As a hijab-wearing woman and modest dresser, it can be challenging to shop for stylish looks that make me feel comfortable — but like most style mavens, I love a good challenge. I put together six killer street style looks for New York Fashion Week that allowed me to express my personal style and my faith. I was sure to include some luxury hijabs (from my latest collection!) and included some great front-row-worthy shopping picks perfect for anyone looking to score some major style points.

With a Pop of Color and a Bold Pattern

As a modest dresser, I don't really wear leggings, so when I found leather pants that weren't skin-tight, I literally gave myself a high five. My coat is vintage, and I paired it with the Modal Maxi Hijab in Camel ($20).

My coat is vintage, but this Leopard Faux Fur Coat ($111) is every bit as stylish.

I've been obsessed with overalls lately and found this amazing pair at Storets. I sized up for the looser fit I was going for. And who doesn't love a healthy pop of red?

For my third NYFW look on my way to Milly, I busted out the leather pants again (I can't stop wearing them!) and mixed edgy with soft with a faux fur coat and the Ethereal Ivory Hijab.

When I woke up on Saturday and it was raining, my first thought was "noooooo," but then I embraced it, grabbed my umbrella, and made my way to the Christian Siriano show. I shopped my closet for this look and put together an outfit with pieces I've had since college — goes to show that great style can always be reinvented . . . with the right pieces!

I got in on the Pantone color of the year with this cropped sweater with balloon sleeves, pairing it with plaid pants and the Festival Florals Haute Hijab ($20) on my way to the Jenny Packham presentation.

I tucked the back of my pants into my pumps so they would slouch in the front to add more interest to the look. Mine are Calvin Klein (sold out), but I love this Nine West ($79) pair.

On the final day of NYFW, I wore the Celestial Silver Hijab, part of our Luxury Collection, to the Naeem Khan show, and I felt like an absolute princess! I kept it classy in all white to let the stunning headpiece really shine.
