The High Street Abaya

Well, it's as close to a high street abaya as you're going to get anyway... Feast your eyes on this long sleeve maxi from Oasis:
.
All you need to do is get this dress a couple of sizes up and voila, you have your very own £30 abaya - perfect for summer and winter. In fact, it would end up looking not too different to this Aab abaya which would set you back £84.99.. ouch.

Oasis' latest drop is actually pretty impressive, check out these Hijab-friendly pieces..

£55 maxi.. (It would be nice for a ladies only event):

Versatile skirt for £30..

This next skirt is on sale at £10:


I've left the best to last:

And it's only 70 quid.. Bargain!

Where To Get Loose Jeans

A reader wanted to know where she can get some straight cut jeans the other day, she said that she's really thin so they will look loose on her which is great but I just don't like the straight look unless the top is well below the knee - this is simply my opinion. So anyway, I'm not going to direct you to straight cut jeans but this website is great for reduced, loose, hijab friendly jeans which I love. Here are a couple I like:

They are from this website. Hope that helps!
