This is my first magazine style post, let me know what you think. If you'd like to look at the Polyvore set go here.

Rayyan's Seventeenth Outfit - Hijab

Rayyan certainly likes cut velvet floral scarves, this one is blackish navy with blue flowers and green leaves.

A little bird told me, aka alixianna that my hijab posts are great so I've gone nuts!

This is a skinny scarf so you need a navy al-amira underneath Scarf World's Skinny Velvet Scarf (Blue Roses) for £15.99 It's the closest scarf to Rayyan's as its cut velvet in the same colors.

Still pretty skinny so stick with that al-amira Scarf World's Sheer Neck Scarf (Blue & Black Floral) for £2.95 This is similar in the patterns and colors but isn't velvet.

Scarf World's Long Sheer Shawl (Black & Blue Poppies) for £9.99 This scarf doesn't have any green but the turquoise actually matches her shirt better

Scarf World's Sheer Silk Shawl (Blue Flowers) for £9.99 Can you say pop! I really love this scarf, its quite different because it doesn't have any black but if you are going for the blue look try this great scarf.

Here's the al-amira you need, its nice and long so you don't have to be scared of the skinny scarf slipping off: Hijab Girl's Necessity One-Piece Al-Amira Hijab in Navy Blue for USD $5.25

Rayyan's Fifteenth Outfit - Hijab

I really like this scarf, a sheer shayla in maroony red, brown and yellow over a brown underscarf with a white teardrop stick pin.

I love paisley so I've chosen heaps:

Scarf World's Beaded Pashmina Shawl (Crimson Peony Paisley) for £34.99


Scarf World's Jamawar Shawl (Brown Flower Paisley) for £19.99


Scarf World's Jamawar Shawl (Gold Flower Paisley) for £19.99


Scarf World's Chiffon Scarf (Caramel Leopard and Paisley) for £5.99


and for the pin:
Hijab Store Online's Hijab Pin - Pearl Drop for £2.75

Rayyan's Fourteenth Outfit - Hijab

Here are some options:
This scarf is the best match Scarf World's Skinny Velvet Scarf with Red Roses for £15.99 but is only 5.1"/13cm so is not suitable on its own as hijab. I suggest you wear it over a black al-amira

Here's some other options which also need you to put on your black al-amira first

Scarf World's Sheer Neck Scarf (Black Floral) for £2.95

Something quite different here Scarf World's Crochet Rose Scarf (Black) for £5.99

Rayyan's Thirteenth Outfit - Hijab

I adore this hijab, it is incredibly stylish and soft. The shayla is pink and is covered in floral patterns and hearts, and is worn over an olive green underscarf. I can't find any similar so I've found some really nice paisley pashmina options:

Scarf World's Jacquard Pashmina (Petal Pink Paisley) for £11.99

Scarf World's Beaded Pashmina Shawl (Rose Floral Paisley) for £34.99
Yes it's expensive but it is true pashmina and is very pretty.

Scarf World, has a wonderful section that is rare in general accessory sites in that it has a specific range of Hijab Scarves! They have a huge selection and I applaud them for responding to the needs of the Muslim community and encourage you all to have a look at their great website and huge range of scarves.

I have included this scarf, also as although it is quite different from Rayyan's scarf, it will match Rayyan's Thirteenth outfit well and has the soft floaty quality of the scarf she is wearing above:

Al Hannah Kuwaiti Style Wrap Hijab hi1276 in Pink for USD$14.99

Another pink option:
Aminah Fashions' Chiffon hijab with floral embroidery and diamante Code: style 4H for £4.95

Rayyan's Twelth Outfit - Hijab

In this episode Rayyan explains the Hijab at the disastrous open day at the mosque and wears this lovely dark pink hijab to show how stylish it can be. Here's the back of the scarf to show the detail of the material:

This scarf is a large sheer shayla in dark pink which has been wrapped a number of times over a black one-piece amira to ensure opacity. The scarf contains large pices of silver glitter and has no tassels. I have a scarf like this is a paler pink and its a really great fashion hijab which you can wear to parties or whenever you like if your a color fan like me!

Here's a really cute, although slightly different hijab substitute:

Star Scarves' Dark Pink with Sequins and Beads Scarf for USD $14.99

Here's the back so you can get a better idea of the gorgeous sequins and beads:

Rayyan wears a very simple silver and sparkly hijab pin like this:
