New Wedges

Picked these up during a recent shopping trip. Can't stop wearing them everywhere I go. Other than the fact that they are pretty, they are also super comfortable.
Looking forward to wearing them again very soon.

Rock Chic

This Christmas I treated myself to a pair of Miss Sixty black leather ballerina flats with silver studs. I love that they add an edge to even a very simple outfit.

Shopping Destinations: Linking Road

One of my favorite budget places to shop in Mumbai is linking road. The clothes are passable but I love the crowded little stalls selling the shoes. 

I like shoes with a traditional twist to it especially the kolhapuris in cool colors. They go perfect with just a white shirt and a pair of blue jeans.I picked up two pairs of shoes this time. A pair of ballerina flats with a traditional print covered with clear sequins giving it a faint shimmer.

I also got a pair of blue kolhapuris with neon embroidery.

Yellow Fever

I have had a sudden affliction of yellow fever. No, not the dangerous medical kind. I am talking about the fun fashionable kind. I have fallen completely in love with all shades of yellow. I really like having it on my clothes. The bright color can brighten up even the gloomiest of days. I made a recent purchase of mustard jeans as you can so clearly tell by the smug grin on my face.
I like pairing my mustard jeans with my electric blue sky high heels and an electric blue top. For accessories, I like something heavy in gold like the knotted neckpiece I am wearing, a simple black and gold chain purse and my favorite watch. I'm wearing my favorite coral color on my lips and my hair is left to be its usual wild curly self.

You know you want the fever.

Fashion Essentials: première partie

Everyone has fashion essentials. Everyone should have them. Be it your loose red shorts you spend your Sunday lounging in or be it those towering electric blue heels which give you shoe bites (what's a bit of pain when it comes to looking good!)

I think, fashion essentials vary depending on the place you live at. I mean, my black coat and leather boots would be my fashion cannot-do-withouts when I am in London. But, c'mon. I'd have to be a lunatic to wear a black coat and walk around in a place where winter never arrives. 

So, here goes, my fashion essential list for Bombay to help me stay fabulous and chic:

1. My Black heels

Make that all the pair of black heels that I own. I have 4 pairs. Not too much right? Yeah, they are, when you end up having to pay extra baggage for extra pairs of shoes. I have formals, I have sky high, I have lace, I have peep-toe; sigh.
And trust me, the moment I see another black pair, I am going to have very little self restraint to keep me from picking them up.

2. The color red

Yeah, I have a major fetish for the color red. I love red shoes, red lipstick, red nailpaint, red dresses and of course, red does look very very good if taken further. 

Can you imagine the world without the color red? You wear an absolutely drab dress in brown or some equally boring pastel shade and smear some red lipstick or paint your nails red and you'll still make heads turn. Oh, and don't even get me started on red heels.

3. Lace

I remember my friend telling me she would disown me if I went after any more lace. I have lace in every form of clothing you can think of. And since that wasn't enough, I went ahead and bought some shoes with lace too. Pretty much everyone has had enough of me and my lace. But I haven't been able to get rid of this addiction. Not that I am trying either. 

4. Coral Lipstick

This is fairly new love of mine. But I think its going to stick with me for
sometime, like every little thing I usually pick up does. 

I absolutely adore coral lips. And in the Bombay sun, it just seems to be such a perfect match. 

5. LBD
Last but not the least, my little black dress. I mean, it has to be there on the list.
Immortalized by Audrey Hepburn, adored by millions, making women all over

the world feel beautiful is the little black dress.  I am not even going to say why
its on my list of fashion essentials.
I like pairing mine with pearls or a single stone pendant. And my black heels.
And a tweed jacket. Classy. Always!

Well, that's my five fashion essentials. For Bombay. 

You know you want them.
