Winter Hood Scarf

Here are some alternative hijabi hoods for winter!

Luxury Diva $15.00--$20.00 Amazon.com:




Scala hood $45.00 Amazon.com:


These are a ONE PIECE hat/scarf combo. Try wearing a amira-hijab cap or underscarf underneath. Use for cold days out at a park or in the snow! Wear with a turtleneck or wrap the ends of the scarf around your neck.

Perfect Layering Tee!

As I mentioned previously, it's difficult to wear a t-shirt alone without tweeking it to meet hijab. But it is also difficult to find a t-shirt for layering--it has to be fit enough to not bunch up under the top layer and the sleeves should be long enough to avoid having to add arm sleeves or a jacket. Plus, they need to be a cool cool cotton to ease the heat! And they should be without any stiching or bunching or wide, deep necks!

These long sleeve t-shirts from DIVIINEMODESTEE are made especially just for layering! They're great! Cool and fitted, pre-shrunk, and a great deal! Available in various colors.

Designed for cozy comfort, style and and basic layering, this tee will become your favorite daily choice. The sleeves are designed with extra length to fall below the wrist and cut to flatter the arm. Great for layering with one or many of our Diviine Tees, this season's sweaters or wear alone. Soft touch to the skin, this is a tee you will not want to take off!

Similar to our cotton lycra material this tee will not ball up or lose it's form. We only offer quality that you expect to last with wear.

T-shirts

I like the convenience of wearing a long sleeve t-shirt. It does not require layering which is great for a hot day. But women's t-shirts are often low cut, boat neck, or tight on the chest so they require adjustment for hijab. Men's t-shirts are so much more modest--just compare the neck of this men's t-shirt to the neck of the women's tees! And of course a man's tee is looser in fit. I know some Muslims might say women should not wear men's clothes, but I think it is fine as long as the intention is to be more modest and NOT to look like a man. What do you think?

There are products such as arm covers that women can use to extend the sleeve length.

Also, there are products called "dickies," that one can use to cover the neck and chest. Dickies are worn under the shirt and do not cover the whole torso, just the neck area:

Houndstooth

I love the black and white houndstooth print so much I couldn't choose just one item to highlight. Wear ONE piece of houndstooth print with a basic black & white outfit, adding a spice of red in the accessories. And who says a hijabi can't rock a hat or headband on her head with her headscarf, or another scarf around her neck or handbag? I say go for it. Houndstooth is always hip and classy.

Express Yourself

Express yourself with a graphic tee. Use color to show your style as well as the accessories, which you can take from casual-hip to casual-prep all with the same basic tee and jeans. Make sure your tee is at least one size up so as not to be too tight--(you might even want to try the men's t-shirt section for a looser fit!). And find an extra long tee to cover the rear (which is usually not a problem for us petite women)! Get jeans that are a boot cut or a wide to keep with the artistic graphic style!
