UAE Abaya Bling Bling





Abayas with bling - a controversial covering in some parts of the of Gulf. In Dubai, abayas that have jewels, lace, and other ornate applique are considered apart of the daily fashion routine for many Sisters there. While in other parts of the Gulf like Saudi Arabia, these abayas are considered too flashy for public wear.

The first video i believe is a snippet from a BBC documentary on abaya/fashion in the Gulf. The second is a fashion show from i don't know where with GORGEOUS bling bling abayas.

So does bing on an abaya negate its purpose? What do you think?

Hijabifying Your Style - neck/chest scarves



Eileen Fisher Cotton Voile Shibori Wrap
from Bloomingdales



Kalamkari print square scarf from eShakti




Antique Floral Print Scarf from Forever21




Neck and chest coverage is in - and has been in for over a year! Even the veil fashion models have joined in on this one. So we have no excuse not to wrap it up! The best thing about the trend is that its very mainstream-chic, which means thats you'll blend in more for a change! How often does this happen to a hijabi, really???!!!

Take advantage of this style fenom. You can go by just about any ladies shop and find a slew of scarves, or you can bust out your old square/oblong scarves and keffiyas. You dont have to drop a grand on this accessory craze...and you'll be adding to your modesty :) No excuse not to cover up "the girls" now!
