Five Things I Ticked Off My Shopping List

Unlike my sister Anisha who did her “no shopping October” my October was absolutely opposite. Since my parents were in London I gave them a long shopping list of things that I wanted and carried on with my own list here. These are the top five things which were and some weren’t on my list. To be honest I secretly (not so secretly anymore) blame it entirely on Anisha. Why?

Outfit detail : Singlet from Forever21 (similar), jeans from Zara, sweatshirt from Adidas Originals, bag is Coach (similar), sunglass from Oakley, lace shoe from H&M (similar) and the neck piece is a gift from Alaska by my aunt.

The first thing I bought was a very similar red skirt, not patent leather but suede. I just have to wear the same outfit, it helps with the fact that I already own the same t-shirt. After I read her post the skirt was just something I had to own. The funny thing is that I don’t usually wear red and own very little red clothing. Looking forward to wearing it with my own take on the outfit.

After a lot of back and forth I finally bought a black jacket. It’s purely for winter and no use to me in Mumbai. I kept eyeing this other pale pink one but this one just seemed so much more smarter. I suddenly feel like a copy cat, deciding on a black jacket only after seeing Akshay, my boyfriend try on a black leather one which looked really great on him. That black faux leather jacket was of course my next purchase of the month.

My assistants and I were sourcing at Lower Parel, Phoenix mill for a shoot and we had a time crunch. While zipping through the stores my eyes fell on a dress and I knew I would have nightmares if I didn’t buy it. Having bought clothes for a lot of people I usually manage to pick up stuff for myself without having to try them on, which is exactly what I did and I love it.

Last on my list is a pair of pants which I had no plans of buying but is now my favourite. Its comfortable and looks great. There were few colours but the grey looks the best.
