Day to Night Outfits: Floaty Florals








With December being the month of holidays and get-togethers, we wanted to bring you an ensemble that would take you from day to night with minimal effort, without wardrobe dilemma.   Choosing versatile pieces that can be easily dressed up or down is the key for day to night outfits. They are a perfect blank canvas for personal expression. With an addition of few stylish accessories trending this season, you are good to go. 

 Just to show how easy it is, we have paired one our favourite this season the Efflorescence Abaya with a fashionable blanket coat. The high street is bursting with stylish cover-ups, perfect for keeping out the cold. Capes and oversized blankets are the ultimate throw on and go this season. Make sure to take advantage of this trend. It is an absolute for all the modest dressers out there!

The Efflorescence Abaya has a classic cut and features a mixture of black velvet and silver ribbed flowers. Styled with beautiful jewel pumps and soft black tote makes this a practical yet chic winter look. Shimmer your way into the evening by simply swapping for heels and a sequenced bag  for an on trend evening look. Sequins and embellished detailing is a huge trend this season. Don't be afraid to add sparkle to your black gowns.

Cold weather doesn't mean it is all doom and gloom for our winter wardrobes. We are loving the current trends and with the sales on early we cannot wait to hit the high street. We hope to have left you feeling fabulous both day and night with our Abayas :)

Abaya & Sleeves: How to add an instant statement to your Abaya

S L E E V E S...

we absolutely love them. Worn in addition to daily clothing sleeves provide extra coverage for your arms. They are an ideal fill for the empty wrist space when our clothing appears too short. Perfect to wear with sleeveless maxis and tops. However we are so used to seeing plain sleeves that we only consider them as basic essentials. Saying that though things just got interesting.
 If you are like us, constantly looking for ways to transform your every day abayas, you will love our post today. Here are some gorgeous sleeves /arm warmers designs. We have matched them with our favourite Abaya Central abayas.  Read on and take your pick...

Are brooches making a comeback? According to Oscar De La Renta they certainly are. Collection autumn/winter 2012- 2013 displayed dazzling jewelled brooches on models during London Fashion Week last month. They mirrored prints on dresses, coats and skirts. Thou some even appeared more than once to compliment the overall designs.
If brooches are a must have accessory for you,  here are some creative ways (from the collection) to add a dash of style to your Abaya (or non- Abaya) Outfits ;)

Brooch Belts


 Decorative Collars and Shirts



 Satin head bands or an embellished necklace


Jackets and cardigans






Dresses - towards the neckline















Adorned outer garments - We simply love the creativity below
