BIBA Fashion

Hey Lovelies,

If the idea of Indian techniques of design interest you then BIBA is for you. It is just not about the designs, but also about the thought behind such unique creations. What I love about the kurtas is how they try and add a modern touch to their designs. BIBA offers traditional Indian clothes in a fresh and twisted manner that is sure to create a difference. Some of my favorite styles are listed below-

1. Indigo Viscose Straight Kurta

Indigo colors are not just for denims. The versatile color works amazingly well as a traditional kurta and it goes so well with a pair of palazzos. Below is a straight fit Indigo kurta with side pockets. The intricate detailing on the sleeves further add a touch of feminity to the piece.

Mustard Fall Favourites 2015

One thing I miss during wearing during the cold months is my favourite 'yellow'. It is too bright and screams summer,hence, come winter and enter 'mustard yellow'! It is much toned down in terms of brightness when compared to 'yellow' and adds a feeling of warmth and comfort. The best part is that the shade looks so trendy when layered with textured fabrics.
One of my favourite ways to style during casual fall mornings, is to style a chic mustard cardigan with navy blue jeans and a bright teal scarf.  Also an added leather accessory like a bag or boots can do wonders. The bag may be brown or one can also play up with a hot color such as pink or coral.

5 Tips on How To Wear Dark Lips & FOTD

Francois Nars once said,''For me lips are as sexy as it gets."

Lately I have been trying to come out of my comfort zone, I have started using darker shades of lipsticks. Deep plums/oxblood shades are perfect for winters which suite all skin tones. However it is can be tough pulling off such shades perfectly. So, here are some quick tips on how I like to wear darker shades.

1. Coordinate your make up- When we are going for a dark lipstick, it means the 'centre of attraction' is going to be our LIPS. So keep everything else to the minimal. The eye makeup should be simple and as neutral as possible. In order to make the look more wearable I usually avoid 'cat-eyes' and instead go for a classic black stroke of eyeliner.

2. Lip Liner- Do not under estimate the effectiveness of a lip liner when it comes to darker shades. The liner will keep the shade from bleeding and help it to stay put for a longer time, I have messed up dark lips several times when I got lazy and skipped a lip liner!

Five Fall Favorites: Fashion

Hello Hearts,

Fall is that time of the year which allows us a smooth transition from summer flip flops to those cute booties which we missed so much! The season screams Burgundy to me. I think Burgundy is a shade which suits all skin tones really well. It is a bold, rich color with a classy edge to it. If I were to describe the shade in one word then it would be 'Ravishing'. 

My favorite fall look is a flowy high low assymetric burgundy dress with an animal print belt. To make the look more casual I prefer ankle length boots instead of stilettos. Also I couldn't think of a better pair of earrings other than the 'shimmering leaves' earrings to describe Fall. Lastly I completed the look with a black lace clutch to add a feminine (goth) touch!

Here I would like to mention a website named Raise which is an amazing new online marketplace where you can buy gift cards from your favorite stores such as Victoria's Secret, Macy's etc at a discounted price and sell your unwanted gift cards for cash! So no excuses, let the fall shopping begin!

''I am so obsessed with burgundy and deep plums during this season. A post on deep plum shades is coming soon. What is your favorite fall fashion? Do share!''

Sakshi Goenka Look: Ek Hasina Thi

The only Hindi daily soap that I follow is Ek Hasina Thi. The storyline is different and very interesting, all the actors in the serial are perfect for their parts. The entire set up of the plot seems to be well planned in advance and fantastically executed. The performance of all the actors in the serial is excellent. Also it seems as if a lot of thinking has gone into the outward appearance of the actors. The makeup, clothes and background music create an aura of 'perfect' drama.
If you too follow the daily soap you will agree that there is one person who overshadows everyone else with her grace,posture,beauty and phenomenal acting- Sakshi Goenka. This role is played by the famous television actor, Simone Singh, also famous for her debut in the serial Heena. Why am I so excited? Simply because she comes from my hometown, Jamshedpur!

Aztec Print Attraction: How to Style & Mobile Cover

Hello all you beautiful people. Today I am going to talk about my love affair with 'Aztec Prints' in the fashion world. There is something about the geometric designs and the color combination which makes me love the print so much. Aztec Fashion is inspired from the Azetc people, who belonged to ethnic groups of central Mexico.

How to style?

The Aztec Print is somewhat loud, so i prefer to style it with nuetral colors and keep low on the accessories. I stick to solid colors which compliment the print. Also I dont go 'all bling' with this print as i want the beautiful Aztec Print to draw everyones attention.
I have an Aztec print dress from Myntra that I love. See how I style it HERE

Summer Outfit: Cuteness Personified

Shorts and tank tops scream summer to me. I prefer loose-fitted comfortable clothes in summer so that my skin can breathe. When it comes to colors I like indulging in bright oranges and pinks. I have never come across a pair of shorts and tank top combo that looked cuter than the illustration below-

Embrace this summer with a pair of denim cut offs, team it up with a bright bow back tank and nude shades. The bow back tank top is my favourite. It is super easy to create, however, let me know if want a diy. To add to the look go for a cute pair of black (kitten) flats. 

 

 

kohlcrush tip: try to tie your hair up with this cute bow back top so that the 'bow' can be seen and appreciated by others. The bow is an eye candy and so one does not need any added accessories!

Tribal Print Dress-How to style?

Hello everyone!

Ever since i saw Gauhar Khan wearing a black and white tribal printed dress,i knew i wanted one. I managed to get a black & white tribal printed dress from one of the online shopping websites at a very reasonable price (Rs 500/), thanks to gosf!

I absolutely love the black and white horizontal prints in the dress. In my opinion combining the black and white tribal print with bright colors works fantastically. However if you want to play it safe you can always go for a regular black or nude pair of heels. Just the other day, i combined a pair of red kitten heels with the dress and it looked ravishing! I have become a fan of this outfit.
On other days, when i go for black heels i usually add a pop of color with a locket or ring (in mint green or turquoise) to make the look interesting.

Have a look at the picture below to get an idea of how both the looks comes out to be.

Style Tip-  Remember to add a pop of color to the black and white tribal printed dress especially because summers have arrived! The pop of color can be anything- a piece of jewellery, a purse, or simply a bright red lipstick!

I absolutely love the look. How do you like it? Do Share! 

Coral Summer Outfit

hello everyone!

I have been in love with the color 'coral' ever since i saw it,i think it is perfect for summers. It is neither too bright nor too boring...i have been pairing my coral tops with a pair of white denims lately. And i complete the look with some gold/ rose gold accessories.

I often go for this look for a movie or when i am out for lunch with friends. This look is a daytime look.

The picture below will give you an idea of how the finished look comes out to be. 

One can also wear a pair of nude heels to complete this look. I, however prefer to wear ballerinas ( unless i am going for a party) as they are more comfortable. 

This is one of my favourite summer daytime looks. What is yours? Are you hooked onto coral too?
