Ah, what I’m dreaming of wearing for eid. I’ve done “american” clothes the last few eids, but there is just something about putting on a long, flowing swooshy abaya that makes everything fall into place for eid.
and and, the prices are crazy BUT if you know a tailor they can usually help by designing similar things.
I’m inshaAllah wearing a brown turquoise abaya / dress this eid
Ah, but I like black abayas My first abaya was a black gulf style one with a mock coat, and I’ve been partial to them every since. I always pair them with a bright scarf, which creates a nice contract IMHO.
Brown/Turquoise does sound pretty. Post a picture if you have one.
I was drooling over a hot pink abaya from rayannes last year, but nothing ever came of it.
