Ara was not phased nor afraid to be in Knockturn alley, she was pureblood of course and skilled with her wand should the need arise. She casually walked into Twilfit and Tattings Upscale Robes, wanting some extra dress robes for her father's lavish parties at their manor. She loved buying dress robes, the shopping somewhat calmed her, which she needed as she recently moved to Britain with her family and transferred to Hogwarts as a sixth year to continue her studies.
Ara strolled through the aisles looking for any goddess styled dress robes and spotted the section where her gaze fell upon a gorgeous hunter green with gold sequined trim. It was perfect. Her hand grazed over the material, it was a delicate and comforting silk, skimming over her skin. Best of all it was her size, yet she still needed to try it on. Ara walked to the changing room and slipped into the dress, and turned around to look in the mirror, it was the perfect fit, flowing and caressing her skin. It showed a modest amount of skin at the back but it was elegant at the same time.
She smiled to herself and changed back to her flowing black circle day dress which was a silk three quarter sleeved dress with a modest plunge v neckline subtly edged in green silk and a fitted waistband and sheer silken sleeves. This was her casual always elegant. It was how she was brought up, she had no regrets.
She walked through the aisle and found a similar black dress with silver and rhinestone trim to the green which she had draped over her left arm. It was a definite yes. She walked through the store and found a few more formal dress robes and day dress robes for her casual wear. Satisfied that mother and father would approve.
