Pleats on pleats

Asalaam aleikum loves, Eid was good? Yea, mine too alhamdulilah. Pleats are in right now, Has anyone else noticed? I'm not so big on following trends but i make exceptions when the fabric feels like silk on you, besides pleats

were always in right?. I am wearing a custom made two piece set that was inspired by my cousin (Hey yas!) I made her an Eid abaya with this pleated fabric and she bought lace to make it seem more chic and i decided to make one for myself but something more my style. Coordinated sets are also in right now btw, i'm quite the trendy girl lately huh. What i love about a coordinated outfit is that it requires zero effort coz you know, it's already paired perfectly. I wore a navy hijab with it because i could not find my black hijab but it didn't turn out too bad, in fact, it broke the black and maroon monotony i was going for lol. How cool are my shoes though.

Life update, i don't have an office job anymore, my contract ended last week, i'm not even mad about it because i was forced out of a comfort zone and now i get to look for something else,on my own. But here's the weirdest part, i can't decide if i should do my masters and get another 9-5 job or run with blogging and my fashion business as a hustle. On one hand, the second option is so "living the dream" but on the other hand i didn't spend 20years in school to not get the 'fruits' of that. I was a pretty good student btw, the type that would read and do all the right things, my ideal was a job at the UN and live happily ever after. lol. Now, i'm a creative apparently and i want to design, write and do photography, what is life? I will let you know what i decide on in shaa Allah, maybe i can do both and have the best of both worlds right?

Side note: why does the image quality on pictures reduce like this on the blog. Urgh.
