Mango Skirts

LADDDIEEES! I keep talking about Mango, and I feature their clothing in a lot of my posts. Now, I want to introduce another style to you!

There are a lot of hot looks this season - safari, bohemian.. and others.. but right now, the others are irrelevant. the Boho look is one that hijabis can pull off with the slightest of ease. Breezy fabrics, blues, browns, turqouises too! Long beaded neckaces, bangles and you're out the door looking mighty fashionable!

Sooo I searched up all the long skirts mango had. It looks as if they had hijabis in mind.



These are a bit pricy (the prices are above each skirt), but they are really just an idea for all you hijabis out there. However, people usually spend this much on a formal outfit, so why not invest in one formal skirt, and buy cheaper ones for everday? Also, I wouldn't go for one like the last one -- it's only 79$ for a reason, you know -- it looks like someone threw up a lollipop all over your chic skirt! Now it's all..ugly! haha (had to say it.)

For skirts:

a) go to the mall and check out the stores that sell bathing suits and beach wear (and I mean that specialize in them, not just any store that sells swimsuits). They usually have long skirts because people like to wear them to the beach. You can wear them everyday! And because they're sold for the beach, they'll be super light - - great material for those hot summer dayss! (which i cannot wait for! insha allah!)

b) go to stores where they sell formal clothing. Like stores that sell gowns and dresses. They always have two - piece outfits, a skirt and the top that matches. Just buy the skirt and wear it any which way you want!

c) shop online -- ebay, or any of your favorite stores. Just look under the "skirts" section and skip all the short ones! It's not hard, the long ones are hard to miss.

GO BOHO!

- to complete the look, wear bangles, and loong beaded necklaces. Thick beads work best. But small ones are great too! Especially if you wear more than one necklace. With this look, don't be afraid to layer on the accessories!
