International street style from fabulous hijabistas - "Hold your hijabs high!"
Welcome
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.

It's Caraboska!
Yaaa Cara!
Indeed! :D:D:D
Nice picture and cute smile! :)
Yemenese like outfit..am i right??
Best wishes :)
PS I notice you have 'Muslim' in the labels for this post. So no one misunderstands, I recently began covering full-time, while continuing to be a Christian (as I have been for nearly 30 years - I'm a lot older than I look). So maybe we could tweak the labels accordingly?
faraula, Between you and me, I have no idea if my outfit is Yemeni or not :) Probably not though. The trousers, mini-dress, cowboy boots and belt came from 'normal' shops in Poland and the United States; the jacket, skirt and (invisible) long-sleeved shirt under the dress came from thrift shops in Poland, and all elements of the head covering were bought on E-bay. People here in Poland often seem to think the outfit is Indian.
so caraboska r u a muslim or a head covering christian??? im jus tryin to understand the comment u wrote:D
I must say you are very talented and hilarious :) I really like your outfit..
Nice to finally put a face to your cmments lol ;)

Dani, I'm a head-covering Christian.
Faraula, Thank you and masha'Allah.
Anonymous, Punjabi, you say? So maybe that's why so many people here seem to think it's Indian...

WOW!;D MY HOMELAND AND MY BIRTH CITY!!!;-)))) MY LOVELY KRAKÓW!;-) I was in Kraków in the middle of August last time... lol. But, I didn't know that Caraboska is a Christian, I thought she was Muslim... Caraboska, you rock!;P You are looking even more modest than many Muslim hijabis out there... So, how do find my beautiful country? Did you like Kraków? What is your expeience? ;-) Shoot my an e-mail: aisha_baranowska@yahoo.co.uk
