Spring marks an enthralling transformation in the life of the living beings and in the many processes of life. The gloomy days of the winters begin to fade in memories, the frozen earth sprungs new buds in anticipation of growth and brightness and the senses of sight, sound and smell rejoice in absolute harmony. As the living beings delight in resurrection, quickened sensibilities and youthfulness, the fashion world opens new reins to colours and prints. Like fashion and style trends, the glamour of spring remains unchanged. But it seems to have found a lasting companion in colours, textures, prints, cuts and Instagram. In March, I associated with Lifestyle International to showcase their Spring/Summer'15 collection which celebrates the energy, zeal, passion and immense talent hosted by individuals across varied fields and how dynamic is their #InstaLife. True to idea, the Spring/Summer collection at Lifestyle is an amazing conglomerate of trends and fashion moments. From florals to stripes, from fringes to laces, from yellows to summer whites, from military to denim, from crop tops to culottes, the list seems endless. But if you are someone who wishes to be bang on trend without burning the pocket, this collection is surely a haven for you.

For this styling project, I stuck to the books and trend reports and picked up pieces in yellow, a pair of denim culottes, a basic white lace dress and an Aztec print blazer (here). For this very look, I decided to keep the whole look very minimal and carefree and paired this lace crop top with a pair of culottes. The day started with clear skies but quite unlike my idea of spring, it suddenly changed into one downpour of sorts. Which is why, unlike last time, I decided to keep it relaxed in brogues with my messy, wind affected and half wet hair as company. But isn't doing it 'now' and capturing the real time is what #InstaLife holds for? To finish the look and still keep it a little dressy, I added a contrast by these purple statement drops.

Though, our shoot was a pack-up in 15 minutes, I am thrilled with the job done by Saajan (@sajanaroraphotography) and Ravit (@ravkdesigns) on the pictures. Don't forget to stop by their work and show some love. I hope you enjoyed the post and my experience of it all!

A lot of back-end activities for the blog have kept me occupied the past few days. Add to that the festival fervour and the inherent love and nostalgia October brings in for me. Hence, I missed touching base with this space. With the crispness of Autumn finally drawing in, I can't wait to share my styling ideas with you all. Till then, here's an snippet from life over Instagram. Thank you for being around!

A few days back I had an opportunity to share with you guys the latest initiative in fashion by Max. The event was all the more special for me because I was hosting the same as the official stylist and fashion adviser for Max. Being in a virtual space, we bloggers get limited chances to interact with our readers and all those who make our work what it is. Being an event which captured my facets of fashion, style and photography, it undoubtedly grabbed a lot of audience. This gave me an opportunity to indulgence in an overwhelming experience to meet and interact with some of you. Thank you to all those who came and spared time. I hope to bump into our selfies someday. Thank you to all those you gave in such meaningful suggestions about my work. I hope to stand up to those. And, thank you to Max for this amazing opportunity for me to feel and spread some love. Truly grateful!

If you've been following me on Instagram, you might as well be knowing where I am spending my Fridays (clue). Fridays aren't and never will be the same again as Max - India's leading fashion value chain launches its latest initiative Max Trenday. Max is among the leading fashion brands offering its customers a one stop shop for clothing, accessories and footwear. A division of Lifestyle International (P) Ltd., Max is a pioneer in the concept of 'value fashion' in the country, thereby offering the discerning shopper a vast choice in international fashion and quality. With over 92 stores in 43 cities across India, it is an absolute delight for me to be bringing the 'Max Trenday' celebrations from Chandigarh as the official stylist and fashion adviser for the brand.

Launched on August 8, 2014 Max Trenday is all set to increase the glamour quotient among the city fashionistas. Also, this debuting property is a platform for the trendy youth to showcase their fashion quotient. How? Well, the aspirants will be put through a rigorous audition process out of which 20 of them will be hand-picked based on traits such as their confidence, style and ramp-walk. Following this, the winners will be declared through a glitzy grand finale.

The highlight of the campaign is the selfie contest, where the consumers can take a picture of themselves at the exclusive selfie zone set up at the Max stores. The selfies will then be uploaded on the Max's Facebook page where entries with the highest votes stand a chance to not only win Max gift vouchers and hampers, but also a chance to walk the ramp at the Max Trenday Grand Finale.

The TrimmingsAndLace readers based in Chandigarh can join me and be a part of this excitement on August 15th. It is time to 'Look Good, Feel Good' with Max Trenday. 

Don't forget to join me on Instagram and Twitter, if you haven't already!
