Hello everybody!

I’ve wanted to branch out to beauty and lifestyle along with fashion on my blog for a while now, and I figured, that now is a good time to do so since summer has officially begun.

In this post I want to share with you a few beauty related tips and tricks, which I follow, that you might also find helpful this summer.

       Moisturise:

   Moisturising is a must even during summer irrespective of what skin type you have. I used to always skip moisturizing during summer as I have oily skin and figured that moisturizer will just make it worse, up until last year when I was advised by the doctor to continue moisturizing with a moisturizer with SPF in it.

During summer I usually ditch my foundation for a good BB cream because I find that foundation tends to get quite cakey, on my face after a while.

BB creams are really light and make you feel like you have no make-up on, while giving you foundation like coverage which is great during summer.

Maybelline Clear Glow BB Cream 

Face Primer:

If however, on some days I need to put on a lot of make-up I always start off by using a face primer. It keeps my make-up in tact through out the day and gives my skin an air brushed look, which makes it look great in pictures.

Benefit The POREfessional 

Lip Liner:

During summer, I personally tend to stick to using light pink lipsticks or lip gloss, but on days when I would want to wear a red lip I make sure that I line them with a liner. This makes the lipstick stay in place all day without straying to my chin and cheeks.

LA Colours Lip Pencils 

Hair Serum:

Subjecting your hair to straighteners and curlers can damage your tresses in pretty much all the seasons, which is why I use a water- based serum to manage my frizzy hair. It also gives very soft beachy curls to my hair, which I prefer over super straight hair in summer.

Hello everybody!

The Indo- Western trend has been around for a while and the stunning combination of western and Indian clothes never fails to fascinate me.

Wearing an ethnic floor length skirt paired with a plain western top and accessorizing it well is one of the best and easiest, ways to follow this trend, in my opinion. Unfortunately I do not own an ethnic skirt, but have always wanted to incorporate a bit of ethnic styles in my outfit.

For this blog post, I wore a classic combination of a white shirt with a pair of denim jeans and to give it an ethnic touch, I opted for a little vest, which came paired with a kurti that I bought.  With a pair of white sparkly shoes and jhumkis, I had now added a touch of ethnic to my otherwise western outfit.

 Initially I had planed on wearing a bracelet for this post, but it completely slipped my mind and I realised it only when I sat down to edit the pictures.

Let me know in the comments, what you think about my outfit and how you choose to combine the  Indo - Western trend in your outfits. 

Until next time,

Hello Everybody! 

Despite the heat, frizzy hair and feeling sticky I absolutely love summer!

I love being able to relax with a cold drink, out in my balcony, and summer is the perfect time to take pictures of sun flairs for my instagram.

It is also the season, when I like to experiment with different styles and colours to incorporate them in my outfits.

This summer, I am completely obsessing over fruit prints and patterns and I think, they are perfect for transforming a simple, casual outfit, into a fun and quirky one. And not to mention, they look extremely cute! 

For this blog post, I am sporting a fruit print crop top, with a pair of jeans that make the look an easy-going one. The thing I love most about printed clothes, is that you can keep the accessorizing to a minimal and still get away with having a complete look!

Let me know what you think about the fruit print that is currently trending!

Until next time,

Hello everybody!

If you follow me on Instagram, you’d probably know that I absolutely love monochrome!

 During winter, I usually wear my black, whites and greys with a bold red lip and I’m good to go but in the summer I tend to neglect them and usually opt for outfits with bright colours.

However, this summer I’ve promised my self that I am not going to push my monochrome pieces to the back of my closet and have decided to incorporate a little colour to them to, so they don’t look too dull for the season.

For this look I wore a delicate, white, lace crop-top with my pleather pants, that I just cannot rave enough about, and added a pink sling bag along with a pair of matching wedges and earrings to go with it.

Let me know what you think about wearing monochrome in the summer.

Until next time,
