HIJAB HEAVEN!!!

WOW I've found hijab heaven at http://www.muslimbase.com/ ! Now, I don't usually buy from overseas because I'm impatient and scared of international shipping - although there are tons of great hijab stores in the UK - but I will make an exception because this store has just about every style and color of hijab and caps you might need (and international shipping is low)! These two above they call "Lebanese Hijabs"..do they wear these in Lebanon I wonder? I don't recall that when I was there but that was a few years ago. Maybe they are made in Lebanon? Whatever - they're cool, and I know it looks different than what we're used to, but I think these kind of styles may just catch on in the next few years because they just seem modern and chic, maybe even more professional...

Now check out these lovely colors below: can you believe that these two scarves are between $2-4 each!!? Yippee!

And they have tons of Kuwaiti hijabs, both the "joint" style (ends are joined, twisted before pulling over your head in a drapey fashion like below) and the loose end style (where one long piece is attached to the under cap to wrap around).

One more style that's unique to this store called the Igal style I'll cover in my next post....CHECK IT OUT!
