I talk on it in a funny accent because obviously that’s only appropriate.
It’s that time of year again

Don’t even THINK about writing on this whiteboard. Seriously. I almost lost my hand and my left ear drum in the process.

I have some wonderful news, you guys! I’ve teamed up with a company that’s going to film the fashion series on situational dressing for Muslim women that I developed back in 2008! I’ll share details as they emerge, but in order to get this train moving again, we’re looking for a space to film! Ideally, the space will be a clothing store or boutique located in or around New York City. It should be clean, well lit, and spacious enough to fit about 4 people during filming; we’ll provide all the clothing for the shoots, but the store will be properly credited.
The video content will be posted here on Slice of Lemon and will also be distributed to other major fashion and style sites (details to come!) that inform and inspire more than 100 million monthly visitors! This is an incredible opportunity for you or someone you know to have your store and/or products showcased in a major way!
We’re also looking for candidates for a hijab makeover! Does someone you know go over-the-top with animal prints, body-hugging clothing, accessories and/or wild hijab styles? Nominate them for a chance to be made over by me in one of our videos! We’re also considering models, makeup artists and hair stylists to join us on our shoots!
E-mail me at Sabrina@sliceoflemon.com for your chance to be a part of this series!
Rainy day? Add some color!

We had a few weeks of unbelievable weather so I guess we were due for some rain. On days when I walk outside and can’t tell if it’s 7:30 a.m. or 7:30 p.m. I like to add some cheer with color. On this rainy day I chose to wear a colorful printed dress in a relaxed silhouette and added a few layers (a tee and poncho) for warmth. I love rain boots in this type of weather but platform boots or wedges are also a good option. If you have a rain coat, all the better, but if you’re outerwear wardrobe is made up of fabrics that aren’t water-resistant (like mine is) you can layer up with tops and scarves in colorful combinations and varied textures.

DIY photo display

I wanted to hang some photos of The Boss and me above my desk at home, but it would have been too costly to get them printed and put in the frames I wanted. So instead I decided to experiment with a little DIY.
I went to Staples and bought photo and black construction paper. Then I swung by Michael’s and picked up some inexpensive twine and a pack of mini clothes pins. In total, I spent about $30.
I printed the photos out on 2 sheets of photo paper, cut a backing out of black construction paper for each photo and taped them together. Next, I cut 2 pieces of the twine (about 3 feet each) and hammered them into the wall using tiny nails; I used the clothes pins to secure each photo to the twine.
To make the display look more intentional I took the excess twine on the edges and tied into bows.
I rocked these bangs for my 4th grade yearbook photo. (Read more about my younger years)
I met Rihanna while working as a reporter. So fun!

“Man in the early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that man has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is regressive back to ancient times” - Nobel laureate, Tawakul Karman, in response to journalists who said her hijab was not proportionate with her level of intellect and education.
