OOTD: Abstract Print Overlapping Shift Dress

OOTD: Abstract Print Overlapping Shift Dress

Hey guys,

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.

OOTD: Abstract Print Overlapping Shift Dress, Indian Fashion Blog, StalkBuyLove

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.

OOTD: Denim Blue Off Shoulder Crop Top, Floral Pencil Skirt

OOTD: Denim Blue Off Shoulder Crop Top, Floral Pencil Skirt

Hey guys,

OOTD time! The moment I saw this crop top in the Stalkbuylove’s Stalker magazine early last month in the New Arrivals, I knew I had to get this! It is off shoulder, which is a trend quite IN this spring/summer. Also the denim blue colour would compliment a lot of different bottoms from black to bright colors to floral like I have paired it with today. Crop tops are absolutely fabulous with anything high waist like high waisted denims/skirts/culottes.

I have paired crop tops with culottes, palazzos and lace mini skirt earlier. And yes with pencil skirts too, see HERE and HERE. And of course, when they come with it’s own set i.e. co-ordinates/matching separates makes it all the more better coz you can not only wear them as coords but also separately with basics.

I have paired this Chester crop top with a black floral skirt. I had this skirt since quite some time (shown in this HAUL video), when I saw this crop top, I knew I would be pairing it with this skirt 😀 Yes, I mentally put together my outfits all the time 😉

Also I love bucket bags, if you know I already have the big orange one from StalkBuyLove which I love using. And I also like backpacks, so when I saw this tan backpack which is like a bucket bag i.e. 2 in 1, I immediately added it to the cart!

Tip: Tan/Neutral bags and shoes will always work with everything, so if you like something in tan, don’t think twice and just get it, you will be surely using that a lot.

I completed the look with my Daniel Wellington watch and these black Forever 21 mules. Now I know mules don’t have a strap behind usually, but this one does. Had got them during sale, again had showed these in the above linked haul video.

OOTD: Powder Blue Jumpsuit

OOTD: Powder Blue Jumpsuit

Hi guys,

So I had this powder blue ‘Flying Kisses’ Jumpsuit from StalkBuyLove since a long time, but never got a chance to wear it, finally I wore this to the Oppo F1 Plus Launch event in Delhi.

We were staying at The Lalit and we clicked the pics there. Magali helped me with the pics.

To start with, I love the powder blue colour of this jumpsuit, and it’s perfect for this Spring/Summer. I paired the jumpsuit with my Steve Madden clogs and a deep navy blue Michael Kors sling.

Also my recent addition the new Daniel Wellington watch in Classic Durham. If you don’t already know, I am obsessed with Daniel Wellington watches and have about 4 now, with 2 new additions making it 6. Durham is the new launch in the Classics range of 36mm. And as always I go for Rose Gold Dial. The light brown American Leather strap makes it ideal to pair with a lot of outfits from casual to formal. They have also launched the new ‘Dapper’ range which is slightly smaller i.e. 34mm and has blue hands and also displays date. I got the Bristol in Dapper which you will be seeing a lot on my Instagram.

I also have a flat 15% off Daniel Wellington coupon code ‘DWBHUMIKA’ and it is valid till 31st May. They have free shipping worldwide, I do recommend getting a Classic or Dapper, as they work with everything and having at least one Daniel Wellington watch in your collection is a must, especially if you are a watch collector/lover.

I kept the outfit in shades of blue with tan shoes and watch. The idea was to keep jumpsuit the focus here, you can always use a pop of colour in your shoes or bag or accessories. The same jumpsuit is available in 2-3 different colors, so you can check those out if you prefer a darker color.

I am loving maxi dresses and I picked this Anita Dongre maxi dress during their sale. It’s a black, white and orange printed maxi dress which cinches at the waist and flares after the waistline. It also has cutout at the shoulders. Whenever I can’t decide what to wear, I will just pick this up. I paired it with my navy blue Michael Kors sling and watch, in all the three outfits you will see the same bag and watch coz I have only been using this in the month of Feb. And of course my favourite black block heels with gold ankle strap.

Dungarees 101: How To Rock Dungarees

Dungarees 101: How To Rock Dungarees

Hi guys,

Today’s post is quite different, it is not the usual OOTD post, but a post dedicated exclusively to Dungarees. Let me tell all about dungarees, the history, how to dress it up, dress it down.

Starting with the history of dungarees, they have been around since the late 1700’s. Dungarees were worn by farmers, slaves and the likes since they were inexpensive and not prone to easy tear but also carried a stigma of low status for the same reason. Women started wearing them during World Wars coz it was the perfect material for those working in factories. They came back in fashion in the 40’s and 50’s starting with children wear and since then, they have been quite famous and IN and OUT of fashion.

Dungarees are back again in fashion and they come in different types and styles, from shorts to skirts to trousers style, denim style, suspenders, ripped denims, etc. They can be paired in a million ways and can be dressed up or dressed down. Dungarees are easy to wear and super comfortable. See a lot of dungarees here on StalkBuyLove.com

Although they have always mostly been associated with casual style, today I am showing you how I dress up my basic black dungarees for a formal, evening look!

Also we shot this small lookbook 🙂

I am wearing this basic, black trouser style dungarees with a simple white crop top and dressed it up with my trusted black blazer and nude heels. I added a pop of colour with this pastel pink Kate Spade bag. My current favourite wood watch from Jord watches completes this look!

Dungarees, Crop top: StalkBuyLove
Bag: Kate Spade
Heels: Steve Madden
Watch: Wood Watches

I love the look and feel of the wood watch, they work with both casual and formal wear and look quite unique. Jord watches have free shipping worldwide, they customize the watch for your size and have 1 year warranty. Do check out the site mentioned above to see more of their pieces.

Of course, we can’t forget the casual way when it comes to dungarees. I am wearing this denim skirt dungarees in a fun, casual way with a white cap, the ‘Rose Chic’ rose pink back pack and holographic silver shoes. The white tee has red sequin heart on the elbows 🙂

I wear my heart on my elbow 😀

This is more of a ‘Back to School’ kind of look and it was so much fun shooting this.

Queen Of Good Times 🙂

Birthday OOTD: Lace LBD

Birthday OOTD: Lace LBD

Hi guys,

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.

Dress: StalkBuyLove
Earrings: The Trunk Label
Clutch: Gifted by Maybelline

On my Lips: Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Pout in Pink Fantasy

I am so glad hubby did not blur the pictures this time, unlike always 😀 I hope you liked the outfit, do let me know in the comments below 🙂

Indian OOTD: Vikram Phadnis for Nakkashi Double Layered Anarkali

Indian OOTD: Vikram Phadnis for Nakkashi Double Layered Anarkali

Hi guys,

This outfit was long, long overdue like it has been months that the shoot was just not happening. At first, the stitching, etc. took a lot of time since the outfit was semi-stitched and the jacket was completely open. Then co-ordinating with the photographers was not happening and I was occupied and then I shifted and what not. Finally we went to Jaipur and I thought it was the perfect location for this outfit, so we shot it there.

This semi-stitched anarkali dress is from the ‘Nakkashi’ line and designed by Vikram Phadnis, it was also a part of last year’s Lakme Fashion Week.

Vintage Desi basically makes designer labels much affordable and within the reach, it’s perfect for wedding shopping and the current wedding season. You get everything from clothes to accessories to jewellery here.

I also did a small outfit video..

Let me tell you a little more about this outfit: Top: Double layered top with lycra georgette and sequin embroidery net fabric
Jacket: Chiffon net jacket, cord lace with sequin highlight
Dupatta: Chiffon beige dupatta with elegant border
Bottom: Beige color heavy crepe palazzo with badla zari embroidery work on navy velvet on border

It’s priced at Rs.9450/- which is pretty good for the work, fabric, quality, design plus the brand label. Though it being semi-stitched makes it a little difficult to customize for yourself. Like here you cannot see the palazzos because the outfit is not for my height and the jacket is way too long and even after some customization, it was not possible to cut the work below or open it completely and re-stitch it. If you completely open the entire material, it will turn out to be very expensive and than it being semi-stitched will be of no use to you.

Even after wearing heels, the work at the palazzos cannot be seen unless a person sits or twirls or something like that 😀 Anyway, I absolutely love the beige and gold color and self sequin work. The navy velvet border on the palazzos make a beautiful striking contrast. The jacket is separate and can be worn with many other different outfits. The outfit is totally worth the price!

I hope you liked the outfit and pictures, do let me know in the comments below. Also definitely check out Vintage Desi for the current wedding shopping or anything Indian wear from jewellery to outfits to accessories. You can even sell on the website.

OOTD: Casual Half Tuck Military Green Shirt

OOTD: Casual Half Tuck Military Green Shirt

Hi guys,

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.

Shirt: StalkBuyLove
Denims: Forever21
Bag, Watch: Michael Kors

OOTD: Roses in Galaxy

OOTD: Roses in Galaxy

Hi guys,

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 🙂
