I am going to review a hijab, Bijou by Hijab n Style, that I won in a giveaway contest by one of my favorite bloggers Sweet Modesty by Sadeel Allam. She was giving away three hijabs and I won this one. When I first opened the mailing box I notice how beautifully the hijab was wrapped, thanks Sadeel, so I just had to take a picture.
