Tutorial: How I Wear My Shawl

Assalam lovelies. ^_^

I got requests from you girls (Hi Ezza & Syafiqah!) (^_^)/ *wave* to do tutorials on how I wear my shawl in recent weddings that I attended. To tell you the truth, I was inspired by Hana Tajima from Style Covered. I guess, a lot of you already know this talented young Muslimah fashion designer. Kan kan kan? For me, her style sangat simple...and you girls tau I suka simplicity. So...itu le yang I pakai everytime keluar. Hikhikhik.

Hehe. Okay without further ado. Here is my version of the shawl style. =D Bahan-bahan yang diperlukan adalah seperti berikut ye ladies. Hihihi. :D

Bahan-bahan yang diperlukan

First step is to wear your cotton inner. Actually...tak kisah la you girls nak pakai inner apa kan...Maysaa bonnet ke...lace inner ke...Tak kisah janji you girls selesa. I lagi suka pakai cotton inner. So that if I pakai shawl tu dia tak lari-lari. Heeee.

Pakai inner siap-siap. ^_^

Minta maaf, I tak pakai make up sepanjang sesi fotografi ni (fotografi konon. Hahaha). Okay. Then...letak shawl atas kepala. One side should be shorter than the other one.

Gambar blur. Sorrrrrrrrrryyyyy. *_*

Aiseh..blur la pulak gambar di atas. Sorry ye ladies. Hehehe. And then...using cushion pin (alaa...jarum yang kepala dia besar tuuu) pin kan kat each side.

Pin pin.

Better view of the pin. I buat ni takde cermin kat depan. Tu yang pin tu nampak ketara. Sematkan cantik-cantik ye ladies.

Macam tu la gamak nya. Then jangan lupa pin kan kat sebelah lagi.

Pin sebelah lagi

After that....bawak the shorter side of the shawl ke belakang macam gambar kat bawah ni.

Flip kan shorter side ke belakang bahu

Selepas itu....pegang your longer side shawl macam ni...and bring the inner side of the longer shawl tadi wrap around your neck. Alahai. Pening la nak explain. Tengok je la gambar. =D

Then nak kena wrap this longer side around the neck

Hoh. Ni betul punya slow-mo I snap gambar ni. Hahaha

Haa...gitu la gamaknya. Hihihihi

Haaa...nampak kan? How I did it? Tak perlu la sangkut kat sanggul tinggi-tinggi tu. Just wrap je kat leher. =D Then side yang you pegang tu..letak je kat bahu. Tak perlu buat apa-apa.

Then it's time to use the small brooch

Untuk kemas kan shawl kat bawah dagu tu supaya cover the neck area, ambil small brooch and pinkan inner side of the longer shawl tadi kat bawah shorter length of the shawl yang kita bawah ke belakang tadi. =D Macam gambar kat bawah. =D

Pinkan kat dalam. Don't make it too tight. Nanti susah nak breathe pulak. =D

Haaa...pin kan brooch tu kat situ. Then yang shorter side tu, cover sikit supaya brooch tadi tak menonjol sangat. If pakai another cushion pin pun boleh, tapi the pin selalu nak tercabut. So I think it's best if pakai brooch. =D

Haa..like that maaa... =D

Haaa...dah siap! Simple kan? This style of shawl, if ikut Hana Tajima, kena pakai shawl yang keras.

Oh sudah siap. =D

But I tell you what? If guna chiffon or kain lembut...effect dia lagi cantik. Flowy and lembut je nampak. Tak percaya? Heeee. =D

Okay. If you girls interested nak tengok video Hana Tajima on this same tutorial, you can view it here.

Okay. That's all for today. Happy shawl-ing everyone. Hahaha. Tata! ^_^
