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!
Not Your Ordinary Schoolgirl Pinafores – Edgy, Cool and Effortless
I am totally eating my hat right now. I remember making fun of friends who wore (or rather had to wear) pinafores to school. Luckily I escaped that. And I never thought I would wear pinafores voluntarily. And definitely not pretend my normal dresses were pinafores. But I just ordered this green (faux) leather pinafore….
Autumn Androgyny, Winter Shopping & Blog News! #OOTD
You may have seen me showing off my new shoes. I am slightly ashamed to say I was very sneaky and cheap about these. I absolutely knew I should not spend money on another pair of heels after I got these two pairs. We were ambling around Brick Lane and magically ended up at an All Saints sample…
Feminine Fashion – Shirt Dresses and Chiffon
I loved how polished and feminine this turned out. This isn’t one of my favourite shirt dresses. Far from it. Its a dress I bought from Primark some years back and have barely ever worn. It was the wrong size, then I got it stitched up to fit and by then I had already lost…
All Travel Packing is Not Equal: Packing Mistakes to Learn From and Avoid
I have been telling Bidisha to write about travel packing since she travels a lot. A lot. A lot. But I have been travelling and will be travelling a lot too. So there is no reason for me not to do the post. My travel plans have been a little absurd lately. I just went…

This post covers: blazers, jumpers and cardigans, shoes, bags, and other accessories. I know this post is a little late. Honestly, I forgot about it for sometime till a friend reminded…
Basics in Basic Colours, and a Gold Oversized Clutch! #OOTD
Sometimes basics go a long way but I do think even basics should be a little interesting if they are to work on their own. Thats why I tried on this slightly longer white shirt with basic blue jeans instead of a normal white shirt. Although, of course, there is nothing basic about that bag.
Shopping Bag: Workwear Buys and #OOTD
Item 1: Stradivarius Faux Leather Pencil Skirt and Item 2: Zara Houndstooth Dress I am obviously some one who takes her own advice. I mentioned this camel faux leather skirt and dress in my workwear post as a fashionable workwear pick and went and picked it up. To offset the slightly daring leather for work I will wear…
Polished Denim: Turtleneck Tee and Jeans #OOTD
You may have noticed that I am not a big fan of jeans. Jeans addicts – I know, you are shocked. Its weird. I have worn jeans once on this blog but this post continues my endeavour to polish up my jeans. Especially because I found the most amazing, well fitted jeans in Stradivarius. I am…
