Hey Hey!

The weather is soaring high with each passing minute and we can barely get our pants on. That's when a summer dress and a kimono come into the picture. It saves you from the heat and your look is still on point. 

Kimono's are great for layering in summers because its lightweight and loose fitted, won't make you sweat buckets and well, they're just perfect.

Tip: They're great for covering up super skimpy summer dresses.

I paired this printed kimono with a white summer dress to keep it airy and fuss free. Accessorized with a colorful necklace and rings.

Did you know: Even if you pile on just a stack of midi rings, you still look completely accessorized.

I finished this look with a belt and a pair of wedges which have been the ultimate summer shoes since forever.

Tip: While everybody will be wearing just their kimonos, you go the extra mile to wear it with a belt!

The look that I shared with you today is super simple because that's what you do all summer; wear breezy dresses, slap on bright lipsticks and be unbothered about la vie.. isn't it?

Quick Pairing guide 

Day : Pair the kimono with shorts or maxi dresses for the ultimate boho look.

Night : Wear the kimono with a bodycon dress.  

Thank you for reading!

Much Love,

Hey Hey!

The best part about summer is you can carry off even the brightest color with grace & the moment I saw this skirt I was already prancing around wearing it (in my head). For this post, I chose to style this super bright pencil skirt (jussst look at it!) pairing it with a printed shirt blouse.

Tip: Mix brights with lights to get a balanced chic outfit. (eg: orange with light blue)

This comes as a no brainer that for super hot summers sleeveless blouses are your best bet & I personally like them collared. There's something structured about it.

Tip: Prints will easily give your outfit the character it needs. Watch out for unique ones.

Accessories were kept to its minimum with a multi layer necklace which is so versatile and perfect for summers (since it doesnt cling to my neck).

Tip: Be it for indian ethnic wear or casual western wear to a more formal wear, a multi layer necklace like this can save you heaps of time on accessorizing.

Tip: Pencil Skirts with flats go great but ankle strap heels are for a perfectionist.

Until Next Time Lovelies!

Hey Hey Everyone!

With my one and only one super talented photographer being sick, I was totally handicapped to do any posts. Nevertheless, today I begin my summer outfit posts series! Summer is officially here, so say hello to maxi's and more of maxi's! I am going to create outfit posts based on fresh summer trends to try out this year & first I'm going to go all green. 

While the entire world is going all pastels and white make them go green with jealousy by wearing tropical prints in the latter color.

Tropical prints are a no brainer for summers and they instantly get you in the groove to battle the heat stylishly.

Tip: Look for palms, jungle prints, wild flowers and there are so many others to pick from.

I paired my jungle print crop top with a maxi skirt. Repeat after me: easy-breezy-maxi. I kind of love the entire idea of creating my outfit around one color & this gorgeous green maxi matched perfectly with my top.

Tip: Ditch the usual whites, brights and blacks for maxi's. Look for richer colors like leaf green, mustard & fuchsia.

Coming on to accessories, I wore chunky pearl earrings, which have a little indian touch to it. Bearing that in mind, I wore a kundan watch and a pearl bangle bracelet to add up to a mini arm party. 

Tip: Accessorizing is very important for any outfit but in summers, unless you're off to a place with aircon, totally avoid necklaces. It's going to take the life out of you. Rather replace them with chunky earrings which can still do the trick.

Hope you liked these tips and will try it out too!

Until Next Time,

Hey hey!

Being just in time for a Valentine's Day outfit, there's no style guide I need to give you to dress up for this cheeky day except for one word "red". While wearing red is too mainstream, Valentine's day feels a bit incomplete without it.

Tip : You can tone down red only with white. Always remember this if you don't want to look over the top.

I paired my red skirt with a kiss print sleeveless shirt to give the perfect love-y feeling. I did accessorize enough with a statement oriental necklace, a ring, earrings and a glittery belt to prep up my outfit. 

Tip : If you're not a jewelry person, you can just wear a statement necklace and be just done.

I carried a sequined clutch bag which absolutely matched the color palette of my outfit and signed off with red heels.

Tip: Always always remember, even if your outfit is so-so, you can look fabulous if you carry the right bag and wear the right shoes.

I'm sure the outfit looks mushy enough for a few but Valentine's Day is being all about it, don't you think?

Happy Valentine's Day! 

Until Next Time,

Dushala.
