I have been shooting and creating a lot of content and looks both for my blog and Instagram (@bhumika_t)
One of the outfits is this perfect red dress, I came across this on Everstylish.com
As soon as I saw this outfit, I knew I wanted to try it. It’s the perfect evening glam dress which is formal, not revealing, looks elegant and is not black. Black is the most common colour for formal evening dresses, followed by wine/burgundy and similar dark colours. This even, one though, bright red is perfect for a formal evening.
It has retro glam vibes and the off shoulder cross over silhouette, pencil fit with little flare at the bottom looks beautiful. I kept the jewellery minimum with just one gold choker and a tan leather watch.
For hair, I did overnight no heat curls for which I have recorded a video and will be uploading soon 🙂 I absolutely loved the results.
Makeup wise, a soft pink shadow on eyes and bright red lips complimented the outfit and hair well.
I didn’t want black shoes, could have gone for nude heels but I felt this rose gold pair looked perfect.
I hope you like this outfit, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below 🙂

Another OOTD for you. I love midi dresses, especially these flared kinds. They look very flattering on all body types.
White and Red is one of my favourite combination, this dress had red abstract print on white base. It’s from Dainty Jewells. They have a beautiful collection of dresses, available in a large variety of sizes. Also a lot of bridesmaid dresses.
I paired it with my gold watch, tan sling and nude strappy heels. Since the dress was bright enough, I kept the accessories neutral as otherwise the colors would clash and be too loud.

Heels: Zara

Earrings: House of Tuhina
So as I have become more active on Snapchat and Instagram, I am doing less of outfit posts here and less of vlogs too, coz I show the outfit and the event videos on Instagram and Snapchat respectively.
But I decided to post this one on the blog. I got this abstract print overlapping shift dress from StalkBuyLove recently, I showed it my latest YouTube Haul Video HERE
I wore this outfit for the Splash Spring/Summer Collection Preview recently. I paired this dress with my gold block heels and blue Michael Kors sling and gold Michael Kors watch. Also added a stretchable gold belt to give the waist some definition.
I love the overlap effect and the abstract print. Also the fact that it’s half sleeves, this dress is something which can be worn for multiple occasions like a formal affair or a casual day out.

Here is the youtube video, a small lookbook kind 🙂

Outfit 2:
I love midi skirts and this rose print one is my most favourite. I paired this skirt with a simple white shirt and folded the sleeves.

I wore this to the Avene #SensitiveSkin event as the theme was white and pink.

Outfit 3:
This is the same outfit I wore for my birthday last year. (See HERE) It’s an off shoulder black half printed dress. I love how this dress is so comfortable and has two pockets 😀 I wore this to the Amante store launch. My MK watch and orange bucket bag to complete the look.
Dress, Bag: StalkBuyLove

Outfit 4:
This is an old bird print peter pan collar dress, I spoke about this dress in my 2015 rewind post. It comes with a white belt and is a perfect day time/brunch/shopping with friends kind of a dress. Again super comfortable and can be worn anywhere. The same rose gold MK watch and Accessorize sling 🙂 And my favourite tan brogues finish the look. I wore this for the TBZ video shoot, see HERE

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.
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 🙂

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.

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.

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.
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: Two Diverse Outfits (Maxi Dress & Monochrome)
Hi guys,
If you follow me on my social media, you must be knowing I had attended the Reliance Trends’ Tarun Tahiliani show at Lakme Fashion Week and I had to pick two outfits from the new Reliance Trends collection and wear one of it for the show.
I tried a number of outfits as you can see here..
Finally I went with these two.
First is this super pretty royal blue maxi dress which is from their in house brand ‘Fusion’ and it has an Indo-western feel to it obviously as the name goes.
I love the print on top, the fit, the flowy fabric, the color, everything about this dress and also it is super comfortable! I had been living in this maxi dress for entire day for 2-3 days in a row since it felt so comfortable.
If it would have been available in more colors, I would have bought all of them 😀 And guess the price guys!! It retails only for Rs.799/-!! Beat that. Definitely recommend checking out ‘Fusion’ at your nearest Reliance Trends store and buy this if you spot it! There were some other shirt dresses and halter dresses too which were quite pretty.
I wanted my 2nd outfit to be completely different from the first. Since the first was bright and colorful and Indo-western, I went with a monochromatic black and white semi-formal look in the 2nd.
I chose this textured white boxy top with an embellished neckline with a simple black pencil skirt. I love the waffle print texture and the neckline is super pretty. You don’t need any additional accessories with this top. This top was priced at Rs. 799/- too.
Other accessories seen in these looks are my infinity layered neckpiece and my hamsa hand harness. (Both seen HERE). I wore my silver Forever 21 loafers with these.
If you read the previous post, you know we went to Trident BKC yesterday for lunch as it was Mr. Husband’s birthday.
I wore this pretty pastel blue floral off shoulder dress. I loved the dress but it is actually a bit loose and the sleeves were dropping, so kind of uncomfortable. I will have to find a way to alter it or fix it somehow. I love the pastel blue color and the floral print though, off shoulder is very IN trend these days.
I paired it with my new silver Forever 21 loafers and kept it minimal and silver in terms of accessories too. I wore this layered silver infinity necklace and a silver hamsa hand harness, my first hamsa 🙂
