A new OOTD today..I wore this pretty red lips embroidered dress last Saturday when we went to Prime Time Sports Bar and also it was my niece’s 2nd birthday 🙂
I love how simple and effortless this dress is,yet glams you up instantly. I paired it with a simple gold choker necklace and a simple Daniel Wellington watch and a set of rings.
Completed the look with this black fringes bag and studded black ballerinas.
Since it was quite dark and the lighting was not that good, some pics look a bit harsh. Also, I am wearing the L’Oreal Paris 24H Powder Foundation and hence the whitish cast, see I told you.

Need a packing list for your get away this summer?
A perfect summer vacation has to have a nice, comfy, trendy shorts. Denims, of course, I live in them! Shirt dresses are quite IN these days and super comfortable too, for your travels or just a day of backpacking. That remind me of backpacks, again perfect to carry along, and you can just wear them behind and forget about it and be comfortable.
Here are a few compilations that will help you in remembering #WhatToPack 😀
I lovee shoes and if you are a shoe addict like me, of course you cannot forget them. Sandals, sneakers are your best bet for summers, also very comfortable for walking when you are on a vacation.
#Shopbop Shoes Day: Every Tuesday of the week as they celebrate the most versatile footwear season of the year. Here are some styles worthy of mention for your summer outdoor adventures!
Then there are some skincare essentials like a sunscreen,moisturiser,etc. A hat, sunglasses and a sipper (water is the most important) are also very much a necessity.
Let me know your #WhatToPack essentials in the comments below 🙂
Today I am showing you 3 casual outfits which I have been wearing of late.
Outfit 1:
A blue ‘Cinderella’ t-shirt dress from Disney and Kook N Keech collaboration for Myntra. I paired it with my tan brogues and Michael Kors Selma. I added a glitter gold belt to define the waist and give a shape to the dress. And my Daniel Wellington watch and a gold and black layered statement neck piece.
Dress: Myntra
Belt, Shoes: Foot-in
Watch: Daniel Wellington
Necklace: Shop Miss A
Outfit 2:
Second outfit is more of an androgynous look. I have paired a white tee with my blue denims, and layered with a men’s blue tartan cotton shirt from Zobello. Zobello is an online men’s clothing wear site, where you get everything from formal to casual to party wear shirts, trousers, sports wear, shorts, sweat shirts, etc. I love adding a men’s shirt as a layer to my outfit and there are so many other ways to wear your man’s shirt 😉 I love how comfortable and soft the material is and it is quite thick and pure cotton, hence very comfortable and perfect for summer layering.
The only feminine element I have added in this outfit to break the androgyny is this silver semi- precious stones cuff from Silvette. How super pretty is this cuff! I absolutely love it. The shoes and watch are the same as in the above look. I wore this outfit to the Levis’ event a few days ago.
Tee: Marks & Spencer
Denims: Forever 21
Shirt: Zobello

Outfit 3:
Third outfit is this simple, teal colored dress from Dressberry which I bought during the Myntra sale for some 275 rupees 😀 I paired it with a simple,thin black belt and this gorgeous statement necklace from Rosabelle Treasures. I completed the look with my Daniel Wellington watch, Michael Kors selma mini and metallic gold Vans. I love the combination of teal and gold, the shoes perfectly complimented the dress.
I wore this outfit to the Maybelline Rebel Bouquet Collection launch a few weeks ago.
Dress: Dressberry (Myntra)

If you read the previous post, you know we had been for lunch yesterday at The Trident, BKC. We also ended up shooting the outfit since I loved the decor.
I wore this pretty orange lace dress which can also be worn off shoulder, but since I had layered it with a blazer, I wore it normally. I absolutely love the fit and how it hugs the waist and gives a shape and is not like a shift dress. Plus orange and yellow are my favourite colors <3
I wore this very light, floral blazer on top. It is so light, that I could comfortably wear it in these summers too. (obviously with the AC indoors) Since the dress and blazer are all bright and colorful, I skipped the accessories and kept the bag and shoes neutral.
So, I paired the outfit with my favourite Michael Kors sling (which you guys are bored of seeing now, but I am too lazy to change bags :D) and another current favourite, these tan brogues. Also added, a classic Daniel Wellington watch.

P.S: The marks you see on my leg are my surgery stitch marks. I tried Bio Oil, did not help much. Currently using Mederma, if you know of anything that works, please do let me know 🙂
I did a small haul from Bornprettystore.com, which is a site that stocks everything from nail art, accessories,makeup brushes, beauty stuff, toys,watches and even clothing. If you love nail art, you will find innumerable options and you will be stuck on the site whole day 😀
Here is what all I got:
A cute,tiny, PINK eyelash curler. I wanted to try this kind of eyelash curler since a long time and also it is quite handy to be carried in your bag.
A polka dots, pink retractable lip brush. Again it is very tiny and goes in my handbag 🙂
A beauty blender dupe (wanted to try it, lets see how it works)
A multi layered, braided bracelet. It has anchor, infinity, etc., very cute.
My favourite is this pearl tasseled hand harness. This is so pretty, I am going to wear this a lot!
And last but not the least, a Pedi Spin. Its a handy tool for at- home pedicures, comes with a polishing and a finishing plate, and 12 extra polishing pads. I know Scholl has Express Smooth Velvet Pedi but this is like 1/6th the price :p
You can get 10% off on bornprettystore.com using my coupon code ‘KKAG10’ 🙂
They have beautiful accessories, inexpensive makeup brushes and a lot of tools for nail art. The best thing is they have Free Shipping worldwide! And your order gets dispatched in a day, though it is usually sent through post, so takes about 3-4 weeks to arrive.

As you all know, I have been talking a lot about the Reliance Trends Spring Summer Collection 2015. We were invited at the Bandra Reliance Trends store to check out and review the collection and pick our favourites and style them 🙂
New Reliance Trends Collection included the brands Rio,Fig, Intribe, Fusion, DNMX and Team Spirit.
Rio has bright coloured tops and tees. Fig has nice summery tunics, sheer crop tops, harem pants,etc. DNMX was all about denim, from printed (polka dots too :p) denims to all types of pants, shorts and also nice denim shirts which mostly all of us picked 😀 It is perfect for layering in summers since quite thin and breathable. Intribe had floral numbered tops, lots of sheer and sequin and even faux leather. Fusion obviously had the Indo-western look and feel with bright skirts, shirts, kurtis,etc. And lastly, Team Spirit was all about casuals and sporty. Numbered tees, hoodie vests,stripes, etc.
For creating this look, I went went a vertical striped numbered tee from Team Spirit. I love how the number has an ombre effect <3 And paired it with blue skinny denims from DNMX, the ombre blue number on the tee matches and balances the outfit.
I paired it with my bright black and pink floral statement necklace, a classic watch, a pretty stone silver ring and studded black pumps. The reflecting sunnies steal the show though 😀 Absolutely loved the mirror reflecting round sunglasses.
The best part is all the brands are quite affordable and do not burn a hole in your pocket. The stuff is perfect for everyday wear and there is something for everyone,from sporty Team Spirit to trendy Fig and DNMX to Indo- western Fusion. You guys also have a chance to win this look and/or the looks created by other bloggers starting from 13th and going till 17th May on the Reliance Trends facebook and twitter. Go follow now 😉

This is what I wore at the L’Oreal Paris You Cannes event. I absolutely love midi skirts and this printed pleated midi looks oh so pretty! So many asked me where is it from, and I anyways wanted to do an outfit post with it, so here it is.
This skirt is from CNDirect.com. I love their collection, they have amazing stuff at such reasonable prices. From clothing,bags, accessories, sunglasses to even cool gadgets and electronics, they stock everything. I was wary of the quality, but then they are so good quality wise too! I still have more things from CNDirect for future OOTD’s, wait for them 😉
I love the house and lake print on this skirt, there were 4 print options. (Click on the link given in outfit breakdown below to check the options) I was a bit confused as to which print I should go for, since all looked good.
I paired it with a white shirt, I was supposed to pair it with some other white shirt but I forgot that at my mom’s place, hence went for a backup :p
I am not allowed to wear high heels currently for 2-3 months, so I got these smallest nude heels from Foot-in for few of my dresses. If you follow me on twitter, you must have seen the Foot-in collection I shared there. I have another awesome pair which you guys will see soon! Foot-in is so affordable and I loved the variety they had, plus the quality is good too. These are so light on the feet. I was not sure if I would be able to wear heels currently, but this was pretty comfortable. Foot-in also has bags,belts and sunglasses. I got a super pretty, gold glitter belt too 😀
Accessory wise, I only wore this huge,super pretty statement necklace from Rosabelle Treasures. I soo love each and every neck piece they stock. Do check them out on facebook HERE or on Instagram HERE, you will surely be tempted to buy 2-3 😉 And you do not need any other accessory when you wear Rosabelle Treasures neckpieces, they are more than enough and will take your outfit from simple to glam, in an instant.

I loved the simple pearl pieces and the beautiful temple jewellery she stocks. I love temple jewellery and I feel it looks amazing with a simple South Indian saree. Also the fact that her prices are pretty reasonable compared to other online facebook stores.
I bought these pretty pieces recently from her store recently. They were neatly packed in separate plastic covers with bubble wrap and all together in a bigger plastic box.
This beautiful red and black beaded tribal necklace is my most favourite! How pretty and statementy is it! Can’t wait to pair it with my simple tees and shirts as this is more than enough and a statement in itself.
A white and gold layered pearl statement bracelet, a pair of gold and white square earrings. Isn’t that design quite cute.
OOTD: Zovi Mustard Yellow Top with Gold Accessories
Hey guys,
A new OOTD, this time a pretty mustard yellow top from Zovi.com. I have shopped quite a lot of times from Zovi till date. I also got a very pretty polka dots dress and these blue and black ballerinas with this top for #BlogForZovi
I tried the shoes and they were a size smaller,so I had to exchange them. Though the process was smooth, it did take some time. Also I did not bother to try the dress before coz it was the usual size I order from Zovi and this top is of the same size. Unfortunately the dress is smaller and that is the first time I have faced it with Zovi.
Usually they have a measurement recommendation guide where you enter your stats and they recommend you the perfect size. Even that recommendation suggested the usual size. I really wanted to wear the dress and show it you guys in this post 🙁 I have initiated an exchange process again, I hope it happens quicker this time. I will surely do another OOTD with that dress 😀
Coming to this package, the process of ordering on Zovi is quite smooth since it is very user friendly and the navigation is also easy. They usually give you an expected delivery date but I have always received my parcels before the expected date.
I love this mustard yellow top with ruffled sleeve pattern and a gold button on the sides. It is simple and chic and can be accessorized well like I have here. Also these blue and black ballerinas with a buckle on top are comfortable and pretty, would go with a lot of casuals.
I paired the look with my gold accessories from Regium and my new Michael Kors Selma sling.
