thnks amy!!! ... I have read this forum.. there are alot of srgument in that.. but I wanted to avoid argument and try to get idea from other people living here of where they get their clothes or if they know a special boutique in pak/US

i wasnt born in US but i came here when i was 14...and in the begnin it was hard for me to blend in....n u guyz r rite they dunt have any shirts here tht could fit in with islamic laws so i just wear long tshirts and if the length is not enough i just wear coat over it...i ear shalwar kamiz at home and sumtyms i wear it when im goin out...its our dress i dunt care wht others are thinkin....my parents are really strict and i think they should be.

how about gauzy type shirts? they are thin, so they let you breathe, but they cover you up. if it's too thin, you can wear camisole underneath. when i go to india, i live in these and cotton trousers/cargo pants. i also like t-shirts with long skirts. american eagle, gap, and forever 21 are some good places to find these.

the story of my life...lol

yea itz hard...but there r always ways around it.

Long skirts is a good alternative cuz on skirts u can get away w/ shorter shirts cuz skirts are loose.

next...sleeveless shirts with a light front-open shirt/jean jacket or those short things with only sleeves (dont know wat itz called 😳)

orr...long shirts...the ones worn with leggings..are in fashion nowadays....instead of leggings u can wear it w/ jeans....those shirts are always long enough

orr....u can get fabric and if u or sum1 @ home knows how to sew...make it urself....or get it made frm pakistan.

if u have other suggestions...plz share
