Denim+Denim = more Denim!!!
Denim is the most commonly worn item in India. Walk down any street in my city, and your bound to spot atleast 3-4 people in various denim and denim-y variations. Of course, like any self respecting girl, I have a closet with a few dozen variations of denim jeans but this is my very first denim shirt. Okay, maybe not. Well...lets try that again, this is my very first denim shirt- bought by me! (remember the shopping haul from here)




I love the tie-n-dye effect of this shirt. Although I bought it off the street, its surprisingly good quality and is fast becoming a go to shirt in my closet. I tied it in a knot because I wanted to keep the look casual. Glasses because my eyes tend to reject my lenses out after 12 hour long days at the Uni. The spiked necklace is worn so much I'm shocked I don't have previous posts to link it to!

Cool girls wear coral. That's what I seem to be thinking these days. I've got a few coral pieces in my wardrobe, but these trousers are by far my favorite. They've been in my wardrobe for a few years now, and have been worn to death. The hem's a little ruined now, but I still wear them all the time!

Have you ever stood in front of your wardrobe, and said,
 'What if I wear this dress today?' then thought,
'But I just wore it last week (I blog now, so I can't even pretend otherwise, there's hard proof!).'
'Oh, but your not Richie Rich rich are you now? So obviously your going to repeat clothes! Duh!'
'Yes, but....'
'No buts, just put it on and get on with your life!'
'Oh awrite.....maybe I can add a few new accessories and make it look different?' (with a puppy face)
'Lol! Remember your finances, you spend most of it on 'education' and associated expenses now!' (crushed)
'Come on....it can't be that bad can it?'
'Lets see, the shoes, the food, the books, the new folders, the 'I can't walk to the train station in the rain' cabs, the expensive shampoo, ....'
'Those are basic necessities, you can't live without washing hair now can you, and I didn't wanna get drenched!'
'....and the little trip with friends, the train shopping, the new pencil case, the street shopping with three shirts...'
'Waiiit!!! That shirt, what if, I wear the striped shirt I got last month!'
'You could.... but the denims you wear it with are in the wash, most of the clothes need to be ironed, and your already running late!' (oops!)
'Well....what if....'

And that's basically how the conversation goes on and on and on. Today's outfit is a result of one of these monologues full of ifs and buts and maybes.







Of course I had no time to do my hair after all the intense debate, so my hair looks like a bush in all the pictures and I'm wearing my glasses since putting on lenses would make me even more late.(Why do I talk so much!?) What do you think of today's outfit? Talk to me in the comments below and let me know what you think and also if you have any such debates with yourself (or maybe I'm the only crazy one!).

Am I the only one who remembers The Addams Family? Remember those slightly creepy yet lovable oddballs that came to make us laugh with their scary ways? I used to watch pretty much all the cartoons on the toon channel back then, and today's outfit makes me think of Mortica Adams, the 'lady' of the family.

This skirt was a hand-me-down from a friend who bought it on a whim and couldn't fit into later. The top is my beach top and this whole outfit was basically an intelligent way to hide my ugly legs (no time to visit the beauty shop you see) and go to the beach for a quick evening stroll.

Flowers on my clothes always seem to remind me of flowy curtains or motherly bedsheets. I've never been a big fan of them on my clothes. The fact that I even bought a pair of shorts that had flowers on them is surprising to me. Frankly, I couldn't resist how soft and comfy they looked and since I was stocking up for summer in the midst of a surprising cold spell, I guess it was a case of wishful thinking.

Boy am I glad I bought these! They've filled a major void in my wardrobe. They're printed, a decent length, comfy, fitted, oh, and they're from Asos. I wear them all the time when I'm home and they've been through the washer a few times already, without any damage to the print. Definite plus for me!

I love wearing simple outfits with a bit of oomph. A jeans and t-shirt combo can be lifted to newer heights by simply adding an element of interest such as a pretty necklace, or belt or statement bag. In my opinion, you don't need to do a complete overhaul of your wardrobe to remain fresh each season.

I wore this typical tee and jeans combo to college today, and let me tell you, just adding a statement necklace meant that my outfit was the talk of the town (erm...okay, maybe just my class). I was even told the necklace made me look like I was wearing some Egyptian lady! Lol!!

In case you don't know, I'm an only child. I don't have any siblings, and while I have loads of cousins who visit from time to time I've always felt a lack of elder siblings. I always envied those friends of mine with their stories of overprotective elder brothers, fashion obsessed sisters and those little brother-sister things that happen everyday.

So I have a 'brother' who isn't really related to me in the conventional sense, but is definitely my brother all the same.Its as if the universe linked the two of us and I have to say, he's filled a void in my life! We met this weekend to celebrate Raksha Bandhan (remember I spoke about it here) and it was such an amazing day! He was even sporting enough to take pictures for the blog!!

Red is one of those colours that never goes out of style. Its also one of the colors in my closet that instantly makes me feel more confident. So when I was hunting for a new way to wear this skirt (remember I'd worn it here) I figured, why not wear all red? Now I've always secretly imagined what it would feel like to wear a red gown and strut down a red carpet, a la Rihanna at the Grammys but I don't think I'm quite there yet. I mean, its not okay to wear a beautiful gown and then chicken out, stay at home, watch the award shows and eat ice-cream right? Right?

Anyway, back to my outfit, this is just a little experiment in trying to find a better way to wear my skirt. This top is a actually something I bought as beachwear and haven't been able to wear all that much simply because I feel its too boho for regular wear. However, with this skirt, its quite nice and feels more polished! Score one for me!

Can you believe it? This is my 100th post! I'm so happy I've been this consistent (more so in recent times I'l admit) and even did a little celebration with a bite-sized cupcake(Great bakery on my way home, but more on that later). No pictures of it though, it was too tempting to wait for a picture moment.

So what am I going to show you guys for my 100th blogpost? Well, as we've finally seen the sun come back with a vengeance this week, a nice little summer playsuit! Honestly, everyday I feel like I've sweat about two kilos by the time I reach Uni in the morning! So this is something I can't wait to slip into and dream about on my way back home.
