Come winters/fall and the fashion trends change completely. It is all about deep, rich and dark colors in fall/winters. Burgundy, wine, khakhi, black, moss green, grey are the colors IN this season.
And the overcoats, trench coats, blazers would all come out. One thing that is trending this season particularly is the sleeveless trench coat/lapel coat. Also they are perfect for my country which does not have harsh winters but just needs some light layering.
Accessories and shoes wise, it is all about the hats, bucket bags and backpacks, boots, chunky shoes, etc.
Fame had started with Lakme School of Style in October 2014, India’s first fashion video magazine. Lakmé School of Style is a first of its kind show that will not only bring the newest trends and happenings from the fashion world but in the process will also create new age fashionistas and idols. A fashion brigade led by Editor-in-Chief, Karan Johar himself will bring the fashion news, views and events from all over the world to the internet screen.
It has been quite a hit since the time it launched. And Karan Johar has himself selected a few bloggers to be a part of his Fashion Brigade. Nilu, Riaan, Sukhneet, Sahibba and Sanjana to name a few.
One of my favourite videos from Lakme School of Style is ‘How To Incorporate Last Year’s Summer Trends In Your 2015 Wardobe’ where Nilu Thapa talks about styling your old 2014 Spring-Summer collections and give them an all new fashionable look this year. You are simply gonna love her ideas!
1. Black and White/Monochrome
While last year she paired her white shirts with skinny denims folded at the bottom, this year she intends to wear them with pencil skirts and high slit skirts
2. Midi skirts
Last year, Nilu wore midi skirts extensively and with structured tops mostly. This time, she would be wearing midi skirts again but with shirts and spaghetti tops and toning down the accessories.
3. Jumpsuits
Last year she wore jumpsuits with chunky neckpieces and this year she pairs them with blazers and kimonos
4. Peasant tops
Nilu wore peasant tops with faded denims and ankle boots last year, this time she will pair them with denim shorts
5. Chiffon Dress
Chiffon dresses are always in style and last year they were the trend was pairing them with chunky neckpieces and satchels. This year around, being low on accessories and just a mini cross body sling is perfect.
I think its a perfect list, and these things are definitely still in trend, so just mix and match and you have your spring summer 2015 wardrobe ready!
Every month #LakmeSchoolOfStyle comes up with a theme and uploads videos related to it..this month the theme is ‘Wedding’, so yes you would see Sabyasachi and all the jazz 🙂 Stay glued and subscribe to LakmeSchoolOfStyle HERE to stay updated with their videos.

Come summers, sunglasses become an essential. It is very important to protect our eyes and the skin around from the sun’s harsh rays. The skin around the eyes is the thinnest in our body, so proper protection and care for the eyes are a MUST. While these days, there are so many different styles and designs doing the rounds, you can choose what suits your fancy.
Some trends still continue from 2014, while some styles are new additions in 2015. Lets see some sunglasses trends in 2015.
2014 was all high on cat eye, animal print and geeky glasses. Some trends we see right now and would see more of, in 2015 are:
1. Mirror glasses
Be it round frames,aviators or wayfarers, its all about mirror glasses and high reflecting mirror in blue,green,gray that is 😀 Its all about eye catching statement you see
2. Round frames
Yes, those Gandhi/John Lennon frames are all IN. From geeky to mirrored to the fancy designs, anything in round frames is trendy. and round + mirror is the bomb!
3. Soft Cat Eye
Cat eye glasses are still trendy this season but not the elongated cat eye as before, a soft,slight cat eye.
4. Elegant Details
Gold mesh detailing,swarovski, gold studs, etc,.are all the elegant details added by the designers to vary the look of the glasses.
5. Retro
Thicker rims and metal frames give the glasses a retro look which is also quite trendy nowadays.

The latest trend just IN is wooden and denim frames..I think they look pretty cool. From light to dark and round to square, all kinds of wooden frames. And so in denim too. Check out this round denim frames, how amazing do they look!

Fall Fashion-What’s In and Out in Fall 2013 Guest Post As cooler weather sets in, it’s time to pare down your wardrobe, bringing out the sweaters, boots and more modest clothing suitable for fall. At first it can be hard to stash those sandals and tank tops, but it doesn’t take long to get into the spirit of a nice soft sweater or a pair of killer boots. This fall, look to the hot trends to keep you cozy and covered.
Denim Although it feels wrong at first to pull on a pair of jeans, covering those legs you’ve been tanning and toning all summer long, a new pair of denim can soften the blow. This fall, skinny jeans are back and better than ever. Don a hip-length tunic for a casual look that keeps you comfortable and stylish at the same time. If skinny jeans aren’t for you, try the classic boyfriend cut jean which let your curves do the work.
Color This fall is all about rich, earthy colors. Women will bring dazzle to modest clothing with pops of color. Shades of deep brown and gray were all over the runways this fall. When you feel like brightening your look, opt for deep purple, turquoise or fuchsia. Emerald green has been reported as the hottest color this fall. Pair colors depending on the look you wish to achieve, marrying brighter colors for funkier looks.
Outerwear A beautiful coat or jacket makes braving cooler temperatures a lot easier. You cannot go wrong with fur this season. Dress up a casual look or keep a dressier ensemble classy with a variety of fur coats to choose. You’ll see all sorts of hats this season, from knits to floppy fedoras. Choose the one that speaks to you.
Patterns and Prints Pack away your stripes and floral prints of summer and replace them with fall prints. Classic plaids and hounds tooth patterns are big this season. A surprising new take on leopard print brings color to the forefront. Instead of the classic black and orange leopard print, you’ll see newer versions in pink, purple and blue. Remember to use the print sparingly, choosing one or two accent pieces instead of an entire cat-inspired outfit.
It’s time to lovingly put away those summer clothes and replace them with fall’s modest clothing. Take a trip down memory lane and close the lid until next spring. Have fun this season with these exciting new fall trends.

The models at LFW WF 2013 looked to accentuate the rich and bronze color of Indian Skin. The use of bronze and peach blushes allowed the models to have an earthy glow. To avail this healthy glow, Lakmé Salon offers a Chocolicious Masque and a Perfect Radiance Facial to rejuvenate your skin and prep it for a dry winter. The youth Infinity facial further accentuates the sculpted look.
A Dab of Glitter This season, the nails trended with a dab of glitter on them. The use of matt colors and dull shades were brought to life with a variety of glitter shades either sprinkled on randomly or carefully painted on the top or bottom half of the nail. This is a definite keeper for the coming festive season. When you head down to the Lakmé Salon avail their Nail Art service and give your nails the look of the season.
Colors: Black & Gold
With summer at a close, Winter Festive reflected the regal and sophistication of black and Gold. Perfect for grand occasions, festivals, weddings and celebrations, one can never go wrong with these colors. Designers like Nikhil Thampi, Vikram Phadnis, Rocky S and even Sabyasachi Mukherjee displayed an array of ways black and Gold can complement you this season.
Sleek, Tamed & Pull back In winter, one’s hair can get dry and extremely frizzy with the lack of natural oils to keep it nourished. LFW WF trended sleek, and pulled back hairdos that held the sophistication and health of the hair. Lakmé Salon offers Miracle oil or Morrocon Oil treatments which removes the frizz and dryness and allows the hair to shine through.
Day & Night Eyes An Indian woman’s eye makeup is imperative to her overall look and this LFW WF season is all about giving your eyes the right look at the right time. Accentuating one’s eyes at night with smoky and dark eye shadows while keeping a neutral or natural look during the day can really add to the diversity of eye makeup you choose to explore.
Day & Night Lips
Similar to the trends on eyes, the Lips are inversely complimenting to the eye makeup. This season the use of bright matt red lipsticks or neutral matt lipstick tones are in check. By day, give your lips a luscious red matt finish to compliment the neutral eye makeup. By night, neutralize the lips to give focus to the eyes. After all opposites attract!
Streak a Pose
You would expect the talk of color to be associated with the wardrobe; this Lakmé Fashion Week however took color all over. With Colorful Hair extensions clipped to sleak, chic and pulled back hairdos, braids and ponytails, it gave the models a funky yet sophisticated look. To avail this look Lakmé Salon offers hair extensions in a variety of new shades
