It seems I've made a habit of being MIA these days! I promise, there's a very good reason for this bad behavior. However, sometimes I'm not comfortable sharing a few aspects of my life on a public platform. All I can say is, I'm extremely proud of myself at the moment! (Insert happy chicken dance here)

 So did you miss me? Didn't even notice I was gone huh? ;)

Onto the outfit, I took these pictures a few weeks ago for the blog, but somehow real life got in the way. My love for maxi-anything is no secret and this skirt was bought after much debate over the color with a rather reluctant friend (yes, I remember how much effort you took to convince me while I debated the advantages of buying ALL the colors). While the color turned out to be NOT what was mentioned on the box, I still think its kinda cool. Oh, and did I mention it has pleats?







I turned this shirt (Also worn here) into a croptop by simply tying it a little higher than normal and added the feather earrings for a boho vibe. Now that I seem to be stuck in various rooms for better parts of my day, this outfit just screams beach to me.

Okay. So there's a couple of versions of this day's color floating around, and I decided to follow this one, for purely selfish reason. Meaning, I wanted to wear my gorgeous peacock feather earrings. How cool are they? I got Oh so many compliments on these, so yay!!







I got this kurti (tunic) one of my spur of the moment shopping sprees and its such a cool material that washes quite well and looks amazing. I kept the look fairly simple as there's a lot of interesting design detail going on on the top itself and I didn't wanna steal the focus from the brilliant shade of the peacock feathers either.

Do you agree this is one of those pretty literal interpretations of the color for the day? Talk to me in the comments below. You can also talk to me on Twitter or Facebook! 

I have a very weird fashion sense. That's something I've heard quite a bit at Uni lately. I'm not sure how much of that is true. I find to extremely difficult to balance the expectations of Uni dressing with my own personal style. So today's outfit is what I typically wear to Uni. Simple tunic top, jeans, heels. This is one of the rare outfits I wasn't told was not normal. Oh well, normal is overrated, right. Right?

This tunic is a few seasons old Remanika and is a worn a lot on an everyday basis. However, it hasn't made its blog debut till now. I added these fabulous feather earrings to give it a little boho edge. The trousers are shiny and surprisingly thin (a definite plus in the current heat wave).






How do you live with limitations at Uni? Do you have any fall back outfits you tend to sport in cases of (sleep deprived) emergencies? Tell me about them in the comments below or on Twitter or Instagram.

Its been a few months since I started using Instagram. Oh, what a wonderful way to learn about good pictures! Initially, I wasn't sure if I could ever like a simplistic application such as this. I kept wondering what the fuss was about! Now, I seem to keep veering towards that little brown camera on my phone every free I get!

Also, it makes me realise that there are millions of  fabulous photographers all over the world! I seem to have started thinking about 'Instagram moments' ever since I got hooked. So I thought, it would be only appropriate that I share some of my top 'moments' from my short while on Instagram.






So those are a few of my favorites! I really do like all the new things I've been learning here. The best thing I've learnt from Instagram....
there's beauty in the most unexpected places, all you need to do is look for it.

I have been struggling with monsoon wear. Till now, I've always gone to college/university during monsoons and that means there are rules about what not to wear. And that eliminates everything other than jeans and maybe a full length skirt if your lucky. Last year, I was busy being a professor and that meant I was in Indian wear which was a bit of a plus since it does dry out easier than jeans. But this year, I don't have such problems which means I have freedom of dressing! So of course I'm being sensible and wearing dresses. And this little number that my sister sent me is the obvious choice. (Read about the other gifts I got here) A polyester blend that dries out in minutes and the perfect length to sport with a nice umbrella or a jacket.
