You know when you get a purse and you're like "omg I love it!...now which outfit do I wear it with?" Yeah, I had one of those moments when I got this super cute Aztec printed cross-body bag. Well I finally figured it out and I made this outfit one loud for sure. As if having a bold print for the purse wasn't enough, I just added a little color. Honestly though, it is just a little, just extremely bright :D My cousin had gotten the scarves but she told me she wouldn't wear them, so I figured I couldn't turn down an opportunity to wear a highlighter colored scarf and just stand out like no tomorrow. And so that's what I did. The long light denim blouse allows for all the mix of colors to somehow fuse into each other. You know how I love to contrast my colors, so I did so by wearing my favorite African flip-flops that has a vibrant blue beading, contrasting the neon orange. You just need to be a little creative and in a "yolo" mood to wear something like this. Also, yes I took all of these pictures with a selfie stick! To my friend that got it for me, thank you again! Hope you guys love the outfit as much as I do and keep posted for Thursday's topic! :)

 Man can Florida get hot. It was so hot at the picnic yesterday, my face kind of felt like it was burning. But, hey who wouldn't come to visit here during the summer especially with all our amazing theme parks :D





          HI guys. I know I went MIA on the outfit posting for a few weeks, but I told you I'd be back! I guess I can call this outfit a classic "me" outfit because it consists a few things: 1) long and flowy, 2) a kimono (or komodo dragon as my fiancé calls it), and 3) floral print. I wore this outfit for our multi-mosque Eid picnic (which was very nice actually), because it's really light (material wise) and comfortable and it was long enough where I could wear leggings underneath instead of jeans or pants (because I honestly don't know how people do that in this weather).
But since it was for Eid, I dressed it up with a long chained necklace that I honestly haven't worn since probably high school. I think because my scarf style changed, I forgot how to wear the long necklaces. But since the high-low maxi is loose, I was able to throw it on and add a little fancy shmancy to the outfit. Of course I always have my rings...I love rings. With the komodo dragon having...oops, I mean kimono! Thanks irfan *squinty eyes to the side emoji*! The kimono has both the emerald forest green and salmon pink on it allowing for the scarf to flow well with the high-low maxi dress. Very simple outfit, even you could put something like this together! Well hope you guys loved the outfit and are having a fun-in-the-sun (or shade preferably) summer!

Just writing the title already has got the song stuck in my head but hello my lovely fashionistas! It's Monday, and we all know what that means..it means 4 more days till Friday! So blogging and looking at other bloggers made me realize that people try looks that could appeal to as many as people as possible and that's good! But everyone's got their classic look and putting this together made me realize that it's been some time since I've got to wear and share my classic look of meshing pattern-blocking and color-blocking. I had actually just bought this polk-a-dot dress and even though I probably have a lot of polk-a-dot tops...eh what is one more going to do right! It's perfect for the summer and all my hijabis out there because it's loose, flowy yet flatters you and keeps you cool because of the material (wow, I should just get into advertising because you know I sold it to ya!).
I'm thinking it'll be my summer dress, or one of them for that matter. You may have felt you've seen this too many times, but sometimes you just want to your classic look so hope you still loved the outfit and see you next Monday!

This outfit makes me feel like the girl from Wild Thornberry, except I don't have a talking monkey as a friend. Ever look in your closet and say "what would happen if I put these two together?" Well that is what happened to me. At first I had thought to my comfortable jasmine black pants on them to suit the summer "look," but then I fell upon these khakis which I've truthfully had for quite some time but never actually wore, so I figured it was their time to shine. I'm usually not a fan of mixing colors such as khaki/cream and white, but sometime we need to step out of our box. And with the help of a fashion tip of a good friend of mine, the combat boots perfectly pull the colors together! The vibrant mustard yellow scarf adds the spontaneity and "ready for adventure" touch. And who says you can't accessorize when you're on an adventure, thus the arm candy! The jeaned blouse over the striped shirt seemed the appropriate cardigan to give this outfit its adventurous look. Well my fashionistas, hope you loved this outfit as much as I do and don't forget to follow @stylebfj on twitter if you have one!

We all have these times where the shopping was so good and we loved what we bought so much that we figure out as many different outfits as possible around that article of clothing. I just got this new cardigan of a style I didn't think would suit me but ended up wearing it to three different events on three different days. What can I say, it fuels my creativity! Hey, at least I'm using it to the best of its abilities. But on another note, have you guys noticed something different (*cough cough* look towards the shoes)? Yes, yes I actually did it. I have finally bought black combat boots. I didn't think this would happen because I wasn't too fond of the idea of black boots on outfits but now they have made their purpose in my closet. Oh don't worry I still love my camel tan ones a lot more, but these ones are just super cute and actually an essential;I'm planning on changing them up a little with a DIY activity that will hopefully be successful, but we'll see since it is I who is doing it.
Oh I can't forget about the scarf! It's also a new addition to the scarf collection; there was just something about the print that made me want it, along with the color diversity that makes it quite versatile.

Selfie with the photographer!

This will be the last fashion post for some time but do still keep posted because I'll be showing you other things that you may like to add to your closet.
Hope you guys have a wonderful week and don't forget to wear a cute outfit when buying your PSLs (pumpkin spice lattes), even if you're in Florida!

For the next few months, you'll just be hearing (or reading) me go on about how much I love this weather because for us Floridians, when it gets 60 degrees...we bring out our cup of hot cocoa and tell ourselves that we need to have pumpkin spice lattes (when we all know that we really don't because it's still not cold enough).

Okay, onto the outfit! Today's outfit is actually a favorite of mine because of how easy it is to put together but also because of how vibrant it is yet still staying with the fall theme. I guess we can say we're getting into "sweater weather" and I actually don't wear this one too often but I bring it out with this outfit because it blends so well with the colors of the floral scarf and adds a pop to the gray and white chiffon polk-a-dot shirt. Because of the length of the shirt and sweater (or long cardigan as some call it), I topped the outfit off with my boots of course but you could certainly do flats or even converse or those vans styled shoes ( I don't know the proper terminology so vans styled is what I'm going with). Well I hope you guys have a lovely week enjoying this weather and everything about it from the cute outfits, the cute instagram pictures we take of our lattes, oh and not to mention the cute stylebyfj posts that'll be coming up :D

Hi guys! :) How's your day been so far, if you're reading this later in the week, how's your week been? I'm in quite a good mood and why not, it's Monday! I should probably do my positivity challenge right now...but I'll do it later (more like in a week).


So I was debating as to what theme I should set for this week's outfit. Because it's mid-September and they're advertising pumpkin everywhere (I mean have you seen Dunkin Donut's advertisement) so I wanted to start the fall theme, but you know living in Florida can hold you back from that. So I decided to have this outfit show that now it's time to sizzle down and cool off into the fall outfits; but of course if I bounce back to a summer outfit it's probably because it is so hot that week and wearing sued
e boots and a leather jacket just won't work. So in order to cool off, I color blocked some chilled colors that are my personal favorites, a vibrant, frosty mint and refreshing cobalt blue (get that color in your closet if it's not there yet!). What I love about these outfits is that if I want to mix colors such as this together, all I need to do is look for a scarf with those colors in it and it just wraps it all together. Gosh I just love scarves (especially my floral ones), they just complete my outfits (yes, I know I'm a hijabi so it should). And I added the braided belt just because I like to neutralize all the colors mixing together.

Well I hope you guys loved this rather easy and cute outfit and get excited for the fall outfits, because I know I am!

That title rhymes, right? Just a little, because I kept on repeating it and I think I convinced myself that it rhymes. Well my fashionable fellows, this week we've got a hybrid. I've actually done this concept of mixing fall and summer clothing but this is different especially with kimonos becoming "the thing". You guys know how much I love my boots, if I could wear them all of June and July, let's be real here, I probably would. According to those weather dudes, the cool fall weather should be coming in now and you know what that means....pumpkin spice lattes and boots! But of course, Florida once to be the odd ball out which makes me work with the heat and fulfill my fall fashion!

Right when I bought this kimono, the first thing I thought of was how good it would look with my combat boots (I'm not obsessed with them, I promise). So I simply gathered the basics down: kimono, black dress, and combat boots. Now to figure out the color combination of the jeans and scarf. I had to figure out a good combination of a summer and fall color that of course won't look strange together. I couldn't help but use my peach coral scarf that I've been glued to this whole summer; and color blocked it with my favorite vibrant royal blue skinnies that mix oh so well with the camel tan tone of the combat boots (you guys know you love it)! I felt like wearing a big ring (since those are my favorite accessories), so I dashed on my chunky mint colored ring that correlates well with both colors.


Just always have to make a face

Well, if you're stuck like me and want to wear your fall clothes but it's too hot to go all out, then make a hybrid outfit! Have a good rest of the week guys! :)

I wasn't ready...

"First day of school! First day of school!" I don't know why, I kept on hearing that in my head in Nemo's voice (it was one of my favorite movies okay). So last night I tweeted that I didn't know what I was blogging for today being Monday and first day of the new semester, when I actually did know (well, kind of). So I got ready for my 7:30 class (yes, that early in the morning) and I was like "hey, this is cute," and then changed...I have no idea why, but I did! I had this outfit saved for later because I'm wearing my first maxi skirt! I know right, it's about time I have one so I saw it (on clearance of course) and bought it, and am so glad I did. Now that outfit you shall see later.

It has pockets!

So anyway, many of you that already have a maxi skirt, and know they basically work with any top of an appropriate color of course; so I just grabbed two patterns I haven't put together in quite some time and touched it up with a light cream colored cardigan that works with the off-white color of the scarf and bam, first day of back outfit! What did you wear on your first day back? And it better not have been sweat pants :P

You guys remember that blog I posted about the essential pieces of clothing you need in your closet? Well, I've got a new essential, and that my friends is a cobalt blue maxi. Yes, you need it! It's not only appropriate for the summer, but it's such a pretty color that you can easily dress it up for a night out with that special someone ;D just kidding that special someone is me, myself, and I  ( #dontaskmeoutIwearascarf ). But honestly though, you guys need to go shop for one (ehem at H&M...I promise I'm not addicted to this store, well kind of not addicted). You can make it into a maxi skirt like I did with today's outfit or put a cardigan, blazer, even a leather jacket if you want to feel super edgy! Because it's summer time, and I'm just soaking up the summer colors, I was feeling the stripes since it reminds me of sailing ( #Imonaboat ) and well the orange on the bag just POPS, and makes it fun and stands out and it's been a while since I've worn it, so I thought why not! Well hope you guys loved this week's outfit and are excited for more because I've just got so many ideas and I can't wait for you to see them!

Just kidding I'm always a teen! But, yes this Monday I turned twe-...twen-...twenty. Yeah, still not used to saying it. I honestly didn't know how to relate this outfit to why I chose it besides the fact that it's just super cute and I thought I'd dress it up with the accesories and stay chic and classy with it by using pearls and my rose gold watch. Also, how much do you love the bag? Because I just love it. I've always wanted a duffle bag like that but they're usually too big but this one is just perfect and ah, so cute! It was a birthday gift:)
Well anyways, I hope you guys love the outfit and oh I think you'll really like next week's! Also, sorry for the very late post!

You know what can be labeled as a good study break? Making outfits for the summer of course! I haven't used this cardigan in forever and my mom and I decided to go "grocery shopping" when we really went to go eat wings (hehe). So I threw on this cardigan and grabbed one of my favorite scarves and bam! It worked, and what I really like about this outfit is how comfortable it is and so made for the beach. The cardigan is really light and loose and the vibrant blue with stripes makes it totally summer appropriate! Hope you guys love this week's outfit and yay finals are almost done so maybe I actually will wear this to the beach soon! ;D

This outfit just sums up the color blocking and pattern blocking to tee so not much explaining is necessary (I think I almost rhymed there:D), but this week I decided to show the people behind stylebyfj! These girls aren't the only ones that I've helped me get to where I am, but they've done more than I can ask for and I'm always so happy and blessed when I realize that I have them to go back to for anything. Both are extremely talented themselves in make up and hair, two departments which I have very little talent in. They're basically my left and right wing, but sh they don't need to know I love them that much. Well, hope you guys loved this week's outfit!
