Congratulations Vanessa! Your gorgeous look won the Eid Hijab Styles contest and I’ll be sending you this pretty pink, black & white hijab.


Thank you to all of the other lovely contestants (even those who were not posted for one reason or another), and thank you to everyone who voted.


Now it’s time for the next giveaway. Stay tuned for details!

EID HIJAB STYLES : HASLINA

The Hijabi:
Haslina, 28

Occupation:
Singapore

The Look:
A beautiful abaya, silky hijab, and brooch.

I love it because…
rather than wearing a plain abaya, Haslina wore one with decorative green accents. Very festive!

What I’d change…
Nothing, at all. This look is very modest and elegant… And I really want that abaya!

EID HIJAB STYLES : TAMEEKA

The Hijabi:
Tameeka, 25

Occupation:
Clerk/Student

The Look:
Gray skirt, silky patterned top with ruffles, ombre hijab.

I love it because…
the black, yellow, gray, and white colors are really elegant. I also like the fact that she found a way to show the ruffled neckline on her top whilst wearing hijab.

What I’d change…
Nothing, really. This look is a nice example of modern hijab style.

EID HIJAB STYLES : AMNA

The Hijabi:
Amna, 24

Location:
Canada

Occupation:
Stay-at-home Mom

The Look:
Maxi dress by Gypsy 05, tee, large bangles, and a fringy hijab.

I love it because…
of the cool blue and green color palette… Very ocean-esque as we move into Fall. BTW: Kudos to Amna’s sister for the lovely photography!

What I’d change…
I like this look, but I’d do one or two things in order to make it a little bit more modest for my taste. I’d either wear a bigger hijab and push down the sleeves on the tee for more body coverage, or I’d wear a cardigan over the dress.

EID HIJAB STYLES : SAFAA

The Hijabi:
Safaa, 27

Location:
Canada

The Look:
Short dress, denim trousers (aka trouser jeans), cardigan, hijab, silver accessories.

I love it because…
of the neutral color palette. The colors work well together and for those hijabis who are afraid of wearing white scarves, this look is quite inspirational. I also love the paisley print on the dress. Very cute!

What I’d change…
I can’t tell if it’s the dress or the way she’s standing, but I might choose a dress that’s a-line shaped so that it’s looser on the bottom. Other than that, I really like this look.

EID HIJAB STYLES : THE JEANS

Today’s Eid Hijab Styles post is for those of you who love, love, love wearing jeans. I don’t think that jeans are a no-no for Eid. As long as you wear a pair of dark wash jeans – rather than light or faded ones – and pair them with dressier pieces, your outfit will be very Eid-appropriate.

For my collage, I paired a nice wide leg jean with a silk dress (go up a size for a looser fit on this one!). To make the look a little more fancy, I added a pretty teal hijabs, a triple-strand pearl bracelet, and a cocktail ring – because they’re my favorite.

What do you think? Would you wear jeans for Eid?

EID HIJAB STYLES : THE FANCY LITTLE DRESS

If you’re anything like me, you’re getting started a little late on your Eid outfit shopping. Over the next few days, I’ll be posting some Eid Hijab Styles that will give you a variety of ideas on how to dress up for the upcoming Eid.

Up first is the Fancy Little Dress. Fancy mini dresses are very pretty and very easy to modify in order to create hijab-approved looks. To create your outfit, choose a fancy dress in a bright color or one that has some sort of embellishment on it. I chose a blush-brown dress that has sequins and ruching detail on it.

Next, throw on a bunch of black! A black hijab, black dress pants, a fancy black shoe, and a black cardigan for arm coverage. Add an interesting cocktail ring and you’re all set.

This is an easy and effortless way to get dressed because you probably already have many of these items in your closet. As always, you can find the featured items in the links section below. – And don’t mind the prices; you can find similar items for any budget at your favorite store or website.
