The wedding season is one that everyone enjoys a lot including bride and groom. They want to look spectacular on their big day. But as soon as their big day is over, they look out to go for a honeymoon.
The couple spends their time deciding on the destination, making plans and finally, deciding outfits they are going to wear. As the times are changing, so are fashion and the lifestyles are changing. Hijab is going popular with every passing day and is already a fashion statement now. But how to style your Hijab with your honeymoon outfits? How many hijabs should you pack? You don’t need to worry about it anymore. Because we’ve got it all covered for you. We have compiled a list of modest and stylish ways which newly married girls can opt and look the best on their honeymoon.
Do’s And Dont’s
Here are some tips to remember when hijabi women go out for their honeymoon.
- You should plan your outfits in advance. Make a list and it will help you organize your belongings and you can check things off as you pack them. It saves you a lot of time.
- You should respect your and their cultural norms. Every country has its own unique customs and as travelers, we are responsible to learn more about the place that we are visiting. Being thrown into a new culture is overwhelming, and many people cope with this either by acting totally obnoxious or completely reserved. Don’t walk around your host’s culture on eggshells, but at the same time, be aware that you represent your home country.
- Never forget to update about you and your spouse to the family and friends. Keeping in touch is important because it makes the people back home feel at ease, knowing that you’re safe.
- If you are a strict observer of prayers, then don’t forget to pack your prayer essentials. There is no excuse for not praying especially when traveling. God has made it so easy for us to pray while traveling by shortening our prayers.
- If traveling in Summers or to a hot destination, leave your satin and other thicker fabrics of Hijab at home. Stick to simple styles and the fewer pins the better. Make sure your hair is pinned up under your hijab to keep cool.
- If you’re going to a private destination and you’re able to soak up the sun’s rays or swim without covering up in a burkini, keep in mind that as hijabis and modest fashion followers, we grow increasingly sensitive to the sun’s intense rays since our skin is always covered up and away from the sun. Even if you’re trying to get a tan, you’ll definitely want to wear a hat, apply and reapply SPF and bring aloe Vera with you to cool your skin once you’re out of the sun.
- Always pack your neutral color Hijabs, as they’ll be few and won’t take up more space in your suitcase. Neutral colors go with every outfit.
- Since you and your husband will be alone in this new place, pack a tripod with you. They’re inexpensive but incredibly handy and you won’t be wasting time requesting people to take your pictures.
Now, let’s have a look at some inspiring looks:
Outfit Ideas
↓ 19 – Hijab Outfit for Beach
When a hijabi couple plans to go to a beach destination, it could be a daunting task for the girl because of her modest clothes, as the ideas of styling could be limited. But you need not worry because we’ve discovered some stylish ways from which you can get ideas for your outfit.
So here’s one outfit that would cover you all over in the water. You can wear jeans too, as it gives you more coverage in the water. Take out the pom-pom sandals, floral dresses, bright veils, hats and straw bags and show us how it’s done this season. Looks so epic with the hat, doesn’t it? Here’s our complete guide on What to Wear As A Hijabi Traveler.
↓ 18 – Hijab Outfit as an Abaya
Abaya is a simple, loose over-garment, essentially a robe-like dress, worn by some women in parts of the Muslim world including North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The abaya covers the whole body except the head, feet, and hands. Often couples decide to go honeymoon for their spiritual purpose like for an Umrah. This Abaya is a must when you go there. It comes in different colors but I feel black ones look best.
↓ 17 – For Cold Weather
The cold weather is hard to take care of. But this outfit is easily available everywhere and it’s also budget friendly. The best thing here is matching gloves with the hijab. A super trendy woolen cap is a must for the freezing weather.
It would also be a good idea to invest in a high-quality coat for your winter honeymoon, but try to opt for one that doesn’t take up too much space in your luggage.
↓ 16 – Hijab with Maxi dress
The simple A-line maxi is always in fashion. This maxi dress is so feminine that women can find new styles and designs for every season and every destination for your honeymoon. The correct color combination of hijab and maxi will brighten you up and bring a glow to your face.
We love the outfits that hijabi fashion blogger Leena chose for her honeymoon in the Maldives. Every outfit she chose is simply classy and modest.
↓ 15 – Morning Fun
Mornings in a foreign land feel so magical. Watching the sunrise together and having breakfast in a cozy cafe or in a hotel room is so romantic for new couples. Here’s another new style which you can carry in the mornings there. Hijab can be worn in different modern ways yet modestly.
The skirt is super trendy as it covers all of the legs and still looks chic. This tea-pink skirt is a must go with any shirt in a light color. But the best look of this skirt will go with a white shirt and a cute little bag perfectly matched with a skirt. Wear some shoes that are comfortable to walk.
↓ 14 – The Jumpsuit
Jumpsuits are a great choice for when you are outside doing some shopping in a new place. If you can’t find a jumpsuit with sleeves, you can always cover it up with a Kimono or a cardigan. And even if you’re wearing a jumpsiot with sleeves, you can add a printed gown to it for some extra drama.
↓ 13 – Out for an Evening
You probably know how hard it is to find a nice hijab evening dress, and we usually end up wearing a strapless dress with a jacket over it, which is completely uncomfortable. But the dress like this, it is proper evening wear, with full sleeves and full length. Plus, the hijab fabric is a matching one, to give it a soft look for the evening. This is a net fabric and the embroidery is all over the dress in a lovely pattern.
When on a honeymoon, couples often decide to have a fancy evening out like dinner in a 7-Star restaurant or attending a cocktail party, and dresses like these are perfect for such evenings. Since the dress is heavily embellished, you should go for a simple, solid-colored hijab. We also love the idea of matching the hijab with the shoes.
↓ 12 – Don’t Forget To Pack a Stylish Travel Bag
Summers are so hot especially in South Asia which is challenging for girls to dress in the hot weather. Things are so much easier nowadays. You can choose any material, print, size, style, and accessories. We recommend going for whites in cotton fabric with funky colored pants. It won’t just give a funky look but also the hot weather won’t bother you. But the important this is that you should have a good-sized travel bag to keep all your essentials such as passport, wallet, sunglasses, makeup, and travel prayer mat. If you don’t already have one, you can take a temporary one with you for now and buy a new one once you go shopping on your honeymoon.
↓ 11 – Sightseeing Outfit
You need to stand out in light colors while exploring the city. The sun would be out with all the hustle and bustle going on in the city, a pair of sunglasses, a bag, and a gown gives a modest look to you while you remain chic and classy.
↓ 10 – Dress up With Denim Jacket
Well girls, if you’re going to a chilly destination then it’s just one look that you should have in your wardrobe because it will help you style cool hijab outfits. A denim jacket goes well with flared pants or skirts. All three pieces here are in different colors yet they look so chic with each other.
↓ 9 – Visit To The Gardens
On honeymoons, we often visit botanical gardens or orchids in the city and for such visits, girls wear hats not just on sunny days but as a fashion statement too. So if you have planned for your honeymoon on the sunny days, and are roaming in a garden, then grab a hat that goes with your top and hijab. Jeans would go really well in those days, with a cute small handbag!
↓ 8 – Outfit For Hilly Areas
If you have planned to go for your honeymoon in a hilly area, then you should make sure your outfit should be a simple straight skirt with no falls in it. It will be comfortable for you. Also, the colors should be bright that reflect nature.
↓ 7 – The Sandy Desert
The color that mixes with the desert sand would look great on girls. Just like in the picture where this shirt is purely reflecting the sand and it’s going really well with the bright multi-colored skirt. You can wear multi-colored pants too if you like.
↓ 6 – Hijab Street Style
Street style is a comfy and chic one that’s all about being yourself. If we think about what makes the Hijab clothing look so stylish, the secret is that it incorporates lovely colors.
The long coat here with a pair of jeans is giving her the street style look. The cute bag is matching with the jeans, giving a comfy feeling. Although, the hijab is of neutral color. For more ideas, check out these Popular Hijab Street Style Fashion Ideas For This Season.
↓ 5 – Perfect for Cruising
Cruising is so adventurous for everyone because you go to multiple port destinations every single day. The lovely sea-traveling is romantic for a honeymoon couple if they have limited time. The atmosphere is breezy and windy there so modesty should be a number one priority for a Hijabi.
A cotton jacket with a long skirt is a must for cruising. The skirt is not too tight to reveal your body parts but loose enough to give it a next-level fashion statement. With a matching pair of shoes and a darker shade of sunglasses, this look is a must-have for your honeymoon.
↓ 4 – Go for Pink Turban Style
Fashionable turban headcovers are all the rave as women who seek to cover their hair raid their closets for stylish looks that offer an alternative to the hijab.
↓ 3 – Sporty Wear
If you are going for an adventure to na island destination, you would definitely be going for hiking or a rafting trip. This sporty look will go with a hijab but don’t forget to wear sunglasses.
↓ 2 – Turban Hijab in Pools
For the pool party, you can wear maxi outfits, dungarees, trouser-shirt, denim skinny jeans or many more stylish outfits. You may also add craziness on your look with a blazer, kimono, hat, or modern fashion accessories.
If you’re going to be swimming, you’ll need a modest burkini.
↓ 1 – Island Style
If you are lucky enough to be going to an island, it’ll be an isolated spot for both of you. An island is synonymous with paradise. There’ll be sun most of the time and you’ll be surrounded by greenery all the time. To beautifully blend with such surroundings, opt for bright colors, full-sleeved shirts, and a long skirt, with the hijab in a lighter fabric. Another option would be to go for a floral maxi dress and if you can’t find a full-sleeved one, you can always layer under it with a shirt that matches your hijab.
