Fashion and style fanatics across the globe have never been this thankful. To be able to 'dress-up' and then swap stilettos for sneakers and yet remain in the domains of being stylish, is a trend revolution like no other. From the streets to the red carpet, there has been absolutely no stopping this trend. Further to see it being adorned in countless ways (read jeans, boyfriend jeans, skirts, dresses, suits, you name it) brings yet another unbridled thrill in its being. Which is why when I was received this pair of sneakers by AdidasOriginals, at the very first thought I was clueless and undecided whether to stick to my styling aesthetics or opt for a normcore or a minimalistic look. My underlying idea though was well defined. To create a look which highlights comfortable dressing without sacrificing style. Which is why, I chose to step completely outside my comfort zone, wore my dressy maxi, threw on this sweater dress as an added layer and left the sneakers to do the rest.

The fashion circuit is certainly rejoicing as the sportswear turns couture (take a clue). So before you label those track pants as 'gym alone', that sweatshirt as 'weekend night at home alone' or your favourite sneakers as 'for running alone', think again! But don't forget to let me know by commenting below, or on my Instagram or Twitter. I hope you liked the look!

Life & Me

Hello Lovelies!!

It seems I no longer need to shout from rooftops my love for stockings and how much of a winter staple they are for me.

That was my outfit, definitely intended to brighten a typical winter day. Yes, perhaps the amusement park visit with my four year old brother, the rides and endless doses of McFlurry and french fries (oooppsss it is OK to spoil yourself..I never proclaimed I was a celebrity *wink*) wasn't enough to make the day brighter!!

I teamed up my purple turtleneck sweater dress with orange stockings (Winter Colour-Blocking???) to create a very basic and bright look. Turtlenecks are back from an exile thanks to designers like Poebe Philo, Raf Simmons and Altuzarra and continue to uphold the charm of sophistication and chicness. 

Wearing:

Sweater Dress from GAP

Stockings from Forever 21

Ballerina Flats from Macy's

Bag from Gucci

Vintage Trench - Its my mom's and roughly 25 years old :D

Orange turtleneck sweater (worn underneath) is too old to remember :p

P.S One of my readers recently wrote to me stating that what I call as 'stockings' should rightly be addressed as tights or pantyhose. Error regretted!!

Leaving you guys with some really interesting quotes I picked up from a rather popular Facebook page called Life is a Bitch Quotes. I found it quite late :(:(

I hope my lovely readers follow me on Facebook and Twitter too :D

From the archives - Royal Purple

Hello everyone!! Whats been happening? I am sure the holiday season has kickstarted for all of you and you all are set with your plans :) I have had a busy week with lots of family engagements and as my luck would have it (embarrassed :(:( ) I havnt been that dressy.

So in this sultry weather, for today's post I plan to archive a few of my looks from fall winter. Now before you go eewwww at the thought of all those woollens I promise to keep this one cool..:p

As I was shuffling through some of my photographed outfits, I observed that I wore a lot of purple this season. So I picked up a few for you to see :)

Look 1

Wearing: Tights Ginger, Cardigan Gap, Black T-Shirt thrifted from Dubai, Ballerina's thrifted from New York, Tasselled Bag and ring gift :*

Look 2

Look 2 was a wholesum mix of some florals, bows and ya fur :) The runways for Autumn/Winter 2010-2011 did showcase a lot of florals (read Dolce & Gabbana, Giorgio Armani, Louis Vuitton among others) and fur (read the classic Chanel). Besides a major reinvention came via THE CHRISTOPHER BAILEY (I'm a huge fan!!) who revisited the Burberry archives and modified the classic aviator jackets. What came as a double treat was the pairing of these strong,bold jackets with soft feminine lace, floral and chiffon dresses and gowns.

Though I couldnt be that pro at it, this look was certainly inspired from the prevailing scenario then :)

Wearing: Jeans Levis, Floral blouse quite old to remember :p, Grey Pumps Local store, Bag Vincci

CONFESSION: What I tied as a bow is actually the belt of the cardigan I wear in Look 1 :p:p

Look 3

This look of mine is truly Vintage as the jacket which I wear is over 10 years old. It belonged to my sister and was eventually passed on to me. It is hand embroided and is stiched in fine organza :) The tank which is I wore underneath is in purple, though the light fuses it into a different shade (which i quite like :) )

I wore rich purple kitten heels with this outfit (thrifted from Delhi) and Gold leaf earings from Aldo.

I hope I made the post interesting :) Keep visiting for lots more...
