The small floral buttons on the kurta are delightful.
It has been a task always to add variety to my winter wear.
Here I am wearing a long silk kurta, with paisley print. The brown color gives a nice change from black and greys. On top , i am wearing a long brown sweater with collars. The richness of silk adds sophistication. There is not much need of accessories, if the material is nice.
The kurta has collars which I have buttoned up.
A nice comfortable wear for work.
Enjoy!
Wearing checks in winter is a must for me. It adds nice variety to the daily monotony of wearing black.
Here I am wearing a grey black check collared dress with tights and a wool blend sweater in steel grey.
I have a black pashmina stole knotted around my neck. This is winter capsule wardrobe essential.
The look is smart and super comfortable. It needs very few accessories and is quite good for wearing to work.
Make sure to wear a slightly bright lip color.
ENJOY!
Hi there! It is that time of the year again when the chill sets in. Now I am a great lover of a longish silhouette. But in winters you need to keep warm also. So how do I pair my dresses with pants?
This was a look for the youngsters.
For my age here it is…

Pairing dresses with tights is also a smart option. Try and go for shoes in the same color as the pant or you can wear nude shoes too.
The safest option is to wear black pants or leggings with black boots. This gives an impression of length.
Add a scarf for warmth.
The best part of this look is that it hides flab and is super comfy.
I hope to rock this look this winter.
ENJOY!
Yess…for me this is true. I am huge fan of this color. I also mix blue with black for an interesting look.
I wear longish outfits, as they are slimming and suit my age.
Here, I am wearing a blue kurta with black palazzos, and a navy blue long fine knit sweater. (sorry for the bad picture quality…working towards it!)
I have accessorized it with a silver necklace with Lapis Lazuli beads, that I got from Jaipur.
Wore this to an evening at a winter carnival .
To take care of the walking, wore nude flats
.
ENJOY!
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!
Today while rummaging through my wardrobe, i was thinking of what to wear . I wanted to wear something striking yet comfortable. I definitely wanted to add some drama to my outfit.
It was then I thought of wearing something black and white. I always feel it is the best way to add drama to your attire.

Me in my Indian wear….
It is a sure shot way to catch eyeballs.
Simple, classy and fashionable at the same time.
Even though this look does not require much accessorizing,but you can still add some jewelry
To accessorize, you need black shoes or slippers and some silver jewellery. You can also wear silver slippers to add some more glam. This outfit can also be worn with diamonds or pearls, for a more sophisticated evening look.
ENJOY!
My favorite in winters is black. I think it’s everyone’s favorite.
Because I wear Indian wear to work,I have to stylishly wear my black multipurpose sleeveless jacket with my kurta.
Here I am wearing a short black quilted silk jacket with an ink blue kurta. The blue and black is a lively and dramatic combination. The Jacket is from FabIndia and the kurta is custom made.
The jacket has very fine quilting and is ideal for this weather.
I have teamed the kurta with black tights and silver jewellery.
This jacket can also be teamed up with jeans and a top.
A simple smart outfit for daily wear.
These are my silver accessories.
Hope you liked the look.
Winter is starting to make its presence felt here in Delhi. There is just a slight nip in the air.
For an evening out I wore this fusion ensemble. Layering has always been a passion,and here I layered my kurta with an off white cotton embroidered jacket from Janpath.. As my winter clothes are still deep inside my closet,I had no option but to make do with my summer separates. It was a bonus that the colors matched the colors of the Indian flag.
The kurta is from Fabindia.
I am wearing off white palazzos.
Nude slippers,silver cuff and a matching bag complete the look.
ENJOY!
Hi folks! Now that I have introduced you to the indian wear terminology,I am going to go ahead and show how the demure kurta can be worn.
Here I am wearing a printed pakistani print kurta with black cotton pyjamas. the pyjamas are slightly above ankles and the kurta is quite long.
I wore this while traveling. It is comfortable and looks fresh.Got a lot of compliments for this outfit.
The length of the kurta gives a slimming effect.
A nice wear for fall.
You can wear heels with this outfit, but I wore flats, as I wanted to travel in comfort. The nude color goes with everything, so I had to pack less.
My silver neckpiece from Jaipur, is an all time favorite of mine.
My whole outfit except the accessories, costed just INR 4500(shoes included)
ENJOY!

Writing a fashion blog entails a lot of effort and passion. You want to share your views on fashion and learn more from fellow fashion bloggers. As I go through so many fashion blogs one thing stands out. Most bloggers put up #OOTD regularly featuring themselves as models. Its so nice. I would love to do it too. But I have a problem. In fact two problems. No three maybe. Leave it. There are too many ”ifs and buts.”
First and foremost. I am 49 years old . Can I model my outfits or am I too old for that ?
Second equally important. I wear mainly Indian or fusion wear . Are there any takers for that?
Third. I am married and have been for 26 years. I have no boyfriend who could click my pictures with dedication and affection. Of course photographers wont have a similar passion. So I lose out on that.
Fourth.My son is a great photographer. You must have seen the photographs that I put up on my sites .They are all shot by him. But ,he doesn’t like to shoot people. Oh, are girlfriends not people. Every second his display picture on WatsApp is changed. He is there with ”people”. So may be I am a mom and so do not conform to his idea of an actual; person.
Fifth. Even if I overcome all the above, what should I do about the people around me who are ready to judge me? I am not the right age or in the right profession to model. What if my students come across my blog, or my children’s friends see me. Now that they say is going to be a disgrace. Especially when my daughter who is 26 , is about to be married. What will her husband and his family say?
So ,what do I do.Stop writing?
Can you wonderful people out there believe that I have not activated the Facebook option on publicize. THIS I HAVE DONE SO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY DON’T JUDGE ME.
So what do I do?
To all my fellow women who are aging, you maybe be called a fashionista in your circles but mind it, you cannot model or put up pictures of you in interesting outfits on social media without being judged.
Lets think about a way out of this . Help me too. I am in a dilemma .
BE HAPPY ALWAYS
( IF YOU CAN BE YOURSELF)
XOXO
