HIJAB ESSENTIALS : CARDIGANS

Cardigans are a huge trend for this year’s spring days and summer nights. But for hijab-wearing women, they are year-round wardrobe essentials. I love cardigans because, like blazers, they provide a polished finish to my sleeveless outfits, yet they are more comfy and easy to wear than most jackets.

The cardigan featured in this Hijab Essentials outfit is from Old Navy – which currently has several different colors, prints, and styles of cardigans to choose from. The prices start at just under $10, so head to your local ON or the online store to check them out before they’re all gone!

[1] Crew-Neck Cardigan – Black, $29.50. [2] Cinch-Waist Sundress – Atomic Purple, $29.50. [3] Pashmina Hijab, $9.95. [4] Mid-Rise Boot-Cut “The Flirt” Jeans, $25. [5] Nine West Mane Platform Pumps, $29.99+.

I love it, the printed cardigan is brilliant idea!

What material would you say is best? I don’t like the thick ones because you can’t wear them in the summer time. I have a 100% cotton cardigan that is pretty cool in the summer….

Thanks for your compliments ladies! :-)

@Fud: I would definitely say that silk or 100% cotton are best. The ones at Old Navy are 100% cotton so they should be great for summer.

This is pure genius, mash’allah, pure genius. I remember how you like purple and black :-) It gives a very charming effect IMHO, and I would absolutely wear this. I’m going to see what I can go do with some similar items in my closet. I would not have thought of this on my own.

im in love with cardigans this year, SO much better than the structured jacket IMO, other good fabrics are jersey and modal

Thanks Sarah, Aisha, and Norsiah! :-)

@Pumpnar: You’re right! I forgot about jersey and modal… Old Navy has some buttonless jersey cardigans on sale now that would be really great for summer… But I prefer to have at least one button on my cardis so I didn’t buy any.

welovehijab. i went to old navy and i was SO mad that all the long sleeve shirts that i use to put under my short sleeves or sleeveless shirts were GONE!!!! so i had to go online, where they still had them, and order that way. i dont like cardigans with buttons on them, or anything with buttons :P buttons are my enemy lol
