Winter Contrary : Sequins and Powder Pink


                                                                                   

                                                                             

                                                                              

                                                                              

                                                                              

                                                                             

Considering the climatic conditions in which I pen this outfit post, it indeed is contradictory. As of today or the past fifteen days, I haven't enjoyed the privilege of wearing just one layer or even baring my legs! However, what is not conflicting and can be agreed upon is the fact that fashion lasts forever. Trends come and go, but trends that choose to stay, become a chapter to be swallowed in the ever expanding fashion Bible. Case in point - Sequins and bling! I wouldn't call sequins and bling a 'trend' anymore. They are fashion, bookmarked to last forever. Be that spring/summer or fall/winter there are always reasons and ways enough to adorn bling. What can vary per say is how you choose to wear it. Traditionally, fall/winter calls for deeper shades. But with this particular look I decided to attempt monotones. The good part about monotones is that you get to play with textures by way of your accessories. To experiment that, I picked up every accessory matching the gold skirt and the powder pink cardigan (let's call it blush pink please!). On a separate note, blush pink is fast climbing my color crush list. Stay tuned to see more of it this summer. For the while, do you remember this blush pink look?

Wearing - 

Skirt - ASOS
Cardigan - United Colors of Benetton
Peep-toes - Vero Moda (here and here)
Neckpiece - H&M
Watch and Bracelet - Mom's
Clutch - Clinique 
On my nails : Loreal Paris Color Riche - Purple Disturbia (here)


On another MAJOR note, the first collection of TrimmingsAndLace designs is now available for sale. You can view the collection here and place an order by writing to me at trimmingsandlace@yahoo.in

The Little Red Wonder!!


Honest (and kind) suggestions are more than welcome. For those who love seeing me in pictures, don't worry blog videos is something I won't do often (perhaps only the times my dearest photographer - my MOM is away!!) until I find someone who is pro at making one :D

Somethings Are Never Just "Basic"

Hello People :) 

How are you all? I am still having the same woes regarding the weather and blah but I am also extremely overwhelmed by the wonderful support and encouragement you have been giving to my blog. A big big Thank You to you all. I hope, wish and pray for our togetherness for ever and ever :):)

This very outfit post of mine is my attempt to brighten up the basic jeans-T-Shirt routine. Jeans undoubtedly are the most comfortable garment one can slip into. Its not just the comfort that makes it a hit...its the durability factor (buying jeans in an investment..the garment stays with you for years and post that comands Vintage Value :p) as well. Also Jeans are the cushion(s) you can fall upon when on certain days your wardrobe just refuses to welcome you with a friendly embrace. Throw on a pair of your favourite Jeans, team it up with a T-Shirt, Shirt, Kurta or a formal blouse with some flats or heels and you are set to rock on for a casual/formal event.

However, if you truly get into the role of a FASHION BLOGGER wearing just the basic Jeans-T-Shirt even on "ONE OF THOSE DAYS" can pinch. Here is how I pumped up (sorry for the lack of a better word) two of my very basic outfits. I have to admit that on these two days my creativity cells were on fire.

Let me know what you think about that??

OUTFIT ONE - ALL THINGS BLUE

The day I happened to wear this outfit I felt as if I have wandered into some 'Bubble-Gum' world because all I saw around me were the sugar colours - Turquoise and Pink. Have a look :)




 I wore a basic Turquoise tank (last worn here) with a Pink-Magenta warp. I accessorized the look by wearing a star pendant chain and a smiley cocktail ring, which in fact were not accessories. The star pendant is a key-chain from Madame Tussauds, New York and the smiley cocktail ring is a normal hair-band worn as a ring. 



On My Blue Bed Cover :)  



Neighbour's Pots :p


Wearing:
Jeans: Levi's
Tank: Aeropostale
Wrap: UCB
Peep-toes: Local store


OUTFIT TWO - OLD WORLD CHARM




In this very outfit, I wore the same Jeans with a nude blouse. Further I added a black summer jacket over it. To enhance the old world charm of the neutrals, I pined a black satin rose broach and a pearl neck-piece on the jacket's collar.

 
I completed the look with ballerina's in gold (you can catch just a glimpse of those in the picture below :( :( ) and a black tote.


Wearing:
Jeans: Levi's
Nude Blouse: Thrifted Dubai
Black Summer Jacket: Jonathan Martin Dubai
Bag: Elle
Rose Broach: Too old to remember!!
Pearls: Thrifted Australia
Ballerina's: Thrifted Chandigarh

So, Do you have a favourite from the two?? If Yes, I would love to know <3<3

The Stockings love!!

Hey all..how have you been? This post comes after quite a while..well please forgive me as I am in the middle of 2 weeks of strenous, scary exams!! No matter how many I take - the pressure, stress and anxiousness is as new and as fresh since I last took them :(
Anyhow, for this post I have compiled a few of my looks wherein you would see me wearing stockings!!
Its interesting to note that stockings have been a part of the wardrobes since the 15th century and were primarily worn by men. As fashion and fashion aesthetics evolved so did this very piece..and came as a friend for the females...
Today stockings are available in a wide range of colours and techniques be that LACE :), fishnet, fencenet, denier, applique or sheer.
So here are my looks:
Look 1






Wearing : Sweater Dress Slimmer New York,  Satchel bag Juicy Couture and my ballerina flats with a cute shimmery butterfly and the stockings are from Dubai (thrift).

Look 2 has me looking like a school girl :):)







Wearing: Stockings Forever 21, Ballerina flats from Dubai and the rest trust me is thrifted :p

Look 3


I wasnt supposed to be minus that..was I?

Look 4


Wearing: Stockings Forever 21, Dress UCB, Bag Nine West, Ballerina Flats Lifestyle. I chose yellow flats and yellow accessories to go with this dress just to add some colour and fun.

Also you can see me wearing stockings here
