Crocs Makes Your Busy Days Super Comfortable

Crocs India launched their range of Busy Day Collection 2.0 shoes recently. The shoes are targeted towards the busy woman of today who runs errands, takes care of the kids, does the shopping and also has a job to manage. These are your anywhere, do-anything shoes. The upper part is made with a stretchy fabric that allows easy foot movement. And the best part is the new footbed. It has extra arch support and a cushioned heel for greater comfort.

The foam footbed gives an excellent rebound and shock absorption making these perfect for running around all day. The shoes have been styled keeping in mind the fashionistas who want comfortable yet less athletic looking shoes.

There are two types of shoes that have been launched in the Busy Day Collection 2.0
Women's Duet Busy Day 2.0 Satya A-line and The Busy Day Skimmer shoes.
Both the shoes are great for all day wear and differ in the styling. Skimmer shoes are more easy to put on due to their ballerina type shape. The Satya A-line comes with a tab at the back which can be pulled back to easily slip on the shoes.

While the Satya A-line comes in 3 color variants, the Skimmers come in 8 color combinations of Black/Fuchsia, Black/Graphite, Blue Violet/Light Grey, Electric Blue/White, Ice Blue/Pearl White, Nautical Navy/Pool, Nautical Navy/White, and Ultraviolet/Poppy.

Celebrity Style Skirts And Where To Buy Them

When it comes to fashion a good skirt is a must have in your wardrobe. Skirts come in many shapes and sizes; from pencil skirts that enhance your figure to the long flowy kinds that look super romantic. There are so many movies that I have seen where I loved the skirts worn by the actresses. There are celebrities who wear skirts and you just want to grab that awesome looking piece for yourself.

I'll share a few skirt styles that I really like and help you find out something similar online for yourself.

The first one that comes to my mind is Letter's To Juliet. This movie happens to be one of my favorites. I am a die hard romantic and just love the feel of this movie.

The Pencil Skirt

Amanda Seyfried wore such pretty outfits in the movie. Understated, elegant and very girly. I love this picture where she is wearing a pencil black skirt. You can get a similar one from Kaaryah - Black Pencil Skirt.

Team it up with a crisp white shirt and black pumps and you are all set to go to work looking super chic. Wear it with a sequined top and some pencil high heels and your work wear just got transformed to a fun evening out. Keep the skirt above your knees if you have long legs and let the skirt hem touch cover just your calves if you are on the heavier side.

How To Style Sequined Jeans To Work!

Call me crazy but its true, I recently wore a pair of sequined jeans to work. The old me would have never approved of something of the sort but I fell for this pair and decided to make them work.

The jeans have very pretty crystals, silver beads and sequins on the front pockets.

I would team this with a white shirt with a bow knot on the neck and black detailing on the sleeves. For the feet pair the outfit with a comfy pair of white sandals. A sleek black belt completes the look.

And since we are headed to work, take along a spacious white and black bag. And while we are matching everything a simple black and white nail art works well for work.

ConfusionFa Statement Neckpieces

My love for statement neck pieces is back. Here is a look at 3 pieces I picked up from ConfusionFA sometime back.

The above piece has a stunning black brown marble effect pendant with a very fine intricate leaf and a bead drop. The strings are white pearls. Reminds me of the Mughal Era. Silk black sari with a very thin border is that I think this would look good with. Or a chiffon pale lemon sari with the necklace taking away all the attention.

The next one I got is a green beaded necklace with a mother-of-pearl floral pendant. This looks very royal and I plan to match it with a saree with simple floral gold studs for the ears.

The third one is a bit more modern. Multiple strings of tiny purple beads with a huge flat stone piece in yellow that sits on the side closer to the neck. A very Bohemian look - long flowy floral skirt,  white sheer top in Georgette, open hair with natural waves - yes I'm picturing this out on the beach in some ways!

Hi friends, I hope the week has started on a good note for you. The weather is lovely, bright sunshine on an otherwise cold day is simply perfect.

I recently got myself a pair of leggings from OASAP.com, these are snowflake printed leggings perfect for the season. They are called Chic Stripes with Snowflake Leggings. They are made of cotton blend fabric and are lined inside with a very soft light fur. These are extremely warm and great if you are headed outdoors in the cold.

Fashion Post: Outift Of The Day - Welcoming Winters

Winters are here and long sleeve shirts and sweatshirts are already out of the closet. Today I'm sharing a casual outfit of the day to welcome the winters. 

I chose to wear a full sleeves t-shirt paired with slim fit trousers. I really wanted to do this shoot outdoors but the sun seems to hide behind the clouds every time I take out my camera!

I spotted this t-shirt online and loved the print detailing on the sleeves. To add a bit of spunk to the otherwise extremely casual attire I decided to wear a statement necklace with big bold beads. The colors in the beads actually go well with the pattern detailing on the sleeves of my shirt.

For the trousers, I swapped out my jeans with a pair of corduroy trousers that are slim fit. Corduroy is my favorite trouser fabric for winters as it keeps me warm and comfortable throughout the day. I chose to match my outfit with these pair of heels in a mint green color. I am still practicing wearing heels for longer periods of time - the max I have gotten so far without spraining my ankles is 2 hours.

Fashion Update: Being Human Autumn Winter 2014

Being Human clothing has come out with its Autumn/Winter 2014 range. There are lovely blues and grays to beat the chill but don't fret, a lot of color is added to brighten up the days as well.

Let me take you into the Being Human store to take a look at some of the latest garments available.

I love the shirts that they have launched for the girls. These are printed, checkered and floral shirts with roll up sleeves. Perfect to wear with either denims or the colored pants available in store. Apart from the shirts you see in the pic, they also have bright coral, yellow and green shirts. The shirt on the upper left is actually brighter - I can't figure out why this pic won't show proper colors of this shirt. These shirts have a nice fit and the fabric is super soft.

For the guys they have layering options with jackets, checkered shirts, and half sleeve jacket combos in bright colors. There are a few leather jackets too - I clicked a pick of a friend wearing the jacket who now refuses to let me put up the pic on the blog!

I.N.O.X. From Victorinox - Setting History In Time

Victorinox - the name behind the famous Swiss Army Knife is celebrating the 130th Anniversary of its parent company, Swiss Army, and how! Victorinox has launched a new watch which is no short of a tour de force: I.N.O.X. is a watch that is ready to defy the imagination with its sharp design.

I.N.O.X. From Victorinox - Setting History In Time
I.N.O.X. From Victorinox - Setting History In Time
I.N.O.X. takes its name from the French word for stainless steel - Inox - and there is a special reason behind this. The makers of I.N.O.X. watch have put this watch through a series of tests - and when I say series, I don't mean 10 or 20 tests - but rather a total of 130 tests to ensure the robustness of this watch which is going to make history.

I tried to find out the kind of testing that the watch has undergone and this is a sample of what I found:

JORD Wood Watch - 94A Chocolate - Review

Watches are an accessory that always spell style. In today's world of mobile phones people have really no use for the watch as a simple time piece, what they need is something that makes heads turn. And wouldn't the concept of a wooden watch itself be enough to get you curious about what the other person is wearing on their wrist?

JORD watches came as a real surprise to me - I had never heard of wooden watches before and the entire idea of owning a wooden watch intriguing. I took a look at the watches on www.woodwatches.com and was amazed to see the watches on sale!

Ruckus - The Ruckus Girl & Her Death Crew

Ruckus Apparel, a company based in Colorado, creates unique clothing and accessories with the basic theme in mind that 'Good is the enemy of Great'. I find that thought quite interesting, something to surely ponder over.

The team at Ruckus sent me a surprise package of a T-shirt and Cap from their collection. But before I could notice these I noticed a sticker that said 'Death Crew' - so this package officiated me into their death crew! I am now a Ruckus Girl who is not afraid to better herself each day and to battle out the mediocre as there is no stopping on the path to the Great!

And now a peek into the t-shirt and cap I got. The T-Shirt is their official football t-shirt for girls - it has the number 19 on it. The shape is quite flattering but most of all I found the fabric to be so perfect for the humid climate we have these days. I proudly wore this out to a night out with friends sans the cap of course.

Grand Finale - Jabong India Online Fashion Week

The excitement about the first ever Indian Online Fashion Week culminated with a grand finale held at the Le Meridien ballroom.

As designers showcased their talent, hearts went aflutter on seeing the handsome Aditya Roy Kapoor and the gorgeous Yami Gautam.

Yami walked for Rajdeep Ranawat in a beautiful full length dress. She looked so fairy like. I loved her loosely done side braid. Her makeup was kept simple and she looked very sweet.

The entire night proceedings were telecast live on the internet as well.
The Grand Finale of Jabong Online Fashion Week chose its three aspiring artists across three categories; Ashish Gurbani (Best Photographer), Vipin Arora (Best Makeup artist) and Arvind Sharma (Best Hair artist).

My first grand experience of witnessing a night of glitz and glamour ended on a high note of scrumptious food and cocktails.

The entire collection showcased during the Indian Online Fashion Week is available on www.jabong.com and is thus the first ever shop able fashion week in the history of Indian Fashion!
