September 2017 – The Rare Blooms

Lace & Dark Florals = TOUCHE!

There is something mysteriously sexy about Autumns/Falls! With Halloween, fogs and decidedly unpredictable weather, Autumns have a unique charm to them. Here in India, its the onset of festivities- bright and vibrant times to look forward to!

It is also the time of re-tapping into the potential of dark hues and smoldering contrasts. Its the perfect time to enjoy the duality of nature- summers during daytime and (almost) winters during the night! Its the time to go intense with your style, but not quite! Just like the season, the fashion game is a bit boxed. There is an element of holding back with the style, only to easily slip into the cold-hearted winters! Its the time to be your foxy best, and what better than a combination of LACE and DARK FLORALS to set the tongues wagging?!

Both lace and dark florals have a seductive appeal to them, which is just right for the fall season. Both of them are sensuous, feminine yet strong style statement packages, which is the reason I decided to flirt with this ravishing lace midi dress from ZARA!

I’ll show you how………

Happy Festivities you all!!

love and celebrations

JUMPSUITS & JACKETS

Its amazing how the world of styling picks up hints from the conveniences of everyday life and transforms dressing up. Creativity operates in forms and structures which cannot be curtailed in the scope of imagination alone!

If I have to pick out one piece of clothing which towers above all, it would be JUMPSUITS for me! Fuss free, versatile and super appealing-Jumpsuits are life hacks! And to just think of the many, many ways you can style a Jumpsuit is no joke.

Since Jumpsuits give a relaxed, laid back vibe essentially, I decided to make them a little more formal and assertive by putting together a Jumpsuit and a SUMMER JACKET. And boy! It does complete justice to the phrase POWER DRESSING!

So the star of this post is a lovely rust maroon printed jumpsuit which I got from my favourite store FOREVER 21( no prizes for guessing this one!). Its a great cotton based summer wear, spaghetti strapped jumpsuit which is so casual, I could literally live in it. To make things a bit more fun and chic, I added a Blush Summer satin jacket, simply b’cuz I adore contrasts! And the result is for you all to see……

Hope you all liked this look. Comment below and let me know your take on it!

See you guys super soon

hugs and kisses

That GO-TO BLUE Number!

Hey you all amazing people! The weather in this part of the Northern Hemisphere is slowly beginning to show the Autumn Colours! (Fall for my friends in the US) The rich delicacy of the Autumn winds is brewing with full gusto, and yet we are caught right in the middle. You know, when its summers in the mornings and (almost) winters in the evenings! Talk about beautiful contradictions!

Well the weather aside, I am going to be talking about this beautiful Cobalt Blue Dress that I happened to purchase online a couple of years backs, yet it still freshens my looks, no matter how many times I wear it! A lovely DOROTHY PERKINS made, this calf length dress is a perfect fit, with a beautiful neckline. Its a great option for a business meeting, brunch date or evening drinks and the colour is absolutely flattering!

So as always, let me take you through the look one by one…….. Come on in….

See you soon my lovelies!!

Stay happy and in Love

The Fashion Chameleon called Sonam Kapoor !

We all have our favourite fashion moments. We might just head over to our fashion icon’s feed on Instagram for it or maybe see some live fashion inspo walk by you at a coffee shop or it could just be dazing at your ridiculously great looking self in the mirror! Who knows what surprise life throws at you and that completely changes your style game!

One name which has completely changed the Indian Fashion scenario is Sonam Kapoor! She has consistently upped her fashion game with every new appearance. To me, Sonam Kapoor is an absolute style chameleon, one who can adapt to ever changing styles and silhouettes. Sonam has given a fresh and vibrant lease to Indian Fashion scene by being an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary. Some of her style statements are true blue extension of the Modern Indian Woman who loves fluidity , and yet stays close to her roots.

To me, Sonam Kapoor defines the confident, classy Indian Woman who isn’t afraid to experiment with her aesthetics! Of course, She is here to stay and conquer!

Out of the countless amazing styles Sonam Kapoor has given to the fashion world, I am listing below a few of my favourites!

Kiss me Hard before you go…. Summertime Sadness!

Helllooo Lovelies! Hows your sunday comin along? Are doing something fun or are you taking a backseat and letting the universe do the talking?

Well I am definitely not relying on the universe to get on with my next post. I mean when you gotta post, you gotta post!

So this one post I have been meaning to bring to you guys since ages, but somehow I think now is the right time to talk about it, just when the last dregs of summer are giving way to the autumn wilderness!

Speaking of summer specials, this season I developed a rather striking taste for the CITRINE HUES. I am officially a fan! What a pretty range of colours!

So in this post I am going to speak about this sexy little citrus dress which I got from FOREVER 21 and I haven’t stopped gushing about it ever since! You don’t believe me? Have a look……

This strappy satin citrus FOREVER 21 dress is an ease to carry off! Its not clingy and gives you just the right amount of sex appeal to personalise it! I paired this dress with my muted gold ZARA pumps for a subtle look. You can go bold by pairing it up with tangerine or burgandy or even bottle green! Trust me the colour is a treat to the eyes!!

Hope you enjoyed the look as much as I did! Lemme know in the comments below how you feel about it!

happiness

How to Ace Prints together!

Most of us like to take it easy when pairing two prints together. I know the idea of putting together two different prints sounds chaotic and overbearing, but it necessarily doesn’t have to be so! Print on Print is such a versatile way of dressing up- I mean you can show off two of your favourite prints in one go… ( if that isn’t incredible, I don’t know what is!)

So to give you all a fair idea for starters, I have decided to address this issue head on. One doesn’t need to be as scared of prints you know! There are certain looks which look great when done together. For instance Polkas and Stripes look lovely together and so do Florals and Polkas. For that matter even Stripes and Polkas work very well together!

For this post I went with something slightly different yet basic! See for yourself….

Checks and Stripes

Pairing checks and stripes is the most non-fussy way to wear print on print. Also it goes a long way to say that this combination is a classic. Since my pairing was grounded in a dark zone, I decided to brighten the look with Burgundy Pumps from FOREVER 21 and a mysteriously vibed burgundy lippy!

Hope you all liked my take on the print/print look! Let me know in the comments below..

Kiss Me Polka!

There is nothing a healthy dose of Polkas cannot fix! Today I am going to be talking about how refreshingly charming wearing polka dots can be! I am pretty sure each one of us has worn some version of it at some point or the other. With me, the obsession flatly refuses to die down!

Polkas scream merry, happy-go-lucky- young vibes! They also speak class when done classily! Of course, they are retro, all things nice and fun. I believe its a super stylish tribute to the 60’s

FUN FACT: Polka dots were traditionally used in the clothing of flamenco dancers and performers! Howzzat!!

This navy cold shoulder polka dress is a lovely purchase. Navy, so like Black is such a flattering colour; it looks great on everybody! For this look, I decided to go all contrast-y with tangerine pumps from DORORTHY PERKINS!

Tell me your Polka dots stories in the comments below!
