Grunge Out

Its no theory that when you look good you feel good !!!! Sounds silly but you'd be surprised how easy it is to pull off mundane when you know that power dressing is just a wink away. 

I just threw this look in precisely 5 mins tops. The Missa More Slits revel in romance, and sometimes you can add easy chic n casual to it. I love the fact that how versatile they are.

Wanted to take this trend to a next new level, and to prove that unencumbered exists in fashion , marinated the soft florals with a wee bit of grunge soil.

Pushed the sofa a bit this time and  tried this part feminine and part Rock style,just to reflect a trend in everyday dressing up.

Now that I write this post, in my endeavour and only chance to communicate with you, I feel that am considerably more dressed up than in recent memory.

I have been known lately for my brutal presentation and taste in colours,(precisely choice of weird  lipsticks ) to which I  logically say, u don't know it unless u have tried it.  A trend which bestowed a certain cachet , is now going a bit mainstream and I feel that sooner I would see my favourite fashionistas and blogger buddies warming them to it. India takes dwarf steps when it comes to acceptance, but yeahh, we are just there when a giant leap in fashion would soon be a thing of the present.

This look is an attempt  to soften the blow of summer coming to an end. The darker colours say that all, don't ya think ? Lets chat in the comments ;)

Simple Ways to Save Money on Your Wedding Guest Outfit

Recently one of my close friend is invited for a wedding in UK, and I have been helping her shop all week.Heard from them that they opted for UK ,with an overnight hotel stay.The whole drama and wedding concepts are so easy to figure in their country with this kind of service, which I am hearing for the first time. Loved the whole concept and so unlike our country where things have to be sorted manually.

Beginners Guide to Make-Up Essentials | Beauty

It's been a long overdue of makeup posts, and this one makes up for it for the lack of so many.Starting with basics, I would continue sharing some insights on the products that are my favourites and have been using continuously.

So here goes :)

They say there is nothing as amazing as natural beauty, and they would be absolutely right! The natural beauty that a woman displays on a daily basis cannot be rivaled, but it can be enhanced with the line of  few cosmetic products which can easily shop. If you are new to the concept of makeup however, knowing what you need to keep in your bag can be a bit harrowing. In fact, you might be seeking some help—which is precisely why I  have put together this brief list of makeup essentials for beginners. What do you need in your bag?

Foundation

There are both liquid and powder foundations, but the most common today is going to be liquid, and it is far easier to apply. This will set the tone for your face, and that means it is very important that you find one that matches your own skin, or at least get as close as possible. Remember: if someone compliments you on your foundation, you are doing it wrong.

Translucent Powder

Where foundation sets the tone, translucent powder will begin to cover the blemishes on your face. Unsightly scars and moles can be easily covered up with translucent powder, but once again, it is critical you find one that matches your skin tone. If you choose a powder that is too dark, it will appear as if you have a sunburn, or at least a darker complexion which will not properly match the rest of your body. Choose carefully, and know that sometimes it is best to simply use baby powder if you have a very light skin tone.

Sporty Chic Mania

Deep down the nostalgic path, let me just Time travel you all to my  post where I told you how I am loving this sporty chic trend.Sneakers with my outfits just let me play with the edge and the iridescent colours remind me of moments of summers with a crisper feeling.Even the french women are running around in their sheaths with sneakers haha..

The headband has made the comeback. The style is more or less the same, and mixing elegant with athletic pieces has a spirit of its own. I love to wake the unexpected most of times(usually). Looking for edgy things to add drama and then setting my sight to pieces geared to bringing the fun, without being sloppy cannot be a child's play. 

For this look, I planned on having a silly dress up day. No reasons whatsoever. The mood was good, humidity was less, and the hair on my legs were recently plucked  (read  shaved). The high waist shorts, literally rides up into my Hoo-haa and has a mind of its own, which I think from next I am strictly using them for athleisure kind of appearance only.

The Crop from  Stalk Buy Love  in this summery refined  powder blue lets me exercise my quirk elements. With Autumn just around the corner, this is is one helluva take away trend that satiates all my fetish wear demands.Of Course the headband stays . Haven't figured much ways to spearhead this quirky accessory with other looks, but with fashion week round the corner, you are gonna see me styling this head-turner more often I guess.

Some Slit Power With MissaMore.Com

Women come with a default plug in. Plug ins-  where we become easily obsessed with  things we love to do, and cannot stop thinking about.For eg. I can recall the precise moment when I realized that fashion is my drug. I cannot say for sure, if I am gonna be pulling the plug anytime sooner,but spending much time planning a perfect wardrobe is like a sojourn, always cognizant of the fact, that I have to express myself to you full throttle. And in the quest to do the same,I love associating myself with new brands, their usps, and the new swings in fashion they have to offer.

Today I am wearing this long slit top from MissaMore. Not my first time on this style boat, but yeah kind off dabbling in feminine and moving on to the next big thing or as we always call it - A trend.

I don't remember if I have ever worn a bright multi-hued floral number,which is a great standout .

And for this sole reason, the bottoms were picked wisely, to put together a look starting to further the embodying of smartly tailored and conceptual fashion from head to toe and as a way to be completely elegant  and primally pleasurable allowing me to channel, demure but with enhanced spiritedness.

After all, our dressing up(in good clothes) just ratifies the personality, and the confidence we never know exists. Wanna know a secret ?

 ...............................I am always wearing my invisible crown.

Anarkali Suit - Fiercely Indian in Red

It's been a while since I posted an outfit on Indian wear. You know me and my be-holdence to Mix-O-Logy with outfits, coz I believe there is fashion for everyone in India, and there isn't any colour, style, or mix that shouldn't be left to uncover. It's my devotion to wild prints and offbeat styles that sets my blog on a different bar, and I know the cult which loves me doing that, and I love you too for the same.

Today's look is from a recent #AlterEgo campaign which I did earlier last month with Indian designer Sonal Jain.

If there is any colour that lets you work your wardrobe with ease, is RED. You can actually rationalize your closet space by stocking colours like red, black and white .  This red is electrifying classy, and it gave me a lot of inventory to play with my beautiful baubles too. They are pretty and exactly practical and are now available to shop from right (here).

If you feel Red is too bright for that kind of occasion , or places you need lesser drama, you can tone it down in a flash by adding neutral makeup , just make sure you have a lot of eye-work to play with.

I love the intricate golden embroidery details on this piece.Don't miss the stunner back , and the floral dupatta, which makes it totally cool, up and running for a great contrast. Added a bindi to my styling prowess. It's slowly becoming my signature style, and I love to punctuate my assemble  with these and add a bonus point whenever possible . 

Hope this look lets you gear up somewhat for the coming festive season.  Don't forget to Let me know if you like this post ;) Any future recommendations are welcome too.

Keep Shining -xoxo
