HAUTE HIJAB STYLE : SNAKESKIN

HIJAB STYLE : ACCESSORY FILE
From golden bangles to chunky chains and cocktail rings, there’s nothing like a great piece of jewelry to finish off an outfit.

WE LOVE HIJAB LOVES : WORKWEAR BY SETRMS UK
Every woman has an I’ve-got-nothing-to-wear-to-work day now and then. But, I think that Muslim women have it the hardest. Why? Because we have to find clothes that are clean, professional and modest enough to wear to work – and then we’ve got to find a hijab to [...]

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 [...]

HIJAB FASHION TRENDS OF 2008
The Winter Garden trend is next up on my list of the Top Fashion Trends of 2008. I love this trend because it’s all about femininity… flowers, paisley, and rich embellishments on a darker, wintery color palette.
The silk maxi dress that I chose to illustrate this trend is definitely not an [...]

Lace is up next on my list of the Top Fashion Trends of 2008. Every girly-girl needs a little lace in her wardrobe; and while there are plenty of lacy clothes in stores, many of them look too much like lingerie to be worn outdoors.

Dubai Street Style
A recent edition of Current TV’s Street Style series featured Dubai fashionistas. There were only a couple hijabis featured and although their clothing may have been too snug for me, it’s always cool to see hijab fashion videos in my opinion.
