Resort wear Japanese style, they do it so well!
Fashion Japan Style
I love looking through Japanese Fashion Magazines, for a Muslimah there are a lot of ideas that can translate well. No surprise then that I’m excited to share with you what I found. This Japanese Magazine was brought back by my Dad and step Mum from their recent trip, well chosen by my ‘Japan fashion correspondent’ Miya (my lovely sister). I was going to wait till I uploaded them all to post them up, but I couldn’t wait to show you!
I love the contrast of the boxy grey blazer and the frilly loose floral tunic, and that long skirt is stunning! I want it!
Magazines- East vs. West
I think there were even more inspirational images in this magazine than there were in the last one I featured, I love how fashion magazines in Japan feature so many outfits. Every page is filled with different combinations, a contrast in style to the Western mags who tend to feature just one, or a few key pieces.
With all these outfits you only need a few tweaks to get them right for a hijabi. A jacket or cardigan over the maxi dress, some wide leg jeans under the floral tunic (with the jacket sleeves rolled down) and some long sleeves with the skirt. Not forgetting the headscarf of course!
I’ll be posting some more Japanese style features soon enough which is good news if like me you love the fresh but quirky style of the Japanese girls! I think when it comes to non Muslim countries no-one else pulls off modest fashion in such an interesting way. But then again I’m probably biased 
! I’d love to see the modest style of other countries though, if you have any photos send them in and I’ll do a post about modesty across the globe!

Hye there Japan fashion lovers. actually recently i just brought in Japan brand clothes. I also feel that my fellow muslim friend can mix match to be a great combination of outfit. Nevertheless, awareness is still not there yet.
DO drop by my web, and comment on those maxi dresses. Any advice to expand my help to my community Muslim friends ar welcome.
