Beat the summer with your new wardrobe additions !


Summers in India are very hot, and often when I look at the clock I feel like snuggling under my dovet with air conditioner blowing at my face instead of going out anywhere. I am sure many of you can totally agree with me on this. Being a couture fanatic, I thought about summer wardrobe. When we have something new hanging in the closet it speaks to us, it gives us a reason to put on the sunshine smile and head out to enjoy the summer with a dash of cafe coolers or chillatas.
My favourite colour for the season are Yellow, Orange, and Green. No doubt fashionistas have been going gaga about reds, pinks, and blacks. This summer I plan to step away from the typical shades in my wardobe and indulge in the bright shades of yellow, green and orange. Zara has come out with floral dresses and shirts. The green dress in the picture above is also from Zara.

The working women who adore prints but avoid them to work place, D & G has a look which will convince you wear your prints with grace and elegance down your office alley. The printed T-shirt is aptly coordinated with a pencil skirt and high pumps with gold touch. The look in itself is bold yet sassy at the same time. You can find D & G collection in The Collective, New Delhi incase you wish to buy the same.
So, go out over the weekends look around the massive burst of colours that summer brings with it apart form the scorching heat and live the moment before its gets too cold and we are cuddled up in overcoats and boots. Enjoy the summer with bright vivacious summer dresses, floral kaftans, and shorts in all possible colours you can think of. Don't let the heat beat you! Go for it ! Cheers

The Right One for the Right Body Type

Expert speak
Lets see whether you wear the right bras as per your body types ... because it is very important to wear the right style or else you end up spoiling your look.

Lets get started now

- If you are petite or pear shaped, wear the push-up bra. This shape almost adds a full extra size and is ideal for those who wish to enhance their décolleté. The completely padded version complements the pear shape. It creates a rounder breast shape, thereby balancing the large hips. Panties with medium coverage are advisable here for they are best at minimising imperfections.

- If you are apple shaped, wear the balconnette bra. The cut of the cups of these bras is such that it reveals and highlights the upper portion of the breasts. The straps are to be found at the side of the cups, which are under-wired and available with or without padding. It is suitable for round breasts that don't need much support or for those who want to highlight their décolletage in deep-necked dresses.

- If you have a boyish chest, wear the triangle bra. This style is suitable for small-breasted women who are cool with it and are looking for a young, glamorous and trendy effect.

- If you are extremely busty, wear the classic bra. These are under-wired to guarantee better support and the cup covers nearly the entire breast, thus lending a natural shape. Its central straps guarantee complete freedom of movement and the high back allows a proper distribution of the weight of the breasts on the shoulders.


P.S : I hope the section was of help to you. :)

Ready to wear ...

These dresses just took my breath away. Every particular style just fits one or the other forthcoming party and get-together. Especially the pink dress, the unique cut and style is amazing. I even adore the look of the brown dress (second from right). It's something different. The first from right also looks stunning.

Handbag , Essentials ...



Handbags are not just a necessity, it’s a statement of your personality. Before we get down to making a fresh new list of our up coming purchases , lemme quickly help you categorize the same. Well, a woman is supposed to have the basic shoulder bag which she can use as a day wear, shopping bags (not the polybags, the actual big size Handbags), and evening clutches.
The must have colours would include – Black, White, Red. Once you have one of each kind in your handbag wardrobe, you are ready to experiment with colors.

When it comes to shopping bag, I would recommend a Chanel, or a Fendi, or maybe a Cannage Dior.

The  shoulder bags can be carried with a pinch of drama as portrayed by the summer 2010 collection from Ferragamo. One can even pick up a Burberry quilted Black n White bag to get a change from the regular Beige. Louis Vuitton is all set with their Damier Ebene and Monogram collection, watchout you can even get your piece personalized by hot stamping . Valentino goes all Lacy this Fall ... with Roberto cavalli stomping the ground with blues and yellows.

Evening clutch is a piece which should be carried off with panache. It should be carried off in a way which makes your entire look, head-to-toe, complete. Chanel introduced a plexi glass clutch which is an item worth every sterling. Louis Vuitton came with the perfect Red evening wear. If you wish to keep the evening clutch simple yet powerful , Ferragamo is for you. D&G gives you options for clutch which are young and charming with colours ranging from pink to blue to jade green .
