OOTD: Love for Co-Ords

OOTD: Love for Co-Ords

Hi guys,

I am loving co-ords these days and I have shot three set of co-rds in last month alone, including this one 😀 It’s not just a skirt and crop top, it can be a longer maxi skirt or a pant suit or a pant top too.

Co-ords are basically same colour/print/fabric. Made from the same fabric and colour, just two separates which can be either paired together or separately mixed and matched with different things.

But when paired together, they look amazing. I love the fact that they are versatile and you can create different outfits with co-ords but some look good together only.

I got this co-ords set from Lulu & Sky sale recently and it almost looks like a dress. There is not much gap in between the crop top and skirt here, I find Lulu & Sky sizes very varied. It’s a big issue and I always end up returning 1-2 outfits if I buy like 3-4 at a go.

Last time I had a lot of issues in returns and they didn’t process my refund for a month, hence I have stopped shopping from Lulu & Sky for now 😀

Every outfit of theirs has a different size just like SheIn, so there is no set standard that if you are a M in this, you will always be M. For e.g. I fit in some M and some L from Lulu, and some L were super tight and they look S. It’s that varied literally and hence a hit and miss.

This set is L and the skirt is still slightly tight at the waist as you can see 😀 So it’s high waist and hence there is not much gap in between and it looks like a dress.

But I loved the fine floral print and the skirt is very skater-ish which makes the outfit look very pretty. And on sale, I got this set for around Rs.450 which I thought was a fabulous deal, hence went for it. I did doubt the size though and it fit just above right, like a little adjustment wearing it slightly high but won’t fit if I put on a little weight 😀 Such sizing is always tricky.

I kept the shoes flat and comfy, I am happy slides are back into fashion as they are very comfortable to walk around in and look cute as well.

Anyhoo coming back to co-ords, the fabric is thick and comfortable and the off shoulder top has elastic where it ends, so it fits well. It does bunch up a bit on the top because of the elastic at the bottom, so you have to keep on adjusting that. But at least you know it’s secure unlike some flimsy crop tops which could fly up if windy 😀

There are other fun co-ords OOTD’s coming soon 🙂

OOTD: Pleated Skirt Love

OOTD: Pleated Skirt Love

Hi guys,

Thank you for all the love on my previous orange dress OOTD here and on Instagram. I am back again with another OOTD from the same shoot.

I own a few midi skirts, a printed town blue one and a red and white floral one, but I didn’t have a pleated one. Pleated skirts make you look classy and elegant instantly, plus they don’t need ironing often, so are very low maintenance.

I love how romantic an outfit looks, with a pleated skirt. I got this champagne pleated skirt from Lulu & Sky. I love the mesh net at the lower half which plays a peek-a-boo. It adds something extra to the plain pleated skirt, and it was quite a steal during sale.

This black one off shoulder top is from H&M. Again something I bought on sale, when H&M started online in India, they had free shipping and 25% off on first order for the first two weeks.

This black top is very versatile and can be paired with numerous skirts/denims and is a classic piece. Only thing is it’s not cotton, so not for hot summer days.

It hugs the body well and the off shoulder sits well on me. The only issue is, since it’s body hugging, if you wear something tight like the waist band of this skirt, there will be some flab accentuated through the top. But only if you wear it with something that is tight on the waist and back, not something like a jeans or denim skirt i.e. non elastic.

I did have this issue with this pairing as obviously I do have fat and I am not a zero stomach/body fat completely fit person 😀 (yet, wish to be fitter for sure)

But other than that, I love everything about this pairing. Black and champagne work well together and you can make your pleated skirt formal with a formal black top and heels like this or casual with a tee and sneakers. It looks good both ways and I would definitely pair it with sneakers too, stay tuned to my Instagram for more outfit posts and pairings 🙂

I paired the outfit with silver glitter heels. Now these heels are not too high and are comfortable with the apt height and complimented the outfit well.

I could have added something around my neck, but I felt it would a little too much. I would have definitely added something a year or two ago, but I am past that phase now. I love small, delicate accessories/jewellery or nothing at all.
