No, I don't order from Sahar. I have the benefit of being 40 minutes away from Shahrzad and the bellydancestore.com!!

Re: My First Sahar Okasha - sooo sexy

Okay ladies, I promise this is the last one...for a little while anyway! I do have another one on layaway!!! LOL!!! I am such a junkie!

Anyway, this one started out as the "base model". Unadorned bra (although this one has the regular shape, not the halter or floating style), simple skirt with a large rhinestone buckle at one hip. I removed the buckle and sewed the side side at the hip area, then gathered it a bit and added golden shadow Swarovski crystals in two sizes across the top/waistline and on the gathered section above the slit. I also added the crystals along the top line of the bra and then gathered the arm bands and added crystals. Not sure if this is the way it will stay or if I will add more to it, but here it is!



Sorry for the boob shot, but this picture shows the shape of the bra better than the first pic and shows the stones!

Thank you! I had fun dressing it up!! The pictures really don't capture the warmth of the color or the sparkle of the fabric.

Re: My First Sahar Okasha - sooo sexy

OMG! Look at how tiny you're getting! The costume looks great. I vote for leave it fairly simple. The lines of the costume are elegant that way.

Re: My First Sahar Okasha - sooo sexy

so, I accidentally get a black sahar with a magic floating bra.

I thought, dammit! they sent the wrong one! crap, now I'll have to ship it back, bla bla bla bla...


hmmmm, lemme jes try dis ting on.

cut to kina, in a bennie hillesque routine searching the box and all it's contents for the other part of the halter, nothing. puts bra cup over boob, pulls strap up and around shoulder, loses bra cup. puts bra cup back over boob, same thing happened. bra strap snaps off slaps kina across face as moving in rapid speeds to reduce the insane amount of stretch put on fabric not meant to ever contain D's.

OK, hook strap to bra cup THEN place over boob.

Great! one side done!..

Grab opposite strap, pull over shoulder down side. Hmmm, how do I get it through my arm?

puzzles out a little while, trying many interesting new yoga pretzel variations until bra strap is attached.

steps back.



is that me?

hot damn! and you know, voluptuos AND perky do sound well together!

photo shoot was tonight, maybe some good pictures forthcoming, although I think I won't be allowed out of the house without an armed guard in this thing!

Re: My First Sahar Okasha - sooo sexy

OMG, I had a photo shoot last night and wore this for a couple of the pics. The photographer was amazing, delightful, kind, even tempered, and was just soooooooo good to work with.

She got some very nice shots, although the one that shows the bra is actually not my favorite, but there are 2 that I LOVE.

So, I'm going to wait until she's done with her work on the pics and get permission to post them, don't wanna make one of the best photographers I've worked with mad!

But, they will be posted!

Re: My First Sahar Okasha - sooo sexy

I was adjusting my red & black for a gig tonight and I thought I'd take a photo while I tried it on. morning photos :-)

I just liked this first photo, even though it doesn't show the costume that well.


This one shows the costume better.
