I like the colour of her scarf and the way she made it but I think some looser pants or a long skirt would look better and more modest. Love the shoes!
Mashallah the outfit is great. Us sister should not be too judgmental, the sister may of have just started to practice. We all started off from somewhere! :)
good style, love the smart blazer with casual clothes, tho id keep the blazer open, since its makin her look top heavy...n i agree looser clothin is called for, but i also agree we all start somewhere...few ppl cn do the whole thing straight up n not retreat bk in few yrs
To "anonymous" - I dont think it is very nice to say: "the sister may of have just started to practice" Why coz her jacket is short and her jeans tight, that means she is only starting?? I know sisters that are pious and have good iman and do not wear hijab. Yes, hijab is good, but none of us knows what is in another's heart, do we? Being judgemental like this is not an attractive or an Islamic feature.
@ Kathleeniti I think what the sister meant by "the sister may have just started to practice" is that she just started practicing wearing hijab,not practicing Islam. I could be wrong though=)
Trousers are ridiculous! Huh that's not very nice! I like the jeans. They looks similar to a pair I bought from h&M. Sis your whole outfit rocks! Don't listen to any of these haterz! Salam
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.

i love the jacket :) Rock on
She's sweet masha-Allah. I love her outfit just the half above. I agree with anon on the lower part.
mashAllah I love your blazer!
Yes, a long, straight skirt over the pants would be very nice and not change the look very much at all. The idea, however, is great masha'Allah!
Very stylish her outfit rocks!

I like the outfit in theory, and I love purple, but I'm not sure why she tucked the scarf into her pants. anyone?
