My last post was all about taking inspiration from the #LakmeSchoolofStyle and inspired by the masterclass taken by Nishka Lulla. While I wasn't planning to do a separate post on all the outfits styled in those posts, a few requests from the readers have prompted me to write detailed posts on each look. The first look I styled was a bohemian look.






This look is purely dominated by earthy tones. I styled a simple dress with ethnic prints with mainly wooden accessories. Bohemian is all about wearing seemingly clashing items and still making them all work together. I used to be a big fan of loud accessories a few years ago. (Anyone who knew me in my under grad days will attest to that!). Recently, I've started liking minimal looks with muted accessories, but I still like to indulge and wear my old accessories sometimes. I used an old wooden necklace as a bracelet and paired everything with my favorite jute bag. It was a present from Mom and Dad and I love the chevron style design.

• Choose outfits in earth tones and tan colors. Clothes with dispersed small prints in pastel colors also work well with this trend.
• Pair clashing trends without losing a cohesive overall theme in the look. That's what Bohemian is all about.
• Wooden or dull metal accessories work well to complement this look. Try wearing your wooden necklace as a headband to give yourself a cool boho vibe.
• Gladiators work well for summers. Tan galdiator sandles work well for any laid back outfit.
• Fringes give an instant boho vibe. Invest in a fringed bag or top to get the 70's vibe. 
• A maxi dress with a headband is a great way to channel the boho look without too much effort. 

This is part two to my round up of my top outfit picks from the year gone by. I remember vaguely that I spent a good part of these months worrying about my education. I worried about where I would end up, whether I made the right decisions with my life, and other such serious things. However, I also remember that all of this was finally settled and by the first of August, I was spend all my days in Uni trying to catch up with all the deadlines that were back in my life with a bang.

So I didn't have even a single post up in May (Haw! Bad blogger!) since I was literally running round the country trying to get into the Uni of my choice. But I did manage to compensate for that but posting all the long overdue Lakme Fashion Week posts in June. (Weren't those fun!) Come July and August, I got serious about blogging. It was extremely hard to pick my favorites (especially from August) but here are a few highlights.
