This winter, think one word: 'layermania'. Perfect for modesty and those short sleeved dresses, layering is the stylish hijabis best friend. There's sooo many different ways to get the look so I'd be mad to try and go through them all but here are some ways I like to layer..and some ways I certainly don't.. Don't :(
Those are the sort of sleeves I'm talking about. And so are these:
Who cares if they're models and this is a professional photo-shot?! Face it: a halter neck vest with a horrid basic top underneath to 'do the job' is never going to cut it in my books. Next, try and guess who I think got it all wrong because I don't want to be any meaner..
Oh whatever.. that blue maxi could have looked soo much nicer with a bolero or denim jacket.
I looove this next one, it's so feminine and the cardi is very hijab friendly and also baby friendly by the looks of things :) it also shows you can layer one colour. Yay :D
And let's not, of course, forget our good friends 'chunky knit' and 'boyfriend cardigan' ^-^
OK, I know a lot of hijabis think this look is great but I think different. For me, wearing one of those 'long sleeved basic' tops under any short sleeved dress screams "I'm only trying to cover!" This is wrong girls, your outfit should scream "stylishly modest!!" Anyway, enough of the rant, here's what I mean:

And now some layering that I actually like:
Before you think this is exactly the same as what I just said was disgusting, it's not the same because she has layered 3 tops which kinda works here and the colours are adorable:

I have to admit that tops under a dress can sometimes look nice but if and only if the sleeves underneath are the statement piece, e.g. a contrasting colour or a pattern against a solid coloured dress. Those balloon sleeved blouses look fab under a sleeveless dress too! :P

Sorry, it's a bit hectic but I had a lot burst into my head at once :o) anyway, get layering girls..and start with a cardigan!
