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.

Red is one of those colours that never goes out of style. Its also one of the colors in my closet that instantly makes me feel more confident. So when I was hunting for a new way to wear this skirt (remember I'd worn it here) I figured, why not wear all red? Now I've always secretly imagined what it would feel like to wear a red gown and strut down a red carpet, a la Rihanna at the Grammys but I don't think I'm quite there yet. I mean, its not okay to wear a beautiful gown and then chicken out, stay at home, watch the award shows and eat ice-cream right? Right?

Anyway, back to my outfit, this is just a little experiment in trying to find a better way to wear my skirt. This top is a actually something I bought as beachwear and haven't been able to wear all that much simply because I feel its too boho for regular wear. However, with this skirt, its quite nice and feels more polished! Score one for me!

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.







Do you wear summer dresses in autumn using layers? How do you style them? Talk to me in the comments below or in the various ways you can find in my Contacts section. 

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).







What do you usually wear to Uni? Do you have any rules you need to follow when dressing there? Tell me all about it in the comments below or talk to me on Twitter. You can also follow me on Instagram, Pinterest and Bloglovin.

I have been leaning towards blue a lot lately. I seem to add atleast one piece of "blue" to my daily outfit to feel complete. On the other hand, mint is something I've been lusting after. I desperately want a few pieces in mint for my wardrobe. Especially after seeing the fabulous Jessica Quirk of What I Wore rocking it in various forms of minty goodness. But since the rains have been hampering me from venturing out onto the streets to hunt for mint, I've been shopping my wardrobe to satiate my mint needs. Result is this little jacket I found at the back of my closet, just screaming for a little love.

I've got a few friends who've gone to the States to pursue higher education. One of them recently asked me what she should wear for the Independence day celebrations. Now, first of, I was quite flattered because it made me feel like a cool fashionista offering her advice. Secondly, the whole discussion made me feel like dressing up so this post is my take on the red, white and blue trend that always crops up around this time.
I paired a nautical skirt with a simple white silk blouse and added a little bit of red with my belt. Simple and functional!
