Excuse us while we pack a bag or six.
If you’re anything like us, your ‘must travel’ list of destinations is about as long as your arm.
There are tropical islands, culture-rich cities, there are wilderness areas and picturesque seaside towns. It can be hard to know how to prioritise them.
Hijabi model Halima Aden has just made that a little bit easier, though. She’s currently in Turkey, and it looks so good we’re mentally halfway to the airport.

It looks like she’s made a bit of a splash, too. Check out this video of Aden’s arrival:
Adorable.
The 20-year-old Somali-American model was in town for an event with Turkish designer Raşit Bağzıbağlı and modest e-tailer Modanisa.
Here she is in a design from Bağzıbağlı’s collection for the site:
Look at that poise. We love it.
Aden also experienced some of that famous Turkish hospitality.
“Nothing but love for the Turkish people,” she captioned this shot of her alongside a horse-drawn carriage.
Another highlight of Aden’s trip? She’s catching up with Turkish supermodel Tulin Sahin.
The beauties met at Dubai Modest Fashion Week in December, and quickly hit it off. It looks like they’re having a ball on Sahin’s home turf.
If you’re loving Aden’s outfit, we have good news. It’s from Australian modest brand Asiyam, and they ship worldwide.
Oh, and that gorgeous building Aden is posing in front of? That’s the Ciragan Palace Kempinski.
So we’ve got our dream hotel sorted for our Istanbul trip, too. See you there.
