Style, Fashion & Awesomness
Yup that’s right. Pink is for everyone! whether you are a man or a lady, balance your colors and look fresh out of the box! Pastels suit almost everyone and works wonders when you match them with your neutrals.
These colors can also be coupled with denims or darker colors.
Happy dressing!
The tie is an accessory that can make or break a man’s look. It all depends on how it is worn. Whether you wear it to work or for a formal occasion, the beauty of the tie comes out depending on the color, texture, fabric or pattern that you choose.
Below are a few rules to consider when you plan to sport that stunning tie!
– The tip of your tie should just about touch your belt line. A little below and it will look down right weird! Sometimes, the tie can be worn a little above the belt line but definitely not too short that it ends up looking cropped.
– The thin ties are TOTALLY IN! They look modern and are more stylish than the broad ones. The broad ties are more old school and work well for the oldies.
– The traditional tie-knot is called the ‘four-in-hand’. Works wonders with any shirt or suit style. Master the art and you are good to go! Have a look at the picture below to have an idea.
– Avoid the silly disney characters and bizarre patterns as they do not suit any look or personality. Go for plain colors and prints that work well with almost all your suits and shirts.
– The Tie Bar – Looks its best when worn the right way. Usually its worn between the 3rd and 4th button on your dress shirt.
– Match your ties well. This is important and can be a little challenging for some people. All you have to do is, pair cotton ties with cotton fabric shirts, a bright color tie with a subtle color shirt, a texture over a plain, etc.
– A finally, the bow ties! They are very much in fashion. Wear them with a dress suit and with an Oxford shirt, pullover and chinos if it’s more fun. Try making one yourself or just go for the readymade ones.
Many men have a good collection of ties.
Everyone has different choices.
The tie is a very flexible accessory for any occasion.
It adds class and pumps up the sex appeal!
Get more familiar with these rules and look “puuurfect”!
Happy Days! 🙂
While the summers inch in, I am dedicating this post to the gorgeous, sensuous and beautiful MAXI DRESS. Yep, these babies do the talking in all colors bright and subtle, all patterns big or small. They come in beautiful styles that would suit almost every body shape and the biggest advantage of the maxi is that, whatever the pattern is, it makes you look slim and tall!
However your figure is OR even if you are sporting the baby bump at the moment, these dresses are worth to die for! I am sure many of you would be updating your wardrobes soon with some good summer numbers so make sure you add a couple of maxis that work for pretty much any occasion.
Never mind the occasion, where a simple maxi and look your stunning self even if you are running to a mall to check out a sale……. to buy another maxi dress. 😀 haha!
Check out these styles below.
Give yourself an idea!
Annnd Voila! The “Radiant Orchid” has been chosen as the Pantone color of the year 2014!
Its beautiful, its eccentric, its got a whole lot of bliss oozing out of the palette which I’m sure many of us are going to incorporate in our style, wardrobes, home interiors and maybe even just a purple car! 😀
“An enchanting harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid inspires confidence and emanates great joy, love and health. It is a captivating purple, one that draws you in with its beguiling charm.” as mentioned on http://www.pantone.com
This particularly excites me because colors make me happy and they do bring out character and personality in a very vivid way. I bet the Radiant Orchid is going to be one really HOT selling color this new year and trust me, the different tones and shades in that palette are going to be put to use in a very innovative manner whether it is in Cosmetics, Clothing, Interior Design OR Automobile Design. You just never know 😉
The color has already been used on the Red Carpet, and even some designers have already incorporated it in their Spring 2014 Collection! The Radiant Orchid works well on both men and women. Infact, it highlights the personal color that each of us have because of the blend of cool and warm undertones of red and purple.
When it comes to beauty, shades of purple, pink and red work super as lipsticks specially on most skin tones. They can also work as simple nuetrals for work or for a casual brunch with your girlies. Nail paints as well as rouges will work wonders if worn the right way.
And when we talk about Interiors, it could be Home, Office, Restaurants or even Stores! The color can be put to use subtly making your interiors look stunning and oh so 2014!!
Lets give it up for — Radiant Orchid

We all have that one thought in mind which is very evident – MUST shop Unconditionally! haha.
But little do we know that shopping unconditionally can lead to a permanent wardrobe disaster as well as a big nasty hole in your pockets.. err, purses.
So to promote peace and simplicity, we “cluster” our clothes. A cluster is basically a group of clothes that compliment each other. Clusters work depending on your lifestyle. For example, if you are a 9 am to 6 pm working woman your wardrobe SHOULD mostly be of work-related or business-related clusters.
These also help you in choosing colors that match your personal color.
Clustering is the process of De-Cluttering your wardrobe. You will automatically see the harmony of colors that your wear everyday instead of going for that boring black and white everyday!
Along with your clothes you could also cluster your accessories! Make it easier for you to dress well, even when you are running late.
Loving my collection of accessories. Brings out my personal style in a very subtle way.
These can be worn with any outfit. They are timeless, trendy and uber sexy!
If you are a fan of accessories and lil things and don’t wish to look boring even if you are just visiting a mall, go for accessories that work with anything and everything.
You can look fancy even when dressed simple.
Remember, Simple is Sexy!! 😉
A glimpse of my Style File which I keep updating every time I come across something interesting in the fashion magazines and websites.
Maintaining a Style File can help get your creative juices and stylo-fancies goin’ super wild 😀
Every color has their “Spotlight” moment. Of late the famous mint green seems to be the craze among fashionistas and stylists.
Mint Green is beautiful, sensual and subtle. It works perfect for the Summers.
These are a few ideas to get you thinking more seriously about trying out this color on yourself. Its not too bright neither is it boring.. Go for it!
These days I have seen a lot of designers working with floral prints and patterns in their collections.
they always look great when worn correctly. I believe that there should be a balance in the entire outfit.
Its quite a challenge for alot of us to carry of prints that are so bold and colorful.
The combination I have put together is a good example of a balanced outfit for a lunch date, a business lunch (if you are in the creative and communication field), a pool party, or even a formal lunch with your boss. It all works well 🙂
The florals are doing the rounds right now and if you plan to update that wardrobe, buy one of these numbers.
Go Floral!
