Military Jacket | Faux Fur And Combat Boots

There is something about wide buttoned military jackets that gets me excited. I had one when I was 9 and my friends used to envy. They said it was too decorative ... haha... The minute I saw this March jacket on Stalk Buy Love, my grown up self  remembered how  my mom carefully piled away my cashmere sweaters and winter expenses into a big suitcase with lots of mothballs. For my favourite jacket, she always said, this is mothball proof, go hang it back in isolation. Even she knew back then that this kind of an all season urban uniform is trend driven, and I should probably flaunt it all year round.

I could say the same for this Jacket too. The sharp fierce colour is not only attractive, but a total impressionistic .

I have a very strong feeling that this could pass and make for a perfectly cool formal outerwear, if you have a funked up working environment, and you want to show that having diversity with your wardrobe is equally important. Its about time we show em folks, that a military jacket is a staple among the civilians too.

We shot this look in Jan last week.  It was a cold and gloomy day. As we proceed towards spring , I cannot think of wearing the fur collar right now . Its about time that I stuff half off my season's worth of clothes back into the blow tights into the attic . Time to rake away dead leaves and look for sprouted flowers. But this jacket is an year rounder. You are going to see me dragging this statement jacket and  change profile pictures after profile pictures,maybe hanging it like a prop from my arm in a few month's time from now.

Sporty Chic Mania

Deep down the nostalgic path, let me just Time travel you all to my  post where I told you how I am loving this sporty chic trend.Sneakers with my outfits just let me play with the edge and the iridescent colours remind me of moments of summers with a crisper feeling.Even the french women are running around in their sheaths with sneakers haha..

The headband has made the comeback. The style is more or less the same, and mixing elegant with athletic pieces has a spirit of its own. I love to wake the unexpected most of times(usually). Looking for edgy things to add drama and then setting my sight to pieces geared to bringing the fun, without being sloppy cannot be a child's play. 

For this look, I planned on having a silly dress up day. No reasons whatsoever. The mood was good, humidity was less, and the hair on my legs were recently plucked  (read  shaved). The high waist shorts, literally rides up into my Hoo-haa and has a mind of its own, which I think from next I am strictly using them for athleisure kind of appearance only.

The Crop from  Stalk Buy Love  in this summery refined  powder blue lets me exercise my quirk elements. With Autumn just around the corner, this is is one helluva take away trend that satiates all my fetish wear demands.Of Course the headband stays . Haven't figured much ways to spearhead this quirky accessory with other looks, but with fashion week round the corner, you are gonna see me styling this head-turner more often I guess.

Some Slit Power With MissaMore.Com

Women come with a default plug in. Plug ins-  where we become easily obsessed with  things we love to do, and cannot stop thinking about.For eg. I can recall the precise moment when I realized that fashion is my drug. I cannot say for sure, if I am gonna be pulling the plug anytime sooner,but spending much time planning a perfect wardrobe is like a sojourn, always cognizant of the fact, that I have to express myself to you full throttle. And in the quest to do the same,I love associating myself with new brands, their usps, and the new swings in fashion they have to offer.

Today I am wearing this long slit top from MissaMore. Not my first time on this style boat, but yeah kind off dabbling in feminine and moving on to the next big thing or as we always call it - A trend.

I don't remember if I have ever worn a bright multi-hued floral number,which is a great standout .

And for this sole reason, the bottoms were picked wisely, to put together a look starting to further the embodying of smartly tailored and conceptual fashion from head to toe and as a way to be completely elegant  and primally pleasurable allowing me to channel, demure but with enhanced spiritedness.

After all, our dressing up(in good clothes) just ratifies the personality, and the confidence we never know exists. Wanna know a secret ?

 ...............................I am always wearing my invisible crown.

Inspired By Fashion Week

Today's outfit is a Re-Run of a sneak peek u all would have seen,during Fashion week days. Its finally making it to the blog , yes thank god .

For most of us who make it to the lavishness of the fashion week with its own dress codes and haunts, its a fantasy on the runway,while the others gaped their phones and their favourite fashion people live streamed pictures on Instagram. Fashion show days have a different kind of vibe. 

Taking the leverage of these events, we common mortals(btw you can easily identify these people at fashion week) fingers tapping on phone, slowly strolling the venue, eye contact minimal, sipping tea and in between pointing phones at a mirror for pictures to cover on the blog.Basically Low profile that is. 

While there are those flaunting their guccis in the face, air-kissing with designers , talking as loud as they could with a verbal fashion diarrhea and  some slangs which I don't understand, a walk which would put a shame to any online couture queen, papped by new interns(you would find them  on second row and how ?) who specifically stalked these self -acclaimed diva(s) on Instagram only to the day where they could bolster their online validation and rub a few goody bags in the face of their deprived friends boasting about their fashion connections. 

I know for a fact that fashion has a hierarchy. The influencers like editorials wears anything which speak more directional pieces, buyers -more of commercial dressing , while its the bloggers who care about creative  and original design  and  good craftsmanship. 

They explore,  translate runway fashion to convertible fashion(budget it too , if need be) for a thousands of those who doesn't know how it's done. To me, they are the actual influencers who pay attention to designers collection and then closely create items heavily influenced by or have similar elements and manage to stay on "Point " And its when they actually irrigate the garden of Self-Made. 

So all my lovely bloggers out there- Just  believe in your HYPE, keep doing the awesome work you do coz  REAL-ITY is made up of being  Real, and you all are the only ones having that.

P.S- This is just a rant, an observation, and doesn't mean to hurt anyone's emotional balance. Take it in good humour .

Plaid for Winters | Pench Travel Diaries

Though right now, its a struggle to show off these bare legs in Delhi, thinking of the chilly season hovering ahead, its simply not possible. But you would laugh if I tell you that I was freezing my ass off last month exactly for this outfit shoot. These pics are from Pench National Park,(in case u are on insta u would know I was there ) 
It was raining when we landed, and the weather took a steep turn into being very very cold. I was only thinking of all those shorts which I had packed, coz that part of India is never that cold. To add to my woes, hubs disclosed that our safaris were booked for  5 A.M for 3 consecutive days, and suddenly shopping became the most prime agenda.
We loved our hotel- Village machaan Resort, which apparently had the best rooms (all glass) and a private Machaan(vantage Point/ Watch tower ) - offering a great view.
The roads leading to the jungle are actually not that great, and can give you a really spooky experience, but the safaris were well worth the risks. We spotted the tiger on our very first safari , and the other two days we almost followed the  leopard  paws, but missed the beast. The drivers and the guides inside the park are very well trained , and they make sure that we all have a great experience. The last day , I finally had a chance to take these shorts out and pose in from my room (if u can see in  between blur and portions). This also happened be  the only day I smothered on some lipstick like a jerk, coz my lips were too busy either complaining of the cold or involved in  tittering every second. 
Except the bag, shoes and shirt, I have shopped everything from the men section here. Its not unusual that you see me mixing prints these  days- Been there and done that , but it was some kind of different thrill to mix n match stuff from the HE- Man ? Like it ??
