piccies I took the cardigan off (for like 10 seconds anyway) Of course the main attraction is the lovely view of the Bosphorus- I just happen to be in there somewhere... (Can you spot the cardigan in question??) I believe this was near the dolombache palace.

So I'm sure you guys know where majority of my outfit is from, but I'll tell you anyway just in case lol. The jeans are from H&M, the boots which I know I do live in (they are too comfortable!) are from Primark, I purchased them last year and they are excellent quality.

The maroon dress is from Primark and the black cardigan is from New Look. I have these cardigans in different colours as they are great for adding to any outfit. They are also loose and light weight. I have another layer underneath which isn't visible, but it is a long sleeved polo top from Primark. The 'Black Wonderland Hijab'  is from Princess Rockz- it was just what I needed to keep my ears and neck warm.

You can follow the tutorial of how I styled the hijab by watching the video below.

Hope you guys enjoyed this rather boring outfit of the day, but I hope to make a post of my trip to Istanbul with lots and lots of photos.

Until next time, take care :o)
