POTD #20: His Sweater + Your Boots = Winter Chic!

A lot of girls I know LOVE to donne a borrowed-from-the-boys look. In fact, like I mentioned in my article for FilterCopy, girls who have an older brother, mastered the androgynous fashion pretty early in life. So why not, here's how you can play with androgyny-

Valentine's Day Countdown # 2 - At the boyfriend's

Hey all,

If you're not doing a dinner or a movie date, or spending the day out together, you probably will have plans to just spend time indoors. You can't obviously dress up like a diva-off-the-red-carpet for him. What you can do, though, is pick one of these looks-

Froufrou Fun!
Colour-block in a vest and a high-waisted froufrou skirt combo. Team it up with flats to tone it down. No accessories needed, just carry an itsy bitsy cutesy sling to go.

Don't own a froufrou? Well, simply wear two or three flowy skirts of different lengths (shorter one over the longer one) on top of one another to make them look like one!

Shirt + Shorts
Pick a slightly oversized shirt, roll up the sleeves to 3/4th and tuck the shirt in. Ankle length socks and oxfords, delicate pieces like tiny studs and a wired ring, et voila!
Cut out tee + Denims
Get one or simply DIY it...takes as little as 5 minutes! Cut the neck of a grey tee into a boat and wear it such that it falls off one shoulder or make little cut-out designs all over the back. Team it up with a neon inner, preferable a haltered one. Opt for a tee that is one or two sizes bigger or one that is really loose and pair it up with skin fit denims or ones in a pencil fit. 

Until next time!

POTD # 13 - Floating in Blue

Hey all,

Today's POTD is a monotone look I spotted last evening. This lady sure knows how pull off casual chic!  The blue on blue adds a certain flow to the overall look while the strappy wedges add a spark of glam. And to finish the look, she had light blue liner on!

Shopped till I dropped!

Hello hello!

So Shopper's Stop has a sale on since a while and I finally got a chance to go make some purchase. Honestly, I came back with two bags less than what I would have. Buuut, that's only because I couldn't fit into/ carry some of the outfits too well. Ugh! I'm a pear, and evidently so :l

Getting back to the spree, I have three budget looks, two of which can pass off as work wear (pssst...even though I am wearing stretch denims).

Look 1: La belle dame

Picture this with coral wedges, a beige envelope and a statement cuff to complete the look.

Look 2: Nerdy chic

Dark pumps, a statement watch, and ofcourse, thick framed nerdy glasses would complete this look. Oh! And a satchel!

 

Look 3: Comfort queen!

I'd wan't to turn this look into a slightly androgenous one while it shouts comfort. Think cropped sleeveless denim shrug and flat boots that reach only the ankle. What say, you?

 

And byyy the way, for those who woke up late like me, the sale is still on. Only, tomorrow i.e. Sunday, is the last day. Those of you enjoying a lazy one, why not shop virtually! ;)

 

Until next time!
