HOW TO WEAR HIJAB AND DUPATTA:
BEAUTY WITH HIJAB
Hijab Style Finds: Ribbed Long Cardigan/Sweatercoat
Today’s Hijab Style Find is a hijab style essential in my opinion. It’s a long cardigan that has big buttons — which I love — and a ribbed texture which makes it just a bit more casual. This long cardi comes in four festive colors, all at around $20 each — depending on what size you need.
Hijab Style Tip:
They’re calling this sweater a “boyfriend cardigan” — which usually means that the sweater fits really loosely. But, as you can see in the pic, this particular cardigan is slim cut. It also has a very deep V-neckline, so you’ll have to be a bit careful about what you wear it with.
I would suggest wearing it open over very full and flowy items, like a cotton maxi dress. HINT: This is a great way to take your summer dresses into the Fall & Winter seasons! Unless you want to fidget with your hijab all day to make sure that your chest is covered properly, you’ll want to wear a tank top underneath of your dress as well if the dress is also low-cut. Or you could wear a large hijab and wrap it in such a way that it would cover you enough.Hijab Style Tip:

What Not to Wear à la Hijab
This is the first of a new WE LOVE HIJAB segment that many people have been requesting: a hijabi version of What Not To Wear. In these posts I’m going to be your Trinny & Susannah, and Clinton & Stacey. And I’m going to show you What Not To Wear (or how to wear things that you normally couldn’t)!

Up first, are sheath dresses. Sheath dresses are a really big trend right now, but they’re not hijab-fashion friendly for a couple of reasons:
[1] They’re tight.
[2] They’re short.
[3] They’re sleeveless (usually).
For these reasons, I wouldn’t normally recommend sheath dresses to a hijabi, BUT, there is one thing about these dresses that makes them wearable. The length. Sheath dresses are usually mid-thigh length, which makes them great underthings when you’re wearing longer blazers and cardigans. Check out the look below and tell me, are you feeling sheath dresses?
