Lockdown… yet again

lockdown

I spend time with myself

…yet again

siesta

midday siesta

I slowly drift into

my childhood

perfect picture

the camera tries

for my perfect picture …but

it captures the truth

first rain… haiku

first rain

lovers caught unawares

without an umbrella

sleepless

is it your face

or the super flower moon-the reason

of my sleepless nights

you only live once

stuck in the pandemic

spending time with loved ones

you only live once

winter …

cold bare trees

sitting huddled together

a pair of pigeons

Long shrug.

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!

Long Kurta with Animal Print

I am a huge fan of traditional wear but I love a slight twist. Today I am wearing a long yellowish beige kurta with an animal print patching on the neckline and on the hemline.

I have paired it with a simple silver hasli and diamond earrings.
To beat the chill I have picked up a black shrug.
Beige  ballet flats complete the look.
The key is not to go OTT and let the animal print stand out.

This is a nice outfit for fall. It is traditional yet has a contemporary touch to it.

ENJOY!
