The Flourishing Evolution: Unveiling the Latest Trends in Women's Skirts
Tumblr media
Introduction
Fashion is an ever-evolving realm, and one of its most versatile and expressive elements is the skirt. As a staple in every woman's wardrobe, skirts have undergone a fascinating transformation over the years. From timeless classics to daring innovations, the latest trends in women's skirts are a testament to the creativity and adaptability of the fashion industry. In this article, we delve into the captivating world of skirts, exploring the most recent trends that are redefining women's fashion.
Tumblr media
Midi Magic: The Timeless Elegance
The midi skirt has made a powerful resurgence in recent years, and it's here to stay. This versatile length sits right below the knee, offering a balance between sophistication and comfort. Midi skirts come in a variety of fabrics, patterns, and silhouettes, making them suitable for a range of occasions. From pleated wonders that sway gracefully to pencil midi skirts that exude professionalism, this trend offers a blend of classic charm and modern flair.
Tumblr media
Pleats Please: Effortless Movement
Pleated skirts have captured the spotlight with their enchanting movement and graceful appeal. Often seen in midi or maxi lengths, these skirts feature delicate folds that create a dynamic and flowing silhouette. Metallic pleats add a touch of glamour, while bold colors and patterns bring vibrancy to any outfit. Pleated skirts can be paired with tucked-in blouses or casual tees, making them a versatile choice for both formal and casual settings.
Tumblr media
Wrap Wonders: Casual Chic
The wrap skirt trend is all about easygoing elegance. With its adjustable wrap-around style, this skirt adapts perfectly to any body shape. From wrap mini skirts for a carefree weekend look to wrap maxi skirts that make a statement, this trend effortlessly combines comfort and style. Floral prints and solid earthy tones are popular choices, adding a touch of femininity to the overall look.
Tumblr media
Sheer Sophistication: Transparent Layers
For those who dare to be bold, sheer skirts are a trend worth exploring. Layered over opaque undergarments or shorts, these skirts play with texture and opacity, creating an alluring and sophisticated ensemble. Sheer skirts are often adorned with intricate embroidery, lacework, or subtle patterns that add depth and interest. They can be paired with sleek blouses or chunky sweaters, allowing for a multitude of styling options.
Tumblr media
Denim Revival: Contemporary Cool
Denim skirts have experienced a resurgence, transforming from their early 2000s aesthetic into a more refined and versatile option. From A-line to pencil silhouettes, modern denim skirts offer a plethora of choices. Distressed details, button-front closures, and asymmetrical hems add a contemporary edge to this timeless fabric. Paired with sneakers or ankle boots, denim skirts effortlessly channel an air of casual coolness.
Tumblr media
Ruffled Whimsy: Playful Flair
Ruffles have taken the fashion world by storm, and they've found their way onto skirts with delightful results. Whether cascading down the length of a maxi skirt or adorning the hem of a mini skirt, ruffles inject a sense of playfulness and movement. Floral prints, pastel hues, and lightweight fabrics enhance the whimsical nature of this trend, making it a popular choice for both summer and transitional seasons.
Conclusion
The world of women's skirts is in a constant state of flux, where traditional styles intertwine with contemporary twists to create a tapestry of options for every woman's unique taste. From the elegance of midi skirts to the daring allure of sheer layers, each trend offers a fresh perspective on fashion and self-expression. As fashion continues to evolve, so too will the beloved skirt, embracing new materials, silhouettes, and influences to captivate our imaginations and redefine our wardrobes.

The ultimate guide to being coquette as a hijabi girlie
Tumblr media
Being a coquette hijabi is so hard because so many of the key motifs (mini skirts/more revealing clothing, the literal meaning of the word, for example) go against what we believe in. But it's not impossible. So here are my personal favorite ways to be a coquette girlie without compromising my faith! (p.s thank you to @augusttheicedcoffeeaddict for reminding me to post this hehe ily)
Also!!! No hate to the coquette girlies who do wear mini skirts etc.
The white maxi skirt  🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Mini skirts are a staple in so many coquette outfits and so many people will try to make you think maxi skirts aren't cute but they're just haters. A cute sweater + a pleated or tiered white maxi skirt + some crafty layering has been such a lifesaving formula for me. Blouses work great for this too. And the things you can put on top of a white maxi skirt are endless. Pretty blouses, mini dresses, sweaters, sweatshirts, even cute tshirts with long sleeved shirts underneath. Same goes for denim skirts. I'm looking for one right now and I can't find any I like, but once I do I'll be unstoppable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bowssss 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Bows. Bows are THE coquette accessory. And, thank god, you don't have to wear a mini skirt to wear bows!
Put them on literally everything. If you want to put them on your hijab, you can use a safety pin to put it on the back of your head, or you could do what I usually do, which is put them in my hijab pins. Depending on the size you can make it as subtle as you want. I have a pinterest tutorial here. (The pic on the left is me!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Heart shaped sunglasses 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Another coquette/vintage americana staple you can wear!
Berets 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Same thing!
Fuzzy white earmuffs 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
These are SOSOSO perfect for winter. (pic on the left is me again heh)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
At home 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
So far, this has all been stuff just in the context of going out in public. At home, I highly recommend doing you hair in a coquette way and wearing things you can only have on in front of family. It's such a confidence booster. It's a bit of effort but it's so so worth it!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her bedroom is the window into the girl's soul 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
The coquette aesthetic is way more than just the clothes and hair. So if you really want to feel coquette, try and make your room as coquette as possible. Put up some coquette posters on your wall. A lot of coquette posters are haramcore and some people don't like putting up faces on their wall, so here are some really cute pics for inspo :3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
What's in your bag? 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Purses can make or break a good outfit. My biggest tip is to match them to your hijab. It pulls it all together. The last thing you want is for your hijab to feel like it's clashing with the rest of the outfit.
What's inside is important too! Inner beauty isn't just for living things. Keep whatever essentials you already have, plus lipgloss, a compact mirror bc no one's out here trying to have a bad hijab day, and a little bit of ribbon. Trust me about the ribbon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shoes!!! 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Please don't wear a super cute coquette outfit and then wear tennis shoes. Just don't. Mary janes, Doc M's, and ballet flats are all really good choices.
Ik I probably sound like I'm obsessing over tiny things, but you kinda have to bc when you're breaking the mold every little thing matters.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lastly <3 🦢˚✧𓂃🩰 ໒꒱ ⋆ ˚ ⊹
Last but not least, do not ever ever let people make fun of you. If you're a hijabi coquette girlie, you probably have some form of a muslim community, and they probably won't dress in your style. That was my case, and when I first started wearing mary janes and lace gloves I got SO made fun of. Not from the adults, but from my friends. One girl called my mary janes dorky and said they annoyed her every time she saw them. I think she expected me to laugh, but you just have to keep a straight face and say to their face that you thought that was rude. She never called me dorky again 🤷‍♀️
Take this post as a reminder that you can stay true to your faith while looking fabulous. If you have any questions pls pls feel free to ask anything. Ily all honeys, bye ♡

Tumblr media
Put together a collage of my Werewolf MC Hala from @barbwritesstuff Bloodmoon and decided to include some additional info and hedcanons about her.
Name: Hala bint Badr
Pronouns:she/her
Height: 5ft.5”/165.1cms
Appearance: An average height Arab woman with a tan complexion, dark brown curly hair, hazel eyes, aquiline nose and medium build. Hala is often seen wearing layered clothes, homemade jewelry, and a headscarf or hijab, usually in red.
Wolf form: Resembles an Arabian wolf with dark, brown fur, that’s darker on her back and tail tip, and lighter beige on her stomach, ears and muzzle. Hala is smaller than her packmates, with larger ears, and a shorter thinner coat.
Conviction: Be Kind
LI: Marco
Alpha: Aliksander, deceased. Hala, current.
Misc. Info & Headcanons
Hala’s name means halo around the moon in Arabic, and her surname means daughter of the full moon.
Her mother’s name was Sama which means sky in Arabic.
Sama’s  pack originally came from a desert climate but like most werewolf packs they had to move to safer territories in other countries. 
Hala’s mother never saw the ocean in person until her late teens, and she learned to swim from Jay during their brief romance. Sama later taught Hala how to swim as a way to pass on something from Jay to their daughter, other than his eye color.
Hala has a caffeine dependency but prefers tea. After moving to the city Ed introduced her to boba tea and she got hooked.
Hala prefers not to drink alcohol due to disliking the taste. As a result Hala and Farro usually wind up as designated drivers whenever their packs meet up. 
Hala is prone to getting cold easily even in her wolf form. So she often dresses in layers and/or will cuddle with pack members for warmth.
Hala and her mom used to spend a lot of time in public libraries when they used to travel. They had free textbooks and resources to help with Hala’s education, and the nicer ones even offered free classes or activities for people. 
Hala learned to make jewelry at one of those libraries and even used to sell the things she made with her mom. After joining the pack Ed helps Hala sell her jewelry online, but she still gives out jewelry for friends and loved ones for free as gifts. As a result every member of the pack owns at least one piece of jewelry or customized accessories made by Hala.
Hala also does little arts and crafts projects with the kids when she is on babysitting duty. This instantly made Hala Izzy’s favorite person when Hala made her a tiara from an old wire hanger, some beads, and glitter.
As far as Hala’s own jewelry preferences go she tends to wear clip-on earrings, usually made of copper or nickel.
Hala’s mother used to own some gold bracelets from the old country that were originally going to be passed down to Hala as a bridal gift if she found a mate. After their pack died though Sama wound up pawning the gold bracelets to support herself and Hala.
Back when Hala was still a stray she used to go out in deep water to swim on nights when there is the full moon, that way she was less likely to hurt someone late at night in the middle of the ocean or lake. Worst case scenario she might swim too far from the shore, wind up exhausting herself and drown. Hala figured that was a better risk than giving into the moon and killing someone, the Alpha and Minjo however did not agree. They were both very distressed at how casually Hala explained that she first wound up in their pack’s territory because she got lost looking for a body of water deep enough to potentially drown herself. 
Hala still keeps her mother’s seashell necklace and wears it constantly. Jay made the necklace for Sama as a gift after their first date taking her on his bike to the coastline. 
Hala learned how to apply jacket patches from Addie and Elma.
Hala’s favorite jacket is a denim and fleece jacket that used to belong to Marco. He gave it to her shortly after she first joined the pack when he noticed she’s more sensitive to the cold, and told her to keep it because she looked cuter wearing it. She started developing a crush on Marco after that and added rose patches to the sleeves so she could always be reminded of Marco when she wears it.
While Hala didn’t become as close with Vicky as she did with Ed. She always respected and admired Vicky. Sure they don’t alway agree on things but Hala understands that sometimes you have to make the hard decisions, especially since Vicky had to become another parent for Ed growing up when she was still a kid herself. After becoming the Alpha Hala knows she can trust Vicky explicitly to keep the pack safe, but she’s also trying to make Vicky understand she can also depend on Hala and the others to help protect and look after her too.
After becoming the Alpha Hala takes different jobs and learns new skills to help the pack and their new home. She starts working at a craft store so the pack gets discounts on everything from school suplies to fabrics. She becomes a certified notary to help the pack when they need to verify important documents and paperwork. She even undergoes training in her wolf form to become a registered therapy dog. 
Likewise Hala tries to encourage and support her pack members with whatever they need. Like helping take care of Minjo’s kids if she eventually decides to complete her training to become an official registered nurse.

what you think about halima x fashion undustry drama
This anon sent this ask probably years ago😂
Well , since she's back ( I'm so glad) I did some research before reply , the explanation to her abrupt departure from the modeling world was due to how she felt that her modesty / hijab were compromised. Articles also reports that she would miss prayer times and given odd items to cover her head with , ( a pair of denim jeans). She assumed she did regret how she decided to verbalize her struggles , she had not intentions to sound like she wasn't grateful for the opportunity , it was a vulnerable moment. I am sure she wasn't confident enough back then to tell brands / magazines what they should do before hiring her as a model ( consult a Muslim stylist able to explain what can or cannot align with the values of a hijab for example)
her hijab is non-negotiable and she wants to emphasizes this point in her contract , would it makes her less active on the industry ? I'm guessing .
I'm proud of her , she's trying to live her dream , respecting her belief while brings the discussion of diversity within the fashion industry (once more) to the table all at once . I admire her for sure , If in the eye of her community she didn't respect her religion enough back then I think she was young enough to not take all the blame , ultimately , she represents a religion but she's an individual first , everyone makes mistakes as individuals, even the ones that judges her

Friday Favorites
This series is highly inspired by @akitasimblr’s Sunday Crushes. The difference is, instead of sharing 5 simblr favorites, I will share simblr stories, gameplays, mods and CCs that I have been enjoying particularly through the past week. Trying to keep a balance of everything, these are this Friday’s favorites for me.
Simblr stories
Meet Virginia by @happy-lemon has been one of my most favorite story/gameplays to follow this week. This series is mainly Sims 3 gameplay screenshots with a little writing, but it is the perfect balance. The small captions convey the message in a concise and effective way while the story overall deals with many deep topics such as addiction, mental health and relationship issues. There are not a lot of posts in it yet, so I’d recommend you catch up from the beginning if you haven’t.
Harper Legacy Twice by @akitasimblr, of course, Ana had to be on this list. This is an extension of her Harper Legacy where she is following the rules of the Ice Cream Legacy challenge. Grace Harper is the generation one of the ice cream legacy and if you don’t want to read everything from Harper’s Home, which should be a very good time however, you may want to start here to catch up with Grace’s shenanigans. This gorgeous serial romantic is getting into all sorts of relationship drama while exploring her personality more. I am sure you will fall in love with her no matter how much you hate to see her dump all the cute guys in Tartosa!
Script Mods
Tumblr media
This one is a mod which I am sure most of you are familiar with. But Lumpinou has just returned with a new version of Relationship and Pregnancy Overhaul. This is still in Beta, but the whole mod is now available to the public in 1 modular download and it's much better organized. I played around with module 16 (the new one) which is a dating app mod and loved every feature of it.
Just a disclaimer though, it is the Beta version of the mod and may contain bugs. You are advised to back up your saves before playing with it.
While playing around with it, my sim Kailee was matched with Dina Caliente. The date was very casual with no goals and the two just spent some time getting to know each other. Combined with mods like first impression and wonderful whims, this can be a very good dating solution for our sims.
Sims & Builds
Tumblr media
If you are wondering where Kailee took her date to, it’s this Desert Bloom Park by @simmer-rhi. This is a gameplay friendly park lot that doesn’t use a lot of packs and looks really pretty for screenshots. My favorite kinda lot, really. This is going in my main save file for sure.
Custom Content (Rapid Fire Round)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The marmalade skin blend by @mossylane, mostly because of the wrinkly versions.
This facepaint ombre color wheel by @simstrouble because it works with many hairs.
This DenUmm set by @mossylanee because you can never have too much denim!
This MARSStudio collection by @marsmerizing-sims because the scarves and hijab are just perfect!
P.S: Really sorry for misspelling @simstrouble's name on the graphic.

Khadija Saleh
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Character Lore:
Khadija Saleh is a cisgender Muslim girl of mixed Egyptian and Palestinian descent.
Her parents are immigrants from Egypt and Palestine respectively.
Despite being raised in a Muslim family, she identifies as a secular Muslim. Regardless, she still practices Islam and celebrates Muslim holidays. Khadija gets a lot of flack for not wearing her hijabs all the time, but she believes that it has nothing to do with being liberated. She makes it very clear that she has her right to choose whether she wants to wear the hijab.
Her favorite artists are the Spice Girls, Monica, Destiny's Child and Mariah Carey. Khadija is the biggest Mariah Carey fangirl of the team.
She is sweet, peaceful, and full of love, but also the most mature and practical out of all the Terrestrial Kids.
Khadija's fashion style is "stylish but modest." Whenever she's not wearing her hijabs, she prefers to wear sleeveless tops, skirts and/or denim shorts (with leggings underneath) and tons of gold jewelry. She also has a habit for wearing turtlenecks on her tops.
Her everyday fashion style also incorporates some elements from her mixed heritage. She is barely seen without a Palestinian keffiyeh added to her outfit.
Khadija identifies as a pansexual. She wants to have a girlfriend or a nonbinary partner of her own, but she wants to get her baba's permission first.
She likes to collect crystals and gemstones, and has a habit for collecting golden jewelry as well.
Khadija is trilingual in English, Arabic and Spanish. She was raised in a bilingual (Arabic/English) household.
She is the head of Westshore High's Event Committee and she is responsible for choosing for the themes for the school's pep rallies, proms, and spirit weeks. She is also a photographer for the school's yearbook.
Khadija celebrates Christmas with her friends, but not the Christian aspect of the holiday.
Khadija is Bailey/Bailynn's closest (human) friend at school. They two have known each other since middle school. With the two of them being science and technology nerds, Khadija is always rooting for Bailynn.. and her crazy ideas! She knows that Bailynn wants to help people in crisis and is desperate to bring about positive change to the world, even when she wants to welcome Jotuzons into Westshore.
Her hobbies include go-kart racing, surfing, and building gadgets. She wants to invent remote-control robots that can improve everyday life.
She likes to bond with Sprite by going out to beach and surfing with Sprite swimming beneath the waves.
Khadija always looks forward to eating Bailynn's homemade Chocolate Chip pancakes for when Bailynn is hosting a sleepover at her house.
She has a DIY robot companion that assists her and helps with her everyday chores at home.
Khadija was slightly terrified of the Jotuzons at first, but she grows to be fascinated by their graceful, feminine energy and mighty strength.
Khadija's biggest dream is to invent advanced gadgets that can help their owners with their everday lives.

How to Style Traditional Saudi Clothing for Modern Looks?
Traditional Saudi clothing, such as the Thobe, Abaya, and Hijab, has a rich cultural and religious value. However, with the increasing globalization and fusion of cultures, many people are looking for ways to style traditional Saudi clothing for modern looks. 
Tumblr media
Here are some tips on doing so while still respecting and honouring the cultural significance of these garments.
Mix and Match with Contemporary Pieces: Mixing and matching traditional Saudi clothing with contemporary pieces is one way to modernize it. For example, you can pair a thobe with a denim jacket or a leather belt or style an abaya with sneakers or ankle boots. This creates a unique and stylish look that blends traditional and modern elements.
Experiment with Colors and Patterns: While traditional Saudi clothing is often associated with neutral colours such as black, white, and beige, there is no reason why you can’t experiment with colours and patterns to create a modern look. Try pairing a brightly coloured hijab with a neutral thobe or abaya or layering different ways to make a bold statement.
Accessorize with Jewelry and Scarves: Accessorizing is a great way to add a personal touch to your traditional Saudi clothing and create a modern look. For example, add a statement necklace or earrings to your outfit or wrap a colourful scarf around your neck or head. This adds a pop of colour and texture to your outfit, making it more interesting.
Embrace Different Fabrics: Traditional Saudi clothing is often made of lightweight fabrics such as cotton or linen to keep the wearer cool in hot weather. However, you can experiment with different materials to create a more modern look. For example, you can wear a thobe made of silk or satin for a more luxurious look or pair an abaya with a leather or denim jacket to add a touch of edge.
Don't be Afraid to Customize: Feel free to customize your traditional Saudi clothing to create a modern look that reflects your style. For example, you can add embroidery or beading to a thobe or abaya to make it more unique or alter the length or shape of the garment to suit your body type.
In conclusion, styling traditional Saudi clothing for modern looks can be fun and creative while respecting these garments' cultural and religious significance. Mixing and matching with contemporary pieces, experimenting with colours and patterns, accessing jewellery and scarves, embracing different fabrics, and customizing your outfits will create a stylish and modern look that reflects your personality and individuality.
