The little world of fashion!

Your style is basically WHAT YOU choose to wear, HOW you wear it or carry it.
BUT I have yet another mode of expressing my fashion sense now.
My 21 month old son !
Though I could have got more creative if this new canvas was a girl
 but believe me it is one big task to get him to dress up, even in the basic jeans and tee. :))
Anyways this may not be a fashion post exactly, I warn you..
My model has posed for my camera and those very rare moments I would like to present before you...:D
 ( Please pardon this urge of mine to flaunt my naughty tyke )

At 18 months he's already modeling for a mock car show! ;)

This was his 14 month old avatar, my hip-hop star! :D

Dot your Eyes and Cross your Hearts

As a tiny tot we were reminded time and again " DOT your 'I's and Cross your 'T's" weren't we?
Even then the words 'DOT' and 'CROSS' made a completely different meaning in my head.
I just loved the Polka dotted dress waiting for me at home while I sat in class in that same boring uniform everyday of school. CROSS my heart I have loved Polka Dots all my life..:D
I have a perfectly darling Black and White Polka dotted off shoulder little dress waiting in my cupboard..Its waiting for me to fit back into it..SIGH!
It will take some time for me to shed this post-baby bulge and reclaim that hour glass figure to sport such a lovely dress..BUT I REFUSE to give it away! :|
What say guys? I will fit right back into it some day, right?
Until then I will 'EYE' other polka dotted dresses and the hot bod's wearing them..

Lady in Red

To many ' Lady in Red' is that famous Chris De Burg song...
For others 'Lady In Red' is Julia Roberts
To some Lady in Red may also bring that cartoon character in mind...
But recently I conferred this title on one of my dearest gal pals..
You have met her as Ms. Inky Pink...
but she makes Red work as beautifully too, rather gorgeously!

It doesnt have to be an expensive dress to make RED work....

To beat the October heat she has dressed up in a simple off-to-GOA look for you....

ROSES are RED..:D

And you cant miss the well-styled hair and eye make-up again! :D

Baby Pink

Here's a cute little friend I have who aspires to be a top Bollywood actress some day....

She may not be a native Indian but her heart belongs here and how?!

Mention Bollywood and she can show you some dance moves that even our divas will be stupefied..

And I am not exaggerating...

Here's the baby in her favourite colour PINK...:)

                                                   Pink & White can never go wrong can it?

   I've always believed the sweet innocence and naivety within shows through one's eyes. What do you think?

 

  

Simplicity can go a long way some times. She made the simple school girl look work didn't she?

She wore a 'Just Casuals' whit shirt with a Baby Pink knee length skirt and Converse. A dash of pink accessories and she was good to go...:D

Smoky Eyes

I have some thing to confess.
When it comes to make-up I score a big Zero.
However I do love Kohls and eye-liners.
I feel naked without earrings and the same goes for my eyes.
Without the liner and kajal I can never step out.

At the behest of a fellow blogger and follower I decided to bring something to this blog that would be helpful in grooming myself a little bit more too- A small little lesson in make-up. I just love this trend of eye make-up that  is doing the rounds. Smoky Eyes!

oooo how it makes those beautiful eyes look seductive. A whole new personality surfaces...
So here goes Rose aka Ms. Inky Pink  tells us how this is done.
She works with a very basic professional eye make-up set from Kuwait.
But you may find many lovely ones with Chambor / Maybelline she says.

Step 1. : You need a Mettalic Eye Shadows Pallet and an applicator.


Step 2 & 3: You will need to cover the eye lid and the area under the eyebrow with a base of the metallic white you see in the left top corner of the pallet. 
Then only the top of the eyelid gets a coat of the lightest shade of silver on the pallet ( Top right corner) And the eye will look like this..

Step 4: Then proceed to apply the darker shade of silver on the eye-lid (Centre of the vertical row of silvers in the right hand corner of the eye make-up set)
Moving the applicator from the inside corner of the eye to the outside in smooth strokes but stop in the middle of the eye. Like this..
 

 We are trying to achieve a gradation of shades from dark to light metallic silver beginning from the inner corner of the eye-lid to the outer corner.

Step 5:   Then take the darkest charcoal silver shade on your applicator and apply it on the inner corner of the eye-lid with smooth but short strokes. Like this..

 

Now we are almost done. She has taught me the simplest method of achieving the smoky eyed look.

Step 6: Give the finishing touches with a wet waterproof eye-liner . Trace the shape of your eye on the upper eye-lid and from the outside on the lower eye-lid and it will look like this...

Step 7: She shapes the brow with a black Givenchi kajal pencil to enhance the smoky look and to refine the shape.

And our model Riya Alizadeh looks like this..

Wearing a day eye make-up  done in a similar style but working with lighter shades Riya looked like this....

She is pretty, isn't she?

Miss Inky Pink

One Sunday Brunch at Hardrock Cafe my friend decides to dress in pink and white. And that reminds the foody in me of only one thing. A tall glass of Strawberry and Cream..:D

Say HELLO to Miss Pink!
You may just see her quite often here. She is quite a fashion victim like myself and is equally crazy about being on both sides of the cam'. :D Rather she's a tad bit crazier I could say.
Don't miss the hairdo. ;)

Pink is one of the many colours her real name is available in! Hehehhehe.
Any guesses what might be Ms. Pink's real name ? :P

Call her by any other name, she wouldn't look less sweet, would she?.
 I'm not promising any PRIZE for a good guess but do give it a try!!! :D

She's wearing Inky Pink top from Iran, Pants: Pune Central, Bangles: gift from Kuwait, Earrings: thrifted, Hello Kitty Bag: Mahabaleshwar Market
Venue: HardRock Cafe, Koregaon Park, Pune.

I love my India

‎31 states 1618 Languages, 6400 Castes, 6 Religion, 29 major Festivals &ONE COUNTRY
I AM PROUD THAT I'm an INDIAN...
so an extended celebration of the 63rd Independence Day at my blog.

What did I wear to salute the Tricolour on 15th August 2010?

THIS....

And my gal pal wore the tricolours this way! :))

You can check out my previous ode to Independence Day here
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL..:D

Dots & Nets

Since the time Coco Chanel transformed BLACK into a fashion statement, the little black dress has become a quintessential element of every girl's wardrobe. Here's revisiting a little black dress with another fashion favourite; the dots. My friend here chooses to wear it with fish net stockings and basic black pumps.
By her personal fashion sense, she goes blingless.
 It's Vibzy's touch there that she sports those bangles in one of the shots!  ;)
I'm sure this is going to net a lot of hearts for her!! What say you??
