So its Halloween. While I have no time to celebrate anything other than tests getting over, I decided if I couldn't go and celebrate I could atleast have a little Halloween feeling at home (Its awrite to wear pretty clothes and study at home right?). This is the most 'angelic' dress that I own. While I don't have angel wings and a halo, not to mention time to take loads of outfit pictures, its still a pretty cool dress innit? Promise I'l style it much better next time!

Hello middle of the week. I can't believe how crazy its been lately. It seems that this week doesn't wanna end anytime soon. I'm seriously sleep deprived and still have a long way to go before I can celebrate the long weekend.

No, I'm not really going to go all technical on you and start talking about efficient algorithms and implementations. I have enough of that in Uni and this is my happy place! I just can't seem to shake off the 'lingo' we use all day, hence the title.

Engineers tend to make up big words and titles to sound all intelligent, when all that means is using your limited clothes to your best advantage. So here's my take on wardrobe optimization. Remember my gorgeous butterfly dress? Well, I just realized that every time I wear it, I seem to do something different with it. So here's the same dress..worn three ways.

Till last month, I used to love Monday mornings. It was the only day of the week when I could reach Uni a bit late and sleep a little more. This Monday wasn't like that. I have be up since about 5.30 and have been on my feet the whole day. Not to mention I need to study for a dozen tests and time seems to fly.
So what do you wear on days like these? Why comfort clothing of course!







This is my lets get ready while trying to study outfit. Throw on a baggy shirt with a pair of pretty coral leggings. Hair piled up in a messy knot since there's no time to comb it and add oversized earrings to complete the look. While its nothing out of the ordinary, its something I stand by. Fashion doesn't need to always been perfect right? Sometimes, chucking things on still makes them look pretty (well, unless you chuck on a pair of mismatched socks...those never seem to get trendy no matter how much I try!)

PS: Is anyone a fan of the Bangles song my post is named after?! Its such an amazing song that reflects monday blues perfectly no?

If you've met me in the last few weeks, I've probably complained about the heat to you...quite a bit....like every 5 seconds. Maybe its just me, but it seems that every time I have a second to relax, I can't even breath because the heat is killing me softly. (Can that happen? Sure feels like it!)









I absolutely love these Asos shorts! They're cotton, perfect fit (although my recent weight loss means I can't wear them without a belt anymore) and a real life saver on hot summer days. I added this bright blue jacket that my mum made when she was learning how to sew. (umm....when she was about 10-12 years old!) Overall, lovely little outfit that I wore when me and mum went to get a few groceries.

Prints are really big this season. Well, in my wardrobe atleast. I remember a conversation with my cousin round about the time I started this blog where she was asking me to get some prints in my life. Yes, my wardrobe consists mostly of block colored outfits that I like to layer with crazy accessories. She on the other hand is a big fan of prints and is one of the key reasons why I'm playing with prints now.

I've had a massively crazy week! With tests, conferences, deadlines and presentations, you name it, I've been rushing to do it! Now I'm not one of those lets wear a shirt because its a formal occasion girl. So this got me thinking on what I could wear that would be me and still be acceptable in the college circumstances. As you know I tend to keep it simple (well, unless its accessories!) so this outfit is my take on college dressing which is very travel appropriate(I do spend half my life travelling you know!).








Simple printed top, with tailored trousers. You can add a fitted blazer to make it more 'workwear'. Since the temperature has been hitting the 30s this week, no blazer for me! I know, nothing extraordinary. What can I say, its been a wear classic combinations kinda week!

PS: In case you're wondering why I have funny squint eyes in most of the pictures from this week, I've got a mild eye infection. Sorry about that. Promise you, there will be better pics next week! Have a nice weekend! 

Have you been sweating like crazy lately?! I sure have! October heat has arrived! Okay, its more like almost gone, but this past week is when I've really started feeling October. Bringing in heat from all directions, Uni, Home and the very literal sense, its making me wish for cooler 'Autumn/Winter' or what passes as winter in Mumbai.










This outfit is a marriage of practicality and wishful thinking. I wore my fabulous Globus leather skirt (this is so cool, wish they'd bring back more stock) with a simply casual cotton tee. I added a little belt for a more structured look. (Yep, I've lost a little weight which means the skirt almost slips down without a belt!)
