The Winter Blazer Guide with Stalk Buy Love - Part 1

Am trying to think how many blazers I have ?  To start with , my first coat was burgundy  and then came the black, and white . For years, and for a person who did not come from a fashion background, and worked a 9-5 shift, I did not feel the need to add more blazers in my wardrobe, coz fashion wasn't a weekly thing,and it wasn't a challenge to wear blazers back then. We kept them for fairly conservative space like meetings, formal events , and there were better staples in life to fill our storage than the need to invest in blazers.

Until the late 19th century, women preferred to wear cape style coats . Mink blazers were the first out of the league that represented the wearer from luxury Clan.

Back then fashion still demanded that clothing to be worn as per occasion, and growing number of working women, needed blazers that could be worn to office, which particularly led to development of a few basic styles, that are relevant even today. For eg. the classic trench, the double breasted and the suit jacket etc.
After the World War II Haute Couture aimed at bringing revolutionary styles in blazers, and the coat's length followed the length of the dresses and skirts, hence they became really short (source wikipedia)
Today's women doesn't fail to experiment. Talk about online awareness,the ladies are drawn to thrilling collision of trends and the blazer has gone beyond the boundaries of corporate rooms and power suits. 
If you are one of those who don't think blazers from a fashion point of view,  pause and have an afterthought about places you can take this versatile garment to. A lot of our A-list celebrities are turning heads and declaring fashion moments after moments with blazers. From Red carpet, to airports, to fifth avenue and from Capes, to Shearlings to pleated and even lab style , Blazers have been spotted endlessly around the globe , and the inspiration is plenty.
What's even more innovative is that our Indian designers have revamped the whole blazer notion and left us in a moment of Aww ....when they sent a few models running down the runway wearing blazers with Sarees ? Its official and clearly Blazer cannot give you a Faux Pas moment even if you wound up working from home . 
Today I have teamed up with Stalk Buy Love , to show you how I wore a blazer to a girl's brunch on one foggy Sunday morning. This is Part 1 of my blazer edition for winters, and Part 2 is on its way,just to show you girls how a blazer can uplift any outfit ,be it jeans or even a wintery dress.
I have a soft spot for colour blocking, and today I brought these two colours from the same colour wheel into one outfit, teamed with the blazer in Christmas Red and these deep burgundy Dungarees, all from Stalk Buy Love.These burgundy oxfords also brought in the flavour and a sense of occasion beyond the humble over the knee socks into garnering a fun and flirty Outdoorsiness casual vibe. 
So ladies, If you haven't placed your faith in blazer till now to to take you around for a plenty of occasions, it's time that you do so now even if it means stealing that checkered oversize coat from your boyfriend's closet, or donning  a solid party blazer over that dress.

Flower Hair Updo with Sheer Cape Blouse and Wrap Skirt

Fashion week is over, and its time to share some of my best dressed moments on the blog. It was that time of the month when we got our finger on the fashion pulse.The week struck me completely into redoing fashion differently, and that's when I started playing with my closet, and hair to be more precise. Since I am blessed with a circular face cut and head in retrospect, anything which sits around that part of my asset , looks pretty . A lot of people snapped me on the venue and they made sure that they capped the flower right. I told them it was inspired by the nature, and hence the floral cape /blouse (which btw is from my own label) and this match is kinda seemingly putting everything in place for me.

I decided to play with mono colors ,hence wore this stitched wrap skirt , from House of SBJ which comes with an equally pretty  blouse. But switching things up , made the two separates a total charm and a much better put together look. 

Have a look.Also don't forget to pause and give a moment to these shoes. I know they deserve their own admiration space.

Dress With Sneakers | Fashion Inspiration 2014 | Street Style India

Spring's hottest street style combo is a dress with a sneaker, and I decided to step up my dress look just a smidge and brought these canvas shoes to notice. So If they match Stylistically or color wise, I would say go for it though I am not sure how i feel about the more sportier looking trainers ? Sometimes its the most unlikely things which makes the best combo, and this uncanny cool character which seems to be actually purifying a trend only to be embraced and make a fashion week wave. Not aesthetically appealing but surely they have an enthusiastic wearable appeal . Chanel recently sent haute couture sneakers down the runway, with the whole fashion fraternity talking about it.-So  go ahead and give those back breaking stilettos some rest. Score- I say :)
This Champagne- sand colored jacket was sent over by Rosegal.com .It has a PU lining inside and a slant zipper, which makes it perfect for this kind of early spring charm dressing. It looks and feel more expensive than what it actually costs.  Shipping was pretty fast(12 days) and the item matched the description.Definitely a site to check out, since I found their stuff trendy without being too mainstream.

I got a chance to meet Shilpi from Pink jasmine Styling, who was on her holiday to India, last week. She is a great blogger, with lovely smile and some ideal fashion aesthetics and a new mommy to adorable twins. We discussed things we had in common- ie blogging, and talked about a few other amazing bloggers who leaves us both inspired.

Rock Studs And Mickey Mouse Print | Delhi - Street Style

In case you missed the bombardment on my IG feed about the Cosmo/max event, then this blog post could be for you. I wore this outfit to the Cosmopolitan and Max Fashion Icon Delhi Finale which was held at The Kila, Delhi.It was my first time visiting this place, and I assumed it would be freezing as the fashion show should be outdoors, and I was right. Well It's rewarding if one trust their Gut and that just saved me too from freezing in outdoors as I picked up this Wool sweater to wear.I was in a mood to emancipate the Rock Chic Glam avatar that day, and added a spike cuff to match along the Studs(diy) on my shoulder.I picked up these cute mickey print pants from Bangkok on my last trip,but couldn't find them ever in the unending chaos of my closet clutter.Later I saw them hanging when I was looking out for something else and this outfit happened.Besides unleashing the Rock chic archetype, we had a lil fun shooting these photos too ! I wiped out a whole box of rum chocolates before leaving . Hubs says it reflected in the pics ? Unshackled much ??  Do you think so too ?

Fashion Trends- Animal Head print Dress And a Facinator

Every girl if not love dresses , and I am not an exception . I am always on a look out for  dresses, which offers comfort,and are a bit loose,and accentuates the best of your body.The moment I walked in the store,and saw this dress. somewhere  it made my heart skip a beat because the color palette was perfect,and those lil tiger heads reminded me of zoo and instantly all the risks were taken and suddenly I am talking a big trend which is bounding onto the fall scene ! The only thing to watch out for is getting the right size print to suit your body type and of course exercising a little trend independent fashion judgement topping it off with a bit confidence(and a playful attitude ,if u don't mind that either).

On another note I was sent this beautiful Fascinator by Shilpa from The Young Designers Collective.
