"Modesty Is The Best Jewel Of A Women" -Bibi Fatima-Tuz-Zohra(Radi Allah Tala Anha)
Modesty accompanies faith.Wearing the Hijab isn't just a matter of covering your head with a piece of cloth.Hijab constitutes an Islamic way of Life.Hijab is a statement which Indeed should portray a certain attitude.Allah(subhana wa tala) purifies her heart and mind through Hijab and also beautifies her inner and outer self.Hijab reflects Innocence,Purity,Modesty,Shyness,Serenity,Contentment and Obedience to Allah(subhana wa tala)'s preservation of a women's chastity.A Muslimah will be rewarded when she wears her Hijab and leaves her home for every second and for every drop of sweat she gets by obeying Allah(subhana wa tala)

SURAH-AL-NUR:VERSE-31
"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful".

SAHIH MUSLIM:-Book 24. 

"Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) having said this: Two are the types of the denizens of Hell whom I did not see: people having flogs like the tails of the ox with them and they would be beating people, and the women who would be dressed but appear to be naked, who would be inclined (to evil) and make their husbands incline towards it. Their heads would be like the humps of the camel inclined to one side. They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its odour whereas its odour would be smelt from such and such distance".

Few Of Our Sisters Says:
It is not mentioned in Quran to cover face and hands but the things which creates Fitnah should be covered.Yes it is said in Surah al Nur in verse 30: that men should lower their gaze,but womens should not give them anything to gaze AT.
