Yes, she should cover her neck hair and chest but there are permissible ways to cover more or less, like if you can manage to uncover your ears without showing your hair, then sure if you can make sure your chest isn't too visible then you don't really have to cover it with the hijab.

If you have an oval face, then it’s best not to wear a style that makes your face look longer. This means you shouldn’t create a triangle tip at the top of your hijab and it also means, you need to show more of your face. While that may sound weird, showing more of your face actually makes it appear bigger than covering parts of it because it gives it more of a shape.

The purpose is not to draw attention away from you. It is to draw sexual attention away from you, not all attention. Wearing bold colors is just fine since there is no Islamic law against fashion. So grab a nice hijab and have fun with the combinations.

Your trousers can be above your ankle but no higher than directly above your ankle. Just make sure to wear socks or shoes that cover your ankle with it. Try wearing high tops from Vans or Converse to match the look while keeping modest.

If you are wearing a dress past your ankle, try wearing a thin hijab wrapped loosely that covers your head to your chest to give a glamours or fancy look.

And if you are wearing one that is above your ankle, try a smaller, tighter one to give off more of a casual look.

If you are wearing a hood or coat, you don't need the hijab to hang out but if the hijab doesn't hang out then you'll look like your wearing a rag, so tuck it out the front. Also, make sure you have a good mix of colors dark and light and for slip-on hijabs, not patterns. Try wearing a zip up dress or one of those thin and flowing ones. and wear Vans or Converse.
