Reply #39: You sort of dress to wards what the custom is.

I lived in Saudi and put on a long wrap and sort of covered my hair. It was their country after all. Besides that the long big robes are very cool as you can wear what you want under them. I still find it odd that their are signs on doors of business to say what you can wear if you come into the store. You would think people would just know those things. I will say I was sure glad my mother was modern enough not to put us into those very bad pink stocking that girls were just getting out of wearing that were held up by some type harness. They were cotton and just bad. We were so lucky as we shopped a lot in Can. so we had all these great knee socks from Eng. So much for the up tight 30's and 40's I guess.
