Re: POinters for a non-Pakistani
yeah... tell me about it! I had to explain to my MIL that I wanted everything longer and wider. lol... The shirt longer, the width a bit more, long sleeves, and shorter slits. It was so funny cuz the sample shalwar kameez that I sent to Pakistan apparently is her size! mind you, my MIL is not a skinny person.
It's just going to be weird wearing skin tight clothes where everything just literally pops out. But the good thing is that my husband is really strict about purdah and stuff, so I'd only have to wear t infront of ladies, but I think I'd wrap my dupatta nicely around my head so I'm all covered but also looking somewhat fashionable. lol.... But sis, Snazzy, don't worry about me wearing the hijab nicely, I'm pretty fashionable in my hijabs and abayas, (within limits of course), so insha'Allah she'll approve of it. Makeup... I suck at putting it on, I feel like I look a clown and it just doesn't help me, having low self esteem also doesn't help.. lol... as for facial hair, man, am I lazy with that! but alhumdulillah, my siblings and I have naturally shaped and groomed eyebrows, so I don't have to worry about them. But yeah, I guess it'll take some time to get used to it, and also have to try my best not to take everything to heart.
