What do I do if I want to look cute but I have strict parents?
What do I do if I want to look cute (both with my clothes and with my body) but I have strict parents who doesn't allow me to get new clothes, wear makeup, or add things to my outfits? My parents won't get me new clothes, won't let me wear makeup, and they won't allow me to add things to my clothes. All the clothes I have are either shabby, boyish, or just not cute. I also don't have any makeup or lip gloss; the only thing I have is an eyelash curler. I prefer girly, cute, aesthetic looks, but my parents just won't let me!

If you want to feel cute and aesthetic while dressing modestly, a great place to start for outfit inspiration is Pinterest or TikTok. Try searching for “modest outfit inspiration” or “hijabi outfit ideas,” save or screenshot your favorites, and use what you already have in your wardrobe to recreate similar looks. If you’re missing a few pieces, you could check your local secondhand stores for affordable options or ask family and friends if they’d be open to swapping or lending items from their closets.

you can alter your clothes, if you alter a pai of jean shorts, you can turn it into a jean skirt. also you can crop your shirts, (if your comfortable with that) and you can make your own lip gloss, if you have chapstick, you can melt it and mix in a bit of color, like a bit of food dye. pour it back into the chapstick container and you wil have tinted chapstick. there are other things you can do too! i hope i helped! ⭐
