When you want to dress up but don't want to dress up...
I give you these 7 modest casual outfit ideas you need for this spring! Yes, dressing up is fun and makes you feel some type of way. But, those days where you just an't be asked, where you have errands, or it's just tooooo hot, or you're going out ALL day. You want to look cute, but without the layers and extra effort.
People used to always tell me I would get dressed either a fat 0 or 100.
I don't blame them. I would rock up in trackies to an outing because I just didn't know what to wear or just unbothered. And nothing in my wardrobe was a staple that I could style up or down. So I thought, yeh no. I don't want that reputation.
Therefore, after working on my style and refining it to what it is today. I've come to the conclusion that in order to look like those put together rich mums you see on Pinterest, you need to have a capsule wardrobe. Which I have a post about here if you want some inspo.
From investing in a quality capsule wardrobe, refined to your style, you can literally dress your outfits up or down depending on the occasion. Which is how I styled these 7 casual outfits for your next 'unbothered' cute day.
You're welcome.
Casual Outfit Idea #1
A two piece set is just as easy as an opaque long sleeve maxi dress. You don't need to wear any layers underneath. It keeps you cool during the warmer season. You still look put together and appropriate. You just didn't need to try. A pair of flat sandals and your fave sunnies, and you're ready to take on the day. It may be a casual outfit, doesn't mean it's not cute ;).

Casual Outfit Idea #3
I've always seen this outfit on Pinterest and it always gave me Hamptons or Palm Beach vibes. I never found a modest/hijabi girl version of it, so I decided why not create it. This is my version of the blue striped polo top and white 'trousers', but make it halal. There are many variations of this look. I styled it with linen and tan to give it a fresh, clean look.

Casual Outfit Idea #5
Maxi skirt and long sleeve top. Just as good as wearing a pair of trousers and a top that covers. If you know what I mean. The struggle can be real. This casual outfit is still quite casual, but very chic. Something you'd wear for a quick brunch, or even shopping or running errands. The key is to wear items that don't take up too much time to think about and pair with just about anything in your wardrobe.

Casual Outfit Idea #7
I've been loving the long blazer vests that have taken the internet by storm. But for a hijabi, it's annoying when you can't find something that's appropriate for hijabi attire. Until I found this blazer from Forever New! The perfect shade for the warmer season ahead, and SO convenient with the long sleeves. Means less layers! I styled this look with cream tones keeping it elegant yet still very casual.
