One of the most common mistake one can make is wearing the wrong colored scarf on a colored outfit. With an outfit that is colored on its own, it is best to wear a neutral shade so as not to overshadow the outfit. However, it certainly does not mean that one has to throw away their colored scarfs. Colored scarfs are great to add some brightness to your look. Additionally, they are great when trying to create a color contrast. The best way to pick the right color is to study the color wheel carefully. Colors that are on the opposite ends of the color wheel complement each other well. This blue, fringed Pashmina has carefully been picked to pair with a sienna-colored dress. Since the color of her dress is a dull tone, the blue scarf does great at lifting it.

↓ 1. How to Wear Pashmina Hijab in Summers
Many people believe Pashmina to be a thing reserved for the Winters, which is not valid. Pashmina comes in different kinds, and there may be one perfect for the summer weather. Another concern among girls practicing the Hijab is how to wear it during the harsh Summers. Cotton is sweat-absorbent, and so a Cotton Hijab may end up looking like a wet mess. On the other hand, Pashmina is not a sweat-absorbent meaning; it allows sweat to evaporate properly, letting you cool down. Additionally, the layers of threads, also known as the Ply, is a determinant of whether it is wearable in the Summers or not. The great idea is to opt for a lighter tone to keep the summers cool and breezy. This bright, sunshine-yellow dress is great for the Spring and Summer period. The addition of the belt makes for a great accessory and keeps the waist in shape, preventing a very baggy look. The black scarf and heels are two contrasting shades, added to create a bold look. However, they can be substituted with pastels and nude shades for a summer-appropriate look.
