I am so loving maxi dresses these days. Actually I am searching for a nice gown fro my DJ, you know those tulle or lace voluminous ones that look so pwetty!
And the basic maxi dresses are also getting all my love and attention. They are so easy to wear anyday anytime.
Here are some of my favourites: (Click on the link to see the product details)
Another perfect dress for any evening occasion. Its not too revealing, has mesh net on sleeves and is quite basic and simple. You can accessorize it well.
These maxi dresses are available on Rosewe.com, I am loving their collection. Also they have Free Shipping worldwide, all the more better!
Which did you like the most? Any of your favourite site for maxi dresses ? Do let me know.
I bought a new pair of shoes and a clutch sometime back,those of you who follow me on Instagram must have already seen these.
I got these pretty soft pink rhinestone detailing pumps. How gorgeous do they look?! Right out of a princess fairytale, I can think of Cinderella 😀
I think I might wear them with my evening gown for my DJ (which I am still searching for :/)
Though the heel height is high, the front platform is high too and that makes them quite comfortable unlike those steep heels with no front platform.
Pink and silver combo is one of my favourites.
I also got this champagne clutch which has both gold and silver detailing too. I love the thread beading and sequin work. This would work with many of my Indian outfits too.
Both are from Dressv. I also have another pair of n*de and blue peep toe pumps and a studded black clutch from Dressv. They have a lot of bridal stuff but mostly Christian ones,beautiful gowns too! But I like the shoes and clutches though, some are super pretty!
Do you like it ? What have you shopped for recently ?
I am back with an OOTD. P.S: This is my 1600th post. Yay 😀 Trivia: Hopefully 2015th post would be in 2015 :p #nookbye
This is what I wore to the River Island for Jabong fittings at Lakme Fashion Week this time. Pics clicked by the lovely Shanaya from Little Miss Sinner.
I love floral dresses. I gave it a semi formal touch by adding the black blazer and black bag. Blue suede ankle strap heels complimented the blue flowers on the dress. The statement belt cinched the waist and gave a nice fit. Added a bronze statement necklace and a gold cuff, and my favourite Daniel Wellington watch to complete the look.

So I know Mumbai hardly sees any winters as such, but we can obviously wear those deep,rich hues like black,wine,oxblood,forest green, etc
And also light blazers for layering (I feel cold at times in Mumbai winters too, yes I am one of those species :D) Also sharing few bags and shoes of course :p
Yes, this is exactly similar to my favourite black one which you often see in my OOTD’s. Its available in black,white and orange. This orange is so super striking!
Back with an OOTD. I love pleated maxi skirts. Today I am showing you guys two ways to wear a maxi skirt.
Wear it as a skirt (duh!)
OR
Wear it as a dress!
Yes, you can wear it as a strapless dress, and maybe add a nice belt like I have done here and a vest, coat,blazer,etc. Looks chic. Plus one outfit,two uses 😉
I have paired it with a plain white linen shirt and belted it to bring it together, and a blue statement necklace.
And in the second way, I wore it as a dress with a Moschino dupe statement belt and a black half fur black vest. A gold statement necklace and a spiked bracelet.
Wore this n*de and blue colorblock peep toe heels.
Outfit 1:
Skirt: Femella
Shirt: Marks & Spencer
Belt: Style Fiesta
So I had to stock on some basic essentials for my bridal trousseau. I did most of my lingerie shopping during the Marks & Spencer sale. But still, I can’t resist shopping online whenever I see something good.

I actually was searching for a backless bra or one with transparent straps at the back for deep back cholis and dresses. Not really silicone cups, but something which sticks to the side and something which can be used for a longer time, not the disposable ones, coz they turn out too expensive.
If you come across one with transparent straps at the back, then do let me know.
I did see extenders on PrettySecrets but then they were not taking the straps too down, hardly 1-2 inches, which did not fulfill the purpose.
I have usually always worn seamless bras, coz I never liked those seams showing up. So this one was perfect, as it was seamless, is convertible, very soft light padding (hate thick ones), underwired yet comfortable. Loved the design and print too.
I liked their overall collection. They also have Buy 2 Get 1 Free and many other offers (See HERE) and some hot designs. I received my stuff within 4-5 days of ordering and it was pretty smooth to order. Also liked the pink box packaging. Everything was nicely packed with 2-3 layers, etc.
I only wish they did not have the extra charges for COD. Somehow I don’t like it, when sites charge extra for COD. Customers should be given that option for free. And also if they stocked on more backless and convertible options and different kinds of extenders which we get outside India.
Overall I am happy with the site and experience and the stuff I ordered. I am definitely shopping again. Do check out PrettySecrets.com
Have you shopped from PrettySecrets.com before ? Where do you shop your lingerie from ? Any site for backless bras ?
P.S: I got a voucher to shop for, but that has not affected my opinion.

OOTD: Polka Dots Bandage Crop Top, Daniel Wellington Watch
Hey guys,
Back with a crop top OOTD. Remember my leopard print one HERE. This is my second crop top.(One more pineapple print is on its way :p) You know how much I love polka dots and stripes!
I had also shared some tips on how to wear a crop top in my previous post. Crop tops are skirt’s best friend, be it midi or normal pencil.
I paired this white bandage polka dots crop top (bandage gives a nice peek a boo effect and hardly shows skin) with a basic black pencil skirt.
A candy orange sling was the perfect bright accessory to break the monochrome. My Classic St. Andrews Lady Daniel Wellington stacked up with a spiked and pearl bracelet completed the look.
My new shoes! How I love them <3 Black suede block heels with metallic gold ankle strap went well with the outfit. I wore them to Lakme Fashion Week and everyone complimented the shoes and asked where are they from :p They are so versatile and match with everything. Plus super comfy.
Top: Faballey (Available in black too)
Skirt: Faballey
Sling: Faballey
Shoes: Blackfive
Watch: Daniel Wellington (You can win one HERE)
OOTD: Airport Travel/Friday Dressing with One Pants
Hey guys,
I am back with an OOTD after a long long time. Remember my Goa trip with Blogadda last month ? (See HERE) I am going to Goa again tom early early morning with a bunch of friends. Yay! Can’t wait 😀 Probably my last trip as ‘single’ with friends, so kind of bachelorette too. (Though we have guys along :/ But its ok as long as we will be having fun!!) (P.S: Follow me on Instagram HERE to see the pics from Goa ;))
So, this is what I wore to the airport last time. A basic brown floral pants which are thick and warm. I paired them with a basic white Tommy Hilfiger tee, blue loafers, pearl studs and a Daniel Wellington watch. I also had my reliable black Marks & Spencer sweatshirt along to keep me warm during the flight. Keeping it simple is the best when you are travelling.
Some tips to keep in mind for airport travel dressing:
Wear longer tees/tunics. You may have your hand luggage or need to bend, etc. Keep it long and comfortable.
Wear closed loafers/ballets/brogues/shoes/boots. My feet get terribly cold and if it is the same with you, better keep them covered.
Always have a scarf/jacket/sweatshirt out and handy.
Wear minimal accessories. Airport is not the place to show off your statement pieces.
Wear comfortable denims/tracks/pants. No skinny or tight bottoms.
Carry a good big tote and don’t forget the basic stuff like lip balm, hand cream, moisturizer, face mist, sanitizer, etc. in the bag.
I guess ya, you are good to go, wearing some basic, comfortable outfit.
I converted the same pants into a more semi formal Friday wear, by replacing the casual white tee with a linen white shirt and tucking it in and my favourite black bag.
Some tips to keep in mind for Friday dressing at work:
So casuals on Friday does not mean shorts, bodycon dresses, etc. coz its still a work place after all. Stick to denims in basic blue and black.
White/Black shirts work well for semi formal Fridays
Again not too many statement pieces or accessories. You are not there to seek attention and neither would it be comfortable to work with any heavy accessories.
Blazers look super chic for semi formal wear
Monochromes/Neutrals/Blues look good.
Sheath/Wrap dress in neutral colors also looks perfect for Fridays. Sometimes on all days coz its formal too, depending on the cuts/design/color and the work place environment.
Outfit 1:
Tee: Tommy Hilfiger
Pants: American Swan
Watch: Daniel Wellington (You can win one HERE. I have a giveaway going on where you can win one of the Daniel Wellington watches of your choice!)
Earrings: Aldo
Outfit 2:
Shirt: Marks & Spencer
Bag: Romwe
That’s it guys! I hope you liked the tips. Do let me know what do you wear on Fridays at work in the comments below.
International Giveaway: Win a Daniel Wellington Watch
Yes, you heard it right. A Daniel Wellington watch of your choice! Is’nt that amazing ?!
About Daniel Wellington: The story behind Daniel Wellington begins with a trip half way around the globe where Filip Tysander, the founder of Daniel Wellington, met an intriguing gentleman from the British Isles. The man had the inspiring ability to be gentlemanly but still relaxed and unpretentious. He had an impeccable style, and loved to wear his watches on old weathered NATO straps. His name? Well, Daniel Wellington, of course..
The “preppy” trend is bigger than ever before. And while there are many big players in the fashion industry that cater to preppy needs, such as Ralph Lauren, Gant and Brooks Brothers, we felt that there was an empty space in the watch market. There was something missing.
We believe that Daniel Wellington fills that gap. Our vision is that when someone thinks of a preppy dressed person, he or she is wearing a Daniel Wellington watch.
Slowly but surely, a beautiful watch emerged. It was thin, refined and perfectly round. It was minimalistic and didn’t have too many details. We believe that the traditional, yet crisp design blends together perfectly with the colourful NATO strap and will appeal to almost everyone with a sense for classic and timeless design.
The straps themselves are an important part of the watch. NATO straps originate from the British navy, where divers would use the strong nylon straps over their wet suits. Even though they were originally made to avoid rust, we love the look and versatility of them. That’s why we wanted to create a line of different straps with different colours and patterns – but all with a strong bond to the British Isles.
Sean Connery, another big fan of the NATO strap, wore one in the James Bond movie “Goldfinger”. Need we say more?
The Daniel Wellington watch is suitable for every occasion. Regardless if you’re attending a black tie event, playing a game of tennis or enjoying a sunny day at the beach club – the Daniel Wellington is a beautiful companion.
Not only that, but with interchangeable straps you can have a different watch for every day of the week.
Daniel Wellington Watches range from $135 to $229. They have some super classy designs. I personally love each of them. And once you own a watch, you only need to buy straps then, since they are all interchangeable. They have dials in gold, silver, rose gold. My personal favourite is rose gold <3
I owned a Classic Southampton Lady, which I have shown in many of my outfit posts here. And the recent additions are Classic St.Andrews Lady and an strap for my Classic Southampton Lady dial.
This is the first giveaway I am conducting that is open for men as well. Its open both for men and women and worldwide. So, basically anyone can participate. Its open for all.
