Day 16: Explore the ear cuff trend. And explore I did. Honestly, I am not even sure when I bought this ear cuff but my best guess is I picked it up on my way to the counter at Forever 21, while passing by the accessories section. So this isn’t exactly the most comfortable jewellery…
Summer Wardrobe Challenge
Day 7: Make a fancy dress casual enough for daytime with a pair of flats. This was definitely one of my favourite challenges, especially because I can see myself doing this a lot after the Summer Wardrobe Challenge is officially over. Putting your fancy dress (which us usually not worn as often) to good use…
Bermondsey Street Festival
It was a great start to the weekend with coffee (and cake and soup and sandwiches and doughnuts) with friends in the morning followed by a visit to the Bermondsey Street Festival.

Day 21: Go for a sleek full-tuck. I am not a fan of the shirt tuck. Half tuck, sloppy tuck, yes. But not the sleek full-tuck, especially with trousers. A sleek tuck always seems too formal to me and mostly very uncomfortable. But after seeing some of Helena’s looks on the Brooklyn Blonde, I have…

Day 12: Break out your breeziest summer dress. When someone says ‘breezy summer dress’ what usually comes to my mind is something long and beachy, maybe a little frilly, in a material like chiffon and the colour is definitely white. I don’t own a dress with all these specifications and frankly, would not have a…
Winter is Coming: Stylish Winter Coats
Actually fall is coming and that means the great winter coat hunt begins. I have lived my whole life in India, in cities where a coat was an exotic article of clothing no one needed to wear. It was something that people in cold countries wore and looked slick in. But I have always wanted…
Review: Bermondsey Arts Club or BAC
Right on time for Saturday night – our cocktail bar review. I ended up going to the Bermondsey Arts Club thrice in the span of a week. This was for two reasons – one, its literally diagonally opposite my house and two, I loved the place (hence, the second and third visit). So what’s so…
Summer Wardrobe Challenge
Summer Wardrobe Challnge Day 6: Go for an all-white look. White is one of my favourite colours to wear – when I say white I also mean to include cream and off-white. Actually, white along with black, green, red, grey and blue are pretty much the only colours I wear. But I have noticed that…
Summer Wardrobe Challenge for Day 11
So we continue with our wardrobe challenge. This is an interesting one. Summer Wardrobe Challenge Day 11: Wear the hat you bought last summer, but never wore. So that’s what I did.
