I love finding new ways to wear old things in my wardrobe. There's something exhilarating about seeing something you always wear, then seeing it in a whole different light. Its almost like getting a new outfit without shopping! Score! Today's outfit is exactly that. Old wardrobe basic, worn in a classic way using a little imagination.







This dress! Are you wondering why you don't know about it? Well, its my mum's skirt. Its black, midi length, and pleated. This could very well be one of my dream skirts. However, thanks to my recent weight loss, it just didn't fit right and so I decided, hey, no reason to get sad, lets turn it into a dress. One belt and a little pleat adjustment later, Hello LBD!!

After a long time, I seem to be posting a sneak peek post. Thanks to finals week coming up, I can't seem to have time to edit all the posts! So, here, a sneak peek into tomorrow's post.

I've been noticing a lot of 'sports glam' looks on the blogosphere lately. Now I am in no way a glam girl. I believe in wearing the right gear for sports. No running around in shorts outifts at sub-zero temperatures for me(a la Hindi movie style), thank you very much!

Let me clear the air off the bat that today's look is simply a coincidence. I couldn't be bothered with clearing the mess that is my wardrobe at the moment and simply decided to wear my ancient tee with 'the' skirt so that I can look passable for a meet with a friend, and not like I just rolled out of bed!(which may or may not be true, I maintain my no comment stance!)







This t-shirt has been around forever, and I have worn it a million times already!(Not even sure if I'm exaggerating at this point!) The skirt, oh, you've all seen it before. No? Well you can refresh your memories here and here! I added a cap because it made the outfit look sporty!(see, I'm soo on trend!) Okay, I'l be honest, I added it coz I was having a bad hair day! There, I said it! Oh, and while we're on the not so happy thoughts subject, I've even lost weight, so my skirt refuses to stay on right without a belt. Y.A.Y.

Plaid is synonymous with winters. When mom and I went shopping last month, I saw this scarf and looking at the price tag, I couldn't resist. I love how the color makes it look a little different from the regular plaid scarfs, and its come quite handy in the winter mornings while travelling to college and also for making a fashion statement.









Today's pictures were taken in a particularly crazy mood. So I did a couple of silly things with the scarf. I think that a scarf is the most versatile piece of clothing anyone can have, and can instantly make a huge difference to any regular outfit.

I have started to feel like its winter. This is a very good thing in my book, because that means I get to wear some of my 'winter' clothes that have been feeling a little lonely. Oh, and since I'm now on my official study break, this means I get to dress in clothes not restricted by Uni regulations. Erm....for the next four days atleast.








This black skirt is made of a fairly heavy fabric which makes it perfect for cool evenings. This jumper is, no surprise for guessing, mom's and yet another from her seemingly never-ending collection of cool clothes that are practically vintage now! Overall, this look makes me feel like something a school teacher in the West would wear.

Mixing prints. Remember those days when I swore i couldn't do it? That prints would drown me if I wore more than one? Well, guess what, once I started (remember this?) I just can't seem to stop!










Continuing in the tradition of winter called 'layering', I paired my leopard print bat-wing blouse, with my peacock feather dress (remember this post). I pretended that I was a new species called the leopard bird, and well, the bat-wing sleeves flapping in the wind meant I could also pretend I was flying. W.I.N! All in all, absolutely love this! Definitely something I'l wear again.

This weekend was supposed to be about serious studying. Instead, it turned out to be a crazy cousins weekend. I spent it taking long walks on the beach, well..it was more like running with my brother playing tag, having lunch with cousins, playing with my sister's lil girl and oh, a little bit of studying thrown in. So are you excited to see what I wore?








This dress is an item that featured ages ago on my blog. Remember this my first few readers?? I recently did a wardrobe messup (okay, it may have puked a few dozen clothes, and I may have stuffed them inside like our local trains). Result, this dress came up to the front and I just couldn't resist wearing it to the beach. Since my brother decided we should have a sand fight (yep, that's throwing sand on each other and running, lots of running), I tied my hair in a messy bun. All in all, a look I'm totally in love with!
