Lace, Animal print And A Kurta Makeover-Blogger Inspired

There is no set of rules or people from whom I take Inspiration ! At times its magazines, or internet-Mostly Pinterest and Polyvore ,or our own fellow bloggers. Basically I just see what I like and work my own style from that .
Today's outfit is roused from our very own desi blogger ! This blogger recently put an ironic spin in the number of ways a basic kurta can be worn  ! With every post of her's on the kurta series she really left me aww with her Sartorial creativity !  I loved all her variations and original twist , and am sure you'll love them too !
Yes,she is Abhilasha from Looking good feeling fab blog !  It was actually a visual feast for me to see her switch that kurta  and creating looks which were edgy and preppy at one moment while girly and formal the next !
Hey Abhilasha ! Thank you for making it easy for me to pave my way for this post !
So stealing this original idea of hers and taking the liberty to add my own twist to the kurta makeover , here is my take on the version ! I got this one from Bangkok about 2 years back and have worn it to death ! With that I mean ,I could see it wearing out this time ! Gave it a rough fold on the hem from the front and left it hanging from the back to give a mullet effect, and Voila ! A simple look in minutes is ready to be served on the blog !

Do check out Abhilasha's Blog for more kurta makeovers, and let me know if you would love to see me doing a few more spins as well !!(stylish fashion dress wear/ indian fashion)
Will you try this look too ? I would love to know from ya'll !!

Be Sun Smart- Styling A Sun Dress And Sun Hat

Like any other girl, I too hate having sun on my skin. The best thing  to avoid the summer sun is to stay indoors. But then I have to run errands, shuttle my kid to n fro from one class to another. So how can I give a sun hat a miss ? If you are a Delhi girl, you would understand how people can give you sudden anxiety if you dare to wear a big hat out on the roads. But then who cares? 
 I would rather look eccentric than get a patchwork quilt type  face tan. I own a few hats which I bought as experiments , some from art fairs too. Until last year I couldn't bring myself to wear one ,or would wear them for few minutes, feel silly and take them off ! But things changed, and I started blogging fashion so it was essential that I should eventually  crawl out of that slump and get a slight grasp on the fashion world too, hence, the hat trend couldn't be missed and I had a thought creep , Let's do an outfit post , keeping in mind the quintessential summer basics- A sundress and a Sun hat !! Have a look  !!

Last time I played around a bit with my hat on the beach on my trip to Goa ! Plus My sartorially-intelligent husband thinks it looks good on me and it goes with all of my casual summer outfits, hence all the inhibitions of wearing one goes to the bin .And Yes ! Next time you spot a girl in Delhi hiding her face under a big hat, u'll know whom to give a shout at ?

GO GOA GONE AND AN OOTD

Twitter knows it how badly I tuned my followers, by sending tweets that I  desperately wanted to watch the movie Go Goa Gone and was anxiously waiting for its release And The reasons were varied .. Firstly I was looking forward to the zom-com effect as something like this hasn't been attempted on the Hindi screen earlier, although I have witnessed zombies in Hollywood films. secondly the catchy tunes and different lyrics had put this movie in a league of its own for me(to an extent that I have been literally humming the tunes daily)
Personally,I have never ever watched a horror flick alone, as I always end up in a state where I am hyper, and sleep with the lights on for the rest of the week, or at least till as long as I remembered the movie in bits  !
But it was not like this with GGG ! The humor is smart,with generous dollops of bloody-gory-hungry zombies,but the best performance came from Kunal Khemu, who was the one who has the best one liners, the wackiest character, and the man is incredibly gifted with comic timing.  The dialogues are witty and are mostly responsible for invoking a laugh riot ! Saif totally won me with his wonky accent,and the way he  hurled the choicest Lajpat Nagar expletives when provoked,literally made me jump off the chair once..
In the end, Its a must watch !! coz It gives you what you least expect and in ways that you least anticipate,with an obvious underlying "say no to drugs" message.
Now let's move to today's outfit... I wore this for the Elle event which I attended a few weeks back but didn't have time to post it on the blog.."It is better to do well late than it is good to do well never."

Love Jumpsuit

When it comes to fashion, we all love a good trend. It's nice to have something fresh and exciting to spice up the wardrobe, Isn't it ? I was introduced to Jumpsuits Romper's to be specific when I went shopping for my baby's clothes, and  have been in love with them since.Later that year scored some cool ones for my ownself from Bangkok and loved them even more ! Somehow, I really can't see why there is a "Blanket Ban" on them? They're just clothes,like a pant and a shirt and can be quite staid , Yes really !! For me its a trend which has a Never-ending shelf life .
 The best part of a jumpsuit is that it is an entire outfit, so just throw it on and you're instantly trendy and fashionable without a Hitch ! We all have definitely heard about a complete meal, or a complete nutrition phrase, so I call a Jumpsuit a Complete Outfit, lol..,coz they are everything fashion should be !
Switch them from  a casual outing for a Day  to Night by accessorizing with a fun Diva gold belt, dangly earrings,some more sparkle here and there and get ready to groove !
Do you Happen to Love them too ? How many of them do you own ?

Summer trends -Tailored Shorts

Its that time of the year again, yes, the blazing summers ,and the shorts wearing season has started on for me ,and I go by my thumb rule , shorter the better ! Skorts or shorts are two things I don't skip in summers especially when I am  running errands ! Basically they are very practical for active women like me !!
I think a lot of Indian women too, are accepting them as outerwear,since they are effortless to style, be it for a day or night . Pair them with long tops ,and for  those of you who have got reallyyy, long legs,  pull them with high cropped tops  !
Wore this Tailored shorts, for Pearl workshop I mentioned in my previous post . This top seemed to be doing all the work for me, it has a beautiful back cut-out, its got lace, sheer, Neon and is totally  feminine ,couldn't think of a better way to incorporate all the latest trends in one post or one single outfit. 
Strange so, I have never endorsed so many sartorial absolutes in any of my previous posts(and I am feeling good about breaking the rule for good) .
However the smart,button down and heels enhanced my tailored shorts appearance by lending a strong feminine- menswear-inspired vibe to the whole look !
Pick this style if you’re looking at altering your fashion stance at work or for a hot summer date – a bit of leg show never hurt anybody. 
How do you wear your shorts?? I want to know it all from you now !

Polkas , Studs- And Vedette Shapewear Giveaway-closed

As you know from my previous post,that I was sent  to review two shapewears  by Vedette and  Seriously each piece helped me in enhancing my Silhouette better, and I felt great wearing them both  . I am not that recent into shapewears, and have worn them a couple of times before too(my post baby wobble ) !! Gone are the days when shapewears were recommended for big sizes, Big or small or if  you don't have a problem area ,a right shapewear could really help in settling a body hugging dress smoothly  and can achieve a slimming effect up to two sizes small !! 
 As For me it was never about slimming, it was always about streamlining my shape and to always look proportionate,and ever since I discovered Vedette, I have been acting a little obsessed wearing them whenever I am out  !!
The second shape wear I picked was Rosina  from their Sensual range, and I added a little twist by marrying comfort with style and By wearing it as an outerwear ! The color, the lace trim, and the fit was more than perfect for me !! This range is beautiful and feminine can make up for a nice piece of lingerie too !! Believe you me, I had a tough time in picking out one, as I had fallen for each n every piece from their collection !!  And if you are a newly wed and about to get married soon, then Sensuale can be right up your alley too !!
Wanna experience these beautiful Shapewears ?? Then all you need to do is enter this giveaway,where Vedette is going to sponsor a shapewear each for not one but three of my readers !!

Get The Look- Bohemian Fashion

If I had to describe my style in one word it would be BOHEMIAN ! Says "me " about ten years back ! But does style change with time, age, body shape, climate etc? Yes it does, but that doesn't change our mirror image of what we have always been.
I was quite famous in my college days for wearing long skirts with my tees tucked in,glass bangles,long bindis,and no makeup look. Till date I love unusual pairings, and Revolutionary style attracts me a lot .It doesn't hurt to be a Che Guevara. of the fashion world , So this time around I decided to bring out my dormant bohemian avatar while showing a bit of skin....And if  you might  be interested to try something like this,minus the show off part, then  better check THIS post out  too !

Your Guide to Wearing Stripes for Summer-2013

How to wear stripes - Different Stripes for different body types. yes that's where we are heading here..

Needless to explain, that stripes are a biggg trend, and they are gleaming everywhere . So when One of my blog readers was a bit Flummoxed by the fact that she looks overweight and Unflattering in them, I decided to address a post, specifically for all of us who might feel the same,and what better way than to do a OOTD keeping the trend in mind.

No its not Oxymoron,You can really rock the stripes for the Summer of 2013 if we just understand a few things. 

1. First things first, there are a very few of us who are blessed with a perfect body out there(some things are not in our hands,so as of now we can blame our genes for that). But what is not  impossible is that we can create an illusion of a perfect body ! Yes and Wearing stripes makes it relatively easier to achieve !!
2. Vertical Stripes- For those who are heavier on the sides:-They draw the eyes up and down,rather than a side scan. Result-Look Lean and Long !!  Go ahead and pair them with a solid color .
3. Horizontal Stripes- Accentuate the petite part of your body with Horizontal Stripes.U guessed it right ! They can be Widening ! Wider the Horizon, more focused would be the Eyes ,and make a seemingly narrow part of our body ,broader !!
4. Chevron Stripes: Someone did a fun twist on the basic stripes,and made them Zig-Zag,and Boom-We learnt a new term, CHEVRON -Ideal for fuller figure women,as they call attention to the center line of your body.
5. You can even mix stripes choosing a vertical stripe on the half you want to downplay and a horizontal stripe on the half of your body you want to draw more attention to ! It really depends on what you have in your closet.

Phew ! One long post !! Now What ? Go and start digging your closets and discover some Stripes ,but before you do that have a look at How I wore Chevron Stripes !
