spice up a plain shaded outfit by throwing in a few hints of red. it adds just a touch of colour, a little bit of warmth and plays a welcome distraction to the usual monochromatic look.

tangerine dream
i love oranges, apricots and peaches. they always brighten up an outfit and make it just that little bit fresher...
fuschia and grey
someone murdered my laptop - hence the lack of posts. to make up for it - feast your eyes on this sweet eye candy...
going out
how is this for an awesome night time outfit? i love the bright splashes of thrown-on colour on top of the white jacket and the so-bright blue of the dress.
hippy relaxed brown
brown! i love brown! definitely my second favourite colour after green. anything earthy really works for me. here is a relaxed, earthy type look for the hippies-at-heart out there. this is one i would love to wear!
cool silver
this vintage style dress is so cute for a hijabi day look. it has the freshness of spring and summer without the harsh colours, while having the coolness of grey and silver to be worn during winter.
fresh dressing
pastel minty greens are cute shades to wear no matter what the season. here is one outfit splashed with greens and mints.
how to do up the red dress
i think the best way to start of an outfit is by taking a plain basic and to work off of that. down below we have a pretty plain red sleeveless dress, that i am going to do a few different looks with:
down below:
the first look has been fixed using a large, poncho style tartan jacket, red tights, black shoes and a black hijab.
second in line: a cute black gypsy top - emroidered with tiny flowers, black hijab and flowery square scarf that has been folded into a triangle and wrapped around the neck and across the chest. its matched with red shoes and a deeper red bag.
third look: reverse look with the shoes and tights, a big square bag, black hijab - large loose jacket and to really add distraction a long monochromatic tie-dyed scarf has been hung around the neck.
but my favourite alternative look is this one below done up with a heavily striped shawl, two belts across the mid-section (done up loose and with the help of the shawl the belts wont add obvious curves to your appearance), a red beret and a few brooches here and there to complete the look.
which one would you be tempted to wear?
one item - three ways
which set featuring this HR hijab do you prefer?
the hippy tie-dyed dress set:
the formal abaya style:
or the classic black skirted look:

light lilac
with a bit of an indo/malay twist on the hijab - this look is perfect for a slightly more formal event.
hijabifying eva mendes
doesn't she just look so cute in her striking red, full length leopard print dress standing on a pier in venice? i think it is gorgeous, classy and very stylish. here is how i would hijabify the look..
would you wear eva's dress?
tribal-african maxi look
i tossed up about what colour jacket/cardi to put with this set. in the end i gave up and decided i would let you pick. by the way - im completely against actual animal print/fur. so as long as it is fake it is ok, but real fur/animal skin is a complete no-no for me. when people have actual python skin bags or turn crocodiles into shoes it just grosses me out. same goes for those idiots who hang moose/cattle heads off their walls and match it with bear skin rugs (yes i have seen a few in my time).
which one?
i have done three sets up for the long black dress that you can see below. i wont post the link because its way too expensive to be even considered worthwhile buying, but you can just complete the looks with any plain black dress or even a plain black abaya (which is how i would do it).
matched with citrus tones and bow tie flats...
purple & pink hues - love those cute flats...
cool shades of blue...
which one would you wear?
