Knotted Florals

This is another one of my college outfits, today was my last day of college before 2 weeks of break! You cannot imagine how happy and exited I am to have holidays! Let's just say I really needed it!

Also, today is my Birthday :D
So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me :)

22 years ago, I was born on this day!

I love teaming slightly short skirts with sheer stockings to give the outfit a perfect balance of chic yet appropriate. It's another reason why I'm so glad Fall is here - Bring out the stockings!

 Wearing: 

American Outfitters floral shirt, Forever 21 skirt, Accessorize neck-piece, Omega watch, Charlotte Rusee flats 

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
Have a little extra fun for me since it's my birthday ;)

Hello!

I wore this outfit a while back and clicked it with my new camera :D:D:D (giddyyy!), it's a lil fancy so I'm still getting used to using it as is everyone I ask to click me (hence the lack of photos) and, incase you're wondering I often ask anyone I can find to click me :P

Check out my new bag (with a cut-out butterfly key-chain) and my cool new olive coloured skinny pants!

Wearing:

Pants: Benetton, Top and hairband: Forever 21, scarf: thrifted, bag: Accessorize, slippers:thrifted

Wide(n) Your View

Wide legged pants have been making a comeback for a while (check out how I wore them in an earlier post HERE) and I'm all for this awesome trend :)

I can't live without my skinnies, but wide legged jeans are the comfiest thing ever! they feel like big pajamas (that you can wear in public).

I've had this pair of Benetton jeans for over 7 years now, thank the lord I never threw them away and that they still fit me, it sure helped me save a few bucks!

What goes around comes around eh?

Wearing:

White tank and ruched sleeve top: Forever 21, Scarf: thrifted (50 rupees = 1 $), jeans: Benetton, black wedges: Bella, belt: thrifted, bangles: gift from friend

I learnt how to tie my scarf in this innovative way (I basically tied both the ends together, made a loop, put it around my neck and belted it. You know I'd belt anything right?) from a lovely lady named Sydney; you can check out her husband and her awesome blog HERE, it's called The Daybook :D

3 Days

Today I decided to do things a little differently, I've put up a bunch of photos I've taken over the past few days but hadn't put up yet.

It's three completely different looks, for totally different occasions, showing three different sides to my personality.

Depending on my mood, I love dressing up girl-y and pretty in pinks and pearls and also a little edgy and fun with oodles of black.

Day 1: Biker Blab

The prettiest feather earrings (Forever 21)

Day 2: Semi Formal

Its Placement time at NIFT and this is what I wore to college today as a  placement volunteer, it was so much fun! :)

Day 3: Pretty Pearl

This is something I wore to a friends party a few weeks ago.

Thanks for stopping by,

Brick by Brick & Layer by Layer

The NIFT campus in New Delhi is small but beautiful! it has some very interesting architecture, lot's of artwork, oodles of talent, and some refreshing greenery as well! (everything you would expect from a design institute + more!)

My lovely friend and classmate Shivani (who is also a fellow blogger; check her blog out HERE) took my photographs today in the NIFT campus; Thank You Shivani :)

I loved the pile of bricks at the side...such a nice site for photographs :)

  

Wearing:

Acid-washed jeans: Bangkok, Black sweater: Benetton, Grey open sweater: Promod, Belt and printed racer back (worn underneath; peaking out from under my top): thrift, striped grey t-shirt: Westside, boots: Wet Seal, clutch-wallet: Forever 21

I love layered dressing; its functional and stylish at the same time. It was my mom who first taught me the basics of how to layer (longer tops below shorter ones and complimentary/similar toned colors teamed together are a safe bet) but ofcourse, there are no real 'Rules' to dressing up, it's something so personal and spontaneous!

 I kept the color palette of todays outfit very basic but I really liked it that way!

With so many layers in my outfit (four to be precise!) The slim waist-cinching belt was much needed to break the bulk and give my outfit some shape.


Also, a big shout out to the O-MAN for lending me his cool iphone 4 to click :)

Biker Blah

My darling boyfriend bought me this kick-ass faux leather jacket this December and I'm absolutely in love with it! (and him ;))

We got it for a real good price and it goes with just about everything I've been wearing lately; jeans, tights and believe it or not even lace party dresses!

 

Wearing:

Faux Leather jacket, Blue dress, Black high waist skirt (worn under dress) and feather earrings : Forever 21,  Cardigan: GAP, Patterned tights: Hong-Kong street, Hobo bag: Accessorize, Suede Boots: Charlotte Russe

 

I love the Biker Chick edge the jacket gave my look, bringing out my inner rebel :P

The Biker Chick look is basically about leather everything, jeans, boots, lots of black and of course bikes!, I just gave a slight flavor to my outfit for the day with the black and the jacket.

Everyone gets their zipper stuck once in a while.

 

My roomy Hobo that fits in everything! and my trusty suede boots which I have worn to death this season.

A very HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone and thank you for reading my blog :)
