Mondays making me moody and wishing the weekend was back. The dark clouds seem to be slowly rolling in and I think the monsoons aren't all the far. This is exactly why I decided we all needed a bit of bright summer inspiration. Of course, there isn't anything that says summer like bright colors! Today's look is for all the free spirits out there who simply don't care that the world is staring and wear what their heart desires.


A tasseled or pom poms top is something that's seen almost at every corner right now. This top is absolutely amazing and while I got mine in Sugarbox last month, you can actually find this tasseled off shoulder top at almost any street store. I decided to go bold with this look and pair it with my orange cotton skirt. This skirt was a street find and has seen me through summers and winters alike. I decided to add a scarf as a headband to complete the look. This something I actually wore on the way to the location and then from after too and while there were my fair share of stares on the way, outfits like this completely define my personal style. While I know you'll probably shy away from wearing blacks and brights in the summer, I'd say its something you must try! Think free spirit and colors that make you smile..

Hello Tuesday! It's yet another Tuesday and you know what that means! I've gone out and found three ways to wear something awesome. In case you've been thinking of investing in a piece that you just don't think you can get the best cost per wear out of, I've got you covered. While last week, I spoke about how to wear a white jumpsuit in three different ways, today I'm tackling its sometimes trickier cousin, the playsuit. A playsuit is what I'd define as the risque cousin of the more demure jumpsuit and is usually characterised by a mid thigh length and sometimes a much more forgiving fit. I decided to style this playsuit that's got an almost fairytale feel with its pastel blue color and ruffles three different ways. No, Koovs doesn't sponsor any of my wardrobe or posts although I sometimes wish they did! Anyway, onto the three simple, quick and unique ways to style this ruffled playsuit. Mind you, these tricks work well with almost any old playsuit you may have lying in your cupboard.



Candy Floss Gypsy

Summers almost always make me want to bring out the bright colors. This candy floss skirt was a street find that made my eyes hurt and that's just how I decided to buy it. The pop pink neon is such a cool color I almost wish I was popping a bubble gum while wearing this!


I layered my powder blue playsuit with this bright maxi skirt and added a few bohemian accessories to complete the look. The bag compliments and ties everything together too!

Classic Brunching

The simplest way to wear an outfit is by not adding any extra frills to it and letting it speak for itself. Since this playsuit has such a great style, I decided to wear it just the way it is with just a few pieces added to complete the look.


The necklace that I'm wearing is actually a pair of bowties (you may have seen me sporting it in this post) that I bought in the Quirk Box sale and decided to thread through an old broken necklace to make my very own new one! Adding a pair of flats and I'm all ready to walk into a sunday brunch in style!

Sweet Punk Rocker

Okay, this is the look I'm most excited about! If you're a girl who loves her frills as much as her boots then this look is for you.

For this look, I simply added a cropped black tshirt on top and topped off the look with a pair of ankle boots. You guys, this is one of my favorite looks and honestly, I love how unique and different it looks compared to the rest of the three looks!

I hope these looks have given you some outfit inspiration and help you find your own unique ways to wear something you already own.

One thing that I love about working in Indian offices is the ability to fuse together Indian and workwear and create something that's really unique. While the last workwear outfit was about wearing Indian's clothes to work, today's outfit is a fusion of Indian sensibilities with western silhouettes that make it a real standout in terms of what you can wear to the office.

Kurtis are what every girl seems to wear to office, sometimes even as much as 3-4 days a week. However, a side slit shirt dress is a welcome change and while it's really a kurti in disguise, you can wear it a few different ways and still have a new, interesting outfit each time.
