I love Egyptian cotton jalibiyias. I wear them around the house and fancier ones for special occasions. I don't wear them out as jilbab very often because in my husband's culture they are expressly an inner garment but I think they work perfect as a jilbab. These are some of the ones I love. Right now this site
Al Jilbab is having a small summer sale, and if you buy the less expensive ones, you can get four for $100 +shipping. I miss Oman where I could buy four for $30.00 :D The shipping is what is expensive with this site, not the garments.
Above is how I tend to wear my cotton jalibiyias when I wear them as hijab (but with more chest coverage from the hijab).
And when I wear it at home I tend to pair it with more jewelry like crazy earrings, fun party make up, and my hair styled nicely.

Isn't that the lead singer from the 80s band Dead or Alive? Ugh, I shouldn't have said that. But dang, that's a LOT of makeup. heh
Those abayas are cheap around here but they are just a little too "festive", I guess is the word, for me to wear out. Plus I know a lot of people look at them as house dresses, not something to wear out. I had a few but they shrunk in the wash. Oops.
great post can't wait for the rest!
Oh, I was only joking around, not being serious about that! :)
Thanks.
