HIJABERS: My favorite fabric for scarves/hijabs is silk, hands down. Let me explain why I personally like it the best. It exudes delicacy, and it casts an ethereal ambiance.

Going out with a friend, visiting family, having people over, etc. are all perfect occasions to wear silk and to look more presentable. I’d rather be overdressed than underdressed, always.
