Hijabi City Walk Style

Salaam ladies! Today I'm going for a city look. Many hijabis that live in the major cities of the U.S obviously have style! This is a post dedicated to them! I went for a fresh, easy style. The colors of black and blue are perfect winter colors. Of course we wouldn't use the sandals for the ladies that live in the cold states, but a pair of black boots would complete the look!

The hijab could be wrapped so that the earrings are shown, or you could opt to keep them for an indoor look. Enjoy! May Allah bless & reward us all. ~ Nisa

Gray Simplicty

Today is a rainy day. :( So I created this outfit to reflect the dramatic turn of the weather. Alhamdulilah for the rain though, it keeps the weather slightly cool. We haven't had too many really hot days this summer, and where I live it usually gets pretty hot! Allahu akbar, he answered my du'as! :D

This style would be great worn to work or to the masjid for classes. It's so cute that I think I'm pretty confident that I could pull it off, the only difference is that it would be in brown though. Imagine that lacy hijab over an under scarf? Just imagine yourself in this outfit! I'm really in love with it! May Allah bless and guide us all! ~Nisa

Minty Beach Wear

For a summer trip I would really like to take a trip to the closest beach. The closest one that I know of is a man-made beach, and I guess that is good enough. I would still like the real deal though. I haven't been to a beach in a very long time, and the last time I went I was little. So, maybe one of these weekends when the masjid classes are closed I can ask my dad. Atleast before the summer ends. Just a day trip. Probably unlikely because I am so active in my masjid this summer! Insha allah, the masjid is going to Six Flags on Eid so we are raising money. Anyway, I created an outfit of what I would wear to the beach;

I would try to wear something similar to that, and I'd try to find a Kiwi smoothie too. I would go shopping just to find an outfit like that. To me it just says "I'm going to the beach today!". Insha allah, one day we will go...but for now I will just be content with going to the river. :) May Allah bless and guide us all! ~Nisa

Just a little athletic

*Bismilallah*

My all time favorite easy-to-wear pants are sweat pants. They just slip on, and they look really cute under a big shirt! It's casual, and easy to move it. I use the treadmill every other day, and I own about two pairs of sweat pants. A gray pair and a blue pair. It beats wearing big jeans on the treadmill. My sister wonders at how I can get up in the early in the morning (directly after Fajr) and look through my closet for clothes to wear. I said, "anything for fashion!" Lol. So yeah, basically if I am feeling lazy and it's my day to do the treadmill, sweat pants are a fruity life saver. So, I created this outfit:

I'm not so sure about the big bead necklace if you're going to be doing some serious running (eight miles per hour anyone?). Opting for a bracelet instead is probably the safest alternative. You don't want to be knocked in the head while performing your epic dashing skills, now do you? ;) Also, the hijab could probably be used to cover Hello Kitty on the front. I just thought it was a really cute sweater. :) May Allah bless and guide us all! - Nisa

Aye Heejabbers!

*Bismiallah*

This outfit is totally ridiculous, but if you're a fan of pirates you'll like it. To be quite honest, I'd probably wear it if I had the right stuff. Then again, people might think that I'm a walking terrorist pirate. Hahaha. Oh the imagined looks of horror are hilarious! 

The only thing I would not wear is the seemingly zebra patterned purse. I'd opt for a black or white messenger bag. Or, you could weild a sword! Yar har har! May Allah bless & guide us all! -Nisa

Hijabi Style: I smell like strawberries!

*Bismiallah*

I mean seriously, who doesn't love strawberries? I know I do, and they are one of my favorite fruits. There is nothing like biting into a really cold strawberry on a summer day. I know, shoot me. It's slightly stereotypical, but thats how I feel about strawberries. They are delicious! Not only are they good, but they are an excellent source of vitamin C! NO, I am not talking about that fattening, sugar loaded Strawberry Icecream in your local grocery store freezer. Don't even think about it. The more sugar you add, the less benefit. 

Anyways, I created an outfit on polyvore themed with strawberries awhile ago. Hijabi style, of course! 

I really love those slips and that cute little sweater. I believe I have pants similar to those in my closet. Should be easy to find since I keep all of my pants neatly on hangers. My closet is a neat freaks dream. Haha. :) YES, I know about not wearing nail polish. I put it there for fun, but it can be utilized during that time of the month. I personally wouldn't wear the red hijab, I would probably opt for a white. Sisters, this outfit is so easy to do so try it! Find options if you can't find the exact item! If you like it, click on the picture and fave it! May Allah bless & guide us all! ~ Nisa

The Hijab

* Bismiallah *

Asalam wa alaykum! Doesn't Barbie look just beautifuil in Hijab? I wish that as a Muslim living in America I could find real, actual hijab clothing for Barbie dolls. Now, don't get the impression that I still play with Barbie dolls, cause I don't. My sister and I stopped playing with them a long time ago. However,I think real barbie hijabi clothes would make such a nice gift for the girls in my community. The way they dress Barbie these days is so icky. It may be for the "lastest" fashion, but it is so not appealing. It is just a horrible source of inspiration for young girls. I remember when I played with Barbie dolls, I always tried to choose the most modest clothing (there were hardly any), because I felt that my Barbie doll "Mommies" shouldn't dress in high skirts, tube tops, and go-go boots. It just didn't look right.

 Even when I did go to buy the seperate clothing packs, they would never be "good" enough. So, I resorted to making long skirts out of pieces of fabric that I had originally bought to sew a shawl with on my sewing machine.  The doll that I loved the most though was Midge from the Happy Family line (now off the shelves). They DRESSED her pretty decently. Midge is now stashed in the basement with her husband, mother, and two kids. Lol.  I just wish they would start dressing the dolls like they have some sense, and stop influncing little kids that dressing like you-know-what's is "in", because it's just nasty.

Awhile ago, I found this video on Youtube as I was researching Hijab. I love it! The woman is having a conversation with herself about Hijab. It's a really nice video, and I think that every Muslimah should see it. Go here on Youtube to see it. I can't figure out how to add the video directly to the page, but Insha allah I will figure it out sooner or later. May Allah reward & guide us all. ~ Nisa
