Ooh, ooh, ooh! Very nice! Just a wee bit more neck coverage and it's just perfect! Now if I could just find out what Spittin' Light is, that all these cool people turned out for it???
I admire this kind of talent for matching colors. It would never have occurred to me that an orangeish scarf would coordinate with this deep red color, but it looks so much better than if she had worn a scarf the same color as the dress. I wonder what makes it work so well.
Hijabs High is inspired by the stylish and dynamic global community of Muslim women who fuse their identities and pronounce their place in the world everyday through beauty and fashion.
It is my hope that this blog inspires, motivates and encourages Muslims and non-Muslims alike to revisit their perceptions of the "look" of Muslim women who wear the veil and encourage us all to be a little bit more fabulous.
To the chic gang of Hijabs High photographers - you know who you are - thanks for doing it all with grace and panache. :)
Finally, Hijabs High owes a debt to The Sartorialist, who first helped focus our cameras on the everyday. Thank you.
