By Sara MaherIt’s about that time, y’all. Halloween is just around the corner, and it’s time to think about what costumes we’re going to be slaying in this year. For you hijabis who feel limited when it comes to indulging in Halloween, don’t! There are so many ways you can work a look that’ll express just how…
By SaniaThe leaves are changing, the temperature is getting cooler and pumpkin flavor is everywhere. Yup, it’s fall alright — my favorite season! I honestly don’t know anyone who doesn’t like fall. Not only do I love the temperature and fall flavors, but of course — fall fashion! This is probably the easiest season to transition…
By Guest BloggerThere I was, scrolling down my Instagram feed, thinking that New York Fashion Week couldn’t possibly get any better, when 14 double taps later I get to a post showcasing not one, not two but three Hijabi bloggers posing in front of the Desigual show. Those three bloggers were Leena Asad of With Love Leena,…

This annual fashion show is held specifically for Muslim women, by Muslim women. Hosted by our very own Sara Zayed, the Rutgers Chapter president of MuslimGirl, some of…
By Sara MaherThe side-swept hijab is so quick and easy, which makes it the perfect go-to style for back to school. No one knows better than us hijabis how difficult it can be to work with a hijab, especially if you want layers or a turban that doesn’t look like a bird’s nest on your head. (Trust…
By Jenan MatariHey ya’ll, Happy September! As we prepare for fall (yes, already), I have to start reminding myself of “layers, layers, layers,” early on . For some reason, I’ve convinced myself that layering clothes transforms your outfit from “lazy” into “shabby chic”– whatever that means. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I tend to just…
By SaniaWhat do I love most about fashion? How it can bring all different cultures together into one common space. Lately, many trends have been overlapping throughout different cultures. Yes, some may not like big brands like Versace taking influence from different cultures and calling it their own. However, I think this just shows how other…
By Jenan MatariHello people! I’m new here so – go easy on me. Oscar de la Renta (R.I.P.) once said that, “Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself.” I don’t know if I’d consider myself fashionable, but I’d like to assume that I’m stylish – then again, you know what…
By Sara MaherJapan is home to a more unique style than we are used to. Whether it is spiky hair or kitty ears or pink, purple and blue hair, the Japanese people take creativity to an more unique level. The Lolita style is an example of the interesting trends that take over the Japanese streets. Inspired by…
By Guest BloggerI often forget how important image is to some people — and then it came creeping back to me today. I was told not to wear black to work because as a Muslim woman it can look “too extreme.” When a non-Muslim wears black it’s seen as smart, sleek and stylish, but when a Muslim…
By yusra“Aren’t you, like, hot under there?” “If I were be you, I would be sweating.” “I don’t know how you survive.” Trust me, you don’t know how many times I’ve had to hear all that in just one day of walking around school — it’s brutal. But there are ways to avoid the extreme heat,…
By Sara MaherTurban-style hijab are perfect for the summer, and they’re always so fashionable! Don’t let turban tying scare you; it’s much easier than it looks! A simple turban style requires no pins, only wrapping and tucking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9wZ03aRmzk 1. “Do-Rag” It Up Make sure your scarf is at equal lengths over your head. Take the two…
By SaniaThe weather is starting to get warmer and before you know it, it will be pretty hard to find modest pieces for the heat. Right now is a perfect time in the transition from cool to warm days to find some fun, modest pieces that keep you covered yet super trendy. I have found 50…
By Sara MaherGlasses are one of my favorite accessories — especially if I don’t have the time or energy to put on a little eyeliner. There are all kinds of incredible styles that can be worked if you just give them a chance! My favorite glasses are definitely the ClubMaster styled glasses because they just work with my face…
By Sara MaherEyebrow care is super important. So important, they made a saying for it — “Your eyebrows are on fleek, dude!” …Well, maybe people don’t say “dude” anymore, but “on fleek” is pretty popular nowadays! Now, we weren’t all born with the perfect arch or the fullest set of brows, but we live in a time and…
