Three looks with one top

Hi freinds. It's been long since I blogged. I am now completely filled with ideas for looks for an up-coming vacation.
Honestly we haven't actually booked the trip but I have taken up the project to put together looks.

I most definitely will buy new clothes (who am i kidding?!!) but i also want to use my existing pieces with new ones I collected on my way.

While I was thinking I thought might as well blog this and get opinions from friends!

Here is a top I loved. it is one-shoulder and has a fun print.

I have used in the past mixed it up several ways so here are the looks I created with the top:

Look1:

Dressy for dinner:





Since mostly everything was black/white I added color in my foot wear.
Closer look I have pulled my hair back to show my earrings but straightened my side bangs:


Look2:

Day time look. I wanted a fun flirty look for day time and I used same top for the flirty part ;)
For casual look and comfort I paired it with denim and sketchers to run around and jump around that things I do best :)


Cross body bag also to add to the casual part.

I did put a flower clip in my hair but its barely visible :)

So now I want to mostly make it dressy again:

Look 3:


I will keep it simple using black pumps. Obviously for the end result with makeup and accessories you will wait and watch here :)

Side braid




I have long-ish hair that comes down mid-way to my back and all I ever do with it is tie it up in a pony-tail or leave it open with a center part, and sometimes wear a hairband. Last week I saw a blog where this girl had tied her long hair in a side french braid and it looked gorgeous. Here is my attempt at a side french braid. Though pictures do not really do justice to it, I thought it looked good, and different from the usual.

Coming to my outfit, I wore a pink shirt, green sweater and a khaki skirt. No jewelry, no makeup!

Shirt and sweater from Banana Republic, skirt from Lifestyle India.

I have this new look for New year's party. It was a casual house party at my husband's boss' place.

I kept the outfit itself rather casual but added some bling in the form of accessories and slightly more makeup.

Hope you dig this

For my attire, I chose brown top with Maroon sweater and dark wash jeans. I added nude/pewter color shoes.

I also was going for a hair cut so here's a before after :)

Hi Guys..yesterday night I went out with a girl friend and this is what I wore. Its a orange Bandage Skirt I bought from a street shop in France. I paired it up with a Cashmere bright Blue sweater , Blue earrings and tan boots. I wore a night pantyhose with it. I was planning to wear the think black pantyhose but I tore it while putting it on so had no choice.
I used MAC blue eye liner and smashbox lip gloss.

Holidays!

Holidays have kept me lazy. Met my close relatives and celebrated together-ness in all this blogging has taken back seat :)
Here is a simple outfit put together through some pieces I collected last winter.
I also got a chance to finally get the chubby sticks that I have been raving about. I got four pieces for 32 bucks which wasn't so bad afterall! These are slight smaller than the original size but just enough to experiment.





The colors are very subtle and you will need to apply a lot of the product. At least 3 coats will show some color. But the moisturizing affect is rather good. I was curious about this color which is not really in the pink family like most of the other three its called "a whole lotta honey". As I said, color itself is very subtle.
Overall though I am happy with the affect just about enough for me.
In the following posts I will make sure I cover the other colors as well.
Here are some more views for you....

Hope all you guys had a wonderful holiday season. Be sure to blog it !!
