how to wear soft autumn with a hijab
sage, matcha, camel, dusty rose, teal and oat hijabs. matte fabrics: modal, jersey, crinkle cotton; a strong shine looks harsh next to your face. brushed gold, bronze and antique brass rather than shiny silver. pure white and cobalt are the two colours to keep away from your face.
