A VERY BEAUTIFUL COMBINATION FOR AN EVENING OUT IN WINTERS IS WEARING BLACK AND WHITE. IT HAS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF DRAMA. ALSO, IT IS EASY TO ACCESSORIZE.
ANKLE LENGTH BOOTS, BLAZER FROM PIERRE CARDIN AND A BLACK KNEE LENGTH DRESS FROM SINGAPORE. MY OVERSIZED BLACK CLUTCH IS FROM VAN HEUSEN. I AM WEARING ANKLE LENGTH BLACK BOOTS.
A STRING OF DIAMONDS…A GIFT FROM MY HUSBAND.
MY FAVORITE PEARL RING…
AND THE FLOWER DIAMOND EARRINGS.
I LOVE THIS LOOK, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
ENJOY!
I love monochrome. But going all out may look a little drab. The best way to spice it up is by way of accessories.
Here I am wearing an all black outfit which I have accessorized with a multicolored stone necklace. It adds enough glamour to shift from a day look to an image makeover for an evening out.
This is easy fashion!
Hope you liked the look.
ENJOY!!!
An all black outfit never fails. To add more drama to an all black outfit, what better than a colored pashmina stole.
I am wearing a black wool coat( from Hong Kong), black midi dress, black skinnies and a green blue pashmina stole.
This look is super chic and super warm.
It is also slimming and a good smart option for women my age….in their 40’S.
A black midi dress and black skinnies are a must for a winter capsule wardrobe.
ENJOY!
Florals are not always about summer. Depending on the fabric, you can wear florals in any weather.
Here I am wearing a formal long crepe floral kurta with a shimmery motif.I have paired it with formal silk trousers.
I am wearing a pearl and silver necklace for added glamour.
ENJOY!
I am a great fan of long shrugs. Especially, ultralong ones are a boon for a slimming effect.
Here, I am wearing a long multicolored Rajasthani Kurta, with black palazzos and a sleeveless lycra black shrug. This is a typical fusion wear. I love this shrug, as it has come to my rescue a number of times ,when I need a flattering silhouette
The long multicolored kurta gives a nice break to the black outfit.
The light layering is enough for the slight chill.
I have accessorized very less in this outfit, as the colors of the kurta stand out.
Nude ballerinas are perfect for this attire.
A great outfit for women who don’t want to let go of their ethnic wear.
ENJOY!

Hi folks ! Winter time is all about wrapping yourself in layers. What better than a scarf. I have already talked about adding drama by wearing black and white. I am a huge fan of this combination, as it adds a lot of drama instantly. Here is my favorite black and white scarf. It can be worn with an all black outfit.
Bright lips and nails complete the look.
ENJOY!
Everyone by now must have figured out what suits you. So the basic must haves in your wardrobe don’t have to be common to all. Wear what you want with ease and confidence and lo behold you are there.
The first must have is something that flatters your figure. Anything that fits you perfectly is a must have.
SUMMER ESSENTIALS
The most common must haves are: a black dress, tailored black and white trousers, great fitting denims, a nice white shirt , a black shirt, a dress in a color other than black or white that suits you. Remember how to know which color suits you? The one that fetches you the maximum compliments and brings out the shine in your eyes and skin. The mirror tells it all. Add to all this a nice stole in a rich material. A pair each of comfortable heels and flats in nude are a must.
For an Indian wardrobe you need to have a nice black sari in silk and a summer material like georgette or chiffon, a statement blouse in gold, golden and silver slippers, a long white chikan kurta and black and white tights.
WINTER MUST HAVES
A short black coat, a long black coat, a trench, black boots, nude ballerinas a rich woollen muffler , black tights are the basics youyou require for the winter. Again refer to my blog on winter layering.
ACCESSORIZE
And of course the accessories! You can actually stand out if you accessorize right.
Always have a nice classy clutch in a neutral color like silver or gold. That adds enough bling to an otherwise dull outfit. Also another must have is a nice big spacious tote for work and fun.
Real or fake solitaires, diamante bangles and a smart neckpiece are also a must.
It is worthwhile to invest in a rich creamy lipstick in two shades…a nice red and a nude beige. Always take care to to do some research and find out what shade of red suits you. Is it Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Color in Red Carpet or Mac Cosmetics Lipstick in Russian Red, maccosmetics.com

Nude lips are the latest trend and to get a perfect nude is a challenge. Some of my favorite nudes are Loreal Color Riche Lipstick 456 in Beige Cream and Bronx from Colorbar.
More on lipshades later.
Lastly invest in a trendy pair of glares. It is worthwhile to invest in a timeless piece as it does last for a long time.

Wrap it off with a statement watch and you are good to go!
So girls work on your must haves and you sure will rock the seasons…not to forget that what fits well always looks good.
So five posts down the line I am trying to review my work. Not many suggestions, a few likes later I am thinking about how to share my self learnt fashion tricks on my blog. My small fashion tips have helped my friends and children to stand out in a crowd. So here is an attempt to benefit a larger group. My next posts shall continue to help women to bring out the best in themselves . I would appreciate more comments to enable me to serve you better.
In the end I would like to reiterate the importance of confidence in yourself as the ultimate fashion accessory. That along with a beautiful smile and high self esteem would have you conquering the world.
So kudos to a beautiful you!
Now that is one hell of a question! And the answer is of course STANDING OUT WHILE BLENDING IN. Yes you got me right. It should never look as if you have tried too hard and still something in your persona should make you look different from others. Though it is obvious that it is ones own personality that shines through, in today’s world we can also take help from clothes, makeup and accessories to bring out the best in you.
Today we talk about the sensible play of color in your attire.
First you should know which color suits you. It is not essential that a particular color suits your friend it will suit you too. So the first the basics…black and white are two colors that are truly beautiful! Black is slimming and can be worn both as an upper or lower, as a result help in adding a slimming effect to broader upper torso or heavy thighs. White on the other hand is royal and classy but should generally be worn with a contrasting darker shade.
Next step is to determine which color suits you.
Assess what you already own. Go through your closet and pick out your favorite kurtas, tops jeans etc. or the pieces that usually get you some compliments. Ask yourself what it is about these outfits that you like so much (or what it is that other people like so much). Take note of the colors of the outfits that get you maximum looks.. It may be these colors that end up looking the best on you.
Ask your family. Family usually knows best. They don’t judge you and give a true opinion. Ask your sister or mother to tell you which color suits you the most. Take them along with you to a clothes store. Try out different outfits and take their opinion.
Ask the mirror. You are your best critic. The colors that are “your colors” will be the ones that brighten your skin tone and bring out the shine in your hair and light up your eyes.
We have either warm or cool hues of our skin. Broadly putting it yellow skin toned people look best in beiges, browns, orange, rust ,reds and creamy whites. While pink skin toned individuals are the cool hued people who look good in pinks, purple, lilac and milky whites.

Accessorize with color.
Color doesn’t have to be just on the clothing you wear, but you also can accessorize with color. Your purse can be of a bright pop color in an otherwise dull outfit. Similarly a bright scarf,bag necklace and even your shoes are fun to play with when it comes to color. However, I recommend toning down the color of your shoe if you have a bright outfit on. When in doubt go for nude shoes. They never go wrong. Don’t overdo color. A statement neckpiece in the new neon range instantly spruces up a dull outfit.

Even red lips are a great accessory to flaunt to pep up a dull outfit.
Above are some accessories that can help to glam you up in a subtle way.
Colored bottoms.
Most of us stick to blacks or whites in Indian wear as regards lowers and to denims in western wear. But why restrict. You can multiply your options if you are ready to experiment with colored bottoms. Brighter lowers have to be complemented with tops in sober colors. One cannot wear both separates in bright contrasting colors. That way you can end up looking like a Christmas tree.
