HOW TO WEAR HIJAB STYLES : PASHMINA HIJABS
One of the readers here, Alia, wanted to know how to wear the pashmina hijab style. I was able to find a video demonstrating how to wear it. The video is by a YouTuber called Caramelle47. Check it out below and let me know what you think.
Tutorial: [...]
[Note: With this article I am trying to show that wearing hijab in and of itself will not cause hair loss. If you experience hair loss or breakage upon starting to wear hijab, there are underlying reasons (as listed below) that cause your hair loss and breakage. Please also see the comments to this post [...]
HIJAB STYLE REMIX
This Hijab Style Remix features Rachel Bilson in an easy, casual look that’s pretty modest as it is. To make the look more hijab friendly, I added wider-legged jeans, a longer undershirt (for more coverage in the front), and of course a black hijab. Since I prefer to be a little more polished, [...]
HIJABS DU JOUR : PYTHON PRINTS
In this edition of Hijabs Du Jour, I’m featuring the “wildly popular” python print trend. Ok, so I’m being a little corny! But, the trend is really hot right now and I was able to find a number of hijabs that work back to it.
I already have a nice python [...]

HIJABS DU JOUR : MINI FLORALS
After an odd week of snow, the air smelled like Spring here on the East Coast today — and that has me in the mood to start talking about Spring fashion trends!
Up first, is the Liberty-like mini floral print trend. What would Spring be without flowers, right? This season designers [...]

HIJAB ESSENTIALS : NORMA KAMALI for WALMART
I don’t check Walmart.com as often as I probably should. Like Target, Walmart has started to collaborate with well-known fashion designers to create affordable collections for the masses.
Right now, they are selling some fabulously affordable Hijab Essentials that are designed by Norma Kamali and I’m about to go to [...]
HIJAB Q&A : IMITATING THE “DISBELIEVERS”
[UPDATE: I will continue this post later on inshallah because I am too busy to sit and write it right now. Sorry for the delay.]
Rather than continuing with my post entitled “Is Hijab Overrated Part 1?“, I am going to start addressing the questions about hijab that I receive from [...]
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 [...]
MODERN ISLAMIC CLOTHING DESIGNER : ARTIZARA
One of my goals is to create my own line of Islamic clothing in the future, inshallah. I love the behind-the-scenes side of fashion just as much as I love the clothes, so last week I caught up with Helen of Artizara.com to find out more about their modern Islamic [...]
HIJAB STYLE STEAL: ECLECTIC CHIC
I came across the picture on the right online and I love the way the Muslimah is mixing textures, prints, and colors to create her unique look.
My outfit is a little less daring than hers because I was going for a more sophisticated look. I guess the idea is that [...]
In this series of videos, a Muslimah called TheAmericanTurk uses a Barbie doll to demonstrate different ways to wear hijab. As someone who doesn’t like to be on camera, I can appreciate using a doll to show how to wear hijab. But at the same time, I used to find it annoying to do hairstyles [...]
