OOTD: Monochrome with a Pop

OOTD: Monochrome with a Pop

Hi guys,

I recently shopped for a few things on Tata Cliq as it had this amazing sale going on. You won’t believe at what price I scored this dress (Guess and comment below 😀 Let’s see if you get this right). I ordered for two dresses and two tees but unfortunately they cancelled one dress and one tee as it was out of stock. I don’t understand how they list it for sale, charge money from customer and then cancel it saying it’s not in stock, then why list at the first place?! I was so pissed, because I really liked that other dress too.

But nonetheless when I tried this dress, I think I cooled down a bit because I loved it! I love stripes if you don’t know already 😀 And this outfit was simple black and white stripes off shoulder dress, I knew I wanted to add a pop of colour to this monochrome outfit. More so, it has vertical stripes which gives the illusion of an elongated body compared to horizontal stripes. I also like the shirring on the top which gives some shape and definition.

Now I could add a pop through accessories i.e. bags and shoes. I chose a colourful bag and bright pink sunnies this time, hence kept shoes black too. I added a colourful beaded choker as it was off shoulder and needed something around the neck.

I wore suede black tie back mules and this colourful pink Loeffler Randall bag with bright floral pom poms. I love how this bag instantly pops up any outfit, one of my favourite slings for that reason.

I bought this pink tinted rose gold sunglasses from Aldo quite some time back and never wore them somehow. I was finding accessories for this outfit and I found these and thought should try them. They looked perfect and I wonder why I never wore them. Actually I am not a sunglasses person because I feel most of them don’t look that good on me because I have a round face. Though I like aviators like this one, as aviators work best for my face and something angular too. I guess I will experiment more when it comes to sunglasses now, because I have so many and don’t end up wearing them.

We shot at Lady Baga in Lower Parel which is a goan themed restaurant and everything is so bright and colourful. I loved how the pictures turned out because of the whole colourful vibe and backgrounds.

OOTD: Airport Travel/Friday Dressing with One Pants

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:

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.

OOTD: Black Sequin Collar Shirt, Striped Puff Skirt

OOTD: Black Sequin Collar Shirt, Striped Puff Skirt

Hey guys,

I am back with an OOTD..I love skirts and I love stripes…and this black and white striped puff skirt is one of my favorites! How cute is it..the puff totally adds to its cuteness.

I paired it with a black sleeveless shirt with black sequin work on the collar..it extends till the back. So adds to the oomph of this shirt ! And this shirt goes with so many of my outfits..I think you can’t wrong with a basic black or white shirt..you would have tons of combinations to pair them with (exaggerated..but 5-6 minimum :D) Monochrome works for me always.

Its good for both formal and casual wear..you can transition from day to night with some changes with this kind of outfit.  (You can change the shoes to chic pumps) Whether a formal brunch or a fun meet with your girlfriends, this look totally works.

I kept accessories minimal with only pearl studs and my favorite Daniel Wellington watch. Looks classier and elegant this way. And since the collar is already sequin embellished, you do not need any statement necklace..the collar itself is a highlight. I went with these super sexy spiked T- strap white block heels. And a red lipstick to finish off.

I love you all <3

Btw, this top is from Possimus..and I hauled a bit from there..I loved some of their pieces..quiet eclectic and different.
