Today's outfit post is a Throwback to simpler times in my life. If that's not your cup of tea, I guess you could skip reading and go straight to the pictures. (Wait, you don't already do that do you?)

If I could turn back time, I would be listening to a little group called Aqua (does anyone remember them?) and the title is a reference to their song.

If I could turn back time, I'd be swimming with my mom on lazy afternoons, pushing and kicking to win in races with her in the pool.

If I could turn back time, you'd probably still find me in this two piece that I bought in order to look a little different, but never wore for its intended event.

I haven't really grown at all in many ways have I? I still think ice-cream is a perfectly sensible breakfast choice, I'm still very possessive about my books and hoard them like there's no tomorrow, I still swim every free chance I get, I act on impulse and get annoyed at the drop of a hat.... and I still wear the same clothes!!

I have a working holiday this week, so this post has got to be quick. Kaftans for me have always been associated with beach cover-ups, Goan shores, and evenings in the beach shack sipping iced tea. Wearing one for a casual day out never really crossed my mind till now. Here's my take on how to wear a kaftan when you're not on vacation.







The leggings I feel, add much needed color to the outfit. I added the chunky bangles and layered neckpiece to add a little boho. What do you think of wearing kaftans away from the beach? Talk to me in the comments below or contact me using the links in my Contacts section.  

You know those times when you have a song stuck in your head and you can't seem to get it out no matter what you try? Well, that's pretty much my whole life. I always have a song in my head. I've been known to hum songs even when I'm writing exams or giving interviews! Yes, life's just not the same unless you use your mind to provide background music right?
So with this song (which is very true at the moment in many ways) stuck in my head, I decided I might just wear red, maybe that would help me find a new tune. (I'l let you know when it works!) This skirt used to be a backless dress, that just didn't fit right. Hello tailor! Bye useless dress!




I added my black satchel bag (remember when I wore it here) and white statement ring while keeping the look fairly simple. I believe that red is such a statement in itself that you don't need to clutter it with add-ons. Overall, very happy with the way it turned out!

I've taken the plunge! Hello neon rockers club!! If your a regular reader (and thank you so much if you are!) then you know how my sister gifted me a River Island neon lace top! (You can read all about it here)
I had a feeling that this would be a bit too bright for India but after wearing it today, I've gotta tell u! Its empowering to wear something you know everyone's probably looking at but still feel comfortable in!

Oh, and yet another plus, today's pictures have been taken by my fabulous best friend (is there anything you can't do?!) who was nice enough to come over to take them! Virtual hug for u!! I decided to try out the top with minimal accessories(best avoid any lady gaga moments you know!) and did switch between two necklaces to see which looked better.
