From The thrift Kitty

Hello my rasberry marmalades!

Quite a while since we did our last OutFit Post and here one's staright fresh from the thrift shops!Also the first time I debut my ombre curls on blog  *Grime happy face*

I would love to etch my hedonic perspective and the endless happy unicorns dancing around me with the utilitrian concept of thrift shopping but alas that would be an endless rant.So today's Outfit of the Day features our selfless love for thrift.Yes ladies an absolute budget post alert here .

I wore this to brunch and keeping up with the heat this seem to be right burst of colours to us.Go ahead judge your self!

Dress,Pumps,Belt and Hairband all picked up from thrift shop at Hill road.

Talk about eyeing the perfect match.A quick tip for you munchkins , we found that the biggest mistake a thrift-shopper can make is going with high expectations and a focused idea of what they want. Thrift stores are an eclectic collection of pieces from ‘yesterday’ and ‘yesteryear(s)’. If you have something specific in mind, you will likely be disappointed. To avoid frustration, go to a thrift-shop with an open mind and no expectations. It’s also very helpful to avoid second-hand shopping when you have deadlines and time restrictions. Leave your schedule open for the thrift-shop treasure hunt!

See you seen in our next post,till the Stay Chic

The Phulkari !

Hello my Paprika sausages!

This perhaps after a long time I'm doing an #OOTD!

Nothing feels better than being home. All these quick trips include one thing in common - a lot of nostalgia running through me over and again.

So another usual shopper's day and hoards of meeting to attend I wanted to keep my outfit simple and really comfortable for a change. Pairing a simple kurta round neck kurta from Cotton Cottage,leggings from Westside and I made the quirky phulkari jacket paired with my Tresmode bow ballets.

I hope you enjoyed the post.You shall hear from me soon !Stay Chic.

Spotlight of the Week- Manya Sharma

Good evening my peach schnapps. I know it has become a routine me apologising and getting back to square. It’s been an extremely busy start to the year and I 'm barely managing to keep the ends from snapping. You've all been such amazing dolls It really just wants me to make up to guys more. Thank you once again! Let me rant no more and finally talk about whose on spotlight this week.

“Manya Sharma”

Manya is our geek chic fashionista all of 20 aspiring to make it big in textiles. Our rocker chic instinct mixed inebriety with the nerd sportswear made me want to feature her on the blog.

Instead of pairing a traditional crop top she decided to don blazer sans the top over the leather mini overalls.

Completed the look with high top sneakers quilted wedgies, faux leather sling and nerd glasses.

Wardrobe and Wedgies FOREVER 21,Sling Bag from Van Huesen Blazer

(a great find from Sarojini Nagar) and thrifted glasses.

What we like about the look?

 We love the idea how she is keeping it breezy wearing this form fitted blazer to add shape to the entire siloutte. Her.Her tattoos get her extra brownie points.

Spotlight of The Week - Umair

Good morning my Red Velvet Cupcakes!

God just the thought of this red velvet cupcakes brings up the fresh memories of the past year. Thank you from our entire team for being such an amazing readers , All your comments ,in person conversations and your honest views keep us on our toes.We strive to work harder for you (Okay! That went a l'il overboard but our heartfelt thanks to all our readers ).

Our first post of the year is specially dedicated to our Alpha-males.

Today we feature Umair , a second year design student who likes to keep his personal style a tad bit dressier in casual everyday-wear.

He paired a casual black crew neck tee(thrifted from Delhi) with olive-tan chinos from (Wills Lifestyle).The denim shirt over the tee and the tiger tooth neck piece(thrifted from Brigade road,Bangalore) finishing it up with brown NIKE leather shoes.He accesorised the look with a spacious bag and a watch(Sonata).

What we like about the look?

We Like how he has layered the shirt over as it gives a very clean look to the rather boring    t-shirt-chino pairing. The neck-piece binds in an edge and adds to the over all look without going overboard.

Animal Instincts

Good morning my cinnamon buns! The day 4 outfit is here. I haven’t had enough of the winter clothing ever  since I witnessed snow in Kashmir! Cutting back to Mumbai I hardly get to wear jumper, but its that time again the morning and evening can get really chilly. So yes a leather coat over the shoulder might just survive!

Maxi dresses are the most comfortable dresses one can wear throughout holiday season, I mean c'mon who doesn't need to hide that little tummy after good butter chicken: P
I toughened up this laidback Maxi with embellishments on the bust area with brown Moto leather jacket and black boots. Yes I firmly break fashion rules ,so here we've mixed Brown+Black +Animal prints. Animal Prints can get a bit overwhelming so be careful while choosing your prints depending on  your body type, like a red lipstick there's an animal print for everyone. I really liked this dress because the maxi is in a very muted greyhound hue with a medium sized prints.
The plunging neckline offers you to go crazy with layered pieces for your neck or you could wear statement earring like I chose to with collars popped inwards and a long layered army inspired-chain to bring attention to detail. You can  take this look from Day to Night and replace the boots with sky high stilettos.
As for the makeup the eyes I sported a pretty subdues look with grey and brown and wine lipstick JHave you noticed any change? What do you think guys?

Maxi Dress: FOREVER NEW Leather Jacket & Boots: Dad got it from Amsterdam (it's called Mademoiselle) ,Army inspired chain:Thrifted, Earrings: YOSHINE,Sunglasses & ring: BLUR and On my  nails :Maybelline's Colorshow in Black current.
Are you eared up for the upcoming giveaway?

Stay Chic!
