Some of their hijjab cost only $9.95, so if I had chosen one of those I could have had it for free, but I opted for a more expensive one and paid the difference.)
Anyway, my order arrived today, which was the 6th day after I placed it, so I felt good about how fast it came. The two skirts are both made of a really nice twill fabric (the same type of that nice pants such as Dockers or Gap pants are made of). They're opaque enough to not show the outlines of my legs which is important for Egypt. What's more, the skirts and tunics are cute enough that they COULD be something I would wear casually here in the U.S. when I want to be a bit dressier than blue jeans but still casual - for example, at a hafla. The fit of the garments is perfect - at the time I ordered, I compared my measurements against the size chart on the web site and chose sizes accordingly, and the actual garments suit the size chart exactly right. (A tip to anyone ordering tunics - be sure to consider your hip size when ordering tunics, because they're long enough that they need to fit over your hips.)
So, attractive products, well made, good fit, fast delivery = satisfied customer.
I plan to take these items plus one shalwar/kameez set that I already have with me to Egypt this year.
