Army Green Dream

Here's a little something I put together for work today. I am in love with Army green colored items and took advantage of that today. I have on 7 of all mankind jeans, a Zara military inspired dress, Steve Madden motorcycle boots, a classic Gucci bag and my favorite pashmina/hijab. Fashionable... Modest... CUTE

Shopping With The Girls

My hubby suprised me with a gift card to go shopping today. I'm so excited  to find some cute outfits. I'm really hoping it's not going to be to hard to find clothes to fit my new modest look... Here's what I put on to hit the mall with the girls. Its super simple yet cute and modest... What do you think?

Traditional Muslimah Garb

    I wanted to talk briefly about the traditional way of dressing for Muslimahs.
As a new Muslimah, who was once a slave to the fashion world, its a bit of a struggle for me to dress in the traditional garb. Big shapeless abayas and khimars along with covering my latest wash and set with a hijab was truly a mortifying thought for me. As I began to study and learn more about why us Muslimahs should be covered up, I embraced it wholeheartedly. I must say, its a relief to walk down the street without some strange man undressing me with his eyes or shouting rude and vulgar obscenities at me. Its also an extra treat to think that only my future husband will be able to enjoy my physical beauty. Although I am still easing into the traditional way of dressing, I encourage all muslimahs to embrace the sunnah way of dressing. We are all here to please Allah (swt) first and foremost!!
Below I have on a traditional black abaya and hijab. I added a few cute pins to my hijab and topped it off with my favorite Chanel bag. What do you guys think?

A Beautiful Fall Day

Dress... Old Navy
Jeans... 7 For All Man Kind
Boot... Uggs
Jacket... Arden B.
Bag.. Louis Vuitton
Accessories... Forever 21

WORK WORK WORK!!

As salaamu alaikum Ummah.

Today was another work day for me. I feel like I didn't stop working until I literally fell asleep. In the day time I work at our family daycare, and in the evenings I work on the marketing and the blog. On extremely busy days like this I am grateful I no longer wear super tight low rise skinny jeans and uncomfortably cut tops :0/ lol ... Dressing modest is so much more comfortable and relaxing. Below is the super comfy outfit I wore today, Top Shop maxi skirt, Gap long sleeved black tee, Steve Madden snake print Oxfords, J Crew wool pea coat and cheetah print hijab. What do you think?

Remixing The Over Garment

As salaamu alaikum and good day to you all...

 So, I'm not the biggest fan of the traditional over garments and abaya's but I certainly wear them as often as possible. I try to dress them up with jeans underneath and with super cute coats, bags and shoes. Here are 2 of my "remixed over garment" looks. I hope its Sunnah and modest enough as my intentions are to please Allah (swt). What do you think??



Family Dinner in ATL

Asa Muslimahs,

I hope everyone had a great Eid ... Today we finally launched our blog and we are extremely excited!!! Let me start off with a little outfit I put together when me, the kids and hubby went to dinner.

Shirt & cardigan…  Target
Skirt... forever21
Hijab... Walmart

The Controversial Dress

As'salaamu Alaikum and good day to you all...

Today was a special day for me because I saw my Abu and was able to make salaat with him for the very first time, Masha ‘Allah. It was an amazingly epic moment, Ahumduallah for that experience. Below is the outfit that I had on. A green vintage baby doll dress, 7 For All Mankind jeans, Steve Madden snake print oxfords, a black wool blazer, Chanel bag, and a cheetah print hijab.

Although it was one of my favorite modest outfits since converting, as I was able to incorporate my love for fashion with my love for Islam, it didn’t go over so well with the muslimahs from my local masjid. Apparently it isn’t sunnah enough and “I should consider dressing more modest” :0/ ...  I was told  my outfit is totally acceptable but now I’m not so sure. What do you think?

Let's Get Started

Welcome Sisters!
                Fashionable Muslimah  Stories is all about two Muslim sisters that would like to share their journey in Islam through fashion, life stories, and our personal opinions. We were born Muslim and after our parents divorced we stopped practicing. Twenty year laters, we have found our way back to our roots in Islam, Alhumdulillah. We are here to share our incredible stories through our love of fashion, family, music, diverse opinions, and qwirky comedic spins.
 
     Imani, the older more reserved sister is a 33 years old mother of 3 and wife of 1 :0/  (lol, there's that qwirky comedic spin)...  As a mother and wife, living in the suburbs of ATL, she has a more laid back, easy going lifestyle but, still has an edge to her from her time growing up in the streets of Brooklyn, NY. She loves fashion but is more of the everyday fashionista.
 
    Me (Bahiyah), the single, childless sister, is a 31 year old career women with 12 years of marketing experience, and a history that can make your head spin.  Being the wilder, untamed one allows me to push the boundaries and take you on an adventurous rollercoaster ride that you aren’t sure how you got on, but refuse to get off. My opinions and outlook on things is edgier and  caters to the fashionably trendy urban city girl.
 
     We are both new muslimahs trying to find our way back to our Islamic roots. While struggling to overcome the new challenges in our everyday life, we are embracing the only way of life for us.

Take this journey with us, as we learn new things, show you our modest fashion, change our diet (me more than Imani lol) and become the best Muslimahs we can be.
