Get Ready for Monday

Assalamualaikum.

It has been quite a long time since my last fashion style creation in Polyvore. I think my skill is getting rusty after the long hibernation so tonight I've re-login and try to make a set for my Monday Style.

It's not for Sunday because tomorrow I'll have to wear my uniform. As usual.

So, this is my newest creation:




I hope you like it.

Newest Project

Love The Way You Look

Assalamualaikum dan good afternoon everyone.

This is my latest Polyvore project, the 'Love the way you look' abaya style ideas. In between my jobs I use a few minutes to create them inspired from the beautiful abayaat that I've seen on the Net. Here they are.







What do you think?

Why I said "This is not hijab."


Assalamualaikum and good afternoon to all my dear friends, readers and visitors.

I keep thinking about a comment that was left under one of my latest Polyvore's style creation. It was quite long but the message is clear, the writer wants me to explain my reason for stating so boldly that this kind of fashion is not hijab.

Let's read her message once again. Shall we?
is it ok if u explain why some of the sets are not hijab? this will make people understand why it is not hijab. and i agree with you on this set. i remember seeing a girl and her mom at the mall and they are both wearing hijab. the mother was dressed fine, but the girl was wearing tights and a mini skirt. i got so mad. i know i don't wear a hijab, but i would never wear anything that short in public. only in front of my husband. i respect the women who wear the hijab right. and practice islam everyday. and they do good things with their attitude and their actions. some muslim women who wear a hijab smoke argilla and/or have boyfreinds, they go out at night with their friends. some women just have a bad attitude and are mean to everybody. that is not islam. anwayz, nice set, just please explain in each set why the sets you made are not hijab so that people can understand.


Firstly I'd like to thank the owner of the message who called herself by the name rollout4490 in Polyvore.com and I haven't written any reply to her yet.


Actually I created 3 sets which have the 'This is not hijab' wording on them. My intention for those sets are to include them in my entry in Keluargaku Sayang on the Aurah topic. I do not want to insert a real model photo so I made a few sets to portray the real thing. As I was in a hurry, I do not write any explanation in Polyvore because immediately after the sets were ready, I posted them in this (Cerita Pasal Tudung) entry. 


Okay, I'm going to explain my reason for saying they are not hijab. First, let's read this 3 translations of ayah 31 from Surah Nisa' in our holy Qur'an,
024.031 
YUSUFALI: And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss. 
PICKTHAL: And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display of their adornment only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils over their bosoms, and not to reveal their adornment save to their own husbands or fathers or husbands' fathers, or their sons or their husbands' sons, or their brothers or their brothers' sons or sisters' sons, or their women, or their slaves, or male attendants who lack vigour, or children who know naught of women's nakedness. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And turn unto Allah together, O believers, in order that ye may succeed. 
SHAKIR: And say to the believing women that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof, and let them wear their head-coverings over their bosoms, and not display their ornaments except to their husbands or their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or those whom their right hands possess, or the male servants not having need (of women), or the children who have not attained knowledge of what is hidden of women; and let them not strike their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may be known; and turn to Allah all of you, O believers! so that you may be successful.


And let's also read the Islamic dress code, 

Conditions of Muslim Dress Code

  1. Clothing must cover the entire body, only the hands and face may remain visible (According to some Fiqh Schools).
  2. The material must not be so thin that one can see through it.
  3. The clothing must hang loose so that the shape of the body is not apparent.
  4. The female clothing must not resemble the man's clothing.
  5. The design of the clothing must not resemble the clothing of the non-believing women.
  6. The design must not consist of bold designs which attract attention.
  7. Clothing should not be worn for the sole purpose of gaining reputation or increasing one's status in society.

The reason for this strictness is so that the woman is protected from the lustful gaze of men. She should not attract attention to herself in any way. It is permissible for a man to catch the eye of a woman, however it is haram (unlawful) for a man to look twice as this encourages lustful thoughts. 

Islam protects the woman; it is for this reason that Allah gave these laws. In today's society womankind is being exploited, female sexuality is being openly used in advertising, mainly to attract the desires of men and therefore sell the product. Is the woman really free in today's society? The answer is obviously no. The constant bombardment by the media as to how the ideal woman should look and dress testifies to this.

So... do you think I need to explain more? I think this is enough explanation for my claimed on those sets. I can make more but those 3 are some examples of what some of our sisters out there are wearing. It's rather difficult to advice others especially on their attire more so when they claimed it as hijab.

I hope this post manage to answer th friend's comment on my Polyvore set.

Can I wear pants and at the same time wear niqab?


In my dictionary, wearing pants and at the same time you wear niqab is no problem at all. I have several people asking me the same question so I think this would be my answer.

Thank you.

Simple Attire for A Cold Day

Assalamualaikum.

Would you wear something like this on a cold day? Think as if you are someone who's always wear jilbab or abaya as your daily outfit.




It's quite cold lately and the rain keeps coming. I wear something like this almost everyday, except my jilbab is a black abaya dan I don't own any gloves.

I feel like buying one pair to cover my cold hands.

Request from Suraya

Assalamualaikum and good evening everyone.

I'm here just to update with a short post. This is intended for dear Suraya who has been waiting patiently for me to fulfill her request. I hope she'll forgive me for being so late in doing this. Luckily she reminds me. Alhamdulillah.

So, Sue, this is one suggestion for you. I do not create more than one set because I don't want to confuse you. Let's take a look at my suggestion.





I love your jalabiya Sue. It is very feminine and gorgeous. I would suggest you find a hijab with a darker tone of either pink or burgundy with some bling-bling on it. Find a pair of shoe also from the same colour tone. Matched them with a black shiny clutch to make your appearance a bit formal.

Use only a light make-up with a beautiful kohl applied around your eyes. Just enough to follow the sunnah and enhance a bit your self confidence to walk up that stairs and stand in front of the audience to receive your degree.

And as for the accessories, use some simple bangles maybe black + gold + pink, a bracelet and also a cute ring. Do not add to much.

If my suggestion is not to your liking, I'll be okay but I hope you shall like it.

Congratulation Suraya! Happy Graduation!

For Those Who Like Coloured Abaya




Just an idea for ladies who love wearing coloured abaya or jubah. It has been long since I wear my coloured abaya but I still love looking at muslimah who wear it.

I love that shoes and of course the handbag too.

Regarding the hijab, it would be more appropriate if it is bigger and have a wider coverage of one's upper body.

Would you wear this style?

Ideas for styling Layla Abaya

Assalamualaikum dear friends and readers.

It's been a few days after my last post. I was very busy trying to catch up with all the works and also managing my businesses so as usual my attention have to be focused only to one blog, Keluargaku Sayang.

Anyway, it does not mean that I forget about KakChik's Wardrobe. Insyaallah this is my 2nd best blog ever and I love writing here as much as I love writing at the former one.

Ramadhan is going to leave us soon and in day time I am busy with mostly the abaya business, apart from my career at the Library. Alhamdulillah this Ramadhan Abaya Elegan managed to gain many customers and more than half of them bought this abaya:
Layla Abaya
I also have this abaya and love wearing it either to work or sometimes to special events such as weddings and dinners. Anyway, one customer is still new in wearing abaya and she asked for my help to style her.

Huhu, my skill in Polyvore is getting rusty again and I just managed to create this sets:













Dear Harlina, I'm sorry for not able to create a better sets. I'm not very satisfied with this ideas. If you don't like them, insyaallah I'll create some more. Inform me okay.

With that, I'm going to rest now. I want to get up early for Sahur and Qur'an. Ma'assalamah.

During Ramadhan People Like To Be Modest

But I suggest that be modest all the time because it is better for our imaan.

Assalamualaikum dear friends,

I am participating in another contest called Ramadhan Mubarak and here is my creation.







I hope you'll like it. I have this abaya and wear it regularly to work. The lexus material is very light and soft and also makes me feel cool wearing the abaya. You can order this abaya from ABAYA ELEGAN.

Wassalam.
