I have always wanted to invest in a good denim skirt.Last I remember I wore a denim skirt was during junior college after that I guess I forgot about it and after I started working work formals are mostly what you'll spot me in.

Recently I came across this denim skirt and thought of rekindling old memories.I have till now tried only a little shorter version of a denim skirt but this time I decided to go for the midi version.

Denim skirts are very playful and have that casual vibe to it which ever lengths and styles you may try.

I have grown a liking for midi pencil skirts.This is a second appearance of a midi pencil skirt on the blog.There is not much going on in the look I have thrown in a casual tshirt.I have kept it very simple and effortless because denim really does not require lot of effort and thats whats denim symbolizes casual and simple.

If you have read my previous posts I am not much into heels but as I had promised in my earlier post New Beginnings I will surely try new things so here I am with these beautiful high heels.

Teal Tale

These teal pants are the closest thing that I own to coloured pants.When I bought these pants I had actually gone out looking for emerald green pants ,emerald green being the pantone of the year and all you see.I had seen the beauty blogging front going gaga over emerald green so I thought of incorporating it in my wardrobe.

But in my chase for emerald green I stumbled on these gorgeous teal pants and when I compared these teal pants with emerald green I was more attracted towards these teal pants.

Teal is such a sophisticated mixture of blue and green.I usually wear it with a white , black or a beige shirt/top keeping the look pretty much simple adding just a few accessorises and focussing more on the pants.Here I thought of jazzing up the look just a little bit by adding a beige blazer and a butterfly prints tank.

Keeping up with fall trends you can check Fall/Winter trends here which includes prints and hues of blue and green.

If you have already tried siren red,electric blue,mint or pastel coloured pants or are not much into these shades you can try colours such as teal,burgundy/oxblood,brick,olive green.

Casually Cropped

Crop tops have been very much in trend and are available in endless arrays of style ,colours and fabrics some showing midriffs and some just till belly buttons.When paired with a high-waisted skirt/jeans , palazzo pants or a maxi skirt, a good crop top will never let you down. 

Paring crop tops with high waisted bottoms is a excellent way to balance out the look.

Crop top is a very laid back piece made for those lazy and slow days.

I was looking for this blue and white polka dots combination for a long time but found it only in denim and that didnt look quite comfortable given the weather.The boxy crop shape of this shirt gives a very relaxed and comfortable feel.This look works best with a high waisted bottom to balance out the extra volume on top.

Just because its a crop top dosent mean you have to show your midriff and  the length of this crop shirt is just perfect for me.

Winter whites is a chic trend to try.White pants are a great base for working a colourful look on your top half.You can check Fall/Winter trends here which includes winter whites.

Dash of Dots

Polka dot dresses are so capricious, fanciful,girly and have a lovely retro vibe.It’s a vintage trend that women from around the world have fallen in love with.

Polka dots come in a wide variety of colours and styles that can suit everyone.Its universal appeal and style quotient make it a must have in your wardrobe.

For me smaller sized dots work better than larger ones.The size of these dots are pretty ideal for me.The breezy silhouette, flattering belted waist, and pretty pleated detailing makes the outfit perfect for a formal event or a casual outing.I have layered the dress here with a beige blazer.

Blazers are your dresses best friends.While layering a dress always keep in mind the silhouette of the dress and length of the blazer/jacket.I always love to layer my dress with a comfortable blazer.

This time I decided to ditch my heels and went for comfy flats.Ballet flats are a super chic alternative to high heels have always been my favourite. A pair of black ballet flats is a must have in your wardrobe.

Add a Dash of Dots to your wardrobe with these lovely Polka dots..

When it comes to skirts for me the longer the better.I personally am a big fan of pleated skirts.Just how wonderfully it transforms a otherwise simple outfit to a classy one.

Maxi skirt is an epitome of ease , modest yet fashionable and available in lots of trendy and gorgeous styles like semi sheer,pleated,side slit..etc.This trend can be worn in various styles but it is very essential to know the basics.With the help of right  top, accessories, footwear various styles can be created with this single piece.

The right amount of each element can transform this hippi chic look to a very stylish,comfortable and casual one.

There's something I have always loved about maxi skirts. I adore the fact that they are so comfortable and move with such grace and elegance.

Maxi skirts and dresses very much help in elongating your frame.The light weight and flowy nature gives a very relaxed feel.The best part is how immensly versatile this skirt is when transitioning from day to night look. 

I used to believe that maxi skirts and dresses are just not made for petites and could be carried well only by tall lasses.The secret to it is understanding the fit.The skirt should sit on the smallest part of ur waist, Choose a flowy style but not too baggy,the hem should hit right below the anklebone. These pointers can help you find a great fitting maxi skirt.

Maxi skirts are the new favourite for me.The ease with which it can be dressed up or down is probably its strongest selling point for me. 

Take a mini break from your regular outfits to indulge in these adorable and graceful maxis..

Lip Crayons

L-R  Clinique Chubby Stick Intense - Plushest Punch , Inglot Matte AMC Lip Crayon No 22 , 28(worn here), 21 , Clinique Chubby Stick Intense - Curviest Caramel

The Lip Crayon bug has bit me too.Almost every cosmetic brand is coming up with their versions of these cute lip crayons.These little chubby crayons are so efficient and easy to use and also fuss free application.Thats specifically the reason why I find myself drawn to lip crayons. Each crayon provides an intense colour and the crayon glides onto lips with ease and stays put for a pretty long time.

  While it may not be a new invention, it’s definitely becoming more popular from drug store to high-end makeup brands.

  From the glossy to matte, well pigmented to sheer formulas there seems to be one to suit every preference and in the absolute sea of these lip crayons I have picked my favourites in the matte and glossy versions.The twist up packaging is a plus point for me as I am not a big fan of crayons which require sharpening.

  I find myself more inclined towards matte lip crayons being such a matte lippy lover,as you can see the matte team outnumbers the glossy team.

  The Inglot crayons are super pigmented,non drying and long lasting while the Clinique ones are very much moisturising and don't feel heavy on the lips.

  These are my current favourite Lip Crayons.Have you tried these Lip Crayons.

Plaided

    Plaid is one of those timeless and classic prints.Plaid is a versatile and fun piece to have in your wardrobe.In simplest terms, plaid clothing is little more than checked pattern garments that may be bold and bright, like a tartan, or somewhat more subdued.The key to wearing plaid is by pairing it with neutral and simple pieces or items that are in the same tone and hue as the print.Plaid influences can be seen every where be it clothing or accessories.Plaid can break a plain outfit when you want some pattern.

   Here I have tried to maintain a similar hue across the outfit by teaming a grey plaid blazer with a black tank and light blue jeans.The puffed sleeves accentuate the femininity of the outfit.Also,one of my favourite bags these days which carry almost everywhere.

    If you’re not looking to do an all-out plaid ensemble, you add accent touches to your look a little with some adorable plaid accessories such as a plaid scarf ,bags,flats,hair accessories.Look for plaid fabrics to add to your wardrobe and get ready to stand out and don that plaid outfit.

The RED Pout

Vibrant reds will always be in vogue no matter the season.
Bold reds are a staple in fashion.

A red lipstick is a universal classic makeup item that is an absolute must have for every woman. Its chic and classy and alluring and it simply never goes out of fashion.I personally find matte reds better then glossy reds.

One of my favourite and most cult loved colors of all the reds I have tried is MAC's Russian Red(worn here).This little red bullet imparts the ideal matte finish perfect as a professional red, yet stunningly sophisticated.It just instantly brings a glow to my face.The Siberian shade is a true red leaning slightly towards the blue spectrum, a color which both flatters the face as well as brightens the teeth. 

Like a classic LBD every girl should have,she should also own a red lipstick perfect for her.Rather than me guiding you to find which red will suit you according to your skintone, experiment with a few reds available or try mixing two shades and find out your perfect red according to your personality and comfort level and flaunt it.

Chambray Diaries

  Chambray.where should I start with chambray.Chambray shirts are so low maintenance and versatile , can be worn as a layering piece to add texture and dimension to your outfit or worn by themselves.Paired with neutral pants ,knotted over a dress,tucked into a pleated or flowy skirt or just with other denims it just gels in effortlessly.

 Many people confuse chambray with denim but they are two different things and fundamentally very much different.Chambray is very much lighter then denim whereas as denim is coarse material.

 Here I have created a very casual look with a chambray shirt, black pants and comfy pumps and also my favourite hairstyle these days, the Donut Bun.

•    A white shirt is a blank fashion canvas which you can do anything with.One of the must haves and always a wardrobe staple new detailing have made this basic of wardrobe warriors far more fashion-forward than ever before.
•   There are many styles of white shirts from a tailored, crisp collared to a loose billowy poet blouse with ruffles to add a little bohemian to your chic. They also come in different hues of white such as bright white, eggshell, and off-white. This piece can be worn with just about anything from casual jeans to a snazzy suit. 
•   One could pair it with blue jeans but keeping the summers in mind I clinged to blue jeggings here. Get your white shirt out and dress it up with a pair of heels and take simplicity to new heights.
