Yeah, I loved this scarf..so much.

Okay so every hijabi has that one struggle. My struggle is finding maxi scarves, which are just scarves that have more material because it covers a lot and gives a lot of material to work with. But, my hijabi (or whoever is reading this) friends I have found my solution...and it's called Abaya Republic. Haven't heard of them? Well you're just about to hear all about them.

I <3333 this abaya

A friend of mine has always had a different and rather unique style when it comes to her abayas (a black long cover up commonly worn by Muslim women). Honestly, sometimes I don't know how she pulls off some of the ones she wears, but she does and she makes it look easy for people like me who have a very specific style when it comes to abayas. She usually shops in Dubai, which I'm sure many of you know, is quite far from this side of the world. So she had this idea to bring those styles to this side! Best part of this all is how close she is to my house because after I saw her collection of abayas and scarves, I know I've found the place to go to solve my hijabi struggle and create and find my own unique abaya style. I honestly am quite picky when it comes to abayas because of my height and what not, but she has styles that I would truthfully test out and see how they look. Which I did during our little photoshoot, making me fall in love with one of the abayas I tried on! All in all, what I'm trying to say is that you've got to check out what this girl and her sister-in-law have! They don't have a website up yet but all the contact info and Facebook page will be posted below!

For all those "oh you fancy" girls out there; loved it!
