I just skimmed on The Top Ten Collections of this decade and found that one of the decade's most groundbreaking shows is Balenciaga Fall 2007. And the looks above are from the show.

I love the looks because of their bold structures and colors. The 'color play' and a 'mix texture' embellished with trims and fur pulled the looks up more fabulous.

Style Notes: Bold color jacket matched with khaki pants; embellished-trims or fur collars; gray socks paired with colorful shoes; a matching belt and a statement scarf.

Color-blocked heels from Christian Louboutin with pretty bows (showed in London Fashion Week, Sept. 2010) would match perfectly with these looks:

Style Tips from Asma of Haute Muslimah

One of blogs I love is Asma's blog, titled Haute Muslimah. I love most of picked-up styles she put on her blog, from celeb's or runway Haute Couture... very inspiring and fabulous. Recently, Asma sent me her top tips in style that she'd like to share to all Fashioning Faith's readers. She also gave a bit words on what Haute Muslimah is all about.

According to Asma,
"At Haute Muslimah, Muslim women can find ideas on how to wear clothes, where to buy them, and how to put them together. It's a place to find trends, and items you see on the runway and in high fashion, and how to incorporate those pieces of clothing into their Islamic lives."
So, visit Haute Muslimah to check out more 'haute' on Muslimah style! :)

And here are a few style tips from Asma:

-Keep your look as simple as you can.
You want to look unfussy. Many hijabis just layer and layer so many clothes together that it loses any sense of style or elegance. Try to keep layering to a minimum, unless it's winter :)
-Be creative with hijabs and the way you wear them. Use hijab pins and bands around your hijab to pull your look together.
-You don't have to be matchy matchy with everything in your closet. Your shoes, belt, bag, and hijab do not have to all match. Try wearing colors that compliment each other well.
-My personal favorite: Keep a variety of cardigans in your closet for all occasions. Simple ones, fancy ones, light and heavier ones as well. They'll come in handy as a cute cover-up.

Want to share your style tips too? Just send in your advice and tips, photos, or anything to do with Muslimah style that inspires you to: fashioningfaith@gmail.com
Hope it would be helpful for other Muslimahs! :)

Inside Fashion Tips: How To Walk in Heels

I remembered my previous post recently about unique heels on New York Fashion Week September 2010, when I showed you some fabulous heels but I wasn't sure I can walk wearing them without twisting my ankles or not... ;) Yes, I'm serious! I used to wear flats, low kitten heels, low thick heels, sandals, or sport shoes. As far as I know, as muslimah we can wear high heels as long as the heels do not make such a loud sound (noisy) when they are wore to walk.

This is some inside fashion information I found from InStyle.com on how to walk in heels. Hope this would be useful for you who have been dreaming of wearing high heels... like me! ;)
