Sisters in the Office: My Journey with Professional Abaya

Assalamu Alaikum! I just started working at a big company, and I’m honestly a bit lost on how to find modest, corporate-friendly abayas. In uni, I’d slip off my abaya on campus since it was all-girls, but now I'm out and about more. The daily rush to pick an abaya, a breathable outfit underneath, and a matching hijab can feel like a lot, Alhamdulillah. Sometimes I see others just grab a blouse and pants and go, but for me, it’s more layers both in clothes and intention. I do this for Allah, and I don’t want to compromise. But ya ukhti, any advice from working Muslimahs? How do you keep it easy and professional? Just want to hear your thoughts, not here for any comments about our choice being anything but freeing, insha'Allah.
