I love being an Indian!

From today the preparations for Ganapti have started. All the Hustle and bustle, the décor, the food and the amazing family get-togethers all this has a great aura and charm to it. Though I love my own personal space and place but on such occasions once a year, you really can experience your Indian roots and tradition.

Our otherwise nuclear family becomes this whole huge family with different characters and natures who don’t generally meet a lot during the other time of the year. But during these festivals, its like we all were living in the same house happily forever. Also after the one and half day’s visarjan, we all chill together in the night talking ordering in a subways or pizza like a normal weekend family night.  Only in India, we have modernization and tradition where you can enjoy the best of both. A country where disco and aartis exist simultaneously, as well as pizzas and modak both equally yum!

This year, I finally managed to wear a sari and make modak simultaneously!! I wore an sari I got from Udaipur with an necklace set from the shops in the Udaipur City palace.

What To Wear: Week 3

“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself” by the fabulous Coco Chanel. Yes, I have started to get obsessed with her quotes. She defines fashion in the most realistic way and without making it sound made-up or plastic.

Well, this week impressed a lot by this post here the outfits for the week!

Outfit 1: To start the week, a simple look with khaki pants and a solid coloured top! Sober yet making a statement but the most comfy outfit to beat the weekend hangover. So can also substitute the khaki pants for cotton palazzos or harem pants plain or printed!

Outfit 2: For the tumultuous Tuesday, a formal look. This look always makes you look more knowledgeable and like a diva. Goes well for office goers as well as college girls (makes you professor think you are very serious about studies and your future). If you work in a more chilled office, you can also pull off high waist printed pants and a funkier necklace.

Outfit 3: Cool causal and calmer outfit for the mid-week. A simple printed or stripped dress with a cool quirky off shoulder top does the charm!

Outfit 4: With the Ganapati festival around the corner, this week needs few Indian outfits at stand-by. A simple kurti in reds,greens,yellows with blue denims is a perfect solution when you raid your  friends houses for the yummy Modaks!

Outfit 5: Also if you can wear and handle yourself, there is nothing more elegant and stylish than our Indian saris. A simple cotton or silk, printed or plain adds a beautiful grace and charm to your Indian beauty.

Outfit 6: Jackets, a paisley or heavy work Indian style or prints is the best one if you cant or don’t have any kurtis or saris. Wear such jackets on your regular solid tops and immediately your look changes.

Outfit 7: A block printed cotton dress, a simple dress that enhances your natural beauty with its subtle radiance and charisma. Personally my favorite brand for such type of dresses is ‘Anokhi’.

What To Wear: Week 2

"Everyday is a fashion show and the world is your runway" as said by Coco Chanel, which is quite a true. Everyday dress like it's like it's your last :P. Here a lookbook week 2 to help dress quicker!


Outfit 1: A simple long dress for the hot sunny days! Personally I love the cotton ikat printed or block printed dress, which is like a combination of an Indian and modern! It gives a modern contemporary look to Indian arts.

Outfit 2: Printed pants with a solid pants is always a great way the safest option! Add up some bling and the outfit can work for the day or at a party night too!

Outfit 3: A black top and pants a classic look, with maybe a printed shirt to throw over or a plain shirt! Even a colourful scarf works great with a full black look!

Outfit 4: A colourful long skirt makes a good statement. Also very comfortable for a humid summer days!

Outfit 5: A simple shirt or top with a similar pant but to add a little oomph pull over a scarf or stole which makes a simple look go from classy to funky! Even a bold solid colour scarf does the trick!

Outfit 6:  Indian kurtis always have a different kind of beauty and elegance to them. Wear them solo or with an equally beautiful jacket or dupatta makes it a pretty outfit almost for every occasion.

Outfit 7: A printed off-shoulder top with a plain pants is kinda the best outfit for college or the beach! Off-shoulder tops are great kinda shirts for healthier girls as it gives a slimmer look.

What To Wear: Week 1

Fashion is an art. Fashion is a statement of personal expression. French fashion designer Coco Chanel once said, Fashion keeps changing but style endures. A person’s style truly comes out when one is comfortable and happy in their clothes. Style is relatable to the flair of a person. But in the busy life we live these days, we sometimes need a guidance to keep our flair intact. A lookbook helping you dress little quicker and with style. Hope it can help you too!

Outfit 1:

For the first day of the week, a little formal looking outfit. With a semi-formal or formal shirt, loosely tucked in the pants. For pants either formal trousers or black or dark blue denim giving you a comfy feel and classy look! You also add some chunky jewellery to glam up your outfit!

Outfit 2:

A simple solid coloured dress with a nice belt to give a classy but charismatic look. Try finding a dress in pastel colours which give delicate look and accessories with pearls. Also go for funky colours that helps add colour to a boring Tuesday!

Outfit 3:

A mid-week time calls for something with some layers! A pretty and nice shrug or jacket of lace , etc.,  with a tube or t back and you all dressed up for mid week happy hours!

Outfit 4:

Colours colours colours all around us, which can make or break our mood. So why not add some vibrancy to our outfits. Vibrant Thursday is called for. A nice tribal printed or tie-dyed skirt with a solid but bright jacket is the way to go! And it can be vice-versa.

Outfit 5:

The commencement of the weekend is here. Also is the causal Friday! A nice comfy long sweater or, for Mumbai weather a long top with skinny jeans and a nice scarf or a long necklace is the way to kickoff the weekend.

Outfit 6:

A party outfit is needed at least once a week. Glittery anything is the best kind of glam you can pull off to go along with all the lights of the nightlife. Either go for a glitter top or pants or dress and you are good to go! But also I would suggest adding a little neutral shade like black, white or grey to balance your look! Neutral colours don’t make the outfit look too flashy but gives a more alluring look!

Outfit 7:

A quiet relaxing day after a hectic week, catching up with bestie or family needs an elegant but fresh look! A nice white shirt, pastel or light shade colour with a bright yellow or green, etc., skirt to make you look all ready for Sunday brunching and munching. Also not hesitate to take some nice bag or earrings to make a statement.
