Hola!
I've sort of ditched my skinnies and slipped in to the most comfortable yet stylish option. If you've been following my blogs for a while you would know how much I adore the flare trend. When it comes to flare leg a lot of brands have made the options available as flare leg jeans, palazzos or simply floral flare pants.
Wide leg pants are amazing and I want everyone to know. No doubt the extremely tight pants I.e skinny jeans looked good but I've always felt a discomfort that would start bothering at the end of the day. Then came the flare leg back in trend and I ordered some in jeans basic black and blue shade, cotton pants, floral flare pants. I couldn't resist wearing them almost every alternate day. Although initially, I was sceptical about buying those thinking if the style would look good on me or turn out to be a fashion disaster. But I overcame my hesitation and took my biggest fashion risk yet: buying a few pairs of pants that were not skinny.
These wide leg jeans are so comfortable, the denim isn't stiff. Plus, your legs will feel amazingly breezy in a way that's impossible with crazy tight skinny jeans. I'm currently coveting this similar version from Topshop. Despite my initial hesitation about how to style them, they've turned out to be one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe. I pair them with my basic tee shirts and tucked in shirts, flat shoes or sneakers. It's surprisingly easy to incorporate these jeans into any outfit.

I paired these beautiful H&M floral wide leg pants with a black off shoulder top. It just gave me a perfect Bohemian vibe with comfort and chic look. These pants can be styled in various ways, any basic tee shirt or plain colour shirts can be pulled out easily. For a more fancy look, a pair of stilettos and earrings with minimal makeup will work wonders.

Flare and wide leg jeans are my kind of style, In today's post, I have paired two of my favorite style. Stripes can never go out of style and flare bottoms are in these days. They are super comfy and chic. I always prefer flared bottoms over skinny, it just makes me feel more relaxed, comfortable and stylish at the same time.
You can definitely rock your respective version of the flare but a pair of flare jeans is a must this season. I paired it with a cool stripped full sleeve tee, coordinated metallic footwear with a metallic sling bag. If you want more of a casual vibe then a white sneaker and a backpack would just be perfect for a girls day out.
This outfit is super versatile, it can be worn for a day out with friends, at college, for shopping, brunch or just a casual movie date. I've been watching my favorite celebs rocking flare jeans - Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and Alia Bhatt.
What I'm wearing - Jeans - TopShop, Tee shirt - H&M, Sling bag - Splash, Scarf - FBB

Ashton is a long-lasting, full-coverage matte lipstick in liquid form. This Liquid Lipstick’s ultra-saturated liquid formula delivers an intense amount of matte pigment in a single swipe. Just one application leaves lips with smear-resistant coverage that stays put for hours and hours. Although if you are eating something oily a little bit might just move out from the inner part of your lips. It may pass and stay put if you're sipping up a coffee or anything in liquid.
The only downside is the price and availability. But if you are looking forward to splurging this is a definite buy. I would highly recommend this lipstick for all the skin tones.
It's been ages I disappeared from blogging but guess what I'm back with a bang. So in today's post, I will talk about my all-time favorite lipstick Ashton from Anastasia Beverly Hills. It is such a beautiful shade that every time I put it on people literally bombard me with compliments and questions asking what shade are you wearing. For the review and swatches keep on reading.
I am such a big hoarder of lipsticks and pretty much collect every shade possible and currently, I'm obsessed with anything but Nude and Brown shades. Ashton is amongst my holy grail lipstick, I wear it almost every single day.
PRICE - 2,699 INR - 3100 INR ( Varies from site to site)

The packaging is very decent and similar to many other liquid lipsticks available. The applicator is super comfortable to use, it helps in for a precise application.
I've said enough how much I love this shade, it's a mid-tone yellow-brown. It has slightly warm undertones and settles down to a completely matte finish within seconds. I just love the formula it is extremely soft in texture, creamy and super smooth. Also, the fragrance is extremely mild. It dries out to complete matte within 5 to 10 seconds. The formula is not very drying but if you have chapped lips make sure you moisturize them really well. The lasting power is equally amazing as it stays for 6 to 7 hours without any touchups.
The only downside is the price and availability. But if you are looking forward to splurging this is a definite buy. I would highly recommend this lipstick for all the skin tones.

HOLA!!!
I still remember I started wearing palazzo pants with tees and tops when I was in the high school and since then it became one of my favorite styles. Especially during summers, it's the only outfit that I love styling without a second thought. So in today's post, I styled my favorite pairs of Palazzo, Culottes in different ways that anybody can rock.
It is very important to wear right clothes especially make sure the material that you chose be really soft and comfortable preferably cotton or linen during summers. It is very crucial to go with what makes you feel comfortable yet chic. I personally love wearing palazzos, they just make it light and comfy and also make me stand out. Florals are in this season and can be paired with basic tees or the print ones as well. Cullotes can be worn for formal as well as a casual purpose. Basically flared pants are what you need this summer.
So I have paired floral flared pants from Splash, Black culottes from H&M and ZARA, printed palazzo from Westside with various tops from basic to a sweatshirt and also shirts.
Hope you found it meaningful and useful and thank you for stopping by, Keep visiting.

Hola!
So this time it was even more special and warm. I really can't tell you guys enough how happy and blessed it felt. Also, Thank you so much for all the appreciations on the previous post regarding how we can bring smiles and change for those beautiful souls on the streets.
As committed I went back to meet them on a Sunday afternoon with my cousin. It was again a little weird feeling initially and a lot of doubts and thoughts but the moment I reached the spot got down the car I heard them saying, Didi!! Hi! Yes, They remembered. Sahil and Bhoomi they remembered. I was the happiest and bang!! all the awkwardness was gone. I was surprised to witness such pleasant welcome, not just by the kids but also their mother was happy with our presence.
This time I could connect more, got to know them even better. They've been living on the streets since they were born. But their parents made sure they send them to school so they don't lead the same life as they are now. I really respect their decision and the hard work they are putting in order to make a better world for their children. This time again I saw them playing with empty boxes, Bhoomi was draping herself with a dupatta and they were happy. I also got introduced to Manisha who was Bhoomi's friend. They both go to the same school together.
I have a funny moment to share, while I wanted to click a picture with Manisha my camera didn't work and soon she said, Oh Didi! My father has a better phone even in dark he clicks great photos and his phone is the best, better than yours. I don't know if you'd find it funny or not but I did. They do know so much about the world and keen to know more. What they need are opportunities, love, and care. I had such great fun moments, we had burgers and fries together and I was so engrossed in the moment that I forgot to capture them.
All I want to say is People! go meet someone like them, trust me you will feel the joy of happiness and everything you've been complaining about might just turn in to a blessing. There are desires that we just can't resist but what I learn from Sahil and Bhoomi is how to be happy no matter what the situation is. They are highly ambitious One wants to become a pilot and the other one wants to be a teacher, Guess what we can make their dreams come true by 'Donating'. I have decided to help Sahil and Bhoomi in getting books or whatever I can in my own budget. Maybe next time I meet them I can get them story books and hug them and smile at them I think that would be a beautiful contribution as well. Also, being a Teacher I can help them learn English. I don't say that its easy and It will make a difference overnight. But I do believe someday it'll change and they'll be better than me.
Also, as summer vacation is about to begin why don't we collect all the notebooks that still have some blank pages from our school going children and distribute amongst the children on the street. Not only notebooks but you can probably share the textbooks as well, instead of selling them unless you yourself are needy. Again if you have nothing to give Just smile, Hug them and make them feel equal after all we all are humans and this will make them the happiest.
I hope it made sense, Thank you for stopping by.

Hola!!
I'm so happy to be writing about something like this! It makes me happy and sad at the same time to witness such vulnerable condition of the children living on the streets. It was a great feeling to meet and spend some time with such great and innocent souls. One fine day, while shooting for the blog I encountered some of the huts on the street where I spotted these munchkins staring and thinking of what I was up to, made me approach them and chit chat.
At first, I wasn't even sure if they will interact or get scared or simply run away but to my surprise, they were the sweetest. I met siblings aged between 4-6 years and they were having a beautiful Sunday playing with an empty plastic water bottle and having so much more fun than what nowadays kids get while they play on their I pads. It was an emotional yet beautiful feeling of joy to see them so satisfied with their lives. Though they had no idea whether they'll be getting a meal for the day or will get water to shower or any basic necessity as such. Yet they were happy and enjoyed the moment. When I waved to them they were shy and not so sure about waving back but one of those gave a smile! and that made my day. We had a little interaction where I could shake hands, gave them some cookies, and sat with them clicked some photos. I shared my flowers with them. They were really excited to pose in front of the camera and how beautiful their smiles were!
You must be thinking whats the point I want to prove by stating all of the above? well! I want to request all you privileged people out their to help these poor souls. They deserve so much better in their lives. They deserve the education, toys, chocolates, and everything else that we got as kids and that our children get from us. Cant we just help them and give them little joy of happiness? I'm not asking you to buy branded clothes for them but you can always donate the stuff that's good in condition and you no more use it, don't throw them or exchange it for better things such as clothes/vessels. Buy packs of biscuits and give them trust me they love having stuff like that and who doesn't love chocolate? its just they don't have a choice to get some.
Do not give money to kids, I repeat Do not hand over cash to them unless you spot their parents along and wish to pay for their clothes, uniforms or any other education-related issues.
What if you have nothing to give or donate?? You can always give them a hug and a smile!! They'll be more than happy. I've decided to spend at least a day or two in a month with such kids on street and spread happiness. Let me know what do you think about it and how would you contribute to their better life.
Hope all of the above-made sense! Thank you for stopping by, Keep visiting.
