Inspiration

This might come as a shock to a few people but I have recently decided to wear a Hijab permanently. Well it started last year around Ramadaan time where I usually make a conscious effort to wear one but when the Ramadaan ended I wanted to continue wearing it. It was worn every now and again and not always constant and usually to the back tied in a bun, the usual way some of my friends would wear it but a couple of weeks ago something happend and for some reason I was inspired to wear it everyday in the proper manner, which is probably very strange for most of my friends considering I am the one who is the most into fashion amoungst them all. What actually inspired me alot to get to this conclusion was another blogger who I came across on facebook, her name Dina Toki-o. Her sense of style, creativity, passion for the deen and how she wore her Hijab without compromising her style is what drew me closer in wanting to be that way. Dressing appropriately, modestly and suitable for every occasion while still looking fabulous at the same time. Many of my friends find this hard to do, because you need to cover your head which means no more tight clothes or short tops but I find it liberating and finally getting that sense of respect from people that I rightly deserve as a muslim women. Well the point I have been trying to make is that its not hard to be fashionable and fabulous while being modest and wearing your hijab. I will be posting a couple of pictures soon to show you exactly what I mean....xoxo
