    Finally Found a Great Cover Up!

    UPS just delivered my new cover up, and I love it! ..g.:

    I often find that the cover ups marketed to BDers are...well...tacky! Lots of big, gaudy patterns embroidered on them, etc. And for some unfathomable reason, many of them don't open down the front, either.

    A couple of months ago, someone mentioned islamic-attire.com on a thread here that was totally unrelated to BD cover ups. I checked it out and found this lovely: Buy Islamic Abayas, Kaftans, Jilbabs & Hijabs Dresses Online - Islamic Attire Store

    It's hard to tell from the pics on the site, but the embroidery is delicate, there are scatters of beads and sequins throughout and it buttons all the way down the front. It's perfect! I ordered a size up to make sure I'd have plenty of room when wearing circle skirts, but I probably could have gotten away with my normal size.

    Just wanted to share a great find!

    I wonder if they all open down the front, can't tell with the last one.

    Those are nice, too! I'm not sure if they all open down the front, but the company was very responsive to e-mails, so you could ask.
