Along with a unilateral rejection of turquoise, for some time I also never wore any shade of purple or had any items of a purple color, with the infrequent exception of lavender. But, I have finally in the last three years thrown off this prejudice, and been slowly acquiring purple items. I think the plum shade in particular suits my complexion, so when I had the opportunity, I bought a couple of undercaps in that color. Thanks to Azzah for ordering those for me! This tube underscarf, lace bonnet cap, and star chiffon scarf all came from sunny Malaysia.
This outfit is actually very different from what I would normally wear because I don't like long skirts and almost never wear heels, since I walk about 4km a day going to and from work. But this day I was out and about on my bicycle, and I was lucky enough to find the "perfect" long skirt. More on this marvelous skirt later.
I feel like my poses today are very "model-y" and I'm not sure if I should be happy about that... hehe. I guess my posing ability is getting a little stronger ;)

I Need Something....
Buy it here! Some of these shops I have ordered from myself, and some I haven't but have heard good things about. If you have used a shop, then please let me know so I can give it a star rating!

Because: HUGE selection (over 1,000 scarves), fast and reasonably-priced international shipping. Has everything a beginner would need, and is always getting new products, including Mona and Kuwaiti hijabs.

Seems to have a good selection of Al-Amira and Spanish-style caps, as well as some interesting bonnets and scarves.

A nice selection of modest clothing, including jilbabs, tops, cardigans, and maxi dresses. Also hijabs of all types. Offers a monthly contest for a free hijab.

Good selection of reasonably-priced hijab scarves, a wide selection of full-coverage underscarves (called Covering Bandannas on the site), bonnets, and the "bulkyjab," a generously-sized scarf for full coverage with lots of fabric to play with. Order within the UK only, because their international shipping rates are outrageous.

Newly launched modest clothing line by hijabi Hana Tajima-Simpson. A basic collection, but bound for great things. Basics of each item your wardrobe requires- skirts, trousers, polo tops, snood caps, dresses. Pre-ordered items shipped quickly, and were very high quality.
