By the pool

Top- Banana Republic, Shorts-Local shop, Neckpiece-Primark

I have been loving the sheer look  lately, i decided to wear it  on my recent holiday trip by the poolside , thought we are'nt always there to plunge inside the pool. Lounging around the pool with a drink in my hand is my way. :)

I  wore my white denim shorts and paired it with white printed sheer top. Sheer clothing is huge this season, it's a perfect mix of feminine and sexy also not baring all while showing the right amount of skin, while highlight your best feature in an unexpected way.

Well here are some points to remember while sporting sheer trend-

The most important thing while wearing sheer clothing is to choose which part of your body you would  like to highlight the most, choose your clothing accordingly like sheer skirts for lean legs.

Wearing a good lingerie is most important while wearing sheer tops, choosing a wrong lingerie can make your whole outfit  look really bad.

Never wear a head to toe sheer.  balance it with solid colours , like wearing a coloured bottoms and sheer top.

Pair it with minimal accessories to give a clean look.

On the road

Hello there lovelies as you know about my previous post on beauty essentials to carry on road trip, now i am going to show you"how to do dress chic on road trip".  Firstly the most important thing you should remember is to wear comfortable clothing, and it dose not mean  wearing baggy shorts or an oversize top or your favourite lounging track pants, it'a a total NO NO!..you don wont to appear very laid back , just stylish yet relaxed looking when you arrive at your destination.

Here are the pictures of what i wore

Dress- thrifted, Belt- old( cant remember),Shoes-Bata, Neckpiece- Kalakarni

What i wore is a Navy blue nautical stripes dress  with a full length sleeves in a  light knit material to banish those air-condition chills . i would suggest you to carry a light jacket or a cardigan incase of the AC blast. Accessories should be  simple and non-fussy like adding a belt as i have and wearing light weight jewellery is a way to go.Wearing ballet flats is a good option , you can also opt for wedge heel shoes depending upon your level of comfort.

Well here are some looks i put together to help  you choose better option while on the road :)

Head turner

The fashion week fever is still not over  and while still adapting to the latest trends here's some of the bags which were quite a head turner at the SS13 runway, with their  unusual shapes and size which are more towards modern or may i say futuristic also an idea of whats comming in the future.The lego shaped clutch and fendi's cubix bag  tells us it's more than just carrying the bag ,these styles are fierce, strong and bold. Although it's a daring option and some of them may seem impractical, but i say what the hell! The famous Cecil Beaton said" Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary. " 

These bags are more than just statement making pieces, carrying it to a party or for lunch with friends.I bet these babies won't get unnoticed or people asking about it. 

What do you guys think? are you ready to take on this trend?

till then ... toodless :)

The other way round

Top- Street find(fashion street), Shorts-H&M,Bag-Gifted,Belt-Primark,Shoes-Custom made,Ring- Thrifted(goa), Pink bauble neckpiece-street find(colaba causeway),Floral neckpiece- Primark.

Recently i have been digging out all my shorts in my wardrobe,this animal print is my favourite.I have always had an attraction towards things which has an animal print on it specially the leopard ones, thought i always played it safe by wearing black or white,this time i teamed it up with mint colour the fresh and cool colour for the summer, i was'nt sure first about how it would look but when i accessorized it with black belt and layered neckpieces it worked just fine, sometimes accessorizing right is just what you need to complete the outfit.Animal print is considered more of a classic than a trend, the new way to wear is  to mix it with different prints and clashing colours, if you are not sure how to wear here are some tips and pics to work it out

To start off with you can team it up with one single vibrant colour, You can choose any one colour which stands out well like orange, pink, green which ever suits you, you just have to find that right shade to match with your print and skin tone as well.

You can even mix two different prints. it's a bit daring option but teaming  it with right prints and colour is all you need the colour tones should compliment each other like brown/red, blue/ green, orange/ black also if it's a monochrome print  most colours  look good.

Adding two prints in the same tone with a  one single contrast  colour  also looks good, i would suggest to keep the prints minimal and the colour should blend with the whole outfit.

Get your Orange

Stripes dress ( worn as a top)- Topshop,  Skirt-H&M, Shoes- Parmars(london), Neckpiece-Street find (colaba causeway), Bag- LCF( designed by my college), Brass bangles-Street find (lokhandwala), Nude bangle-Primark, Sunglasses- gifted.

The hot humid weather finally bring the summer on top of us, this calls for tall cool drinks , poolside and nauticals. I have always liked the nautical theme,think cruise trips and yatch party, also stripes being this season's huge hit. So I decided to pair my striped dress with an orange skirt to give it a more contrast and bold look. This summer i advise you to stock up on orange because this vibrant and lively colour is back in different hues from tangerine to coral as seen on SS13 runway by Carolina Herrera who did a full bodied bold orange where as Victoria Beckham chose to tone it down with white and black also the neutral orange by Ermanno Scervino. Many people shy away from this colour, but choosing a right shade is all you need,tangerine and bright hues of orange goes really well with olive and brown skin tones if you are on a fairer side choose lighter and softer shade of orange like soft coral or salmon.Accessorize it with contract shade for colour blocking, like i have  or go neutral for subtle look.Here are some SS13 runway look for orange trend to help you out.

Oh so NEON

Ever wondered the pop colour reoccuring on the fashion trend radar, be it "Never Mind the Soup Cans" Andy Warhol's pink cow the pop art guru or the 80's Miami Vice show.
Here am talking about "Neon", the distractingly awesome colour, from jelly shoes to flashing lingerie. it started in the 80's and the colour is so here to stay!









Jumpsuit-RiverIsland, Denim Shirt-Primark, Bangles-RiverIsland, Shoes-NewLook, White Shirt- picked up from the streets, Neckpiece-Kalakarni.

So I decided to start my summer with bright neon green cutwork jumpsuit from river island with side slits which is perfect for a hot summer day at a beach or just lounging around the pool, you can play it up with colourful bikini inside or cover up with breezy cotton shirt like i have for the perfect laid-back look.To give it a more edge throw on your old denim jacket or an overszise denim shirt as i have, wear long neckpieces if your jumpsuit is short it gives you an elongated look you can go OTT with layered neckpieces and chunky bangles will complete the look. Flats or Heels wear according to your comfort for me it's always heels.

Get  your neons out and go bright this summer!.... till then toodles :)
