Weekend Conundrums

With the commencement of summer break, there are quite a few gatherings to attend almost every weekend. Additionally, when it comes to dressing up for those weekends, it's a task to find such pieces that blend in with the easy going vibe without going OTT.

I love how this cut-out dress from Oranje acts as a complete savior. It can get arduous to sit down and pick out the outfit with the correct balance of casual yet edgy. The dress has details to fall for and what's more, the cut-out facet gives a modish demeanor to it.

When it comes to day outs, a handbag can sure come in as handy. With a humongous amount of things to carry from your cell phone to various touch-up makeup products, a sizable bag at your disposal can be quite convenient. This bag from Anqi is perfect for those times. The most striking feature of the bag is its expert craftsmanship and the lace details. So if you're looking for those sturdy built bags, you know where to look.

I decided on keeping the accessories at a minimum. The black cherry dress from Oranje and the tan bag from Anqi fell seamlessly, ensuring conformity while they were at it. Finished my look with a coral lip and I was good to go.

With this post, we come to the end of the #bloggerofthemonth series for Oranje. Always a pleasure to collaborate with brands that stand to induce more than just chic clothing. So, choose what you wear with Oranje.

But fret not, I shall soon be back with another post. Till then, let me know what you think of this one in the comments below.

Until next time, lovely people!

Timeless Classic

During times of picking new outfits, I often tend to digress towards more of party clothing(guilty-as-charged) and by-pass the casual section of the store. However, I get to using them occasionally and in the end, casuals seem to get the better of me.

Talking about casuals, a classic white shirt can pretty much be the bridge to switch from business to travel or casual. I love how a white shirt never fails to elevate any outfit, whether worn under a suit or jacket or on its own. And I'd have to agree, there's no such thing as too many.

This shirt from Oranje's latest collection left me with an ensemble which had the perfect mix of style, comfort and edge. The most striking aspect of the shirt had to be the zipper details, embossed beautifully into its making. I decided on creating a street style look with the most quintessential  pairing of all time - the classic white shirt put together with denims.

Let me know how you're beating the heat and what is your summer classic?

Until next time, lovelies!

Synchronization

The past few weeks seem to have literally blown by in a flicker. With the work load rising, I have been caught up in quite a few things. But hey, whats there to complain when you love what you do? There's a lot that is lined up and I'm pretty excited to bring it all to you. 

I recently discovered Desi Urban - and instantly took to their casual vibe with an inclination towards Indian patterns. Stacked at pocket friendly prices, the brand aims at an amalgamation of chic and rustic trends. I received this dress in an envelope that read 'Your not so secret weapon'. And rightly so. 

In this look, I'v resorted to a minimalist approach. The intricate detailing of the dress is highly appealing as it synchronizes easily, making it effortless to style. Decided on styling the look with cat eyed glasses and a gold choker. 

Go find yourself a chic outfit from Desi Urban's collection here.

Hope you enjoyed this look as much as I enjoyed it creating for you.

Until next time, lovelies!

Flounce

I have been a city girl for as long as I can remember. There is something truly beguiling about the way the thrilling hustle and accelerated pace pushes you to move further. Having said that, however,  once in a while its imperative to find serenity in what you do and entangle from the daily convolutions that seem to tag along. That's the vibe I sought to create in this post. 

Off-shoulders have created quite a buzz for a while now and they're here to stay for the long haul, the trend not disappearing anytime soon. Being a component of the 'Blogger of the Month' series, this particular black off-shoulder from Oranje's collection had me falling for it before it even arrived.

More often than not, we experience those days before a big night where we'd opt for a rather chic find of a dress, black being the palette most of the times.This off-shoulder dress is unquestionably ideal for such events that call for sudden occasions that require a pinch of sophistication. The whole flounce finish of the dress acted as double brownie points, enough to make you happily twirl in it. I amped up the outfit with statement pumps and rose studs to bring about a chic facet to the look. 

Let me know in the comments below how you liked this look and I shall see you soon with a new post.

Until then, keep hustling! 

Camouflage #BloggerOfTheMonthSeries

The charm of this month is enough to allure any fashion enthusiast into its entwined web, enough to announce me as Blogger of the Month for Oranje Clothing. It's always amazing when your work is appreciated enough to lead to the next level, and it gets all the more better when it's coming from a brand symbolizing the power of femininity.

I have an unbounded love for all things summer(as I have mentioned many times before); and florals form an indispensable part of it. When it comes to warmer days, most of us resort to the unfailing floral print and there is absolutely no going wrong with them. That being one of the major reasons that made me choose this particular outfit for the series. 

 With this look in mind, I wanted to bring out the feminine and delicate element of the dress. I love intricate details and the lace section was my undoing. However, the most striking aspect of the outfit has to be the floral design, which was further enhanced when camouflaged with the background. It's great for those brunch dates out when you want to look your girly best and still retain that bit of crisp dressing. 

This being just the start of the series, there's a lot more in store for the month. 

Let me know how you liked this look and what's your idea for a girls day out look?

Until next time!

Girl Boss

There's just something with blues and my closet; maybe its their bold versatility that always seems to draw me towards them no matter what the occasion. My obsession with jumpsuits goes a long way back. I have always been more of a pant girl and jumpsuits have been my constant companions in times where I just couldn't find the rightly coordinated pieces for my outfits.

And this post is mainly about that. I came across 'Oranje Clothing' and while rummaging through their website, instantaneously fell in love with this royal blue jumpsuit. For those of you new to Oranje, its ideology is not concentric to merely providing chic garments, but evoking an alteration in dressing by provoking a change in the mindset of women at the same time. Honestly there were quite a few pieces that caught my heart because they were all very innovative and smart in their making.

Eventually, however, I gave into this blue jumpsuit. I created a sharp look with the jumpsuit, mirroring the modern women of the current times. It gets somewhat taxing to get work and social life at an equilibrium, and even more baffling with deciding which attire to wear that can act as near substitutes for both. The blue jumpsuit literally fits right in, Not only is it sharp, the cold shoulder and slits make it so much more chic. I finished the look by adding a black choker and handbag.

Until next time, lovelies! 

Ethnic Route

I have absolutely been loving the new transformation in the season. As for me, the onset of summer just seems to bring in a new air of positivism with it and for good reason. Summer garments hold a great deal of innovative possibilities that can act as extension of comfort while they're at it. Nothing's better than opting for an ensemble that brings in a congenial element that has a comfortable outward appearance. 

Which brings me to today's post! I'm sure you have already been introduced to Sissies Attire in my previous post. Since I couldn't get enough of their garments, I'm back with a second, more casual and everyday look that was effortless in its styling. 

Summer is difficult to picture without slits and bright colors. However, this blue maxi fit's right in. It might be the first time that I'm sporting a ethnic, more Indian outfit on the blog but its always good idea to push your boundaries now and then. I decided to style the piece with my blue denims as it gives a modern touch to the whole look and aids in highlighting the slit. As for the accessories, I put together a blue stoned cuff to give a slight lift to the ensemble.

Until next time!
