So my birthday was on 22nd and I was in Jaipur that time, I just wanted to share my birthday outfit with you all.
I wore this lace little black dress from StalkBuyLove and paired it with everything gold. Also gold and black was appropriate for the Christmas and Party Season. I am so obsessed with this dress, I would have worn it for New Year Party for sure, sadly no plans :/
I paired it with gold tassel earrings, rose gold watch and a glitter clutch. Also stacked some gold midi rings and my trusted black and gold ankle strap sandals.
We clicked this at Nahargarh Haveli in Jaipur where we were staying for 3 days, it is an old haveli refurbished into an hotel. There are similar other hotels in Jaipur like Nani Ki Haveli, Alsisar, Virasat, etc.
Our first two days were at Zone By The Park and I would be doing a separate post about it, coz the experience was mind blowing.

A new OOTD post today. It was our first wedding anniversary on Sunday and we went to the Rivergate Resort in Karjat. I can’t believe it’s been one year, I have no idea where time is flying, the year was mixed actually. The first half of the first wedding year went into the accident, recovery and the repercussions. It is very, very difficult to get out of it mentally more than the physical recovery. I still fear crossing roads, still mind my every step and over cautious about everything. The accident nightmares every night don’t let you sleep.
Anyhoo, it’s gone and done now. I want to start my 2nd wedding year like it’s the first year and it’s a fresh start 🙂 We shifted to a new place and everything is new. I hope we can keep things happy happy. I was wearing this casual military green shirt half tucked that day and I shot this outfit.
I paired the shirt with my blue Forever 21 denims and my favourite nude brogues. I kept the overall look very simple and my new Michael Kors navy blue sling bag and the rose gold watch completed the look.

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.

A new OOTD today, this week I attended the Grazia BeauTea Party at The Taj Mahal Tea House in Bandra. It was a small meet of 6-7 bloggers and the Beauty Editor and Art Director of Grazia India. It will be covered in next month’s Grazia magazine which is the ‘Beauty Special’, so do grab your hands on that 😀
Anyhoo, this is what I wore. I am loving this red frills skater dress, it is so so comfortable and the frills make it look super pretty. Also it was a common style in the 80’s and has made a comeback and why not when all the styles from 70’s and 80’s have 😀
I paired it with my black fringed sling bag and black and gold ankle strap sandals. Finished with my current favourite Michael Kors rose gold link watch.
Remember the 3 casual outfits I did last time (See HERE). I think it’s a nice idea to bring together some daily wear casual outfits and many of you liked the post, so I thought of continuing this series.
Here are another 3 casual outfits which I wore recently in an event or for a meeting or here and there..
Outfit 1:
The first outfit is this lovely blue,brown,white printed dress which has a tie-dye kind of effect. It comes with a belt which accentuates the waist and fits perfectly, also has a flare at the ends, love the way it falls. The dress is from Oxolloxo and it costs only Rs.518/- 😀 Steal, isn’t it? The sleeves are bell shaped and slightly long for me, I prefer folding them 🙂
I paired it with my black tasseled sling and tan brogues. For accessories, my favourite Daniel Wellington watch and layered silver dainty pieces.
One is my name pendant and the other is an infinity with love, both are from The Lieben Store on Instagram. Do check them out for some cute accessories. They have these small necklaces and rings to cute hair bands and wrist bands and a lot of other cute stuff.
Second outfit is this bright coral sheer shirt with metallic gold pointed collar clips.It is from a new Instagram store called ES Collection, they have simple but classic pieces and that can be customized to your size,also a lot of sizes are available. The best part is they are quite economical too.
I paired it with white straight fit pants and black studded ballets. My Daniel Wellington watch and MK Mini Selma sling completed the look.
Shirt: ES Collection
Pants: Wills Lifestyle
Watch: Daniel Wellington
Bag: Michael Kors Mini Selma
Shoes: Steppings (Fashion & You)
Outfit 3:
Midi skirts are still in trend and I believe they still would be for some time,at least 😀 I love midi skirts and have 3-4 of these. (See one HERE)
I had this pretty white midi skirt with red roses print on it. I paired it with a red crop top from a red co-ordinates set and a vintage looking leaf statement necklace. My Daniel Wellington watch, MK sling and gold ankle strap heels completed the look.
I wore this to the Lakme Pro Stylist Studio Launch here in Phoenix,Lower Parel, Mumbai.

I am back with an OOTD. I have seen palazzos doing rounds since a long time,I always felt they look good only on taller and leaner women like maxi dresses, and hence never tried them.
This time, I thought, why not give it a try and I saw this beautiful floral palazzos and fell in love with them. This navy blue lace crop top matched perfectly with the palazzos and also the fit was amazing,it hugged the body snuggly. The upper part was lace which played a peek-a-boo.
The palazzos are so,so comfortable. light and airy. I feel I can wear them everyday, even in these summers.
Since the top and bottoms were lace and floral, I did not accessorize much and just went with my classic watch and tan brogues. And my favourite companion MK Selma Mini.
I wore this at the Pantene event last week, and we also met the super hot Lisa Haydon.

If you read the previous post, you know we had been for lunch yesterday at The Trident, BKC. We also ended up shooting the outfit since I loved the decor.
I wore this pretty orange lace dress which can also be worn off shoulder, but since I had layered it with a blazer, I wore it normally. I absolutely love the fit and how it hugs the waist and gives a shape and is not like a shift dress. Plus orange and yellow are my favourite colors <3
I wore this very light, floral blazer on top. It is so light, that I could comfortably wear it in these summers too. (obviously with the AC indoors) Since the dress and blazer are all bright and colorful, I skipped the accessories and kept the bag and shoes neutral.
So, I paired the outfit with my favourite Michael Kors sling (which you guys are bored of seeing now, but I am too lazy to change bags :D) and another current favourite, these tan brogues. Also added, a classic Daniel Wellington watch.
