This elegant cream abaya Cream & Brown Abaya for $55.99 USD [let me know if you have had any experiences ordering from this company] made me think about Donna Karan (and thus New York) and I think it would look elegant with this beige niqab Beige Oval Niqab 3 Layers - Eye Mesh - Nose String for $9.99 GBP and these flats http://www.charlotterusse.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3435169 for $18.99 USD, as well as black satin gloves and tights (for the cool new york weather). If you are a munaqaba, would you wear it? And I DON'T want any of the-black-is-the-only-halal-colour niqabis commenting:D. I mean you can, but I don't regard your opinion the same way, because it is not based solely in Islam, no offence meant.

This abaya was the first one that I saw when I came across their site a few weeks ago. I was like, "Oooo!" ^_^. I have my days when Khaleeji Noire rox, but I'm a colourful person and a hopeless colourholic sooo.... um, yeah. hehe ^_^.
I'd a stylin' munaqabah! ^_^.

P.S.: I seriously need to up my bag game...
Though any of the niqabi looks you can wear with the matching shayla that comes with the abaya instead of niqab:D It is just hard to find niqabs that match the abayas since they aren't sold in sets so I am always going to include a niqab if one matches the set (not plain black ones) to help some girls out. I hope you don't mind. Please don't mind!:D
Here is a ruling by Albani
Is it permissible for women to wear high-heeled shoes?
This is not permissible. It involves resembling the disbelieving women, or the wicked women. It has its origins amongst the Jewish women before Islaam. When one of them wanted to attend a gathering where her lover was present, she would wear a pair of high shoes for him to see her, being taller. Then after a time, those became high-heeled shoes. Further, that type of shoe changes a woman’s way of walking, causing her to tilt from left to right, and therefore, the wicked and unbelievers choose this type of shoe. Therefore, a Muslim woman following the Sharee’ah (Islaamic Law) should not wear high-heeled shoes; especially since many times it causes her to fall!

Hmm, maybe sometime you can do a California, or Los Angeles look?
And Allah knows best! :)
