Take Out Your Old Suits And Wear Them Today!!

I was cleaning my cupboard today, and all i could see were the ethnic suits and lehengas which I bought for my brother's wedding last year. I didn't know what to do with them, obviously I was not going to wear them for somebody Else's wedding and I couldn't throw them either. I remember how my mother ate my head for buying so many of them. I had to put them in some other use.

I mix matched two of them. One was a magenta Salwar and short kurti and second was a Blue White cape with Blue lehenga. I mixed the two and wore the Blue White cape with magenta Salwar, I finished the look with kolapuri chappals and wooden bangles to give it a casual look. 

As an icing on the cake Kavisha Kundlani(MUA) gave my hair a twisted braid ( to learn how to make a twisted braid check out my older post - http://stylentra.blogspot.in/2015/05/style-your-hair-in-two-minutes.html ) and did a neutral make up.

This is how it looked.

Dungarees A Wardrobe Essential This Summer!!

Helloo girlfriends. 

We all know with every new season kicking in we tend to rush out to get new collections. And each time we are stressed we grab our bags and go shopping.

With college being shut for a while, and I have nothing to do except for shopping online.

This weekend i went out for thrift shopping, and bagged a dozen of things. And my best buy that day was this dungaree. I was super excited to wear this so i made a plan to go out the very next day.

I wanted to look perfect so Kavisha Kundlani (MUA) helped in doing my make up and hair, she tied them into a fish braid and gave me winged eyes.

I paired it with a grey black striped crop top, and blacked gladiators. To add to the look I wore pearl ear cuffs and golden bangles. 

This is how it looked.

For Those Lazy Days!!

When i woke up this Sunday morning, i was expecting it to be a day to rest after a long and tiring week. Delighted i was to realize that this was one of the days where i could  rest all day or wear whatever i want to, or not wear kajal the entire day or i didn't have to look into the mirror to fix my hair after every few hours. Little did i know that my sister was coming over so that we can go out and chill. I could see my Sunday going down the drain. I was feeling very lazy to look good, and seeing the heat outside i took out my denim Shirt dress and paired it with comfortable boyfriend shoes.  I was in no mood to wash my hair so i tied them into a messy bun, wore my watch, picked my bag and left. 

Easy? Isn't it? Also this didn't take much time of mine. 

Ready set go.

Love accessories? try this out.

We all can notice the changes in the fashion trends these days. Things which were in vogue years ago are now coming back. As a proof we can see pallazos and A-lines ruling almost every girls wardrobe. Just like clothes, body accessories are also making a come back. Funky body stickers being one of them, are used and loved by women all over the world. These stickers have been stealing everybody's attention lately. You can wear these anywhere, the same way how you wear your neckpieces or rings or bracelets. 

Why to buy accessories rather put funky stickers(you will never get bored of them, because you will never repeat what you wore the other day*wink* *wink*). 

Because I'm really fascinated by the DIYs these days, i tried making these stickers. They aren't gonna stick, because we will be making them with body metallic paints.

You can find any pattern you like and get them printed on a gum sheet.

Cut these out and paste them on your hand to define which area is to be painted.

use metallic body paints, and paint the areas. Then peal the paper off.

And this is how it looks when its is done 

Bring out your love for tattoos and try this.

Style Your Hair In Two Minutes

How hard is it to get up in the morning? One second, this cannot be a question, because  it is very very very hard. And what makes it harder is when you have to look nice and you don't have time. And you have to choose if you wanna look good or sleep a little more. In my case sleeping always wins. 

Well we cannot do anything about it, but instead i found 2 amazing hairstyles which will take less then 5 minutes and will make you look nothing less then Katrina Kaif.

This one is very easy. Start with taking few strands of your hair, and divide them into two.  To make it clearer i have marked the two parts with two different colors. Take the red one over the yellow and then do the same with the yellow.
Add few more strands to the red ones and take them over the yellow ones, do the same with the yellow strands. Repeat this process and look pretty in two minutes.

This one is easy and cute. First step is to half tie your hair, then take two sections from both the sides and tie them under the first tie. then flip the lower section, and you are done.

Try these and let me know how they look in the comments section below:).

Roar like the 20's

Wearing 1920's flapper dresses and walking down the road is unimaginable today.

Being a styling student i thought of coming up with an idea of wearing those pretty flappers today. Flapper dresses are the ones with no defined waist line and not sticking to your body. 

I chose the blue leatger jacket to pair up with tge peach and gold flapper dress to attain a bold yet a chic look. Wear Bovver boots to compliment the jacket. And accessorise according to your choice to complete the look.

Three Words: Little.Black.Dress.

'The little black dress' we hear this alot from girls for ever.It is a must have for every girl.The little black dress is a simple black dress which one can wear at any occasion. Ummm for example you can wear a black dress with a jacket and pumps for your daytime business and with nice ornate jewelry for the evening.

There were hell lot of fashion eras. We don't have to know them all but one 'the Victorian era'. The black colour which is a life saver for every girl was considered distasteful to wear, black was strictly restricted for times of mourning. We should thank Coco Chanel for making a very simple yet elegant design otherwise till date wearing black would have been difficult. Think about us, black gives us hope that we can look nice in public and not look fat for a change *jk*

So ya Chanel made the design and our favourite vogue magazine published it. Vogue also said that it would become "a sort of uniform for all women of taste". The little black dress got popular throughout the great depression. Filmmakers relied on it because other colours looked distorted on screen also it helped audience to focus more on the star. Soo true, we generally pay more notice to the dress than the performance. Be it Deepika Padukone in Ramleela or Preity Zinta in Salam Namaste. The love for the little black dress did not end. The black Givenchy dress of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, designed by Hubert De Givenchy gave an amazing example of the standard for wearing little black dresses accessorized with pearls (together called "basic black").

Betty Boop, a cartoon character based in part on the 1920s' "It Girl" was drawn wearing a little black dress in her early films. The little black dress is now considered as a rule of fashion.

So yeah those who don't have their little black dress in the wardrobe, go grab it now, and I will get mine.. hahaha:P. 

One quote of the Duchess: "When a little black dress is right, there is nothing else to wear in its place."
