Chiconomical

By now everyone and their mothers have a variation of these geek glasses. While I'm always on a hunt for bigger glasses, the last few weeks have made good glasses a necessity. So when my brother offered to give me anything for Raksha Bandhan(yay!! cue bed jumping joy!), I jumped on the chance to get a new pair of peepers! First off, THANKS a million bro!! They've made long hours in the lab much more bearable (read now changed to various states of sleep deprived, minus the creepy red eyes).








The other new bit is the twirly skirt. When I laid hands on my Jabong shopping goodies (read my shopping review here) one look at this skirt and I knew it was going to be a geek chic outfit. I feel this look could be excellent for a casual date lunch(also where I casually show off how nerdy I truly am!). I added a bit of color to the outfit with my new blingy blue bag that was gifted by my cousin when she came down to India. The skirt is a perfect blend of flirty and feminine and can be worn in many different ways. Overall, a very versatile piece to have in your closet.

Hello everyone! Happy Makar Sankrant! Today was the awesome Kite flying festival!! How did you spend your day? Mine was spent with family and food and flying kites. Well, more food if I'm brutally honest. We've had a little winter chill this week but today's outfit is actually something I wore last week. I managed to bump my leg a week back while dancing to a particularly crazy countdown on VH1 and then promptly stubbed my toe while trying to fix my foot. Yay!

This basically meant I couldn't wear anything that clung to my skin too much. Thank god I bought myself a pair of palazzos on my birthday. These came in quite handy and, can I confess, made me wish I hurt myself everyday, if only to have an excuse to wear them! Well, okay, I don't really need an excuse to wear those, but Lordy Lord were they comfy. They have all the comfort of PJs without the public frowns. (yes lady with creepy eyes on the train, I dressed up to come out in public, but I still feel like I'm home snuggling in my comforter on the inside!)

This is how I went to Uni.

I put my hair in a french braid when I went to Uni and then let it loose when I went out for dinner in the evening. While I did get a few stares from people at Uni (palazzo pants aren't a part of the regular vocabulary there) I mainly ignored most of them after the first few people on the street. If you must buy something new, I strongly suggest you get yourself a pair. You won't regret it. They look quite fabulous and have that oh so walking on sunshine feeling.
