The Southern Escapade

Hello My blooming marigolds,
Today I write to you from the southern part of India, well to be fair I have been in Hyderabad for quite a while now but this is Kanyakumari I'm talking about.
So I have been backpacking across South India and completing missing out on blogging. But you must catch all my escapades on Snapchat(id:Goli Darzi).

I haven't really had the chance to dress up on this trip of ours but I did pack for some pretty dresses for Dinner and Brunch's

One such being the lovely custom made dress for me by LURAP. The collab has been on cards for a while now and I just wanted to take  you on this journey of mine. The dress is
Today I'm writing one of the first ways I styled it and consequently show you other ways you could style the same little black artsy dress! It's rare we find something our size and when we do ,I make sure I maximise the utility by wearing it in as many as possible ways I can. I will try and post two more styling options for you to choose from.

Lurap has had a pretty good brand value when it comes to USA and now when venturing into India I think they are doing a tremendous job. It is on the pricier end but I don't really mind paying for the kind of value I g et for the product.

The Website Experience:

surfing over to the site I found the website easy not only to navigate but a hassle free checkout. Now with over 1000 of choices just for plus size dresses ,this was certainly the first time I felt spoilt for choices. We can choose from a standard sizing set or go with custom fitting. However, when one goes above a size of XL or for custom fits extra charges may apply. And I understand this may pinch your pocket a bit but I can absolutely vouch for the fit, it is to the T. So whether you are a size 2 or 20 ,you know where you can choose from.
They also have an Indian Ethnic section which I'm yet to try out but can't wait to review it fory ou guys! Can you imagine all these options for us curvy girls in India?

I chose the dress and ordered for a custom fit. It took them 15 days to deliver but well it worth every day of the wait! This is not a paid collaboration ,I bought my own dress and decided to blog about it! So you my ladies can be rest assured of my true opinion of the website and the product. They had a special discount of 2100 running which was a total winner for me!

About the Dress

In most cases, a curvy gal is looking to wear a dress that makes her look her best whether that be by embracing her curves, hiding what needs to be hidden or simply making her look a few pounds slimmer.

The problems with curvy gals is that a traditional shift dress is a short dress that lacks shaping. The dress goes up and down without any definition given to the waist. What is worse for us is that these dresses have short or no sleeves. But in case of this LURAP dress, it not only cinches at the waist but the outer layer actually cover the elastic not giving an awkward appearance!

What I conferred from Lurap is that they don’t believe that chic stops at size 12 and are committed to creating stylish options to women of all sizes, race. Here's the link of the dress I selected, do note additional charges ply for customization.

How I styled the Dress- Part Un

Since I had bare minimals Id id toss my bed head around and defined by curling tongs of 1.5inches to  give them a definition. Well I'm miserable at hair without you Sanky,you were duly missed!

I planned the look for a brunch we were headed to so wore NEWLOOK block heels along with silver thrifted earrings ! Well that was all I did for the look .The sleeves did all the justice of covering my buffy arms and hence I didn't feel the need to wear any armcandy or even my watch for that matter.

However you have to watch this space out next so you can follow how I style the same dress in other styles.

Let me know how did you like this look and would you like to experience LURAP with me, have you shopped from LURAP before? I had love to hear all about it!
Here's a closeup of my hair and makeup! Would love to hear your feedback.
See you soon in my next post!
xoxo
