OOTD: Polka Dots Bandage Crop Top, Daniel Wellington Watch

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)

On Lips: Maybelline Bold Matte Lipstick MAT 2

I hope you liked the outfit. Do let me know in the comments below.

Who Wore What: IIFA Press Con, Promotions, IIFA Rocks- 2014

Who Wore What: IIFA Press Con, Promotions, IIFA Rocks- 2014

So, the IIFA Awards 2014 events have begun..and this time its in Tampa Bay, USA. As we see what the celebs have been wearing at the airport, at the IIFA press conference, promotions all over the US, IIFA Rocks (The Fashion show by Manish Malhotra for Mijwan Society) and of course the main Awards as and when they happen.

For now, I have picked up few hits and misses from the pre-events for you guys..do let me know your thoughts..

1. Kareena Kapoor at the Press Conference

She wore Anand Kabra separates..monochrome does work here..but one thing that glams up the outfit totally is the Maheep Kapoor Statement Necklace..goes with the embroidery on the sleeves..she finished it with YSL sandals..the look works for her.

2. Vidya Balan at IIFA promotions in NY

Vidya Balan wore a Satya Paul checkered sari with an orange long jacket blouse..and Manish Arora Earrings from Amrapali collection..ok, so there have been two views on this..some like it, some hate it..For me, this look totally works..the bright orange totally pops the checkered monochrome..and though she has been wearing sarees always, this one is an Indo-western kinda fusion..which looks amazing in my opinion.

3. Priyanka Chopra at IIFA Promotions

PC wore this Dior outfit, Isharya earrings and Valentino pumps..orange again here..I like the pop of orange..dress is ok..But I hate that brown/wine lips..can’t PC just lose them ??!

4. Sonakshi Sinha at IIFA Promotions

Sonakshi wore this black DKNY LBD with cut-out accents, nude peep toes and Bansri earrings..she wore her hair in soft waves..very normal and average..

5. Nimrat Kaur at IIFA Rocks

Nimrat wore a neon orange strapless midi dress with nude pumps..ok this is very Barbie dollish ! But, she did manage to pull it off decently well.

6. Vaani Kapoor at IIFA Rocks

Vaani wore multi print high neck Diva’ni dress, metallic pumps and Eina Ahluwalia earrings. What was she thinking ? Its like..wayy too much going on !

7. Priyanka Chopra at IIFA Rocks

PC wore a Prabal Gurung sheath dress and matching pumps..and Jaipur gems jewellry..and and and she wore a bright lip ! Finally ! And that suits her so well..why is she stuck to browns :/

8. Yami Gautam at IIFA Rocks

Yami wore a Clover Canyon flared dress and Joe’s nude pumps with a see-through Kotur clutch..I loved the hair too..I think she looks cute..

9. Bipasha Basu at IIFA Rocks

Bips chose this Gaurav Gupta plunging neckline metallic gown and Farah Khan Ali earrings..and sported a faux bob..Though its way too metallic and I am not sure how would it look on anyone else (Except Deepika..she pulls off everything), Bips managed to carry it.

10. Aditi Rao Hydari at IIFA Rocks

Aditi chose this oxblood Narendra Kumar suit and berry sandals..she looks chic..

Whose look did you like the most ?

P.S: I do not own any images.

Indo-Western Wear – Trends to Follow!

Indo-Western Wear – Trends to Follow!

When ethnic meets contemporary, it always offers a beautiful integration of two diverse worlds. This blend has much more to offer if we take a decent look at trends in indo-western wear in apparel industry. Quite a buzzword that has become, this trend is being ardently admired by fashion lovers globally.

The quintessential Indo-Western fusion carries many faces and offers a distinctive style to most of the traditional outfits. Whether it is about donning a traditional indian kurtis with a skirt or styling Indian saree with a contemporary twist, this synchronization resonates well with people who love to unleash their creativity and experiment with different styles.

Indian designers follow indo-western trends to a great extent and make beautiful outfits to suit different occasions. They have transformed the traditional outfits such as salwar kameez , saree and lehenga and re-invented them with most flattering styles. Their creativity in mixing up traditional and contemporary has coined innovative styles that can easily be fallen in love with.

Being inspired by many such styles, Indian women are not left behind in making fashion statement. They easily carry salwaar with a chic- looking top, pair a kurti with denim, drape saree in the most contemporary style that almost looks like a sophisticated evening dress or don an unusual yet classic combination of blouse and dhoti together.  Among many of these inimitable ensembles, Indo western gown too is making highlights by being one of the most preferred dresses for varied festive occasions. This full-length western gown can be embellished with Indian motif, embroidery patterns and fabrics and is ready to demand much needed attention from women across the globe.

Well, there seems to be no end to these indo-western creative combinations, as long as one has a knack of experimenting with bold looking styles; and ready to explore much more from the fashion secrets.
