Plaid That Is

With the return of the  checkered culture, I am more than happy to announce that I got my laptop back, which has some of the long forgotten pictures that I always wanted to post, but couldn't because of some or the other major technical mishap. It was an unanticipated recovery , but who doesn't love some extra content ? In today's post you would see ,whirling through the time when traditional met modern and delivered a chic look of a different stripe. The photos may date a few months old, but I like to get absorbed in this new era of Plaid- ness - rather than Plain-ness .

A classic shirt dress is one of the signature downtown piece of clothing and it's even crept into the runway by no crook, also known for the old grown love of all things comfy and can be literally mined for its familiarity . Juxtapose several trends together and this piece of clothing gets a new lift rendering high fashion in  the most legible and consumable forms. The trends I am talking about here are in the little extra details delivered via sleeves ,in the form of a creative bow knot which can be moved back and forth or played around for a more cutting edge show. Todays outfit is dramatic, I know I know, the sunnies kinda steal away the show , but not outrageous ? I don't know- But you have the liberty to Judge away  ...
Though rules are not hard, the trick for mixing plaids is quite obvious . I love mixing things in all my glory, but here is a rule - You don't want to mix plaids of  same sizes or colour, but feel free to experiment with other prints. In my case my floral larger than life sunnies are a fashion extra , more on the stylish front than on a rakish one.When you see something thats been put together in patterns you have to take a moment and look and see where it works ?
I like it when high fashion aesthetics are fused into accessible and relatively affordable clothes that has at least a little kinship with high-end streetwear which kinda serve as bridge and lets you cross that line where nothing becomes not (buyable ).
With New York Fashion week 2017 (NYFW2017 ) and Milan Fashion Week 2017 (MFW2017) just ending up and India fashion week 2017 around the corner, I see plaids trend has been tossed out and street style witnessed some most amazing styles and mixes which were better than the runway and grabbed my eyeballs. While I may find my realm in a school girl inspired plaids at the moment, and still adding more to the shopping cart with another window open on my device,  you don't forget to bounce off in the comments and tell me what kind of a plaidster you are ?

Cape And Tassels

Today's outfit is a chalk full of ultra femme paired with beautifully rendered conversation starters. Why should a women not love statement pieces ? Be it a statement dress or jewellery , surrealism with modest elements evokes a homage to beautifully rendered brave looks.

This cape dress with pretty florals worn at fashion week last month brings a new meaning to outerwear which has a mix of both parisian and street, is the forefront of good taste we are fed with at sometime.

The look is pretty basic, but the detailing pushes the edges out. I worked along these statement earrings and a simple cuff  available online at wildflower.inc to lend a small bit of ornamentation to the whole look, which does not take attention away from either the outfit or the jewellery, rather complement each other and deliver intelligent mix and tweak for the chic to happen .

Although this look appears effortless, but to tell you the truth, there is a very smart amount of calculation behind  it to get it right. I decided to piece together everything, thinking that I would be wearing the look from AM- PM hence I dare not ERR on the most practical side ie. to incorporate flats .Although  nothing in the world could part me away from the most comfy shoes in my closet (more ideas for you)but the lightening truth is that I feel I could have enhanced the look better   with a nice pair  of criss cross straped sandals as well.

Introducing Wildflower.Inc

The jewellery at wildflower is instinctively desirable, comes at a great price, looks ultra modern, rich and expensive (while being not ),and bring a new meaning to the idea of freshly inspired trend notes and should be a included in every trendy  ,for the love of fashion girls who also loves a loaded stake of her accessory repertoire.

Mixing Prints/Retro Look /Fashion Street Style

I love to take a break from cooking time to time , and just order food online ! Its pretty easy when you have last minute unexpected guests, and you don't wanna run around but spend time hosting them instead. I have ordered twice from Foodpanda,already and I am happy over the fact, that they are adding up more and more of my favorites restaurants to choose from . Plus their last minute deals are irresistible coz I get them delivered straight to my mail box .I once scored a free movie ticket when I last ordered my food from them. Win-Win u see !!
Coming to today's outfit, I love the playful vibe these kind of dresses offer and can be effortlessly dressed down or up. In case you may just notice, I have mixed a lot of prints here.
Stripes + leopard print are enough to engage one in the boldness while my slutty  shoes are happy to have a colorful romance with their new mistress a.k.a my neon laces !! If you may wish then check out how these shy babies looked in their early innocent days, by taking a peek at my Instagram feed  My bag (earlier declared lost) seems to be thanking me enough for the extra effort which I lately put in bid adieu my old luggage, and it apparently got united with me from the world of the abandoned !!! Delighted to war with the leopard on  prowl this printed Elle Satchel  gives a fine distraction to this printed maze look, making one print talk louder than the others;flooding the eyes of passerby's with flickers in their eyes  .

What do we get when we cross Bubbling bloggers, hearty snacks and fashionable clothes ? Yes u got that right ! A fun filled fashionable evening at a fashionable spot- Elle Fashionwear!! Too much fa-fa fashion ? ha !

Elle fashionwear, the French fashion brand, launches its Spring Summer 2013 collection, embodying the spirit of the new age fashionista who believes in creating her own style but is also chic, feminine and experimental. The latest collection comprises breezy day dresses, coloured denims, flirty jumpsuits and chic accessories to make you every inch the summer diva. The sleek silhouettes, unique colour combinations and elegant designs incorporated translate the line into timeless French fashion.

If your style composes any of these above, I think u should check out Elle stores  ! The collection was bold, fabric was summery , colors were pastels and the feeling was feminine ! We were asked to style a few outfits  from their collection while the specialized team did our hair n makeup ! They had this funky tomato print maxi dress, which I had fallen for, too bad my size,in the color I wanted was Out of stock ! 

I think my hair n makeup looked way better before I went in for the makeover, and was not impressed with what  they did to me in this pic !

And I loved these Botanical themed shorts.. they were way too comfy to an extent that I told them that I could totally wear it for my workout !! That is the comfort I am talking about -u know !

Chocolates and floral postcards c/oElle  and some Macaroons I got on my way  back

And this is what Elle fashionwear has to say about their Collection:

The Spring Summer collection is all about an optimistic, liberal and unique persona with designs revolving around six themes relevant to the season.

The Botanical theme unveils a journey to the unexplored dimensions of botanical life. Green is the main colour in this theme with touches of red, yellow and grape purple. Experience pristine beauty with ‘Clarity’; pieces borne from this idea define sophisticated casual wear. Along with breezy and feminine key detailing of sheer tonal layering, the styles in this collection display strong graphic colour blocked silhouettes. The Summer Party has ultra-feminine summer dresses in soothing pastels as well as rich and bright colours aiming to keep your days as chic as your nights.

Add a bit of elegant quirkiness with the Give Me Blue inspiration. Sport playful prints from the bygone sailing era such as old maps, vintage letters, compass and pocket watches all on a serene spectrum of blue. Adding a burst of colour are splashes of geranium pink and banana crepe yellow. Watch naïve romance and a hippy free spirit come together to create Nutopia in a delicate interplay between over-exposed colours, heady florals and lace.

Feel the warmth of summer with a bright ensemble reflecting the Colour Theory. Pale pastels blend seamlessly with vibrant and bright colours completed by multi-coloured prints and clean textures.

The Spring Summer 2013 collection is available across all ELLE stores in the country as well as on ellefashionwear.in
