Last Friday marked an exciting and inspiring luncheon as the legendary Yuvraj Singh launched his sports lifestyle brand - You We Can - on India's leading fashion e-tailer Jabong. Inspired by his own life and his many victories - both professional and personal - You We Can (YWC) is Yuvraj Singh's own label and is an offset of his foundation named 'You We Can' - an NGO dedicated towards working for cancer causes, funding education for cancer survivors and many more noble activities. Which is why, a certain percentage of all YWC sales are contributed towards the You We Can foundation, facilitating and enabling the good work to be carried on. YWC, available at Jabong, is an active wear line consisting of a variety of products for men and women like T-shirts, ,joggers, track pants, jackets, hoodies and much more. And guess what, these pieces won't burn a hole in the pocket as prices range from Rs. 600 to Rs. 1500. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking at the event, Yuvraj Singh, said,<i>"YWC is built around the ethos - Live, Dare and Inspire - and aims to motivate individuals to fight against insurmountable odds, have courage and make fighters out of all of us. Jabong has a dedicated base of sports-loving and fashion-forward shoppers and will be an excellent platform for YWC to connect with more individuals and inspire them to have the grit and determination to overcome unassailable difficulties. I am sure YWC will continue to reach a wider sect through its association with Jabong." </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Make sure you check out the You We Can collection available at Jabong. </div>

Love it or hate it, but you cannot escape it - All pretty things do come in pink and all the Valentine hum drum involves pink, and a lot of it. But beyond the pretty and the mushy, for me pink affiliates with strength and empowerment as well (and <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/11/i-believe-in-pink.html">much more</a>).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With February unremarkably being the month of love (and all the branding that has gone into making it one), I felt it right to share with you my all time favourite pinks. I wouldn't label all of them as classics, however, being personal favourites I'll certainly recommend splurging on them. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's my list - </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Chance by Chanel </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Miss Dior by Christian Dior</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Dream of Pink by Lacoste - Sadly discontinued. Hence, I savour every drop of mine! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Chatterbox by M.A.C - Works better as a blush. Trust me! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Breathing Fire by M.A.C</div>
<br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px;">You are late to the party if I have to tell you that pleats were The trend last spring/summer and the fashion circuit is going puppy eyed for them this season as well. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px;">Knife, accordion or superfine crystal pleats, this precise, fabric creasing technique takes on a sophistication that goes beyond that of plaid, school uniforms. Besides the drama when in motion and with the right hints of metallic and shine, pleats create a perfect balance of sexiness and reserve. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px;">With Issey Miyake capturing imaginations with this revolutionary label Pleats Please and bringing them back into the spotlight, this technique has progressed from the boutique curated gowns and dresses to the more wearable, accessible and affordable wardrobe staples. Pleats are a great way of fashionably hiding yourself (imagine a wide, legged palazzo pant) or being your boldest, avant-garde self (imagine an architecturally structured top). Not to mention, their ability to elevate even the blah of outfits. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px;">Hence, the outfit. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: georgia, times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: georgia, times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Metallic skirts have made quite a dent with some of the leading high street fashion houses and hence into the fashion conscious wardrobes. Pair them with a cool, graphic t-shirt or go edgy like me, they work their way to spruce the very basics. And, if pleats aren't your thing (really?) but metallics are, you might want to check out </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plEmzzpi6yQ" style="font-family: georgia, times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">this</a><span style="font-family: georgia, times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;"> for some SOS.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
While working on some personal logistics this Monday morning, I found myself composing the infamous 'About Me' of our lives. My to-do list also included writing a new post for the blog and because of that prior exercise, ideas flowed fast. Being around here for long, you might know me a little or virtually a lot, but perhaps THIS wasn't enough to let you know about US. We may be the #Agamit, but who are we? Well, now you know -</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Starting with the very basic. (In case you are new here) My name's Agam and his name's Amit Rabab Singh.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. We were batch-mates through school, lost touch post that, met again while we were in college, dated for about ten years and have been married for ten months now. Touchwood!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. While you know what I do, Amit too is an entrepreneur and has his own company. He is into skill development for the banking and financial sector.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. We both are Pisces. Our birth dates are a week apart and I'm a week elder to him.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-size-adjust: auto;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://trimmingsandlace.com/how-to-do-gold-smokey-eyes-6-easy-steps/"><span style="color: blue;">How To Do Gold Smokey Eyes - 6 Easy Steps</span></a></div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue; font-size: 12px; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: auto;">
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. We were in a long distance relationship for about three years and after that too we were in different cities. As tough as it might have been, it strengthened our relationship and us like no other.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. I wouldn't call Amit a fashion aficionado. But he undoubtedly has a great sense of style. He strongly believes in investing in statement pieces and his taste in shoes and bags is unmatched.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7. We both have sisters' as siblings. Amit has a younger sister while I have an elder sister.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8. He's a self confessed food and wine connoisseur while my food barometer is quite dismissive and I barely know my Malbee from Merlot.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
9. This might get categorized as being a cliche, but I am the temperamental one between the two of us. He is pretty much always calm and composed and hence always the peacemaker.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10. Being in the profession that I am in and being a 'geographically distant' boyfriend, I sometimes missed having him as the 'photographer boyfriend'. Request you to kindly not judge me quite literally here but get the drill. Now, Amit himself is camera shy but has recently developed a penchant for photography. My Instagram's a proof. And now I can finally say with pride "I love that man behind the camera!"</div>

<br />
Its quite rhetorical when I ask myself or a group of like minded individuals as to whether 'Professionalism' in today's time is a disregarded virtue or simply an illusion. From what I can say for myself, I am a propagator of professionalism. I may have an occasional slip or two, but then my morality takes the better of me and the whole situation and perhaps the lack of "call of action" from my end, makes me feel guilty to the stomach. I do also believe that there are a few gospels that constitute the very fundamentals of professionalism and are independent of the industry you operate in. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The sheer idea of TIME is nothing but a myth and punctuality an unknown virtue. We all have been late to a meeting or an event and have also been on the other side of the table. But why does being late become a characteristic symbolic of your stature and being right-on-time fetches you an "Ohhh! You're here", topped with sufficient quantities of dismay.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another aspect of our everyday functioning, which we all might have resorted to ourselves at some point of time, and have largely become okay with is NON-REVERT. One of the very basics of <strike>virtual</strike> communication is acknowledgement. But since when and why, a simple acknowledgement to an email, a text or a call become a damper to the position you hold or a reflector to how busy you really are. Why are we in a race to supersede the other on grounds as trivial as these. Has talent and hard work indeed lost their value that we cannot bank on them.</div>
<div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We battle it out on the OUTCOMES, results and deliverables. Yet it is easy for people to renege on their commitments and what was apparently agreed upon, easily compromising on the time and efforts put into the initial discussion and decision making. In some cases, your efforts might be deemed as obligatory. While in others, it might seem fair and just to put off a task for reasons more personal than professional, sometimes to an extent where it becomes an arduous exploitation of your professional dependence. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am sure each of us can add in more to this rant, coming from a tank of experiences we gain in and during our professional tenure. Likewise, each of us would have evolved a mechanism that works best for us. However, much like my thoughts on MODESTY, it sometimes saddens me to find myself swimming in a pool as shallow as this. But I'm glad to have my virtues as my lifeboats and retain them with pride. I would love to know your share of professional inexperience(s) and how you dealt with them. In the end, all I say is that - Let's bring the ship home!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://s1371.photobucket.com/user/TrimmingsAndLace/media/Collage%202.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag288/TrimmingsAndLace/Collage%202.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Collage 2.jpg"></a>
<br />
<br />
Tassels and fringes are pretty much regarded as the trend of the 70s, but making a glorious appearance on shoes this Spring/Summer'16 made them absolutely delectable. Laced up to the mid-calf, sitting pretty on ankle straps, platformed, wedged or stilettoed, fringes and tassels add a striking dynamism to the entire look. I've personally loved the infamous <a href="https://www.aquazzura.com/en/boutique-online/woman/view-all/sandals/heels/wild-thing-85-lipstick-suede.html">Aquazzura</a> Wild Thing Sandals and did pick up similar ones from Daisy Street (<a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2016/07/trimmingsandlace-what-i-wore-june-2016.html">here</a>). But if you're wanting to embrace the trend without burning a hole in your pocket and unlike other DIYs existing on the web, don't want to shelve and cut paste your existing pair of sandals, this tutorial might be of help. So, let's get started! </div>
<br />
<u><br /></u>
<u>You'll need:</u><br />
<u><br /></u>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. A classic pair of sandals. Try picking a pair which is simple and minimalistic in virtue. If you have a pair that fastens on the ankles, its a bonus!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Tassels in the colour of your choice. These are easily available at all craft stores.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Suede, faux leather strings. Avoid using ribbons because they tend to slide and don't really hold on the legs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Tape.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. A pair of scissors. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. A straightening iron (optional).</div>
<br />
<u><br /></u>
<u>Steps:</u><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. I started by trimming and refining the ends of the tassels to make them look neater and even.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Next, I used a straightening iron to smoothen any wavy and wiggly threads and strands.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. This step is optional. I secured the loop of the tassels with a tape to make it smaller so that it doesn't move around, once slipped through the suede strings. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Weave the strings through the straps of your sandals. Pretty much like <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/08/do-it-yourself-gladiator-sandals.html">this</a>.</div>

<span style="background: white;">Among the many moments in life, when
adrenaline rush thrives and the monotony of life comprises itself in a time
frame ever so characteristic and dynamic, is the "festive
season". </span>If you've been a regular
reader of my blog (or an occasional one around this time of the year), you
aren't stranger to my indescribable love for the festive season. Maybe it is
because of the faint celebratory sounds that make way through the quietness of the
night or it is the unison with which the roads gets jam packed, sweet shops get
flooded with people or the sight of your city beaming in a sea of lights. Or so
because, I believe that <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/10/when-october-spoke-to-me.html"><b>October

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white;">From much awaited get-togethers with
family to endless conversations till the wee hours of the morning. From card
parties with friends to all those exciting food menus. From the absolutely
necessary shopping trips to planning for all the upcoming shaadis. The festive
season is a bountiful of moments, occasions and celebrations</span><span style="background: white; color: #222222;"> <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2015/11/trimmingsandlace-for-vajor-bringing-it.html"><b>All

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For two years now, I've made it my tradition to share with you all my ideas on festive dressing. Much like our lives, our sartorial choices also pace and evolve. Though, each year I have tried to very practical and realistic when it comes to my choices but this year I am all prepared to go unabashed. This festive year is rather very special (and huge) for me because I get to spend it with my husband, my main man. So this, <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2015/11/trimmingsandlace-for-vajor-once-upon.html"><b>Once Upon A Princess</b></a> is all set to head-out for the hustle, bustle and bang and cherish each moment of this beautiful gift of life in its complete glory.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The summer heat might be bidding us a fast farewell, but it does leave behind bitter sweet traces of tan on the skin which are hard to get rid off. The summers and the holiday season must have been the time when you loved this tan and made up for quite a show off, but come festive season I bet you want to look your radiant and glowing best. Well, we are in luck because Himalaya recently launched their Tan Removal Orange Peel-off Mask, and you'll be over the moon that they did. My earliest memory of a peel-off mask is that of my mother using one regularly, and now if you follow me on Snapchat and Instagram you would know that I am a mask lover myself. Hence, when I was given this opportunity to try out this product while it was in its pre-launch stage, no surprises I couldn't refuse.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Himalaya Tan Removal Orange Peel-off Mask, is an effective blend of natural ingredients like Orange peel and honey, known for their skin lightening and brightening properties. Orange peel, through its peeling action, helps control melanin synthesis aiding in removing tan and lightening the skin tone, while honey helps in soothing, moisturizing and hydrating the skin. The Orange peel extracts also act as a natural cleanser for the skin, help eliminate excess oil and render a more even-tone texture to the skin, Likewise, honey contains superior antibacterial, probiotic and healing properties and is extremely beneficial in nourishing the skin for that healthy, youthful glow. </div>
<br />
<u><b><br /></b></u>
<u><b>HOW TO USE - </b></u><br />
<u><br /></u>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apply the mask on cleansed skin avoiding the skin around your eyes. The mask is similar to a gel in consistency and hence glides smoothly. Allow the mask to dry for 10-15 minutes. Once done, gently peel off the mask from the skin. I do recommend doing a patch test before you apply the mask on your skin, because the mask did break me out where I am most susceptible to acne. Since then, I've avoided using it on that area in particular and am quite happy with the results on the rest of my skin. I do use it twice a week, and can reckon that it fairly does what it claims. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope this was helpful and made you less stressed about looking your best this festive season. Don't forget to let me know! </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">For the longest time ever I have believed and <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2015/03/do-it-yourself-lip-stain.html">accepted</a> on the blog, that my make-up knowledge is a result of tests and trials and much of it had been borrowed. It took me quiet a while to come up with this post and to claim that this piece of writing comes out of experience. My own wedding and my real sister's, probably two optimum occasions for me to "experiment". None the less, being a regular in my make-up bag for over three years now, with an increased rate of application, I can affirm that my views can be borrowed. Without much delay, let us begin!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Disclaimer - I won't be delving into the different skin type details, because these are formulas that work best for my skin. I have a combination skin and I am typically oily around my T-zone. My skin is also very sensitive, is prone to acne and isn't blemish free. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>M.A.C Face and Body (I'm in the shade - N1)</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This product has been my maiden major make-up buy. M.A.C Face and Body has been a timeless, patented classic and a must-have for all prominent make-up artists. It took me about two empty bottles to finally purchase the shade that suits me right. Since the foundation is water based, it is a little runny but is quite hydrating on the skin. It provides a light to medium coverage, which can be built depending upon your preference. As M.A.C claims, it is meant to provide a natural, even and a luminous appearance to your skin and indeed does so. However, since it is a light-weight formula, it does little to conceal any under-eye patches or blemishes, but smoothens the skin to impart a healthy glow. Because of the very same, when I do wear make-up I do not reach out for this product because I do want to conceal my problem areas. Which is why, I largely use it on my legs and arms especially when I am filming videos. What I absolutely love about this product is the fact that it is super long-lasting and doesn't come off on the clothes at all. This is a major sell-out for me, and hence a part of my must-have!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>M.A.C Studio Fix Foundation (I'm in the shade - NC 20)</b></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">If I have to qualify and put something in the "Can't do without" bracket, this product would be it. I absolutely love it. I am very minimal when it comes to make-up, and my everyday work make-up (excluding shoots, events and important meetings) simply involves a swipe of this wonder product. To begin with, M.A.C Studio Fix is an amazing combination of both a foundation as well as a powder. It is highly refined in texture which is why it is almost unnoticeable on the skin, leaving enough room for the skin to breathe. It imparts a velvety feel to the skin, gives a matte finish and is amazingly long-lasting. The foundation can definitely be built up, but if you are someone who prefers a full coverage, I would suggest that you use it on top of your regular liquid foundation. I resort to this step only when I am shooting and it works perfectly for touch-ups as well. If you are a make-up beginner, this product is a must-buy simply because its an all-in-one kinda thing!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>M.A.C Mineralize SkinFinish Natural (I'm in the shade - MEDIUM)</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I picked up this product, before my wedding, while I was on a look-out for a setting powder and boy do I love it or what! M.A.C Mineralize SkinFinish Natural is a range of baked, mineral pressed powders largely meant to be used as a setting agent for your make-up. True to its claims, it works perfectly. More so because, it feels so light, breathable and natural on the skin. This product has been my perfect bet during the rainy, humid weather as it works brilliantly to control oil and saves you from that oily sheen. Basis the same, you do have an option to use it simply over your regular moisturizer, however, the product being sheer in texture it won't impart any coverage of sorts. It shall simply help in making your skin look smooth, semi-matte and dimensional. Its main role is that of a setting powder and it does so wonderfully. So much so, I have to admit that I feel incomplete without it. I use it over my SPF, over all the products mentioned in this post and for any touch-ups during the day. I think I've made my point!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">I could actually find myself gushing at the thought of CHANEL </span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Vitalumi</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #545454;">è</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">re Aqua because it is magical. It is smooth, has an ultra fine texture and sits perfectly on the skin. It lends a very dewy, healthy from within, fresh rosy glow to the skin which for me is the perfect rendition of the French skin. It smells divine and an absolute sell-out for me is that it has an SPF of 15. This ones again a water based formula and requires a good shake before you use it. For me it works best when applied with fingers. Claimed to provide light to medium coverage, for me personally, it works as a full coverage formula concealing blemishes and/or other problem areas. Because of its refined texture, this foundation also is light reflective and hence works perfectly for occasions where you are likely to be photographed. An added bonus in that scenario is that it is extremely long-lasting. However, it does transfer on to clothes which is why setting it with a powder becomes necessary.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">So, if you are following me on Snapchat you'll be familiar with me reviewing products and/or giving a break-down of my make-up looks. I happened to review the Bourjois CC Creme last year, and my first words were that this product is the budget friendly version of CHANEL </span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Vitalumi</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #545454;">è</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">re Aqua. I picked up this product primarily because <a href="http://www.lisaeldridge.com/">Lisa Eldridge</a> had raved so much about it on her channel. Also, because I was on a look-out for a more "everyday" product and keep aside my premium buys for special occasions alone. As the name suggests, this product is a combination of colour correcting pigments and a moisturizing creme. I was in denial of the whole colour correction fad and the whole idea of a green, red or an orange product targeted towards different skin concerns. However, after using this product I can second that it does something to address these concerns. Is that the coloured pigments or the basic formula in itself, but yes it does work. With an SPF of 15, for me this product works as a second layer of hydration and protection on the skin. It provides a light, sheer coverage and adds a healthy glow and luminosity to the skin. For me, its best applied with fingers and with a swish of M.A.C's SkinFinish I'm good to go. If someone was to ask me what is my everyday make-up routine, majorly, it would be these two products used together. If you suffer from acne, the green pigments work perfectly to conceal any redness. I also have a feeling that when I use it on top of any angry pimple, it helps reduce the inflammation as well. Lastly, for its price it definitely is a grab! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Once again, I picked up this product after seeing Lisa Eldridge's videos that seconded the claim that the product has been designed for the more extreme details of today's ultra high definition technology. Since, I had decided to do my own make-up for all minor wedding functions of mine, plus I had a professional need as well, to put it straight I had to buy it. And once again, totally worth the spurge. This foundation is an oil-free, SPF free formula and is nearly invisible to the HD cameras and the naked eye alike. It provides a medium to full range coverage, rendering a very even, smooth and radiant canvas to the skin. However, it sets a little too early on the skin so you need to be quick and work your way around it. Also, it oxidizes after a couple of hours and on me gives a very sun-kissed, tanned kinda look which works brilliantly (If I may say so) in photographs. Because this foundation sets so well, the need of a setting powder is marginally reduced. I do like to brush it over my T-zone though. The product is a little on the costlier side, but a little goes a long way which makes it totally worth the amount spent. So, if you are a bride-to-be or in a profession that requires you to be in front of the camera, Make-Up Forever HD Foundation is an absolute holy grail. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Besides the sempiternal
nine yards, another Indian silhouette with an endless appeal is the
quintessential Kurta. The Kurta or the Kurti as a piece of clothing has constantly
re-invented itself and evolved in order to keep pace with the changing demands
of the fashion forward world. Humble beginnings saw the very basic Kurti being
paired with salwars/churidaars and dupattas. As lifestyles became more demanding,
we proudly relaxed ourselves in the comfort of our jeans/trousers paired with the Kurti,
ditching the dupatta. And now, this piece soars as breezy cotton dresses and
the super women cape alike (and also </span><a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/07/stories-from-that-textbook.html" style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">like</a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">).

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">I was instantly drawn to
the delicate garden print on this Kurta by W (this one’s not from their latest
collection) as it exhibited my never ending love for all things tropical, the idea defined as luscious banana prints and fashion presented amidst
oneiric gardens. Sticking to the theme, I styled the Kurta as a cape making the
whites and greens pop invariably. Likewise, while shooting our efforts were
towards staying true to the whole concept of minimal tropic. Although this look
would sit perfectly for a day at the beach, to put it humbly, this was the best
we managed at Chandigarh. Thank God for no-beach hair though!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Having rested in the drafts for close to six months, call it instinct or procrastination, I never felt it was the right time to publish this post. This video was shot within the pages of a test-run, the concept I wanted to structure it around came in much later. But somehow it couldn’t see the light of the day. Until, having lived that concept now, the eve of my anniversary (six months) seemed just the right moment to share this. This video and the following words are my attempt at sharing the structural and platonic shift that accompanied me after getting married and moving to a new place (Typing the post's title took me back to my first post and was enough to give me goosebumps). Maybe, I do a good job at it! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dwelling back in time, my husband and I were batch-mates in school, started dating while we were in college, dated for about nine years and finally got married. I feel, my words about getting married and the hum drum that accompanies an Indian wedding will be mere drops in an ocean of all that wed talk, so I’ll safely jump to the life that starts post-marriage, which, contrary to popular belief isn’t all about lots of sex or snuggling up for movies. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Getting married introduces a couple to many challenges, which in a subtle way can be life altering and also pushing enough for you to explore and dive into all those innate, subconscious life lessons your parents and your story-so-far gave you. I am lucky to have married someone I knew so closely, which is why sharing an emotional or physical space came easy. There wasn’t any (as it might be called) adjustments involved. We know and understand each other’s professional demands, schedules, habits – eating and living alike, so yes it did come in easy. In the present world, the moment we begin to speak about managing a house, conversations are quick to boil over the whole idea of working women empowerment, independence, the equality in partnership theory and the like, and yes bearing that onus and responsibility can be overwhelming at first. I did have a feeling or rather the belief (which girls these days consider as cool) that I don’t know anything. But once again, thanks to my mum who managed both her professional life and her home so perfectly and thanks to a lifetime of lessons absorbed observing her and yes thanks to our helpers (they deserve so much credit), looking after our house, cooking, and doing its interiors (if you follow me on Snapchat, you know it’s my new found love) is something I fell in love with immediately. So, like I mentioned at the start…the challenges are of a happy kind! </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
However, if I can be completely honest, coping with the professional arena has been the hardest for me. I have been truly blessed to have my husband and my family, provide a support system that encourages me to go out, chase my dreams and be the sport when it comes to achieving them. However, moving to a new city and putting together and getting oneself accustomed to the resources has been a challenge for me. The people are new and so is their approach and method towards work. Shoot locations don’t come easily and it’s been difficult to churn quality content for brands. On the other side, this straight line curve has been a boon in helping me strategize and work on newer avenues, concepts and business models. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Any change in life is bound to cause a tectonic shift in our approach towards it. I do reckon that marriage is that “new phase” that’s often talked about and pondered upon by all of us. But this change is also that time in your life when you’ll mature as an individual, expand (or rather double) your capabilities, grow your horizons, multiply your ideas and have an undefined, subconscious desire to be better that what you were before. However, wherever this journey takes many of you and myself, let it most importantly be about love…because in the end that is and was all that really mattered!

For me the beauty of fashion lies, broadly, across two lengths - one being the utilitarian aspect of it and the other being the constant resurrection of the wardrobe staples. The same comes up with my second fashion feature story with <a href="https://www.vaph.in/">VAPH.</a>. Much like my maiden love with the <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2015/08/trimmingsandlace-for-vaph-isabella-story.html">Isabella Loafers</a>, these <a href="https://www.vaph.in/collections/women/products/andrea-salmon">Andrea (Salmon)</a> sneakers instantly called out to me. Besides the gorgeousness in design and the finesse in skill, what really stood out for me on the day of the shoot was the comfort factor that came in with these shoes. The shoot literally had us walking endlessly from one end to the other in search of the sun, it had us running, jumping and skidding away to get a perfect shot, but this loyal pair didn't cringe a bit.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Taking inspiration from the fashion divas across the globe, I paired these on-trend-point sneakers with overalls sourced from <a href="http://www.stalkbuylove.com/collection/dungarees.html?dir=desc&order=production_date">Stalk Buy Love</a> that lent a hipster vibe to the look, while the classic red lips and them sunglasses bought in the glamourous charm of the 70s. If you are a 90s kid, you definitely would remember having a love-hate relationship with the overalls. They either were your go-to wardrobe piece when you wished to dress up like the Rachel Greens of the world or there were times when they remained confined to the zones of farmers and toddlers. Irrespective of the sides you were on, the good news coming from the fashion radar is that this perfect hybrid of a comfortable pair of trousers and an uber glamourous jumpsuit has had a glorious comeback. Further, I decided to keep the other elements of the look minimal and added some statement jewellery pieces and this fringe bag for effect.</div>

If we are 'fashion influencers' in the actual sense of the word, we do draw our outfits based on our subconscious story. This very outfit comes from a place of exploration, self evaluation, complexity and passion, which is probably why it comes this late. The only facet that runs linear throughout this outfit post, much like our lives, is time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I say exploration because as I took time off to settle and soak in the beautiful challenges of a married life, and slowed down my 'virtual social activity' I came across the works of many a many bloggers and the endless chain of blogs that have come up. Did I go through all of them? YES. Did I like all of them? NO. Did it leave me underwhelmed and a little skeptical towards the trends prevailing in the blogging industry? CERTAINLY YES.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I say self evaluation, because this allowed me or rather forced me to go back and see what I had been doing so far. Perhaps I was too disconnected to realize how commercial the industry has become. How effortlessly that voice of creativity has been sucked in and how glamorously plagiarism, promotions and directionless styling in the name of fashion prevails.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I say complexity because in all dramatics, the content has lost its glory and what substantiates the quality of a blog are the numbers. I have a ***K following, my content is a little similar to what I wrote in standard 8th or at times better because I was able to rip it off from Vogue.com, I won't have time to style your pieces to the fullest because I have multiple projects in the pipeline but I have ***K followers...so the rest obviously doesn't matter. The scenario for me personally is very sad and disappointing because the industry was nothing like this when I started. Blogging was first a medium for self and then for anyone else. But Alas!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I say passion because, although this trend is discouraging to say the least, I believe in doing what I know and doing it right. I believe that it is the only tool you need for longevity. Yes, it might not give you a herd, it might not even be commercially viable but atleast you'll have a voice.</div>

In a very long time perhaps, penning a post (again) seemed liked a challenge. With the exploding real-time bomb a.k.a the social media you already know about the Spring/Summer'16 trends, must-haves, dos and don'ts. Is there any particular trend this outfit conveys? Lace, crop-tops, culottes...you get the clue. Should I talk about life post marriage? Do readers really have time for it? Should I create a 'virtual' zone for my wedding festivities? Or should I tell you about the projects I am flooded with with or how stressful March endings are supposed to be with all the tax returns. Should I interest you with projects in the pipeline or with selfies at the fashion week. Maybe, I can do a house-tour and delusion you guys with the fanciness of a blogger life. I can pitch in my wedding outfits, venues and jewellery too. Do I sound cynical? Does the blogger life seem much of a fad? Maybe you can join me on Snapchat (@TrimmingsNdLace) to have a glimpse of mine. Subtle Marketing. Or maybe for now, we can just hope for India to beat Australia in Cricket tomorrow.</div>

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">Dressing chic and staying stylish during winters can often seem
like a job in hand. As temperatures get more and more frigid, the layers start
to bulk up and you often feel more like a person wearing a marshmallow than a
woman in her best garb. Black pants, same old sweater and that go-to coat, well
yes it is easy to get stuck in a rut during winters when the weather is
miserable. However, a look curated with the right pieces – the coats, furs,
scarves, hats and jewellery – dressing up becomes incredibly easy. Hence, as we
stepped into the last run of the winter season, this pet
project with team <a href="http://www.vajor.com/">Vajor</a> had to come through.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">Street style has become one of the most popularly accepted and
recognized fashion genre. Unlike the VIP accessed fashion shows, street style
is your runway to showcase your style for the masses to see and eventually
adopt. It’s that wheel that has set many a trends rolling and has also been a
forecast into the future. Needless, to say this livewire genre was our
inspiration for this month’s fashion stories. For the same, I chose to style
pieces which are classics in terms of colour and silhouette but are very modish
when put together as a whole. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">The first look comprised of a black maxi <a href="http://www.vajor.com/clothing/skirts.html">skirt</a> paired with a
quilted <a href="http://www.vajor.com/clothing/shirts-and-tops.html">top</a>. The zipper details on the top render an edginess to the overall
look but I chose to mellow down the same, keeping the overall appeal very
feminine by adding this vintage broach</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">. This look not only makes for a perfect work-wear
but also if your profession demands you to strut the city streets like a boss.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

shall now seem a little less difficult. Afterall, when fashion, love and coffee
comes together, why ought anything to be difficult. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">As each year comes to an end, it is inherently natural to reflect back on the journey so far and visualize what lies ahead. I am someone who has always had a mental to-do-this-year list but has never affirmed myself to any resolutions. That is largely because I feel much of the adventure called life is lost when you confine it to rules and game plans. I am also someone whose list this year isn't as fancy or decorative to write home about - to travel more, to build an empire, to look my best - you get the drill. And that's also because the year is commencing with a positively life altering phase and that's "getting married." I am in all honesty at a loss of words to describe my feelings but all I can say is that I am so ready and excited to witness and experience the many valuable moments, experiences, lessons and a holistic growth this phase will bring for me, both personally and professionally. </span></span><br />

Like each of us who blogs, TrimmingsAndLace has been a personal diary of mine, a memoir that has captured the mood behind every post, the story behind each shoot and the general stage of life I was in. It might have been concealed by the words published but the memories of it are stronger and shall always be. Like a faithful book, it has helped me explore fashion ideas, concepts and ideologies like never before. By way of connecting and following such brilliant other blogs, it has made me strive and share a passion with such creative forces and influencers. By being a participant in their journey, I have seen their city through their eyes and have been utterly inspired by their thoughts and ideas. It is through this channel, that I could dream of being someone and have received a conscience resonance of an identity. None of this, would have been possible without each one of you who has shared my journey, become my virtual well wishers, stopped by my posts, commented, shared or even told me if it wasn't good enough. Each of you has contributed in making me who I am as a person today - be that in a professional role, the role of a daughter, sister, friend and now the role of a soon-to-be wife. The journey is just getting started, so do stick around as we explore and make it grand. </div>

In an environment where everything - from societies in general to industries in particular - is a live-wire and is constantly evolving, the complexity is in the simplicity. Fashion as a genre is expanding exponentially and each day has a newer dimension to adopt and follow. The challenge herein remains to perfect the classic and better the simple. Something as timeless as a black and white <a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/11/trimmingsandlace-for-vajor-one-against.html">outfit</a> can have multiple layers when it comes to styling and representation. That basically was my challenge, when this gorgeously ruffled <a href="https://www.facebook.com/fervour.bangalore/photos/pb.1444222685805065.-2207520000.1451405342./1770201536540510/?type=3&theater">Dsquared2</a> blouse was sent to me by the wonderful team at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/fervour.bangalore/?fref=photo">Fervour</a>. Fervour is a Bangalore based luxury house that shelves and retails a number of luxury brands - from Dsquared2 to Marc Jacobs, from Nina Ricci to Iceberg - all under one roof. For the longest time ever, the Indian connect with these luxury brands has rested in the hands of holiday travels and visiting relatives. Thankfully, with houses like Fervour, luxury indeed is at our doorsteps. Not to miss mentioning, all apparels and accessories retailed are one hundred percent originals.</div>

On receiving this top, my reflex response was that how difficult can it be to style a white top. A printed skirt or a pair of shorts with a bright blazer, anything would work. But once I began playing with these ideas in my dressing room, I realized that the challenge herein lied in keeping the look simple and letting the structure and details of the blouse speak for themselves. Which is why, the entire concept of this post is positioned to reflect a play of textures than merely a styling endeavour. These sandals and cuff, I feel, added another dimension to the entire look and incorporated a sense of directional contrast to the look. Finally, not to let go colour completely, I added the mini Dsquared2 cross-body bag from Fervour again.<br />

Undeniably, the charm of getting dressed for a wedding is unparalleled. Even though there can be times when your presence at every wedding of the season becomes necessary which in turn makes dressing up a chore, largely the whole fanciness around a wedding and dressing up for the same remains...well fancy. However, there is a harshly subtle reality to the whole wedding dressing scenario. The reality states that dressing up is always easy and weddings are always fun when they belong to someone else. Having been the bride's sister a year ago and the bride-to-be myself, I can assure you that wedding planning isn't as glamorous as it seems to be or can be as organized as the Pinterest time tables prescribe. Work-out wears become OOTD and missed meals become the order of the day. Nonetheless, each moment of it all is overwhelming and divine. I feel truly blessed to be at this stage of my life and am certainly looking forward to all that is to come. And I shall surely see you around!<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">For any artist, I believe, eclecticism is a challenging side of the curve to be at. Your art must thrive in its exclusiveness but at the same time must resonate with the ideologies of your audience at large. For any artist to establish this reasoning as his identity is surely a feat. But to diversify and divulge and reinvent and yet remain grounded to the aesthetics is a sign of greatness. For me the husband-wife duo, the curators, the visionaries and the artists at <a href="http://www.chumbak.com/">Chumbak</a> fit this definition like no other. Chumbak’s entrepreneurial journey that started five years ago has always been an inspiration to me. Mainly because, it isn’t any rags to riches story that fits the texts of a case study but a narration of how far your dreams and your belief in them can take you. It is a story of what passions are made of and how sometimes it’s all about that one plunge. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The same came this October when Chumbak ventured into the apparel segment with the launch of <a href="http://www.chumbak.com/collection-one/xx6/c/">Collection One</a>. Collection One is your entree<i> </i>into Chumbak’s world of design, colour and print. Not to miss, the quintessential dose of insanity that is associated with Chumbak. So expect a whole new take on space, ocean, Pixel Art and food, all manifested into a fashion line, that has been designed to start conversations that never end and even when they do they end in smiles. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Unlike most of my posts, I didn’t shoot this look with a prior brief or perspective in mind. My only agenda was to have fun at the shoot and celebrate the genre of outfits that I haven’t really worn before. The designs and prints have an inherent playfulness to them, which automatically gets infused into you. And that is pretty much what happened to me during the shoot. So there were twirls and pouts, jumps and misses, hair flips and virtual kisses, ankle twists and laughs and a leap into this new sea of fashion. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This remains my favourite look from the <a href="http://www.vajor.com/">Vajor</a> <a href="http://www.trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2015/11/trimmingsandlace-for-vajor-bringing-it.html">series</a> because it gave me a
chance to exhibit my inner Dolce and Gabbana girl. I absolutely love the gold
tones in this outfit which so gracefully reflect the setting golden light of
Fall. A textured skirt and a stylishly structured top calls for smidgen yet
impactful styling. This look is perfect for all those card parties you'll be hosting
and attending. Add on a pair of statement earrings or a neck-piece or a
headband like me if you reckon, and you are bound to make many heads turn. I am
sure you've experimented and explored multiple dressing options when it comes
to festive dinners and parties - from completely Indian to completely western - a
look like this stylishly sits in between and is a winner in all respects. We
know that during this period, your routine gets happily hectic. With all the
running about, it can be difficult saving those feet for the dance floor. Which
is why, I finished the look with those gorgeous wedges that are extremely
comfortable and give the outfit the proportions it demands without making it
look bulky. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Especially during Diwali, when the time comes for action, the last thing
you want is to worry about the multiple elements in your look. Which is why an
outfit that speaks for itself is ideal. It lets all the fashion trends do the
talking while you head-out for the hustle, bustle and bang and to life in its
complete glory.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Among the many moments in life, when adrenaline rush thrives and the
monotony of life comprises itself in a time frame ever so characteristic and
dynamic, is the "festive season". As fashion enthusiasts we know
there are seasons and there are trends, but nothing beats that surreal feeling
when there is a new trend in the shape of a new day, each day. From much
awaited get-togethers with family to endless conversations till the wee hours
of the morning. From card parties with friends to all those exciting food
menus. From the absolutely necessary shopping trips to planning for all the
upcoming shaadis. The festive season is a bountiful of moments and occasions
and definitely calls for special outfits for each. So as you chalk out your
schedules, your dressing woes rest with the amazing fashion house that <a href="http://www.vajor.com/">Vajor</a> is. I've associated with team <a href="http://www.vajor.com/">Vajor</a> to curate for you guys three looks, from
the <a href="http://www.vajor.com/collection/festive-collection-products.html">The Great Festive Collection</a> and their <a href="http://www.vajor.com/limited-edition.html">Exclusive Limited Edition</a>, which can be styled in multiple ways
and can be taken from day to night with minimal effort. I am thrilled and super
excited to bring these to you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

during this season. Though the inclination remains to adorn Indian, the festive
season sets the perfect backdrop to try more contemporary silhouettes. For my
first look, I styled this modish version of the Indian Kurta. I absolutely love
the print on it and I feel it is a statement in its own right. To complement
the same, I added a bindi in a strong mustard to bring all the colours together
and to reflect a contrast in Indian and contemporary tones. For me this outfit
is a reflection of the onset of the festivities, a calm and composed start for
all the extravagance that follows this season. I recommend this outfit for the
day when you are attending guests, having luncheons or for pujas. For the
night, I would like to style this outfit with my favourite pair of stilettos,
statement earrings and deck up my hair with some marigold or jasmine flowers. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

One of the many things I missed at the onset of my blogging career was events and blogger meet-ups which gave a chance to bloggers to connect with their audience in person. Luckily, my wish wasn't kept hanging for long with the <a href="http://www.lifestylestores.com/">Lifestyle</a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lifestylestores/photos/pb.318503670217.-2207520000.1444251335./10153474942690218/?type=3&theater">Style Circle</a> event coming to Chandigarh. Like most moments in our life, when this moment actually came I was left anxious and cold-in-the-feet to say the least. From outfit fittings to media interactions, to seeing stand-ies of self to announcements in the stores and to finally meeting so many of you, these moments will remain etched in my memory to perfection and are utmost surreal. From the bottom of my heart I take this chance to thank each one of you for making this experience so memorable and every ounce of hard work put into this journey truly worth it. You all are wonderful and inspiring and beautiful. Also, many thanks to the Lifestyle team - from the event managers, media managers, store managers to the ground staff - for being on their feet throughout the event making sure, every minute of it, that we live our dream. Thank you! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Style Circle series was basically a presentation of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lifestylestores?fref=photo">Lifestyle's</a> collection for <a href="http://www.lifestylestores.com/">Autumn/Winter 2015.</a> The collection is a brilliant concoction of some timeless prints and classics like Ikats, denims, bold winter florals, aztec prints and boho silhouettes. For the main event, my outfit was a chic sequinned dress which I paired with a cheery coral blazer (both from CODE) and turquoise earrings for contrast (See <a href="https://instagram.com/p/8Ihzz3tIzE/?taken-by=trimmingsandlace">look</a>).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this main feature story, I decided to pick pieces which the collection boasted of. No other garment makes itself so deliciously wearable and is also as uniquely reflective of personal style like denim. Denim is timeless and season-less and frankly something we cannot imagine our closets without. The designers this Spring 2015, presented denim in various iterations - from the perfect-for-all jeans to overalls, from culottes to shirt-dresses - and it seems to have transcended into Fall with perfect ease. For the base element of my look, I picked this denim dress because it spelled comfort, ease and a little surprise the minute my eyes caught it. I also felt that it is an absolute must-have for the closet because it can be taken from casual to uber glamorous and is an option that will remain safe nonetheless. I chose to complement this dress and introduce the quintessential Fall layering, with another gorgeous piece from the collection i.e. this aztec print, fringed long vest. I strongly believe that a complete closet is the one which includes statement pieces that can be styled with almost anything, and this vest/cardigan checks all boxes for me. To structure the entire look I clinched my waist with a contrast belt. Further to extend the boho element of this entire collection, I added a print contrast and finished the look with my ever-so-favourite leopard pumps (<a href="http://trimmingsandlace.blogspot.in/2014/12/trimmingsandlace-for-maxfashions-didnt.html">here</a>).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my accessories, I wanted to go a bit old school and in tune with the denim fashion of the 50s. Hence, a rush of gold, pearls and red followed with more of the fringe from the bag. Thanks to Lifestyle I am ready to welcome Fall with aplomb. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
