Celebrity Style Steal..Wardina Safiyyah

Actress, presenter, model and mother, Wardina Safiyyah is my next style steal. She lives in Malaysia, but is mixed race herself and started wearing hijab back in Ramadan of 2000. I cannot get enough of her diverse style and she is certainly my favorite 'celebrity style steal' so far. So here is a taste of her hijab fashion approach:

Starting glam, I love this gold dress she's wearing! The pink one the other women's got on is so cute, I want both outfits :D

I'm not the greatest fan of abayas, but this one is so stunning. The outfit of the other women is gorgeous - a simple way to glam up a hijab outfit is to wear a really 'dressy' top with a plain block colour skirt.


Wardina hearts pink:

Here she appears on the cover of a mag in a cute Turkish hijab:

With her pals in pink and gold - a fantastic combination:

So cute!

A day not wearing pink is a day very much wasted..

A really nice simple outfit with, of course, a pink touch:


My Steal:

Copying her pink theme (kinda)..

Soft colours..(ish) by Zaenab

OK.. so not everyday. Not much of a lover of orange myself but what a great pic of her with her friends, awww:

I love bold prints, they look really nice when worn with the right stuff, like here:


This outfit is stunning!! Gold is one of my fave colours and she's pulled it off by keeping it simple. I'll try my best not to be too jealous of the (most probably) real Louis Vuitton she's clutching so protectively..well I don't blame her!


And last but not least, Wardina with the cutest, most adorable accessories a women can have (well, maybe apart from a Chanel bag but..)


[P.S. In case you think I'm mean - I know babies aren't objects, so don't fret, I won't treat any children I may have in the future like accessories..]

How To Wear Wide Leg Jeans

Wide leg jeans are great when you know what to wear with them, if not, it can all go terribly wrong :( Here are some tips on how to wear them and what to wear them with:

Layering:

Wide legs look really good with layered clothing; wear a mixture of textures and lengths (of tops) for a great look. Check out these cute layered outfits -

Love this next one! Swing jackets can look great with wide legs but just make sure it doesn't make you look too big :O

Shoes?

It's so important to get this right with wide legs! Shoes to go for if you are petite are wedges and most types of heels (ankle boots are great). This makes you appear taller and lengthens your legs, just make sure the jeans skim the floor when you have the shoes on.

Taller people can also wear wedges (but make sure the jeans still skim the floor like in the pics) but flats also look great with wide legs. Oh and sandals for lush on everyone! Yay :D

Check out these cute metallic flats:

And these ankle boots look fab with the wide jeans:


Short Tunics:

Wide leg jeans are one down from a full length skirt so they are pretty modest. This allows you to put your shorter tunics and dresses to good use -

I like the neutral tones of the pic above, I think is would look cute with a small cardigan added to hijabify :)

Celebrities:

And finally, you don't have to be a copy cat, you can take inspiration from the fashion focused..

Have fun experimenting with wide leg jeans! ^-^
