OOTD: Roses in Galaxy

OOTD: Roses in Galaxy

Hi guys,

I am back with an OOTD, this time it’s this pretty black dress with pinkish red roses on the bottom half. It’s an old dress I had got from Done By None but never untill yet.

OOTD: Roses in Galaxy, Indian Fashion Blog, Outfit of the Day, Fashion Blogger

I created this case for Asus #Zenfone on their #Zenlooks app here http://bit.ly/1Q1ohRK, it is a galaxy inspired look with deep galaxy colors and some stars in between.

I wanted to create an outfit similar to the case inspiration and I found this dress in my wardrobe which perfectly matched the black and deep pinks and reds in the galaxy.

I kept it very basic and simple and went with a basic rose gold watch and a tan sling. I completed the look with my favourite black and gold block sandals.

I also added this floral pink tiara coz it went beautifully with the dress 🙂

OOTD/Lookbook: 3 Casual Outfits

OOTD/Lookbook: 3 Casual Outfits

Hi guys,

I had not done the 3 outfits series since a long time, see previous ones HERE, HERE and HERE

These are the outfits I wore recently for the events I attended, I have also done a lookbook video 🙂

Outfit 1:

I have seen this long maxi slit tops a lot in the past few months, I never found them in Forever 21 and there was on StalkBuyLove which was almost OOS every time. Finally I found this blue and purple ombre slit top and it is just perfect, except for the length for me if I wear it with flats. I absolutely love the fit, comfort, color, fabric, everything about this top and if you are looking for a long maxi slit top, Stalkbuylove has quite a few options now.

I paired it with this silver, chunky diamante neck piece from Happiness Boutique, it somehow just didn’t sit right on me, no idea why :/ But I love it and it looks amazing on such plain tops/tees. Happiness Boutique also offers ‘Free Shipping’ and have a ‘Customer Reward Program’

The nude sling bag with gold accents is staple throughout and the tan brogues.

Top: StalkBuyLove
Denims: Levi’s
Necklace: Happiness Boutique
Sling: Accessorize
Shoes: Footin
Watch: Daniel Wellington (I have a 15% off discount code till 15th Dec, use ‘BHUMIKA’ at checkout)

Outfit 2:

A shirt dress again, this time it’s beige, white and black color blocked shirt dress. What I like about this dress is that it can even be worn as a cape. The belt defines the waist and I paired it with the same bag and shoes, but with my Michael Kors watch. I wore this for the Woods new Collection showcase.

Dress: StalkBuyLove
Bag: Accessorize
Shoes: Footin
Watch: Michael Kors

Outfit 3:

This is my favourite, bright yellow A-line dress. I absolutely love the lower print, it is quite bright and a statement in itself. I paired it with the same nude sling and my Daniel Wellington watch. I went for strappy block heels since it is more dressy. I was going to wear it for The Body Shop gift wrapping workshop event but I had to run errands that day and this dress is slightly tighter and was not the most comfortable, so I had to change. The only problem is the fit, even though I ordered it as per the size mentioned, it is tight for me. If you plan to buy this, go for a size up.

Dress: Shein

All About LIVA and #UnboxWithLiva/My OOTD

All About LIVA and #UnboxWithLiva/My OOTD

Hi guys,

On Saturday I attended an interesting event which was a wine and dine at Bungalow 9 in Bandra with team LIVA. There were a few bloggers, people from LIVA, RJ Archana and fashion choreographer Shy Kalra. The event was hosted by the lovely Freishia Bomanbehram. The USP of the event was everyone was supposed to come dressed up in LIVA and fortunately no two were in same outfits 😀 #UnboxWithLiva was all about not being boxed in synthetic fabrics and how in our forever busy lifestyle, we need clothing and fabric that does not box us but lets us free. A fabric which lets you be as comfortable throughout the day as you would be in your PJ’s and do whatever you wish to.

About LIVA:  Liva is a new-age naturally created fabric (in a pure or blended form) that transforms not just the garment but also the person wearing it. It is comfortable, soft, 100% natural, and eco-friendly. It is a part of ‘Aditya Birla’ group.

A fabric so fluid, so breathable, so comfortable… that it moves with you. It is designed keeping the new age woman in mind, this fabric defies all norms of conventional materials and aims to keep you going through the day without being weighed down.

LIVA is made from natural fibres which are produced from wood pulp, a natural renewable resource. The pulp used is from trees which are specifically grown for this purpose i.e. more new trees are planted than trees are cut. It gives the earth a much-needed green cover, saves 6-7 times more land in comparison to cotton, and saves 3-4 times more water than usual.

We got to know a lot about Liva and how it is not only comfortable but also eco – friendly, made from wood pulp, conserves water, everything about this fabric is only good!

Also there was a fun photo booth where we clicked lots of pictures with the Liva hashtag placards.

This was the first time I had tried a Liva garment and I was so surprised by how comfortable and light it was, the fabric is outstanding! You know how terrible hot and humid it is currently in Mumbai, it is around 34-35°C. I was wearing this dress since afternoon and in that 4-5 hours, not even once did I feel uncomfortable or rushing home and changing into my PJ’s. The fabric felt absolutely light and comfortable.

LIVA retails at AND, Global Desi, 109°F, Lifestyle, Pantaloons, Desi Belle at Central, Allen Solly and Van Heusen to name a few, but you have to specifically ask them for Liva fabric coz not all garments are Liva. Liva garments have a  separate pink ‘Liva’ tag on them.

I bought this pretty black and orange maxi dress from Global Desi, there were just 3 options at Global Desi, 2 maxi dresses and 1 midi dress. Of which I liked this one the most.

I also checked AND and 109°F, sadly AND did not have Liva garments in their new collection and the 109°F store I went to did not have good stock, so finally settled on Global Desi and I am glad coz I love this dress.

It fits beautifully and I love the black and sunset orange combination, the orange creates an ombre here and it also has pink, gold and black detailing on the ombre.

I paired it with my nude and gold clutch, a gold watch and black sandals. Since the outfit is quite bright and colorful, it created a statement in itself and no other accessories were required with it.

Dress: Global Desi (Liva)
Sling: Accessorize
Watch: Michael Kors

I hope you liked the outfit, also don’t forget to check out ‘Liva’ whenever you are shopping next, you will absolutely love the fabric.

OOTD: Black Striped Shirt Dress, Silver Loafers

OOTD: Black Striped Shirt Dress, Silver Loafers

Hi guys,

I wore this to the LYN #ShadesOfGrey launch on Tuesday at the Taj Mahal Tea House in Bandra. I love stripes and shirt dresses are my current favourite.

This was the perfect combination of both, while I loved the same dress in white which was anyday more smart but white being see through, I had to go for black. Only problem with shirt dresses I always face is if I go for a bigger size so that the buttons sit properly at the bust, it’s quite loose overall and if I go a size smaller and it’s perfect overall, it always stays a bit open at the bust :/ Sigh. I know a double tape can solve that problem but with this dress, it was just not staying stuck! Also it comes with the matching cloth belt which can help you give the straight fit dress some definition. Sadly the dress is a bit short when you sit, taller girls can wear it like a shirt, I will add leggings the next time.

Anyhoo, coming to this gorgeous silver loafers which I absolutely love but totally hate coz they gave me my life’s worst shoe bites ever! I was in terrible pain and couldn’t even walk, just when my leg got twisted and my right operated leg got a jerk 🙁 It was paining terribly for an hour and then while walking and climbing stairs. The pain is less in the mornings but by night it increases, I hope it heals soon!

So I paired this black shirt dress with silver loafers and this nude Accessorize clutch, it has metallic gold accents which I love! The theme was grey and I had worn a casual grey t-shirt dress before coz that was the only grey I had, but thankfully this dress arrived at the last moment coz I was at my mom’s place, this dress was a saviour!

OOTD: 3 Outfits I Wore Recently

OOTD: 3 Outfits I Wore Recently

Hi guys,

I am back with the 3 casual outfits’ post. See more HERE and HERE.

This time, I covered three outfits which I wore to events/meets recently.

Outfit 1:

It is the same outfit I wore HERE, this time with different accessories and bag. I love this floral midi skirt and since it has red roses, this red crop top matches perfectly with the skirt.

I paired it with a simple gold statement necklace and my Daniel Wellington watch. The highlight of this outfit is this beautiful Suede by Devina Juneja wristlet. The Shaded Ring Weave Wristlet is made with lightly hand-shaded leather in subtle gold and silver. I love the shaded ombre effect and the gold chain is perfect to replace your bracelet. It is easy to carry around and looks so pretty.

I wore this at the The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea Range launch recently. Did you guys see the vlog yet? Go HERE.

Skirt: HERE

Shoes: Shown HERE and HERE

On my lips: MAC Ruby Woo

Outfit 2:

The 2nd and 3rd are more casual ones, I am loving my new Levi’s 711 Skinny and living in them practically. I love how these are super comfortable. I always stayed away from skinny jeans coz I am neither thin nor tall for the skinny jeans to look good on me, Levi’s changed it all for me! I still can’t believe this skinny jeans not only flatters my body but make my legs look slender and nice. This is the first skinny jeans I absolutely love and they have other ranges like 311  Shaping Skinny and 312 Shaping Slim which look even more flattering and I can’t wait to try those.

I paired the skinny with my simple white tee and a black and beige Himachal print jacket. The jacket is currently on sale and only worth Rs.448/-! It is perfect for your dresses too and adds a light layer and keeps you warm. Since the entire look was more or less monochrome, I added a bright pop of color with my current favourite orange bucket bag. Bucket bags are back, ladies! I love how this bag is huge and fits my world in it (including my camera) and I carry it along comfortably. I love the orange and golden tassels hanged on the straps. The only thing is, I wish it came with a longer strap too, which usually comes with a bucket bag and makes it more convenient to carry. I finished the look with gold strappy flat sandals by Do Bhai from Myntra.

Denims: Levi’s
Watch: Daniel Wellington
Bag: StalkBuyLove
Tee: Marks & Spencer
Jacket: Oxolloxo
Sandals: Do Bhai (Myntra)

Outfit 3:

The third one is a simple, everyday outfit. A basic aztec print top with roll over sleeves, paired with Levi’s 711 Skinny again. I completed the look with a Daniel Wellington watch, black fringed bag and black studded ballerinas.

OOTD: Red Lips Embroidered Dress

OOTD: Red Lips Embroidered Dress

Hi guys,

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.

OOTD: Navy Blue Crop Top,Floral Palazzos

OOTD: Navy Blue Crop Top,Floral Palazzos

Hi guys,

I am back with an OOTD. I have seen palazzos doing rounds since a long time,I always felt they look good only on taller and leaner women like maxi dresses, and hence never tried them.

This time, I thought, why not give it a try and I saw this beautiful floral palazzos and fell in love with them. This navy blue lace crop top matched perfectly with the palazzos and also the fit was amazing,it hugged the body snuggly. The upper part was lace which played a peek-a-boo.

The palazzos are so,so comfortable. light and airy. I feel I can wear them everyday, even in these summers.

Since the top and bottoms were lace and floral, I did not accessorize much and just went with my classic watch and tan brogues. And my favourite companion MK Selma Mini.

I wore this at the Pantene event last week, and we also met the super hot Lisa Haydon.

OOTD: 3 Casual Outfits

OOTD: 3 Casual Outfits

Hi guys,

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
Cuff: Silvette
Watch: Daniel Wellington
Shoes: Foot-in (Also seen HERE)

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)
Necklace: Rosabelle Treasures (Also seen HERE)
Bag: Michael Kors Selma mini

This is kind of like a summer fashion lookbook too. If you like more of such casual outfits compilation, do let me know 🙂

OOTD: Orange Lace Dress, Floral Blazer

OOTD: Orange Lace Dress, Floral Blazer

Hi guys,

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.

Dress: StalkBuyLove
Blazer: StalkBuyLove

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 🙂

OOTD: Printed Pleated Midi Skirt

OOTD: Printed Pleated Midi Skirt

Hey guys,

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.
