Hi Everyone! 

This is the second look I created with the brand Rose Gal. While the first look was quite tomboyish and sporty, this one happens to be quite the opposite. Here, I decided to wear something that's super soft and feminine. While I tend to stick to black and darker colours on most occasions, I couldn't get past this white dress.  I've been obsessed with the off-shoulder dresses and tops for ages now and this one like all the others looked and felt great when I tried it on. I decided to keep the styling of this as simple as possible so that no attention was taken away from the dress. I paired it with a choker (which is pretty much the only accessory I wear these days) and a pair of pointed flats. x

Hi Everyone!

Ever felt like you have a split personality when it comes to your clothes? I could divide my closet into parts and feel like each part belongs to a different person. The mood I'm in always has the biggest impact on what I decide to wear. On most occasions like this one, I tend to stick to my casual and comfortable clothes. Those usually tend to be quite sporty. In this two part collaboration, I showcase two completely opposite styles of mine. 

The first look I created with Rose Gal, was more sporty and tomboyish as seen above. Since I'm currently (and have always been) obsessed with bomber jackets, I knew I had to get my hands on this green one and style it. It's quite a thin bomber jacket and can hence be worn in the heat as well. I paired it with a basic grey crop top that is super versatile. As said before, I kept the entire look quite sporty by wearing an A-line denim skirt and loafers. x

Slipping back into my Comfort Zone

Dress- The Label Life// Jacket- Zara// Shoes- Vaph Shoes

Hi Everyone! 

I'm currently completely infatuated with slip dresses. My style has always been trying to find the perfect combination of simple and chic and I think slip dresses have now become a go-to item of clothing of mine. It hits all the marks for me. They're super comfortable, the silhouette is flattering and they can be styled in so many different ways that it makes them so much fun to experiment with. I've currently been loving how bloggers WeWoreWhat and Peace Love Shea have styled them with a t-shirt underneath. While that would probably be the next way I decide to wear the dress, for this occasion I decided to pair it with one of my staples; a denim jacket.

To no surprise, I kept the styling of this dress quite casual. I added a choker since they're pretty much the only accessory I've been wearing these days and wore the dress with these beautiful nude Oxfords. I've been talking about these shoes on my Instagram ever since I got them. They are without a doubt the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. I first tried them out at the pop-up in the Brass Tacks store, I knew I had to get my hands on them. I kid you not, I haven't been wearing anything else since. Definitely check out the Vaph website. They have great shoes that are high in quality and comfort. x

Colour Explosion

Hi Everyone! 

As I said in my previous post, I'm trying to experiment a lot more these days and try out more styles and colours. Being someone who usually wears all black and denim on most occasions, I decided to go in the complete opposite direction with this post. I made sure that this outfit was going to be all about colour. I'm a sucker for flowy A-line dresses just like this one from Missa More. Although, this dress is so different from any other I own. I absolutely adore the print on it. The dress is also super comfortable and the fabric feels amazing when you wear it. If it wasn't so memorable, I would've made sure to make it a staple piece in my closet because of the style and the fit. To play it safe, I would normally wear a dress like this with a neutral pair of shoes (almost always black). However, in this post I decided to style it with my maroon Oxfords and thought they complimented the dress perfectly. Without stealing focus from the dress, I love how the shoes add something more to the look and pulls it all together. x

Hi Everyone! 

I'm going through a phase where I'm trying to step out of my comfort zone and experiment with with different brands and styles that I wouldn't have typically worn in the past. Still trying to stay as true to myself as possible of course, I've started to enjoy and appreciate a larger variety of clothing options. I'm really hoping everyone is adoring this Mogra dress as much as I am. I mean, how gorgeous is it? I have to say though, I did steal this dress from my sister. I find it great how I've learnt about a few new brands through her. When I saw that she bought this, I knew I had to wear it immediately.

Skater dresses are definitely a style I have worn a lot of. I think it's super flattering for my body type and I've always loved the way I feel in them. The reason I would say this is something I wouldn't have typically worn in the past is because of the print. I've recently become a bigger fan of Indo-western clothes and I'm definitely taking joy in styling them in different ways. I mostly try to pair my skater dresses with heels since it generally makes my legs look longer. To complete the outfit, I added a simple black crossbody to ensure that the focus stayed on the dress. x

Hi Everyone! 

I'm glad that I finally have the chance to post this collaboration I did with Roshini and Tanmayi of RAW diaries a while ago. I've been a big fan of their blog since they started it and had so much fun working with them on the post. The three of us have showcased our own versions of looks we would wear during the monsoon season. All three of them however, are layered which make it easier to adapt to the unpredictability of the weather in Bangalore. 

Me- With the weather in Bangalore getting much cooler, I love that I’m able to pull out my jackets and layer my clothes. Keeping in line with the inspiration for my blog, this outfit was inspired by one I would wear in London. The dress from Forever 21 is so versatile and comfortable and can be worn for a number of occasions based on the way it’s styled. I decided to pair that with my Steve Madden boots and Zara denim jacket to keep the look more casual. Since I’m going through a grunge phase at the moment, I thought a choker and this dark brown shade from Kylie Cosmetics on the lips would go perfectly with the entire look.

Roshini- The only plus side to monsoons for me is that like Tanvi, I can start wearing most of my jackets and boots. I have paired a Forever 21 denim jacket with a peach midi dress so that my outfit is neither too dark nor too bright. I've chosen waterproof boots for my feet that completes my look and keeps it simple and comfortable. I am wearing a dark Chanel lipstick with tinted gloss for a change instead of my usual matter colours. 

Tanmayi- Anybody who knows me, knows that i wear by maxi dress at all times! The monsoons with its wet, slushy weather isn't exactly suitable for full length dresses but I have tied up my dress from Dorothy Perkins at the side slit so I can still wear it without worrying about it sweeping the ground. To me, gloomy weather is all the more reason to lighten up my mood by wearing brighter outfits. I have opted for a floral maxi dress with chunky earrings and a bright lip colour. My boots from H&M keep my feet warm and safe from the water. Minimal make-up and fuss free hair is perfect for the monsoons.
