OOTY – Blue Blue with a twist

G’day all.

I thought I’d post an OOTD post today since I hadn’t done one in a long time.

I was heading out for lunch and a movie.

 

As you can see the pic is taken with my HTC.

I decided to go light on the accessories and keep all the focus on my upper half and the turban.

The top is from NUON, the earrings from Tanishq, The shoes from Lifestyle and the watch and sunglasses from polaroid. The pants are a brand that I don’t really remember. I don’t think it is available anywhere anyway since i’ve had it for almost 5 years. The turban is made from a neck scarf. When i say made i mean tied before i left the house.

Summer Shorts Trends

Here is a quick overview of the shorts that are making the rounds this summer.

Starting with my favourite.

The high waisted shorts.

The high waisted shorts have made a comeback and they look super cute. a gift for any woman who has a questionable waistline yet amazing legs.

another rule of thumb – when going for high waisted shorts, the higher the better. Because the higher the waist, the longer and more streamlined your legs will looked. This is because you are giving the illusion of longer legs by starting the waist higher than you normally would. Therefore this is an even better bet for those short women who aren’t just satisfied with short shorts and tall heels.

Mischa Barton seems to love the high waited trend.

The patterned shorts:

Floral patterns are liked by almost everyone, me being an exception to the almost rule. So when you don’t like floral patterns you can always go for other patterns.

Take a leaf out of Rihanna’s style book. Although I wouldn’t necessarily go for these shorts I would prefer something more defined and streamlined. But polka dots are always pretty. 

If you are a plump person wearing a slightly longer pair of patterned shorts remember that smaller patterns suit plump people while larger patterns suit petite people.

The formal shorts:

For those who are bold enough to wear a pair of shorts to a place where it required the clothing to be formal then these are the pair for you. Or maybe you just can’t get enough of the shorts trend, Or maybe it’s just THAT hot in India. Whichever your reason, the formal shorts are a lovely thing to own and a trend that isn’t just a trend but a style that is worth investing in.

The Jason Wu shorts (left) are a beautiful sleek pair. For some reason the grey make it more formal but less depressing (like most formal wear) but for my pair of shorts (right) I’d prefer it if it were more still and dark because I like the slimming effect it has on my waist.

The boyfriend inspired shorts:

loose, comfortable and casual. What shorts should really be. For those thinking that men always have had better and more comfortable clothing the new wave of boyfriend / menswear inspired clothing are a must have, i own a few in my cupboard myself. But a menswear inspired pair of shorts are something that is still on my wishlist for the simple reason that I can’t find a good pair anywhere where i live. for those with the body that can rock this trend, go out and pick up a pair.

This is also a good bet for those women who aren’t really used to wearing shorts and are just dipping their toe into the trend to test it. they are more comfortable and less revealing. So even if you find you aren't very comfortable going beyond these, they are still a god way to live the summer.

My favourite shorts trends are listed above. I hope you found this useful and I am sure that you can find these shorts anywhere in your nearby lifestyle / esprit etc.

Blouse – Not sure, think loft or something like that

Pants – Gloria

OOTD – Blue Elephant

 

Jaya is the name of this lovely lady that I spotted when I was taking pictures of the sunset at Wai, Maharashtra. Quite a nice ensemble, very me. I thought I’d share it with you and she very sweetly accepted to pose for the picture as well.

Thanks Jaya for gracing my humble blog.

It has been quite a while since i saw anyone in an all white outfit. A style that I love to hate and love to love, both depending on my mood. Must say that I love the necklace.

Must say that I love the way she brought the whole thing together. A nice indian touch. Hope you enjoy.

A blurry OOTD

I had to go for an interview. So I wondered, since i’m not going out much anyway, why not make this an OOTD day. The photo is taken with my mobile so i’m sorry, again, for the quality.

Spotting OOTD

So I was shopping in Westside for a new watch. I had seen a cute watch online and wanted to get my hands on it. The shopping trip was unsuccessful but i did find this lovely lady with this super cute bag.

I have to say it was the bag that made me run madly in her direction with my phone clutched in my hands.

I love the way she has accessorised the bag and the added cute scarf. Not to mention the cow keychain. Talk about the few members of Chennai who make this city beautiful and agree to be photographed. :-P

I had almost given up on the fashion blog idea because i had to keep taking photos of my OOTD every single time and they never came out well. I have to thank her for encouraging me again.

OOTD for shopping!

Definitely need to get a good camera, but considering i got a camcorder instead for the budget, i can’t blame anything but myself for being bad. I will definitely get a better camera soon and I will definitely shoot good pics soon. But till then bear with my grainy pathetic quality.

Sorry, I was in a really bad hurry so I couldn’t get all the pictures that I wanted. I definitely will net time, and i will use a good camera, soon.
