Back in Black
With a little gold here and there. When was the last time i posted.? Well the the post title is quite apt and yus I'm back wearing all black.(You dont say?)
I've realized, taking pictures for the blog is a lot harder than well,starting the blog. Which explains my lack of posts. Finding a location,getting someone to take your pictures and sometimes not even being able to carry the camera around(See the size of my bag). result:nothing to post. :\
Got my brother to take these pictures(Forcefully of course)before i left the house.
Really into shirts and sheer as of now. :D
I'v hated gold jewellery for as long as i can remember. I was always more of a silver person. Oh but how i contradict myself. :P
Leopard print. I'v already spoken about my obsession with this print here.
All in all,this outfit pretty much defines my style. Comfort chic. Is that even a term? Errm.. but yea its the comfort that i look for in my clothing. The shirt being my comfort element here. I believe that you could be dresses in the fanciest of clothes but if you're not comfortable wearing them its just.. Bleh. Aaanndd also, how easily can this outfit be dressed up.? Throw in a fitting blazer with a pair of heels and voila a whole different dressed up look. I'm thinking of ways to style this outfit for the dressed up look while i write this. Next post maybe.? :D
Trying to do the I'm walking picture and failing miserably. Haha.
Fighting them wind.

Brown Delight
Hi lovely readers! Though this blog is about style and fashion, it will also encompass the things that i like other than clothes and shoes. This post will show you what.
As you can see, I'm quite a foodie. Stayed home today and had nothing better to do so i baked.! I'm no pro at it though. I only bake or cook for my own taste buds. :D
I had recently learnt how to bake walnut brownie and thought I'd share it with you. Its a really simple recipe and takes less than half an hour to bake. So anyone who's not really into baking but wants to try because lets admit it, we cant always run to Cafe coffee day for those sinful brownies, can try this. Really simple and easy. :)
Ingredients you'll need:
Melt the butter and add the ground sugar to it. Next, add the flour and the cocoa powder followed by the eggs,baking powder,vanilla essence and yogurt. Like this.
Basically theres no step by step method to follow here.. Yeah. Culinary advice from the clumsy cook. :P Just add in all of the ingredients to get a smooth chocolaty batter that looks something like this

Newbies.
Shoes make me go weak in the knees.
Last week when i was going through some online shops i came across these green platform shoes. It looked great. Especially the color. And when i looked at the price i was sold.! Rs.999($20 approx) people. Score.! Got them immediately and they arrived the day before yesterday. Its a wee bit small for me but i can manage. :D
The gold collar necklace was a gift from a friend from Mumbai. Gosh, i want to move there. If not for anything else,Shopping. It nearly impossible to find things like these here in Shillong. One of the reasons why i almost always shop online.
Deepika Padukone was on the cover of vogue this month and does she look hot or what.? I had recently discovered this Indian online shop that stocked brands like Aldo,Mango and Nine West. I was ecstatic of course since Shillong has none of those brands. Heck, we don't even have a mall here. Benetton is what we have closest to nice brands. Sucks i know. Anywho,I browsed through all the shoes and settled for a pair Aldo wedges. Went to checkout. Typed in my area code. "Cannot ship to this address.Pin code is not serviceable". Where do i live in? Narnia? :\
So disappointed.

Combat Baby.
Apologies for this delayed post.! I know i was supposed to do the outfit post with this DIY-ed shirt long time back. The thing is, Shillong's weather has not been so cooperative past few days. The rain, wetness and the cold didn't really allow me to wear this shirt without a jacket covering it. These pictures were taken after a heavy rainfall when the sun was shining just a little too much. So pardon me squinting in few of the pics. :) 
Wore the shirt with black jeggings. Its the same one that i wore here but black. (Told you they're super comfortable!) and black combat boots that were not only for the style but the utility. Its my rainy day shoes. Though it was sunny, you just cannot trust the weather here.

So thats it for today.! Hope you enjoyed the pictures. Will be back with a new post soon.:)

Rainy day randoms.
Lets talk about the weather yea.? I can be lame sometimes. Bear with me. :) Shillong is known to have all the four seasons in one day. Believe me, I've seen/experienced it. Lately though, its only been raining. Its the monsoon season so i'm not surprised but its actually cold. I don't know about others but i sure did feel the chill.(Actually had to wear one of my winter jackets today). Its July. Not supposed to be cold. But again, its Shillong. Not that i'm complaining. Staying in my warm bed with my laptop in front of me while the rain pours outside just seems the perfect thing to do but its stopping me from doing outfit posts to keep this blog going. But i did manage to get out of the house to run some errand.Met up with the bf for coffee and took some pics with my new cam. :) So here are some random pics of me trying to look cute with my poofy eyes. :P
And after 2 and a half minutes. This. :P
Have a good week y'all. Its pouring outside while i write this. Rain outside+warm bed = Bliss.
I'm off. Be back soon. :)

DIY: Sequined Peter Pan Collar
Hello lovely people.! I present to you my first DIY post.! I had finished this sometime back but got around to posting it only today because i just got my new camera. Wooot! Now that i have my own camera, i will post often i.e if my laziness doesn't take over me. :P
Ive been into peter pan collars a lot lately and got this lovely cobalt blue one tailored. You must have noticed the collar is not exactly peter pan-ish. My tailor screwed up that part. Nonetheless,it looks nice. So to jazz it up a little got sequins onto the collar to make the not-so-peter-pan collar stand out. It was quite a tedious task getting those sequins on and took me around 3 days to complete. Totally worth it.! I will do an outfit post with it soon to show you what it looks like when worn.
Be back soon. :)
