This happens to me every October and every March. In October, I frantically realise I have barely managed to wear my summer clothing since weather has not been particularly summary. (I am Indian so summery weather for me is 24 degree and more, 20 degrees is not summer no matter how desperate you are).
A Fancy Summer Top Uniform
I wanted to write up a quick post with these pictures of my favourite summer top outfit. Its one of those tops you can wear with the rattiest bottoms and it ends up as the perfect fancy summer outfit but still casual enough.
Copenhagen: Style File 1
DJ and I went to Copenhagen in the beginning of October. It was pretty cold. We were only there for a weekend so I didn’t want to do a travel post as such but just do a quick style file of the outfits I managed to pack into one carry bag. (I split it into…
Preppy Layering – Shirts and Jumpers #OOTD
One of my favourite uniform outfits is the bottoms (jeans, leggings or anything else), a collared shirt, a jumper and a necklace. This look somehow doesn’t work as well without a necklace. A statement necklace is key. I call this look preppy layering!
Trend Try: Canadian Tuxedo, Denim on Denim #OOTD
I had been really snobbish about this. There is no way I was wearing denim on denim. It looks ridiculous, right? Wrong.

The Jeans, the Jacket and the Jumper This covers the practical buys. Almost everything I am wearing in this outfit is…
A Day Out in London
Well I must tell you London summer is like Kolkata winters. Cold. My sister asked me to carry all my summer clothes which I did. Sadly they all had to be worn with jackets. Also, of course, me being me I feel cold perpetually. Hope you like the outfits we both put together for the…
Fashionable Workwear – Part 1
I just started a new job this new year. Being a lawyer (in most cases) means dressing super (or at least somewhat) formally. At my first job, the dress code was not very colourful and my closet was full of white, black and grey shirts, trousers and skirts. I, of course, didn’t mind this at…
Take 3, Printed Trousers: Florals, Paisley, Aztec – all covered!
Once in a while, all three of us decide on a theme and dress accordingly. We put it all together for a post on this blog. For instance, the first one we did was the layering post, which was followed by the Indian wedding wear post. We also did one on denim, boho styling and…
Denim Shirt as a Jacket #OOTD
For someone who loves jackets, it’s quite strange that I do not own a single denim jacket. They never seemed to quite fit in with my lifestyle in Bombay (where it was too hot to wear denim jackets) and don’t really provide enough protection from London’s cold weather like my leather jackets. I have been wearing my Gap denim shirt as…
