Traditional Treasures In Contemporary Fashion
Hey! In today's world , when there's an acute shortage of time , all of us have shifted to western wear . It's not confined to casual , gym or work wear any more. Most of us has started opting for the modern silhouette even for weddings , receptions , engagement parties ,to even baby showers. Of course , they are easy to manoeuvre ( hahaha ). Most of the ethnic wear are heavy , cumbersome and functionally restrict the Wearer. Traditional outfits though look ethereally gorgeous. I , personally love traditional clothes and have a really huge collection of Sarees and lehangas and wear them often. But a lot of my friends are wary of ghaghras and Sarees so I thought of giving a contemporary twist to my ethical wear to create a functional as well as beautiful outfit.
I am wearing a traditional Bengali Saree over a pair of leggings and a crop top. As it is scorching summers , I choose a muted and subtle shade of off-white with dull gold woven in the fabric. I opted for an off-white leggings over any other hue as it would not ofset the Saree and create evenness. For the blouse , my pick was a bright yellow boxy crop top.I paired it up with mint pumps which brought a lot of freshness along . I added a rainbow necklace and voila! My look was complete. Here are a few pics :

Nautical Natter
Hey ! my beautiful people,
How are the vacations going on for you? Mine are very chilled out and relaxed...no , haven't been to any 'it ' place till now but , just being in your mom's home and she taking care of everything under the sun , is a bliss.
I am wearing a lot of nautical these days. Nautical instantly reminds you of sea , sailors and stripes ( horizontal , to be precise ). Though , for us , curves blessed women wearing horizontal stripes is a wee bit tricky but , if you apply a little logic , you could really kill it.
Of course , everyone is wearing stripes as it is a big trend these days and why should your size be a hindrance . Just choose wisely and enjoy being the fashionista among your peers. I have created a few looks , you could take clues from these as well....

Pastel punch!!!!
Summers are all about whites and pastels , cotton and mulmul , sheer and lace and of course ! Icecreams and lemonades....
So , I thought of combining all of the above ( minus Icecreams and lemonades and all delectable stuff we get to eat during summers...lol ) for an OOTD. Being curvy ,black is your best friend and so are other dark hues but somehow, I have never been a fan of darker shades barring black and navy. But lighter colours make you look big , they say and I am here to break that myth girls....of course dark colours create an illusion of streamline and leaner you but in such scorching heat the thought of donning black or navy or other dark shades is devastating , to say the least. You should dress according to the weather and your mood ...if you want to look dewy fresh , opt of pastels. Just choose the right fabric and silhouette and you could get it right , bang on.
Here's my look , where I am wearing white shirt with a powder blue lace skirt , silver pumps and a blue sling . Opt for fewer accessories in summers , I am wearing just a watch.
