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.

I've recently discovered Limeroad.Com! I'd heard about it in passing from other bloggers, followed them on Twitter and Facebook, but never really looked at all the site had to offer till today. I cannot tell you how excited I got today looking at all of the fun and beautiful stuff on their site today.

Now, lets talk bags! If you follow me on Twitter, you know how crazy I got when I started browsing through their GOSF (that's Great Online Shopping Festival for all of you who don't know) bag edit. So many brilliant choices, such afforadable and can I say extremely, tempting prices! I had about a dozen things in my cart by the time I was done 'browsing'. Ahem.

It was extremely difficult to narrow down my favorites, but here are my top five bag picks from Limeroad.com. These are just a few of my favorites and top of my wishlist this Christmas (Hey there St. Nick, you read blogs right?)

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.

What do you think about wearing maxi skirts for winter? Talk to me in the comments below. You can also join the conversation on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

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.

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!)

What are you wearing to combat the October heat? Are you from cooler climes? What are you wearing there? Talk to me in the comments below. You can also find me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. 

I'm a girl who doesn't own pink! Yep! There, I said it! I have been trying extra hard to figure out what to do for Pink October..and there's this thing I read about 'Wear Pink to Work' to show your solidarity to the cause. This had me racking my brains to figure out what 'Pink' I had. After a frantic plea to my cousin asking her to get me something in pink, I decided Mum might have something. Result, these pretty baby pink leggings!
But talking about Pink October, if you don't know what that is, its an initiative to raise awareness about Breast Cancer. You can visit an amazing site that talks all about it here.






I wore these to a casual evening out with the family. Its been extremely hot these days so the oversized white shirt was just the ticket. Looking back at the pictures though, I do realise that the red bag pops quite a bit more as compared to the baby pink. And speaking of this bag, it is quite special to me as its a gift from a very sweet friend. Thank you so much! I absolutely adore it!

What have you been doing for Pink October? Are you thinking in pink?

Yet another throwback post. My family is a big on beach outings. This was what I wore to a 'beach day' and then lunch at a restaurant with the family. I love lazy days like this, and right now, when I'm burdened with a million assignments that need to be completed before the end of this month, the post gives me hope for the future.








Little white dresses are the new LBDs. Okay, so I don't really think so to be honest. I however believe a nice white cotton dress works really well with the Mumbai weather. I didn't wear all the pearly goodies when we went to the beach though. I'm not that crazy. Also, my brother tends to think sand baths are a great way to bond...so...yea.
