Indian Ethnic OOMPH!

When it's Indian wedding season taking over, you can't miss getting all dolled up in your beautiful ethnic outfits.

That's how my initial whole week of the month was spent, celebrating the nuptials of my friends. Back to back functions, no sleep, ganging up & chilling with friends & of course my favorite part- dressing up all Indian & ethnic with that OOMPH, *sob* I do miss all that fun now! :/ #tbt

So here's sharing the look & what I wore at the wedding. Details below: 

                                   

                

BOTTOM: The lehenga you see here along with dupatta in net fabric is what I bought ready made from a store.

UPPER: Rather than going with a regular cropped blouse with it, I thought of pairing it with a long kurti, for which I bought this brocade fabric in similar shade of orange & got it designed for me.

ACCESSORY: Keeping up with the ethnic look & colors, I accessorized it with a designer rounded & embellished clutch (purchased from an exhibition in Delhi), a golden pair of carved earrings, finger ring & matching bangles.

STYLING TIP: 

Look 1 -With Dupatta
Just in case you are thinking to carry a similar dupatta with this kind of full necked long kurti look this wedding season then there is no need to accessorize it with any heavy neck piece, your dupatta along with ear piece & other accessories would just do perfect.
Look 2- Without Dupatta
But if you are planning to go without a dupatta in this outfit, then you must jewel around your neck & accessorize it with a heavy necklace too, to give you that royal Rajputana look. :)

For all the dolls, its time to flaunt your desi-ness this wedding season leaving an OOMPH statement! ;) ..........Stay tuned for more to come. 

Monochrome in a Check Print!

In sync with my last post as i mentioned, I am featuring casual styling in printed outfits.

As we all know monochrome & check are forever in fashion & can never go out of trend, provided, as I have been stating, one knows how to keep the balance of the overall look & style.

This one is about monochrome check printed divider dress & how you can simply & casually flaunt it.

If you see it closely, its a complete single outfit which isn't actually open ended at the bottom but it's a divider dress.

PURPOSE: For all those girls who are looking to wear a casual yet feminine above knee length dress at a college/ shopping day/ while hanging out with friends but on some days are not comfortable sporting a skirt, this kind of divider dress in your wardrobe would just solve your concern & will give you the look you desire. Also those who have a very lean figure & looking for dresses for their body type, must go for this kind of lose fitted from top & bottom dress for casual styling.

STYLING TIP: With a monochrome print as I said you can never go wrong in styling. Team it up with your casual no heel bellies/ sneakers ( my bellies are from Stelatoes) & any single colored regular big hand bag ( the one I am carrying here is from Baggit) & you are good to sport your casual yet stylish look.

This again is not so expensive outfit (just for INR750) which I bought from a same store at GK, M Block Market in a sale season as i mentioned in my previous post too.

My Personal Shopping Style:  I am not a restrictive thinker when it comes to shopping. I can shop from everywhere & anywhere, all I go for is a look of the outfit & it has stand out for me while wearing it whether it is from a local store/ street market or a high end brand. What matters is your sense of choice, a right amount of confidence to carry an outfit, balance in your styling & of course that OOMPH to turn the heads on. ;) 

Its a Printed Dress Syndrome!

Hi readers!, Thank you all for showing such a positive interest & love for my first post on the blog. 

Keeping the OOMPH SYNDROME rolling, this post & the other one following will be all about bidding goodbye to our summer wardrobe. Winters knocking down the streets, we all are surely unpacking our furry & cozy dresses, jackets, pullovers, boots etc whereas its time to bid farewell to our summery dresses & clothes.

While shoving inside my summer clothes too, I came across two of my latest casual outfits in different prints (for another outfit with monochrome print come back to checkout the upcoming post) which I think is a must have in any girls closet who always like to keep up with basic casual chic styling & is looking for some not so expensive summer dresses to wear at college/ at shopping/ when hanging out with friends.

Here I am sporting a look in printed frock style pleated dress which gives a cute feminine statement when styled with balance.

If you see this back zipped dress, it's in all over dense print reflecting the earthly tones of three colors ( peach, grey & white) so I preferred to keep it more casual as it is best to not to accessorize it much. A bag (hand bag/ sling depending on the occasion), wrist band (metallic or single colored)/ watch, & heels matching any color tone of the dress (not too high for keeping it casual) would do perfect justice to this kind of outfit. I have worn it with a pair of dual colored symmetrically bisecting heels from Jabong.com. 

While adorning yourself in any outfit with all over print & to keep it simple & not to go overboard, you can keep this look-balancing personal style tip of mine in mind.

I bought this dress just for INR600 from a local store in GK-1 M Block market which is one of my favorite markets to shop in Delhi as all the shopaholic girls of Delhi know that you can get hands on some of the awesome local, branded as well as designer stuff (including clothes, accessories, bags etc) here that too in all the price range falling within the brackets of low to high. 

Smart Shopping Tip Here: Ladies just in case if you are planning to do some street side shopping here, don't forget to sleeve up on some of your bargaining skills, it does work here! ;)

With such a pricing, girlies isn't it a pocket friendly look to spot your cuteness OOMPH? ;)
