The current sports luxe trend that seems to have taken the fashion world by storm was always a favorite of mine. Only, back when I used to wear things like that, people took me for sloppy and silly instead of fashionable. Now though, thanks to all those wonderful people in fashion, I can wear my 'sporty' clothes and still get away with it, all in the name of 'fashion'.








These trousers have been a bone of content for most of my friends who think I should wear them as PJs. But come on, how can you resist wearing these gorgeous prints outside. The one time I wore these to Uni, I got lots of 'did you not get dressed today' comments, but I couldn't care less. When you feel like you're still in bed, who cares right?! This top was a random walk buy and I haven't worn it a lot except when I feel like I'm dying in the Mumbai heat. The strapless top makes me a little hesitant to wear it to Uni and since the 'coat' weather has already gone, I don't see it going to Uni a lot. Oh well, its still great for friend days.

Today' post is basically an ode to how much love I have for my new sunglasses. I've never really been a big fan of wayfarers. I always thought they made my face disappear but when I tried these folding ones from Ray-Ban, I KNEW I had found my match. I've been wearing them every single day since I got them, and can I say, I love them! Its an epic love affair.

I wore this to Uni today, and I got lots of compliments for how pretty the top was. Its old, gift from my cousin, and its got butterflies. However, I keep the look minimal since I wanted to have my wayfarers in focus!







I think its the hinges that make these fit just that slight bit more snug on my pea-sized face than the normal wayfarers. I had borrowed my friend's normal wayfarers once, and they just tipped forward and slid right of my face everytime I looked down. Apart from fabulous looks, these also block out a lot of light and have UV protection which means they actually do the work they're supposed to (aka, protecting my peepers) , unlike some sunglasses that simply look good but are quite worthless in their actual purpose. In my opinion, these are definite must-have for everyone! Oh, and since they're such a classic design they'll never go out of style!

Finally, let me tell you how brilliant they are in fitting into tiny spaces. Imagine a tiny clutch taken to brunch, well, these will fit quite nicely in that clutch, come with a small pouch for just that purpose, and also leave some space for all your other bits and bobs in the clutch (read phone, gloss, tissues, money). I can just see myself looking cooler than all those other ladies at brunch who have their glasses on their heads (secretly thinking they look cool but the fact is t they probably don't have anywhere else to keep it already). If you don't have them already, get them! They're a complete investment and will make your life that much cooler!

First off, Its my Birthday today!! Yay!! Happy birthday to mee!!
This post was supposed to be put up yesterday, but since I was too busy talking to people on the phone (yes, working weekdays aren't very good for celebrating birthdays) I couldn't post it. Oh well, this wasn't really my birthday outfit, but I'l post birthday pictures tomorrow. (Honestly, there aren't that many, but more on that tomorrow)



You've all seen this dress if your a regular reader of my blog. Its absolutely adorable! I've worn it so many different ways and I still always manage to find newer ways. Yay!! Big high fives to my dear cousin for sending it to me! I kept the look simple and clean with just a simple long necklace that I picked up while shopping for a friend. It makes me feel like I'm a character in Doctor Who, or an old Sherlock Holmes story.

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 seem to be on a vintage dressing kick lately. Almost every outfit these days tends to have atleast one vintage (read stolen from mum's or aunt's wardrobe) piece in it. Its no surprise then, that I've pulled out a very old dress of mine to re-invent. No, not really a DIY since I spend about 6-7 hrs at home these days(of which for about 5 I'm a dead asleep) and the rest at Uni. (Also the reason why the blog fails to be updated frequently these days).









This is my 'I work on the farm picking cherries and strawberries' look. Well, atleast in my head, that's the version of reality I'm living in. Even if what I'm actually doing is extremely tedious thesis research and drinking packaged berry juice. Everytime I look down though, I feel a little country, and that makes sitting at my work station bearable.

Some outfits don't require a lot of thinking. A simple outfit with a combination of lace and bright cropped trousers is the best way to tackle the current weather(please stop PMS-ing). Add a jacket if the weather gets chilly (how I wish this would happen) or face the rains bravely with your cropped trouser length. Adding a pair of heels makes it a bit more feminine and classy.

Its been less than 15 days since I started university and we've already got exams! I'm quite stressed out since its been a crazy couple of days with the family and now I need to study aswell!! I guess I should shop now to de-stress. (That's quite normal right?! No? )

Last week, I was a bit unwell (thank you hectic schedule and lack of sleep) and since the weather was a little cooler, I decided to transform my very summer dress (remember when I wore it here) into an early Autumn alternative. I added a little red jacket and kitten heel pumps (although you can't see them in the pictures as I now realise). Since its never overly hot in India, I skipped the customary black tights. All in all, a simple outfit to welcome the cooler days.

If your a regular reader of my blog, you'll know that I've started my Masters course a couple of weeks back and I've been a full-time student at Uni (dying under coursework now). So keeping this in mind, I thought it might be nice to do a little post on what I wear to uni. Keep in mind, that there are quite a few rules to be followed while dressing here (read no short skirts, shorts or tees). Add to this the fact that its been raining like there's no sun in the world for weeks now, I have been struggling with my wardrobe. (Cue thoughts on shopping).
