Things To Do In China, Shopping | Foshan | Guangzhou | Shanghai . OOTD- CHINA STREET STYLE

Bringing the back with a bang look. If you missed me then you probably know I was in China, and if you didn't then maybe I am in danger for overestimating your interest in my blog.

Just so you know , my summers were more inherently summery than yours , more Disney oriented, and more Chinese food driven.

That's why I am back here to delicately start a conversation on what you should do in China . After squeezing in about about three cities - Foshan, Guangzhou and Shanghai in my 12 day itinerary, and attracting a diverse blend of Chinese with our street style shoots, I am here to share a little  tour diary of things you should do in China. 

I got a couple of few Insta stories ( which was a new Instagram feature added just a day before I left which also saved me the hassle of taking photos within one minute of arriving giving me much photo posting clarity. Blessed !!!! 

The best feeling was the great feedback given by those on the receiving end of those founts of stories, and interest in my travel, which encouraged me to hack into VPN and enable Instagram coz every other world social platform is barred in China.

While a lot of you may feel that I am biting on the fresh figs of life, which actually I was, but came with a lot of walking and a big big language barrier. 

Our landing port was Guangzhou, and  it took us an hour drive to check in at Foshan. 

Just so you know, Foshan is a veritable destination and worldwide hub for furniture, lights and for everything your home needs. 

Visited the Chimelong water park, (Asia's No3 , )which was a waste for a non adventurous person like me, especially when those thrilling water rides scare me to death.

Nevertheless its a heaven for kids, and my daughter had a Ball and she made our money back with freqyent display of excitement.

I wore a simple cotton  dress with lace trims by Stalk Buy Love, and my cone bag and the  Floral sandals from Sammydress Clothing  being the highlight of the day were praised by many as I ventured outside our Hotel Fortuna ,to shoot some street style. 

Must recommended place to stay, as the food is crazy and if you are a Vegetarian like me, you won't be starved.

The minute we started shooting, it looked like everyone needed my attention, as around 20 people took out their phones and started recording the terrific stuff we do in India(take street photos ). This ice cream cone bag caught the fancy of everyone , which arrived in 7 days (super quick delivery ) from the website . Despite being the centre of attraction at approx 9 A.M, I also did weird things on special request, for e.g posing to eat the ice-cream.

Language was no barrier then as sign language and friendly laughs ruled and after a dozen Chinese got what they wanted and took my exclusive expressions home, I am now wondering ,if they ruined my groove at my expense ??

Coming back to Foshan, the lighting city and a few shopping malls at Zhongshan are a must visit if you are shopping for home/ interiors. 

Leaving you all with truck load of pics. 

Next up is things to do in Shanghai and a lot of shopping finds.

Ciao xx

The Kaftan Story

Somethings in fashion are still invoked as a symbol of exoticism. Believe you me, when an outfit is exotic, and wearer friendly, you don't think twice, rather blink twice, but just buy it in the moment.

A garment that tastes like summer, regal in its own way, and is sure to give u a flavour of wanderlust is Kaftan. I mean just look at it, will u? I can now officially float. Its casual and loose ,yet can be easily be dressed up for more glam.

I wonder why styles like these aren't pushed in the maternity section ? Why the celebrity Mom cover girl on a Parenting magazine always have to wear dungarees or maxis? Although this post is not about preaching motherhood, but I have stalked enough maternity magazines in my life, to reach to a conclusion, where nothing could be as comfy as this. 

I loved spilling out of bounds for once  and accessorize this look, to keep the free-spirited nature of the  garment in flow. It helped me paint a picture of poise . The plus was that we seized these pics at dawn. Delhi is always synonymous with India Gate, and we all know that it is an attraction in its own. I had been waiting patiently for months to capture the beauty of the place at sunrise. Let me know if u like the pictures ?

Purple Lips | Lipsticks Trends that You Must Try This Spring

After my sporadically done Blue lips fame, it was time to dive right into a color experiment and haphazardly open up to a whole rainbow and do a whacky post yet again ! I was determined to push my boundaries a bit further and come up with high impact lips. This Lilac is just the right shade for an Indian tone . Its a neutral without being one , it can be light and it can be dark, and you can play with the tone just as you feel like. Be vampy with double swipe or be feminine with a single one, just whatever rocks your boat.
Yes you would get some odd looks on the streets , but whatever , you know u are Rad, and there is nothing that could take that feeling from you .
There are so many ways I could just breeze through summers with these more subversive than tidy unabashed lips. Its just like the easiest thing to throw on after the summer heat kicks over. Case In Point : U don't know what you have got , until you tried it . But more than anything its about the trial and error, and a constant revolution between the posh n proper on one side and the punk and Provocateurs on the other, and then moving on to see what the Sartorial Janta likes and don't ? Lucky for me, you guys love my coming together of two poles , appreciate,leave generous love and all this gives me a creative license to thwack n shake the fashion world(thudd thuddd thudd lol)
Besides its not only these lips I lathered on. These bomber jackets are a trendy rendition to this pleasant Delhi weather. And for this sartorial climate that encourages most of us to wear whatever they want , I am loving every bit of it layering with whatever I could grab on and take my thangsss to the next level.

Indian Fashion Week Street Style Blog - Lookbook | Full Skirt and Sequin Jacket

In no particular order, this was one of the outfits from Wills Lifestyle fashion Week , the ultimate spot and fashion circus for fashion obsessed to sport, what they deem is in trend fashion wise or maybe not.

Funny though it may sound, it almost seemed like an adult Prom with the all Gup-Shup on who is wearing what, and who is pretty close to the runway curve ? So you like , what am wearing . hmmm ! The rain of compliments have the usual age-old questions - Which designer are you wearing today ? Whatever happened to street style and mixing and matching of irreverent street finds ? It really daunts on me that even the street style has the term "STREET "- A sidewalk style which need not necessarily be made up of catwalk clothes with illustrious labels ? So why this question anyway ? I think that the idea of mixing luxury and mass market fashion is very modern.I have proved my love to pairing designer labels with street picked stuff, even if its only in the accessory part. Its just my style, and a new era in fashion for me, which I am exploring and  Seriously there are no- rules :)
