Winter Essential: Tweed it

Hats and Tweed. Winter Essential for surviving Delhi, stylishly of course. Shopping has been on in full swing and I can barely wait to show you guys all the great shopping I've done here in the right combinations, of course :) Met a couple of friends yesterday and, went for drinks to Cocoa Bar. A nicely done up place with the right amount of wall art. Dinner at Ai. Tappenyaki stir-fried Japanese food. Yum. That place is anyway gorgeous but the food really sealed the deal. Back to important issues, my essential Number 2 is my tweed cap. Team it up with a ruffled shirt and harem pants like me(slightly hobo-ish :D ) or even a dressy trench coat and booties for the extreme weather. I'm in love with hats and caps this season and I'm currently coveting these ones from Forever 21.

The bow pretty much does it for me.

This sequinny beret is so chic, you could even dress up a casual look with this one.
As for me, here are some pictures from my day out yesterday.

This one's from Ai. Love the ambience.

Shopping at Forever New is never disappointing and their Fall-Winter collection is to die for. Pastel pinks, peaches, whites, greys with embellishments, power shoulders and the perfect accessories. I got my hands on their lookbook after I shopped there yesterday and I shall share it with you soon. In the next couple of posts, I may have a surprise brewing for all my lovely readers so follow the blog and watch out this space for more.
XOXO

If you could dress up like Candy

We say that we identify ourselves through our friends. Indeed, I identify myself through them. They are few, chosen few who share my interests and who reflect the big part of me.

I love fashion and I am addicted to it. Thus basically, my very close friends share this love too.

And for today's post, I am featuring the style of my good old friend Candy. We were college friends. We used to trade outfits and run sack one's closet. We were of the same size for clothes and shoes. We were an exact reflection of taste. But as we matured, each has developed her own better style and identity.

We have not seen each other for five years now. But thanks to facebook we got connected again.

This photo was taken when we were in our second year college. This was the magic five [I and Candy were both in white]. I am not the shortest, mind you, but in this photo, I was bare footed because I played Titania, the queen of fairies in Shakespear's "Amidst Summer Night's Dream". The others were in high heels.

So you’ve no horse? But who said you can’t be cowboy?

I’m not certain if my love for cowboy outfits could be attributed to my childhood experiences. We used to have horses as the best means of transportation when i was very young. I remembered feeling like flying when the horse crosses some cliffs through a swift and powerful leap. The best ride I could remember was when I was five and was with friends going home after church. I felt too small against the horse yet too carefree to mind the heights; after all, I was giggling along with friends. The cowboy rider was our hero.

I really love horses and I dream that at least before I retire, I can get a horse as beautiful as this.

Thus my love for cowboy gears. I’ve got no horse. but that does not matter. I can collect cowboy hats instead. And cowboy boots too. Or just anything that’s cowboy.

Do you see what a beutiful cowboy hat I got for myself here?

Do you really think the giraffe was actually eating my backpocket? lol, no. It was just asking for more bananas. But i needed to take our photo together first before i could feed it for more.

I went tired feeding the girrafes and walking, laughing and roaming arond the Safari World that I needed to have a rest and share the seat of these glamorous statutes. They were really lovely.



So one day I went shopping for cowboy hats. Guess what? I had to travel four hours from the city just to get cheaper leather hats. But anyway, it was worth the travel since I also enjoyed visiting around.

I hope I don’t look stupid here but this is just the silly side of me. lol.

I did not notice the guy behind me was handsome [ssshhh, don’t tell my honey, lol] I was too preoccupied seeing the scenery while having the cruise. Also, I was too excited to get to the next stop and see the extremely huge sculpted penis lying inside the temple [so I was told].

But instead, I found myself climbing this Everest temple of Wat Arun. Whew! By the way, while going down the stairs, a French guy was taking photos of me. I bet he was up to write his next article “The Fashionable Climb”.


All these activities did not happen all in a single day, mind you. That would be too exhausting. But their common denominator, I was with a cowboy hat.

What about you? What are your cowboy collections?
