Desi Decadence


This is more of an update post of my absolute M.I.A., I’ve currently moved to Hyderabad , and travelling a lot around the country. It is my personal apology as I've tons of idea, Outfit deets that I wan to share with my curvy ladies.

Coming to the post , a lot of women have asked me when do you ever wear Indian clothes, or often question my sanity on why I need to wear dresses all the time. Here’s my answer to that, it is almost rare that one would find me in Indian attire , as much as I love Indian Hand looms personally I’m still figuring it out how to wear them. There are many traditional outfits that can be worn down with ease and comfort. Traditional Indian wear basically comprises of saree, lehenga, salwar and kurtis. Here’s my first take on a casual rendezvous over coffee OOTD, It is more of a fusion than a true blue desi belle look.

I paired my Linen Nehru collar Kurti(honestly my mum’s) from Westside with these wide legged pants from Amydus and added mojris.

The thing about wearing linen made me realize nobody really cares about the wrinkles on your body the rich texture shows off for itself and makes one look very put together. Secondly they were insanely comfortable during the entire day that I wore them , so my easy- breezy outfit is sorted !
I want to keep experimenting with the look that I can transform this plain  kurti for several occasions. 









Let me know what are your thoughts? Really would want to hear your feedback
Much Love babies

Plaid Perfect


So Ladies this is going to be a QUICKIE. I would also take this opportunity announce That I’m doing a little edition of Sale for these pieces that I’m currently making ,priced under 3k. Many a times have I come across women loving the stuff I make but back down due to the price.I just wanted to establish here,That I try and make only 10 % of profit over the making-I print my own designs and not source,I get them stitched  piece by piece hence they take a little more time but each garment would be to your specification.I can customise all the garments for you from the sleeves,the neckline the hemline and do forth.
This collection would be available by 22nd August and I make sizes XL and above.
Coming back to our post ,
For many people tartan brings to mind ancient Scottish clans, for whom particular colors and the widths of the horizontal and vertical stripes signified which clan the wearer belonged to. Others might think of the Kenyan Maasai tribe’s bright red tartan clothing, or recall wearing a tartan school uniform. Tartan also has associations with the ceremonial dress of the British royals – but the fabric also bears subversive undertones. The anarchic youth of the 70s gave tartan a punk twist, and in the 90s the grunge era appropriated tartan shirts for themselves.
It's the classic print hailing from the Highlands with which fashion has an enduring love affair - and this season Tartan is very much back on the style agenda. So, if you're struggling to style out the trend, Embrace one of the most popularly tipped patterns for fall and be inspired by some tartan street style looks. Tartan is going to be a popular trend for fall, so make sure you add this classic pattern to your wardrobe. The key to wearing the tartan trend this season is to give the heritage pattern a more contemporary spin. 
Tartan street style looks might have a bit of a school girl vibe about them, but there are ways to make them much more grown up.
I made this tartan bodice with a hi-low hem skater dress that accentuates the curves and is perfect for our body types alike.





Paring it with my suede pumps from Tresmode and a polka –dotted headband ,my hair was styled by Sanky in the amazing front pouf and really a faux longer and sleeker bob.I would like to thank Copa Cafe for having me and my mates over!

Bomber Jacket - Two ways to Wear 'Em ft.LastInch


Hello Gorgeous,
The  weather in New Bombay can be a tease. One day it’s 70 degrees and balmy, the next it’s drizzling and chilly. To get through the erratic weather in style, we’re reaching coverups and my latest one being this fabulous  blue floral bomber by LAST Inch. They made their debut at the turn of the century and quickly became synonymous with the glamour and adventure of flying. Lightweight, and effortlessly cool, they look right with slouchy jeans and girly dresses alike.  See my two favorite ways to wear them , I'm doing another post with more ways.




The low-key style separate, which was an eighties staple, is enjoying something of a resurgence thanks to the variety of shapes, textures and colourways that the bomber, circa 2015, has to offer.
They’re perfect for pulling off the off-duty, sportswear inspired trends that are dominating the catwalks, shop fronts, and streets right now.They’re the perfect combination of slouch and sophistication. They’re also lightweight enough to be worn in the warmer months, making them perfect for transitional dressing. When thinking about how to wear bomber jacket styles like this, team a lightweight bomber with heavier, stiffer fabrics (like denim) for some balance. Bomber jackets are so great because they give off a relaxed, ‘I didn’t even have to try’ kind of vibe. Perfect for working the sports luxe trend!  
So in my first look I did a complete no-brainer with  my duo-rexin pants in Black  by ROADSTER and Number tee picked up from SPLASH's Men's Section.
I really wanted them to be comfortable hence my footwear are these Muted Matte Gold- Mesh Detailed loafers, they come with a 2-inch platform that effortlessly adds  to 5 Feet 5 Inch frame.





As for the second look I'm wearing a translucent  film top with Old Navy Shorts and the same comfy Loafers.
Tell me how would  you style your bomber Jacket? My fabulous jacket was sent by Last Inch.

A riot of colours

Take a minute and imagine the world around you without colors, how boring and unexciting life would be. The sense of color is as extended as the sense of LIFE.
Every color has a unique effect on individuals and stimulates various responses e.g. the fast food companies use red, yellow and orange colors in their restaurants and product packaging as these colors are found to be helpful in increasing appetite. A research by the University of British Columbia has proven that blue color enhances creativity whereas; the color red helps to be focused and has a positive effect on memory.
The Blackfriars Bridge made of black iron when painted green, showed a decline in suicide rate up to 30%. Studies show that pink color is beneficial for stimulating responses from females whereas dark green color has a motivational effect on males.
Moving beyond the gyaan I incorporate two trends in my wardrobe religiously and pretty much unknowingly , the first one being monochrome and the second one backfiring with colours,no really! This dress has got to my favourite in terms of comfort, that I don’t need to wear anything to layer over or under, which is a bliss for me!

After the making some major headlines, parrot lady finally returns home and I take no chances on getting inspired. I have previously donned tonnes of graphic, this one is has an Indian ladies across the state in their ethnic dresses. Zoom in to figure out which states are featured.
For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, here’s your dose of current affairs  : http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/modi-parrot-lady-canada-stephen-harper-sculpture/1/430382.html

I made this Maxi shirt dress to wear from day meetings when I want to be oozing a lot of flamboyance. I paired it up with my salmon suede heels and these spike earrings from the_bling_store. She retails on Instagram and has some amazing  collection, the best part they come at a very reasonable price.

Style your way to Paris-team Mumbai

Like any other blogger that you’ve anticipated it was the first time ever my peers came forward and actually forced me to participate. I had long dropped the Idea but as I was writing an ode to my grandmother in my previous blogpost it struck to me I owe on to my grandad. What makes it even more special is the precious Swarovski I keep worth I was gifted by my grandfather on my 15th birthday, also the year he passed away. No I'm not banking on your sympathies but sharing a real piece of pie of my fabulous mango summers. Being the eldest grandchild , all my holidays were spent in Delhi and Agra with my grandparents.
I dedicate this to you Dadu and I know that you watch me over .
Some people find their personal style in a uniform-type look — a definable aesthetic. For me, it’s the unexpected crazy shoe, piece of jewelry, or item of clothing that makes an outfit of mine feel slightly off. It’s fun to wear and it’s fun to look at, and I think fashion should be fun. It doesn’t mean you give up looking chic or elegant if you don’t want to, but it’s all in the degree you want to take it to. One thing to remember is to build some basic foundation pieces into your wardrobe so you have clothes to work with. I look through my closet at times and find that I get overrun with the weird stuff, and need to maintain some level of normalcy to build a look. At this point in my evolution, even the most amazing banana platforms require some level of balance. I paired  my organza tulle jacket with an white mermaid fit slip inside. The outfit has been designed by me and the peeptoes are from tresmode.
I associate with white in a lot of ways ,to this post.
Let me know what do you think of the post and my entry to Style your way to paris contest by POPxo Daily. Take some time out and like my entry on Instagram.

I will be back very soon with another post, till then

Stay Chic

Borrowed












 
Another day tending my boredom,I started to scrounge around the house. We tend to forget just how much junk we’ve stashed away in closets and drawers until we start digging into our nearly forgotten summer clothing. Old cell phones gathering dust, an unused hand-me-down crockpot, and dresses that haven’t seen the light of day in years, all just wasting space. It’s time to get rid of that clutter .So I found this amazing bedsheet-a complete collection of covers, duffets and pillow cases. 
This was a set passed by my grandmother to my mother and had sadly been the only hand –me –downs she owned from her mother, apart from the jewellery she refuses to show me until I get ready to get married.

I instantly fell in love with the fabric, the cloth ,the memories. Seems almost surreal, being I’ve never really had the chance to meet my maternal grandmother. I twitched ,hesitated but I asked my mother for the set and she very surprisingly obliged. And that’s the story of my dress translating from sheets to this dresses. Infact it is my mother who stitched it for me and I proudly adorn it as one of my priciest collection.





THE OOTD is just a reminder of my mother and grandmother ,hence I haven’t accessorized at all. The smokey eye and red lip subsides by the vintage feel of this maxi.
Do you have any fond memory of a dress, please do Share yours. Enjoy the post,until next time.

Stay CHIC

Xoxo.

Sometimes love is not enough, and then you find that Maxi


I've never really been afraid of trying out new styles and showing more than a little skin required but to justify I've my own fears too. Like a jumpsuit I've never found this piece of clothing particularly pleasing , with my biggest obsession about how/ why do I need to remove everything to pee. And I belong to the sect that says yes fashion is taking the pain with joy. Enough with the rants and being told how I'm supposed to cover up when wearing a bandeau/strapless dress. Well everybody can go to hell 'cos I'm really going to wear it everywhere now!
So here my very graphic purchase from SPLASH that I absolutely adore .I've been wearing the dress all the time with jackets, shrugs shirt, over a skirt yup!
So it was time that the maxi basked in it's own glory. Now the bandeau dress does nothing really great for arms but I 'm oozin with a certain confidence and I 'm really liking it .I paired this dress with gorgeous earring from BLUR Accessories and a ring from Colaba. I really prefer wearing gladiators but this TRESMODE heels do the justice too.
Sanky braided my hair to one side in a thick conrow after crimping my hair so all that volume isn’t backcombing but crimping that gives the hair air and texture to work with.



What your current favourite outift?I will see you next time!
XOXO
