Accessories and Small Beauty Haul!!

Hey guys! Hope you are having a nice weekend! :)

Here is a small haul where I have majority of accessories and few (only two) beauty stuff. I recently picked these and thought of doing an accessories haul.





I loved these rings, somehow I never used to get any cute and funky rings and got really happy when I found these just for 5INR/- each!! Haha!


Then I have two pair of earrings, the heart one's are so cute and they have 'I LOVE YOU' written on them.


The other one has deep blue almost black crystal which I liked! I have a lot of earrings, so wanted to get something different this time.


 Then the glittery bangle type things are actually hair ties which I wanted after I saw one of my friend's wearing these! Great to just add a nice glitter and detail to any boring or simple outfit! Got 5 pieces in a pack for 20 INR/-

Then I finally got the Nivea Fruity Shine in 'Pink Guava' (129 INR/-) and the Garnier Tinted Eye Roll-on for (99 INR/-). Now I want to get more of the fruity shines!! :D



I won in a Giveaway! :D

Hey guys!
Okay so I wanted to do a post on this since Monday, that's when I got the package! :D
I came 3rd in Rashmi Di's Giveaway, about which I have posted last month!

When I saw my name I just couldn't believe that! Yeah, just because I have never won in any giveaway before, and that too a product like The Balm's Hot Mama Blush!! Yay!
And this is a post where I want to show you guys what I got and also say "Thankyou" to Rashmi Di (although I have said that to her so many times already!).

Wardrobe Essentials Part-1!

Hello guys! Surprised how I am not posting on a weekend and on a weekday?!!  :P
I sort got over with an important subject's work, feeling SO relieved! And guess what..I did a small (very small) shopping today! :)

Okay, so like I have mentioned in my 'Outfits Inspiration-Back to Basics' post that I will be doing a detailed post on things every girl should have in her wardrobe. Okay here, may be I am not considering younger school going girls, since that is the growing age and we grow out of our clothes really fast.
So this is more for once we get to our present body type or when we stop growing.

And I came across this quote on Pinterest and that's true! I used to dress really in a boring way before but FINALLY I have realised that I need to prep up my style (and that's what I've been doing nowadays).



I thought of doing this post in parts so that we don't miss anything and it doesn't become one of the posts with photos only.
So Part-1 is about very very basic essentials:-

1. Well fitting and comfy Inner Wear:
Well we all know what I am talking about. Every girl should own several pairs of fresh, well-fitting and comfortable bras and panties. Then again you can get the various types in that too. But they should always be to size and not too loose or tight.

2. Camisoles to wear underneath shear clothes:
The next important thing is a camisole in black, white and nude colors are must. They are good for layering or wearing under any shear top or even during hot summers go for cotton camisoles. They can be with thin straps or like a tank top.

3. Comfortable Pajamas and loose t-shirts:
Now this one I just thought of mentioning. One should have a comfortable pair  of pajamas or track pants or shorts with t-shirts to wear at home and as sleeping clothes.

4. Tank Tops-
Tank tops can be worn either on its own or layered with a cardigan, blazer, shirt and in many other ways. One should have various colors of these!



5. V-neck T-shirts:
Now again if tank tops are not your thing one can go for simple v-neck t-shirts. They look good on everybody and can be layered like tank tops. Black and white are a must! Then one can go for other colors.(I am going to buy some soon, don't have any!)



6.Dark Wash Jeans:
Jeans is something we all love wearing (okay, some may not).
Every girl should have a nice pair of dark wash jeans, and it can skinny jeans or straight-cut or even bell-bottomed. Then you can go for other shades of denim, light washed, black and so on.



7.Trousers:
Trousers give a very nice sophisticated look to any outfit. Black and grey is a must. It should not be tight like skinny jeans. These are perfect for office wear over white shirt and a blazer! :)






So those are the ones I thought are very basic and I'll continue the list in another part. Don't want this to be a super long post.
And also feel free to add anything you thing is very very basic if I have missed anything out.
And also what you think about this post. :)

Trends I am LOVING- Studs!!


Hey guys! 
How's your weekend coming up? I was glad to know that some of you liked my previous post. As you might know that I am always searching for some fashion inspiration to get some basics in my wardrobe. I came across this one trend which I think is so cool and everyone can wear it depending on our individual personalities. The trend I am talking about is STUDS!! 

Yeah, studded stuff is everywhere,atleast on the Blogosphere and Pinterest if not that much in India (arghhh!!). But if we are lucky enough to lay our hands on any of these beauties or something similar to these we should not leave a chance!! :D
We can see studded pants (details, of course), on hand bags (I have seen studded bags!!, where do they get them?), shoes- be it flats like loafers, converse or even heels, to jacket or shirt collars and even studded nails!! :O :D
So here are some things which are my picks from this trend, I would love to get something with studs but something subtle. Take your own pick!
And for more, follow me on Pinterest- http://pinterest.com/beingpretty/







So cool!! Isn't it?? :)



I am in love with these studded converse and loafers!!! WANT!!


I guess I have seen a girl in my college with a black bag with studs!! :O
LOVED this one!

So do you guys have anything with studs? Do you have any idea where I'll get studded things in Mumbai? I am thinking about Colaba Causeway (not sure though),will be going there in few weeks! Yay! You are going to get a fashion or accessories haul soon! :D

Outfits Inspiration- Back to Basics!!

Hey guys!
I was getting a feeling of doing a post or something these past two days, have lot of college work to do but then huh, we all need a break after a very hectic week!

So as you might know from my previous Outfits Inspiration Posts that I am really (really really) getting into fashion and all that, and by that I mean I watch more of outfits videos, fashion hauls and stuff like that on Youtube! From Youtube, I remember gawd, those girls on Youtube shop SO much!  (When will I, God?)
 I already have a "wish-list" of things I want and need to buy (I lack lot of essentials in my wardrobe) and come Diwali and I'll be going crazy!! Heehee!! :D

And obviously to build a wish-list, I have collected some pictures of the things I want. So here's the Back To Basics with just the photo inspiration! I will do a detailed "Wardrobe Essentials Post" since I have watched lot of those videos too! :D

I really need to get some plain white t-shirts!! I have really less white and no plain t-shirts! They can be worn in SO many ways, now I know thanks to those Youtube babes! (I am getting a feeling of doing a "My Favourite Youtuber's to watch" video, what say??)



And I want to go Cardigan hunting once this super hectic September gets over (I have all final submissions this month. Weep!!). I am going to hoard Black, Grey and pretty colored ones! )


And I LOVE long-sleeve tops in solid colors, but I think I have only one grey one. And we seriously can't wear them if they are thick rest of the time here in India! Why God, why is it so hot over here??!!


What are your fashion essentials guys? Any fashion idol or something? :D

Thanks for reading! :)
