Rayyan's Twentieth Outfit - Hijab

Here Rayyan Hamoudi is wearing a pale red chiffon shayla with mauve paisley and a silver stickpin. This isn't my favourite scarf from a fashion perspective, I don't think the mauve and red really goes and especially not with a navy shirt underneath.

Scarf World's Jacquard Shawl (Red & Purple Paisley) for £11.99
I really love this shayla, the purple and red actually go, not like Rayyan's scarf. It looks alot like a pashmina but its actually polyester so its very light.

Scarf World's Sheer Silk Scarf (Red & Mauve Pasisley Stripes) for £14.99
Mauve and red with a metallic shimmer work well in this scarf as its more graduated than Rayyan's mauve paisley on red. This silk would feel lovely on your skin.

Scarf World's Ruffle Chiffon Neck Scarf (Berry) for £14.99
This neck scarf isn't wide enough to be a hijab at 11 inches but the colorway of apricot, dark purple and red are so nice so its worth matching it with an al-amira.

Star Scarves Crimson Red/Burgundy Al-Amira Hijab (2pcs) for USD $9.99
This is a nice understated red al-amira if you prefer to not go for brights but like the color.

Its not a stickpin but its quite cute, you could use the white or maybe even the pink hijab pin with the second scarf.
