So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Abayas Are in Vogue

By Enrique Quezmad


The current Bride Show in Abu Dhabi has seen an impressive collection of embellished abayas. Two of them from Oshia Model Designs were ultra luxurious and extremely beautiful and were worth Dh 100, 000 every. Abayas by Smooth Woman, Attractiveness Princess and Queen were as well showcased in this show. Therefore, we see that the world of style has open handedly accepted this ethnic Islamic wear. What originally started off as a standard Muslim wear for females to cover themselves up completely in front of other men, is now been incorporated into the model world as a new style.

Abayas are used to cover all the things under the shoulders, just one's palms and feet are left bare. Traditionally these were obtainable in dark, however , with changing times even the Muslim community has lost convinced of its rigidity and hence, they are too obtainable in vibrant colours these days.,. These are in demand and are very comfortable as well.

How is it different from a Jilbab?

However , an Abaya is somewhat identical to a Jilbab, they have their differences also.,. The variation lies in their sleeves. The sleeves of a jilbab are sewed to the primary shape of the cloak, whereas an abaya is a single piece of cloak. Its cut itself includes the sleeves without stitching it. These have impressive necklines, sleeves and bases with heavy embroideries.

Their patterns

. Several of the regular patterns are:

* They are often produced of light materials, like lexus crepe and satin.

* They may be open front throughout their entire length or they may be completely closed.

* Most of them come in trendy and intricate styles varying shape geometric design to floral ones.

* They might as well be designed with heavy embroidery in gold and silver.

* Numerous of these are as well styled with beads, sequins, multi coloured crystals, and Swarovski gems (for the high end designer ones)
