My name is Amena. I'm 26 years old, and live in the UK. I work as a part-time Biology teacher at a college.
My Style
My personal style is "Boho chic", I'd say. I enjoy accessorising with flowery headbands, pins and necklaces. I also like to use loose, flowing scarves and enjoy experimenting with different colours. I like to push my fashion limits and experiment with different styles, coupling different types of clothing together to ensure I remain modest and pairing clothes from different shops. I'm not much of a "designer" clothing person, but I do enjoy wearing all sorts of different clothing styles and wouldn't mind a few designer items in my wardrobe!
This might make me a bit uncool, but I LOVE wearing PJ's! Outside of the home, one of my favourite things to wear are elegant dresses to parties.
I'm inspired by colour and also makeup, so I often match my scarves to my makeup if I'm going out. The accessories I use are head bands, necklaces, rings, bracelets - anything girly! I love the colour purple. But, I enjoy wearing all colours. I give myself challenges to make up outfits and different styles based on different colours and fabrics.
Top Tip
My number one style tip is, if you live in a fairly cold country, to layer your clothes to achieve a modest look when it's difficult with some of the clothes sold in high street stores.
