Haul: Inayah Collection Basic Essentials Hijabs

Hi everyone reading!

It's Ayesha.. I purchased these gorgeous hijabs/scarves from Inayah Collection a couple of months ago and thought I would show you guys.

Inayah is a London based online brand specifically designed for women that want to dress modestly regardless of their faith. All of what they design 'are built upon three elements, Vintage, Ethnic and Contemporary'. I would personally add in simplicity too. They really are a one stop shop for hijabi's in particular. Their clothing aren't opaque so you don't need to layer underneath and the length of the garments are long enough to maintain your modesty without compromising on your beliefs whilst still looking fabulous. They categorise their clothing into day wear, work wear and occasional wear, so you really are spoilt for choice! They also sell abayas, hijabs and recently started selling some stunning pieces of jewelry.

The only downside I feel with Inayah is, they're slightly on the pricey side and their return policy isn't the best especially with the hijabs. They don't accept any returns or exchanges of opened hijabs and hijab caps due to hygiene reasons. I'm sure you'll all agree with me when I say this can be very inconvenient and annoying! When you get a parcel you want to open it, even if you don't put it on your head or around your neck, just opening it to feel the material or to get a better idea of the colour is necessary especially when you've paid the amount you have.

These are the hijabs/scarves I got..

1.Light Flint Crepe Hijab - £12.00 - This colour is absolutely beautiful, it's one of them colours that changes depending on what you have on with it and suits every skin tone. I love it! 

2. Mink Georgette Hijab - £11.99 - This isn't the same colour as it appears on the website unfortunately, it looks like a nude on the website but when it came it was more of a light mustard which I wasn't really happy with. I was unable to return it as mentioned above! :(

3. Emerald Hijab - (No longer on the website so I don't know how it was.. Sorryyy!) 

4. Deep Grey/Purple Hijab - (Again, this is no longer on the website)

Their 'Basic Essentials' hijabs/scarves are lovely but aren't the ideal material to wear on your head. They're an extremely slippy material (Polyester Georgette), so you'll require a lot of pins to secure it down, also a hijab cap is definitely needed to keep everything in place. The material is very opaque, I've shown pictures below of the material single and doubled.


The 'Light Flint Crepe Hijab' single.


The same hijab doubled. 

As you can see, the material is lightweight but when it's doubled it's no longer opaque which is good as many of us wrap our hijabs when we put them on our heads. The length of these scarves are very ideal to create different hijab styles, the width is perfect, as is the length.

Here are some of our Inayah Favourites!

Overall Inayah are a great company that really cater to the modern hijabi woman. Although the prices are more on the expensive side, the quality is worth it. I have my eye on a few other items, stay tuned!

They also have an instagram @inayahc, where they share some lovely outfit ideas!

Hope you liked this post, until our next haul, byeee!
