Feb 2016 Zotiqq Jewellery Subscription Box Unboxing, Review

Hi guys, If you have read my January box review, you already know about Zotiqq. If not, go HERE.

MRP: Rs.1500/- per month (Buy HERE)

The Zotiqq jewellery subscription box is priced at Rs.1500/- per month but if you go for 3 months, 6 months or 12 months subscription, you get an amazing deal!

 

Feb box theme was ‘Aqua’ or ‘Sea Animals’, I think it is dedicated to ‘Pisces’. The box as usual comes in a deep navy blue and beige super sturdy box. You can store all your jewellery in it later too. Each item comes individually packed in plastic wrapping.

 

What I got:

  • A black star fish textured statement necklace
  • A bronze textured star fish ring
  • Pearl double sided strand earrings
  • A sea horse pendant long chain
  • Blue rope bracelet with an orange algae shaped hanging charm

The sea horse pendant long chain is perfect for your t shirts and sweaters. I absolutely loved the earrings, they would work with so many dresses and are super light yet chic at the same time.

The starfish ring makes quite a statement covering the entire finger beautifully, it looks like the ring is hugging your finger 😀

The mono colored black statement necklace will make a mark on a mono colored outfit i.e. all white or all green/blue. And the bracelet would work with your casual wear.

These are quite unique and interesting pieces and loved how they are combined together for the Aqua theme. I see myself wearing the ring and earrings a lot.

Definitely worth checking out the Feb Zotiqq box. I can’t wait for the March box now, looking forward to the new theme.

Zotiqq January Jewellery Subscription Box Unboxing, Review

Zotiqq January Jewellery Subscription Box Unboxing, Review

Hi guys,

I have unboxed and reviewed a lot of subscription boxes till now on the blog from makeup, beauty to food. This is the first time I am reviewing a jewellery subscription box.

Zotiqq is an online fashion & lifestyle portal where they have monthly jewellery subscription boxes and one can also buy the pieces they like individually. It is the brainchild of a fellow beauty blogger and friend Ritu Rajput, most of you must be knowing her, her blog is called ‘The Indian Beauty’

MRP: Rs.1500/- per month (Buy HERE)

The Zotiqq jewellery subscription box is priced at Rs.1500/- per month but if you have 3 months, 6 months or 12 months subscription, you get an amazing deal!

Coming to the January subscription box, it was the ‘New Year’ theme and hence had sparkly baubles. Let’s see what they are..

It comes in this royal blue and beige packaging, the box in itself is quite sturdy and nice and good to stock your jewellery or makeup. It comes nicely bubble wrapped and no jewellery was damaged. Each item is individually stored inside the box in a plastic cover, which is nice coz many a times the jewellery gets entangled within each other.

I got 5 items in this month’s box.

First two are a diamante statement neckpiece and matching set of statement earrings which can be worn together or individually.

Red tube mesh filled with rhinestones, statement neckpiece

My favourite from the lot, a statement cocktail ring.

And a pretty hand harness which will work with so many different outfits.

I like the theme based box and getting 4-5 pieces together at a price of Rs.1500/- coz individually these jewellery pieces cost a lot more. Definitely worth your money and I do recommend trying this jewellery subscription box.

I am not sure if the January box would be still available, but you can book the Feb subscription box right now 🙂

I wore this to the Avene #SensitiveSkin event as the theme was white and pink.

OOTD: Floral Blue Romper

OOTD: Floral Blue Romper

Hi guys,

I haven’t done an OOTD since a long time, I still have 1-2 outfits from my December trip to be posted, so wanted to share them with you soonest.

This is one of my favourite outfits from the trip. I wore this blue romper at Havelock in Andamans, we went to the Elephant Islands where we tried a lot of different water sports.

I love these round mirror sunnies of mine on my beach vacations especially. I also wore this camel brown woolen kind flat top cap since it was sunny, again another favourite. I love flat top caps since they look much smarter than the usual.

And wore this ‘Cool’ letter necklace in gold and my flip flops.

Romper, Cap, Necklace, Sunnies: Romwe
Flip Flops: Only

I love the fact that this outfit was so comfortable and easy,it felt really good. I love rompers coz they are very loose and free sized, so one can wear it anytime and walk/sit comfortably without worrying. And you can wear it even when you have lost weight or put on weight or feel bloated, this works always and covers your belly too 😉

I hope you liked the outfit. Do let me know in the comments below 🙂 Also, what do you prefer wearing at beach destinations? It is mostly flowy dresses/shorts/rompers/culottes for me.

OOTD: 3 Casual Outfits (Part 2)

OOTD: 3 Casual Outfits (Part 2)

Hi guys,

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.

Dress: Oxolloxo
Necklaces: The Lieben Store
Watch: Daniel Wellington
Shoes: Foot-in
Bag: StalkBuyLove

Outfit 2:

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.

I wore this outfit for a casual meeting. On my lips, I have the Maybelline Rebel Bouquet Lipstick in REB04 which matched perfect with the shirt co-incidentally.

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.

OOTD: Crop Top,White Culottes

OOTD: Crop Top,White Culottes

Hey guys,

An OOTD post today.I love culottes in monsoons coz they don’t get dirty from the bottom plus they dry out pretty quickly unlike denims. So culottes are your best bet in the rains. Also they give the look of a skirt with the feel of pants :p I had styled a pair of floral culottes last monsoon HERE.

This time it is a pair of white culottes and I went with a crop top. I love how the coral red crop top works with the white culottes. I was not too pleased with the fit of the culottes, but as the size increases so does the length and since I am short, it somehow clashes :/ I accessorized with a nice, chunky statement neck piece and let that be the showstopper of the outfit.

A simple gold midi ring, watch and brogues to complete the look.

OOTD: Printed Pleated Midi Skirt

OOTD: Printed Pleated Midi Skirt

Hey guys,

This is what I wore at the L’Oreal Paris You Cannes event. I absolutely love midi skirts and this printed pleated midi looks oh so pretty! So many asked me where is it from, and I anyways wanted to do an outfit post with it, so here it is.

This skirt is from CNDirect.com. I love their collection, they have amazing stuff at such reasonable prices. From clothing,bags, accessories, sunglasses to even cool gadgets and electronics, they stock everything. I was wary of the quality, but then they are so good quality wise too! I still have more things from CNDirect for future OOTD’s, wait for them 😉

I love the house and lake print on this skirt, there were 4 print options. (Click on the link given in outfit breakdown below to check the options) I was a bit confused as to which print I should go for, since all looked good.

I paired it with a white shirt, I was supposed to pair it with some other white shirt but I forgot that at my mom’s place, hence went for a backup :p

I am not allowed to wear high heels currently for 2-3 months, so I got these smallest nude heels from Foot-in for few of my dresses. If you follow me on twitter, you must have seen the Foot-in collection I shared there. I have another awesome pair which you guys will see soon! Foot-in is so affordable and I loved the variety they had, plus the quality is good too. These are so light on the feet. I was not sure if I would be able to wear heels currently, but this was pretty comfortable. Foot-in also has bags,belts and sunglasses. I got a super pretty, gold glitter belt too 😀

Accessory wise, I only wore this huge,super pretty statement necklace from Rosabelle Treasures. I soo love each and every neck piece they stock. Do check them out on facebook HERE or on Instagram HERE, you will surely be tempted to buy 2-3 😉 And you do not need any other accessory when you wear Rosabelle Treasures neckpieces, they are more than enough and will take your outfit from simple to glam, in an instant.

I loved the simple pearl pieces and the beautiful temple jewellery she stocks. I love temple jewellery and I feel it looks amazing with a simple South Indian saree. Also the fact that her prices are pretty reasonable compared to other online facebook stores.

I bought these pretty pieces recently from her store recently. They were neatly packed in separate plastic covers with bubble wrap and all together in a bigger plastic box.

This beautiful red and black beaded tribal necklace is my most favourite! How pretty and statementy is it! Can’t wait to pair it with my simple tees and shirts as this is more than enough and a statement in itself.

A white and gold layered pearl statement bracelet, a pair of gold and white square earrings. Isn’t that design quite cute.

And this pearl and diamante ring..

How pretty is this ring!

OOTD: Zovi Mustard Yellow Top with Gold Accessories

OOTD: Zovi Mustard Yellow Top with Gold Accessories

Hey guys,

A new OOTD, this time a pretty mustard yellow top from Zovi.com. I have shopped quite a lot of times from Zovi till date. I also got a very pretty polka dots dress and these blue and black ballerinas with this top for #BlogForZovi

I tried the shoes and they were a size smaller,so I had to exchange them. Though the process was smooth, it did take some time. Also I did not bother to try the dress before coz it was the usual size I order from Zovi and this top is of the same size. Unfortunately the dress is smaller and that is the first time I have faced it with Zovi.

Usually they have a measurement recommendation guide where you enter your stats and they recommend you the perfect size. Even that recommendation suggested the usual size. I really wanted to wear the dress and show it you guys in this post 🙁 I have initiated an exchange process again, I hope it happens quicker this time. I will surely do another OOTD with that dress 😀

Coming to this package, the process of ordering on Zovi is quite smooth since it is very user friendly and the navigation is also easy. They usually give you an expected delivery date but I have always received my parcels before the expected date.

I love this mustard yellow top with ruffled sleeve pattern and a gold button on the sides. It is simple and chic and can be accessorized well like I have here. Also these blue and black ballerinas with a buckle on top are comfortable and pretty, would go with a lot of casuals.

I paired the look with my gold accessories from Regium and my new Michael Kors Selma sling.

Top: Zovi
Shoes: Zovi
Denims: Kraus
Necklace, Cuff: Regium
Bag: Michael Kors

I also created this men’s casual wear set with items from Zovi..

I hope you like the looks..do let me know in the comments below 🙂
