I found this tumblr site that collects quite a few hijab friendly pieces like long skirts, long sleeved turtlenecks here. In case you haven't seen it, indiaskapie made two hijabs lately, one is the sporty hijab and the other is the fashionable hijab, both in her studio here. I recoloured the fashionable one in my studio here.

Indiaskapie's Fashionable Hijab - recolours by TheAfricanSim
In 18 patterns (that match my hijab dresses here) and also in 27 solid recolours based on my West African palette, both males and females can wear it but it is under female fashion choice. You'll need the MESH by the ever awesome indiaskapie ( here, page 3 of her Studio). Details:
- Standalone recolours, 18 classical/floral/ethnic patterns + 26 bright solid colours - Custom thumbnails (TheAfricanSim logo, orange border) - Disabled for random - Teen to elder, also enabled for aliens - Enabled for daily, formal, party, professional, situational, career - color tagged - TOU: please respect original creator's TOU - and also if you use my recolor/retexture for anything please credit me and link back. Tagging (theafricansim) is optional but I would love it! - Credits: EA, S4S, Photoshop, custom content creators in general, and in particular my dearest Indiaskapie More pictures: #clothes #cas #hijab #muslim #islam #islamic #arab #arabic #headwrap #scarf #ethnic #recolor #accessory #headwear #female #women #fashion #historic #historical #african #theafricansim #believe & become

FYI colasblues and indiaskapie Kiara also made a niqab here, previews below: I quite like it! When I finish recoloring indiaskapie's amazing hijab veils I will put a link here too besides putting it in my studio. By the way, @colasblue maybe we could call this thread Arabic/Muslim cc so people who are not Arabic but are of the Islamic faith can find it easier? I was actually surprised when I found out the biggest (population wise) Islamic country was Indonesia (#2 is Pakistan and #3 is India), so in many Asian (and African) countries we are also use them.

Just noticed the first picture I took was with my painted shadows "on"... Oh well. The second one has no shadows painted on.

I decided to put the recolor WIP here too - I tried to map out shadows but failed miserably, however it actually looks great even without custom shadows, you did a great job indiaskapie ! I'll recolor in all the textures I did the hijab dress in so that they match up nicely as you can see with these two quick checks I did:

Thank you jkarin11! I love Star Wars, science fiction in general and steampunk so I do like incorporating that sometimes. Thank you too sammoyke! I based the trait presentation on a free template I saw somewhere, if you like I can look for it and send you a link. Very kind of you Kiara, I'm a big fan of your work and website especially your custom content for children.

colasblues thank you for creating this thread, this is a good idea! I also saw a new hijab here by Kiara on her blog (please note there is an ad pop up). Here are some pictures. I will probably recolor this as well if possible, and I'll post the link here when it's done; currently I'm working on recolors of indiaskapie's sporty hijab and prayer mat .

Thank you Mathcope and jkaliszew! A lot of the furniture and decor is by the wonderful simcredible team, there is a link here and here to some of the things I used - by the way those two links are hosted on TheSimsResource though they also have their own website with other things here that I also recommend.

Hi risperanto! Yes you are quite right in many things you say - they are indeed also my ancestors! Also, you are right about Hispanic not really being a race - my husband (who is Spanish by the way) and I often comment about the fact that in the United States it is considered so whereas here in Spain they are considered white. One thing I love about Spain though is that there is a very rich cultural and ethnic heritage, amongst others there is Celtic, Germanic, Moorish, and Jewish (amongst others) elements that have endured both in language and lifestyle. I really loved learning about Al-Andalus here in high school, certainly it was a time of splendor where Spain was one of the leading authorities (or perhaps "the" leading authority) in science and medicine in the world and the beauty of Granada is just spectacular. So where are you from? Welcome by the way! And indiaskapie I second you totally and would love to know where our beloved moderators are from!

Just in case someone started already doing this! I might try my hand at it if not, but it will probably take me some time. I did google it and check a couple of toddler cc lists but they are mainly CAS items or children's beds that I've seen. Thank you! And yay for toddlers!!!

I've discovered my ultimate numpty head (I think that term is not used in the US come to think of it) feel good pastime, recoloring shoes and designing store interiors. I wouldn't normally have posted this but just wanted orangemittens to see I do use her lovely painting. Close-up of a few of the shoes: This is another part of the store, not fully decorated yet.. It turns out this option is cheaper and more fun than real life shopping. And easier on the feet
