Z's Henna Party

Ahh a beautiful girl she is.. inside and out... very pure mashaallah... and she looked absolutely gorgeous tonight... mashaallah!

Tonight was her henna party, Sunday is the wedding... May Allah bless her with a happy marriage and family... May she be to her partner, what she expects of him, and vice-versa...

Well, I on the other hand was quite busy today. I have a huge sale coming up at the shop tomorrow, so I had to get them ready. Still not all ready, so I'm hoping I can wake up early to get everything ready before customers come in inshaallah. :)

I am so tired and sleepy... I thought I would share that important piece of info with you. Pray that I don't share any further details... about nature's calling etc etc... LOL

Yeah I know it's not funny, but I told you I was tired. See, now you can't blame me for being rude... or cute?... :)))

Anyhow... I seriously didn't know what to wear. Henna party's are the worst for me, because you generally want to do something different, as it gives you the opportunity to dress/look out of the ordinary since they are ladies only events.

I just did the same old same old with a small detail and a 'touch' of heavy eye make-up. LOL

Would you like to see what I wore? Well, scroll down...

Just a LBD with a chiffon shrug. I used a large brooch to tie the shrug at the collar to give it a different look and to jazz it up  a little. Looks a little more ordinary when the front is left open as it actually should be. :) I tried to wear black trousers under, but seriously looked awful. So I played it down a little with ma jeans. My black maxi would have looked awesome, but the cowl neck collar was not suitable for the style. I tried it the night before, so yeah...

My purple/black eye make-up with a dash of white to open up the eyes. The colours did not show up properly due to the flash.. and also because the eye-shadows were shimmery...

My niece Ayse's make-up (by moi) turned out really gorgeous. We used black and gold on the eyes and soft red on the lips... but once again, the photos do not do justice :/

These were quickly selected accessories from my stash. It's good to have a large range as you can just pick and choose whatever :P My shoes are from China. They are cheapos, but so hot and comfy, I love em! The heels did not come up in the photos, but they are gold. Hmm, my accessories were all silver, but I thought whatever, I am gonna wear the shoes as you couldn't really see the heels under my long jeans. :))))

Purple shrug: Autograph

LBD: Ojay

To the wedding I will be wearing something new and something old. I just gotta get the right colour hijab for it and I hve none left in that colour at the shop. :( Hmmm, natural make-up... and I'm still wondering about the accessories. Anyhow, you will have to wait and see.

Be inpired and inspire... I would love it if you would share some of your outfits, outfit coordination tips, photos, etc. etc. Drop me a line at edbdesigns@gmail.com

Wog Girl!
