Red and Gold summer..

Hello everybody!

its almost been a month since my last post(!!) and you have no idea how pathetic i feel about it! but now that i'm finally finally done with all my project submissions and exams and am a free bird for 2 whole months, I've vowed to post much more often! :D
there are so many different looks I've been waiting to experiment with for summer, and i hope to get as many as them possible to you right here, throughout these following weeks!

so now coming back to this post, for my first look of summer, i decided to stick to a conventional summer attire which basically includes bright shades, floral patterns and short dresses:

 Use of bright shades : 
shades like pink, red, electric blue, purple,etc, make wonderful colors for summer as they get you into the whole feel of the season!

floral patterns:
floral patterns in different color combinations and styles make any apparel look all the more 'summery' and girlie! 

short dresses:
short, pretty and graceful. sounds like the perfect combination, doesn't it? there's a reason why girls all over the globe love summer dresses!

gold accessories:
also, another thing I've chosen to incorporate in this style is the use of golden colored accessories. i love the way the colors red and gold compliment each other and hence opted for a golden butterfly necklace and a golden owl ring for this look!
I've also used a black and gold belt with a butterfly shaped buckle which adds to the charm of the whole dress!

schoolgirl shoes:
i hated wearing school girl shoes back in school and wondered why there wasn't a better substitute for them, like peep toes or ballerinas! :P
and now, i'm in love with them! ironic, isn't it?!
i bought a pair of beautiful brown schoolgirl shoes at a sale this season and was eagerly waiting for an occasion to wear them, and finally i did get one! these shoes, i feel, compliment the summer style perfectly and add an innocent charm to the overall look.

In The Mood for Black.

With the arrival of summer, short and bright summer dresses make an entry into the fashion scenario!
I've never stuck to conventional fashion rules, nor have i ever felt the necessity to do so.
Hence, this time I choose to experiment a little bit with my first post of the summer season, and ended up donning a lot of black(one of my favorite colors when it comes to outfits)- black shorts, a black jacket and black shoes.
shorts make the perfect bottoms for summer, and this jacket makes the whole outfit look chick and classy, making it the perfect wear for daytime outings as well as for evening parties!





jacket: shoppers' stop, shorts: cotton world, tank top: lifestyle, shoes: local store, bracelet: sia, aviators: rayban

hope you'll liked the post :)

will be back soon with a lot more trendy and fun summer posts! :D
