Celebrity Style Steal..Yassmin Mohsen
Young Egyptian model Yassmin Mohsen is my next style steal, her layered tees and colourful style is lovely and individual with just a hint of Egypt :D Here are some pics I dug up, most were taken by photographer Ahmed Abou-Zeid:
Pink and purple, so cute and girly ^-^
I wish I knew how they get their hijabs like that! Egyptians have such cool wrap styles:
Ahh traditional Arab style, I love it :D
Here's a set I made a while back inspired by traditional Arabic dress:Hmm, I'm not too sure about the next two though..
If you've read my previous post you'll know exactly how I feel about wearing a long sleeved top under a short sleeve dress, it's a fashion disaster. Don't do it to yourself, boleros all the way!
And the next..

Well animal print may be big this spring but this outfit is just not for me, thumbs down. Ohh, I heart this next one though! Long high waisted skirts are so cute but they're difficult to get hold of..
As it's her beloved style, I thought I'd put in a set inspired but the wonderful land of multi wrap hijabs:

It's Quite Cold..
Anyone who is in the UK right now will know it's cold cold cold and very snowy. As it's expected to last the whole week, we had better get wrapped up warm so no maxis or cotton hijabs for now then, say hello to snoods and snow boots..Snowy Outfit - by Zaenab
Have fun in the snow! :D

ASOS Day Dresses ^-^

You can see I heart ditsy floral print :D (The waist band of that second one is adjustable from the back so I wear it much looser and with a cardigan on top.) Here are some other ASOS dresses from the sale section I certainly wouldn't wrinkle my nose at:
Get shopping at ASOS here!

Pink Hijabs: Immodest..?
I came across this forum earlier talking about pink hijab day, mainly males saying pink hijabs were immodest and the whole idea of a pink hijab day was, and I quote, 'gay'. I've never never read such a whole load of rubbish in my life. Anyway, there was a poll where 44% thought that pink hijabs were immodest, 28% thought they weren't and rest were undecided. I mean there's one thing saying a skin tight pink dress coupled with a tiny little bright pink scarf and 6 inch pointy heels isn't hijab but to think that all pink headscarves are immodest is ludicrous and quite frankly makes me mad to think it was some stuck up man who wears want he wants that said it. On top of this, they completely ignore the fact that the whole point of pink hijab day is to raise money for breast cancer awareness, grrrrr! To prove these ignorant, judgmental people wrong, here are some pretty, pink and modest hijabs:
Soo cute, I love this dusty shade of pink, I want that scarf!
Pink shamaghs all the way!
Smart hijabi, all in pink and still modest:
Muna's back, in pink of course and a cool tie-dye headscarf:
A very pretty and modest malay hijab:
And a pink prayer outfit for good measure, wonderful!
And lastly, a pink hijab outfit I made just for the occasion:Hope you all like pink hijabs too! :D

3 Ways To Wear A Maxi Dress
We all love a maxi dress, but that doesn't mean they are easy to wear especially while keeping them modest and stylish at the same time - sometime I see people who have kept the modesty and ditched the style and sometimes it's the other way around. Well enough I say! Here are 3 simple ways to dress a maxi:

Hope you liked my maxi tips! :D21 January 2009
Hijabifying the almost un-hijabifyable
..and here is the finished look, I've used high boots because the skirt is mid-calf length and coupled it with a long, loose cardigan for an up to the minute style which will also cover up you accentuated waist ^-^

Indian Hijab Style
The colourful world of India is where we're going for the next instalment of around the world hijab style. Although similar to Pakistani fashion which I have already done a post on, there are some key differences between the two countries trends. 
Aw, I wonder why they're sad.. at least their hijabs are nice though, I love polka dots!
This has to be my fave pic, the colours are wonderful and that bright orange dress is great for the beach:
Indian Hijab Styles
One scarf, 3 styles from 3 Indian school girls:
I found quite a few Indian hijab photos so I have put the nicest ones together:
I really like the loosely wrapped goldy coloured one too, so pretty ^-^ And last but not least, Muslimah pals praying together, cute hijabs!
This post was done by the request of JaLpArI, hope you liked it! :D

A Song and Dance..and a Hijab: Love it or Shove it?
I never knew there were so many hijabi singers in the world, but apparently there are and I'm a tiny, tiny bit surprised. I'm not singling out hijabis, I think Muslims in general should steer quite clear of singing careers. Obviously there's the whole nasheed thing that you have to bear in mind but singing as an actual career choice is not something I really approve of.. but maybe that's because of the way I have been brought up as it doesn't really have that much of a religious basis. But Islam does encourage humans to do useful work for their society, singing is not a useful job in my opinion. 


Now, I am quite an open minded person and I hate saying that this is "haram or that is bida or you're a kaffir" at the end of the day everyone has logic and that's what they will be judged by however, I really think hijab is not just a bit of cloth or an extra layer of clothing.
