OOTD: Tatton Park

Salaams :)

I thought I would do an outfit of the day post for you. My husband and I went to Tatton Park, partially because we're bored sitting in the house and partially because they had a Beatrix Potter exhibition. Most of her original watercolour paintings and writing are so fragile, they can only be shown once every 10 years. I felt very blessed to be able to see them, alhamdulillah. My only regret is I wasn't allowed to take photos :(

This is my outfit:
Scarf: Lazydoll (reviewed in my last post)
Cardigan: New Look
Top: Primark
Jeans: Warehouse
Shoes: Converse
Bag: Clarks

 This is my husband (bored) and me, so you can see a close up of the Lazy Doll Scarf

Lazy Doll Review

Salaams   :)

I know I said I'd make the next post on styling abayas, but to be honest I haven't had chance to put the effort into the post that I wanted to. So I'm going to do a review post instead. 

I'm a massive fan of Dina Tokio, the youtuber and blogger. Her style isn't always to my taste but she is very creative with her clothes and always looks modest and stylish. She has her own company, www.lazydoll.com, selling reworked and original vintage clothes and hand dyed hijabs. I've wanted one of her hijabs for so long but they sell out super quick. However, this time I was able to purchase 'Leyobard Plue', alhamdulillah. 

If I was a professional, I would've took photos of the packaging. I'm not, and I was too excited to be taking photos of packaging. It came neatly packaged in a grey plastic wrapping with the scarf in a clear plastic wrapping inside, for those who are interested. The dispatch was also very fast. The only niggle I would have is the postage fee of £4, which I thought was a bit pricey.

This is the scarf:

The blue colour is an amazingly bright colour, it looks amazing and its huge. The measurements are: L180cms, W110cms. Perfect for doing folds and drapes with. I wore mine folded back so the blue was peeking out from underneath. I will be putting photos of me wearing it on my instagram: http://instagram.com/naomiearly

I've already washed it (by hand) and it came out really well. The colour didn't fade or run, the material is really soft and it didn't snag with pins in it. It also hasn't snagged with cat claws and the material is so soft, my cats love to snuggle it: 

This was my attempt at photo reviews with my able assistant

Overall, I loved it and will definatly be buying more when the store is updated :)
