Outfit Inspiration- Travel (Flight) Outfits!

Hey there ladies...

I hope everything is going great with you all.. I am currently in a very excited state of mind since I am going out on a week-long vacation to the colder parts of India far away from this heat.. :)

So obviously..I was looking for some inspiration as we'll be going by flights, this is my 3rd time going by a flight, before that me and my family used to travel near by places.. But it's my 1st time when we'll change flights to reach our location, which when I got to know from my mum, I kind of freaked out..(yeah, weird me).
And that to as to add a cherry on the top, there is a time gap off 3 freaking hours between the 2 flights!! Yeah..so I am all ready with playlist on my Xperia and 2 novels this time! :D

Okay, so back to the main topic of outfits which are appropriate and comfortable to be worn in long flights or when you have a situation of changing flights like me..!

               
I like this outfit, all comfortable things, loafers-easy to walk around the airport, comfy pants and top and denim jacket to keep you warm, and a good bag.

Who says we can't have fun at airports, Loved this grey cardigan, cute top and bold red flats outfit!


Here's another colorful yet simple and comfy outfit.


Always, keep a good scarf with on flight. You never know when the need arises.



Go for basic t-shirts with cute cardigans or light sweaters, a bag and wedges..also you can add a nice necklace!

One can go for cute long-sleeved t-shirts, or layer them. Go for comfortable bottoms and bag big enough to carry your essentials.



I am going to do more travel outfit posts! :)

"Reader Request" Outfit Inspiration- Petite fashion!

Hey guys, I was thinking of doing an Outfit Inspiration Post since I haven't done one in a while and I am constantly looking for outfit ideas on Pinterest as I am building up my wardrobe (that doesn't mean I have started earning haha).

Today I got a request to do such a post for Petite ladies. Here's what it says:
"what should I wear im petite 44ft 10inches yet my waits is 30.. help me to dresss pleaseeeeee"

I would like to tell you girl that I am no tall and sexy model type (haha), my height is I think is around 5'2" or 5'3", my waist being almost 32 (almost because 32 fits me little loose but 30 I was probably 4 years ago and that's too tight on my waist now) and I am not fat so I am considering you are as well..just short which may make you look a little plump.

Now one may ask "What do you need to qualify as petite?" There’s no law out there (yet, haha) but the hard and fast rule is you are considered petite if you are 5’4″ and under. So that means...I am petite too (viola! I didn't know!) I thought petite is someone who is tiny in height and skinny as well which I am not. 

 So here's your wish fulfilled dear (although I would have appreciated if you'd mentioned your name.)

I have some points along with images (and their sources, check out the sites too for more) you can consider while dressing.

                         Try to wear outfits where you show off your waist, use belts, go for skirts which will give more flare and shape to your body and sinch in the waist as in above's outfit.

Play with prints and colors, go for dark wash jeans if you are heavy on the lower part. I wear both dark wash and light wash jeans, you can too. Don't be scared to experiment, just keep trying you'll eventually find what looks best on you. :)

If you are a working lady, nice fitting pencil skirts are great option which again will accentuate your waist. Go for well tailored looking and colorful shirts like the one above. Add a blazer for more dimension. If not skirts go for high-waisted trousers. Don't forget the heels!


Start simple if you are not so sure, get some basic t-shirts that are well fitting though not too tight. I prefer getting such t-shirts from Malls, like where they have offers like 3 for Rs.399/- or Rs.499/- and you can try on and see.
Once you have your basics right, bring in some fun layering pieces.


Go all black, play with strips, add a statement piece in bold color. The pic is Pretty self-explanatory right? Stripes are awesome way of adding a fun element to any outfit and can make one look leaner.


Bored of the Blue jeans? GO COLOR!
Get some really cool colored pants and pair them with basic tops and you are good to go! Get a dark maroon like shown or dark green if not sure of going for bolds like reds.

Outfit Inspiration- Easy Layering for Winter!!

Hey guys!
How's everything going? I am back to my daily routine since my college started from 19th this week. Back to being busy again!
And to add to it the winter is making is difficult to get up from a nice sleep every freaking morning! Although the last 2 days were not that cold, Monday and Tuesday were cold in the morning time!

So I am back with my Outfit Inspiration post and this time it's obviously about winter clothes! Now, since it doesn't get that freezing here in Mumbai we rarely see anyone in trench coats or boots, we can atleast have some fun with cardigans, scarves, jackets and all that!
p.s.- I still haven't figured out where will I get some nice cardigans or jackets in Mumbai without spending a bomb! If you know, PLEASE PLEASE let me know! ;)

I like the Cardigan and scarf paring, looks so cute and cosy! 

I love Burgundy, Oxblood, Maroon for fall! And I love her blog!!

Outfit Inspiration- Jewel Toned Jeans!!

Hello guys!

So I am doing an Outfit Inspiration post after so many days!! And today I thought about doing it on Jewel toned jeans which are IN this fall/ winter! I seriously want to get one colored pant. I am not the bright hot-pink pant person, I'd like to get something which will not go out of fashion and I can wear it whenever I want to. And if you think like me then this post is for you! :)

 I love how Wendy from Wendy's Lookbook styles her outfits! You'll love all of her outfits.

 I want this caramel/ light brown colored one!! I WANT!

I LOVE how Rati di from IMBB and Faux Pas styled her Burgundy and Deep Blue pants! I'll link both her outfit posts below the pictures. :)

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! :)
