The versatile ones

Blouse: Thrifted | Pants + Belt: Promod | Blazer: Vintage | Bag: Zara

Shoes: Carlton London | Bracelets: Lifestyle + thrifted | Watch: Titan

Never underestimate the versatility of the pointed-toe pump - I made a mental note to self, when I decided not to throw away my purple shoes that remind me of the wicked-witch-of-the-west. I had to abandon them for some time, to take to a more blunt/ rounded toe. But truth be told, I never forgot about these babies... and then... the fashion universe conspired, J.Crew tied up with Manolo Blahnik, and voila, the pointed pump returned.

The gorgeous 5-inch high, silk beauties, made their way out and about town, to amp up a day-time outfit, for a couple of drinks with friends in the eve. And of-course in an utter attempt to colour-block, I wore them with teal green pants, and a brown jacket. The blouse, was like a mish-mash of all the separate colours I tried to put on, and kind of tied (literally - don't miss the pussy-bow on the neckline) everything together.

What's the versatile / favourite shoe!? 

The one you never want to part with.

Treasures

A light fashion read | To satiate my shopping urges

I'm supposed to be on a shopping detox - wardrobe wise. I've promised myself not to pull out my wallet at the first instance of an "Oh it's so pretty!" moment. One of the hazards of writing a style blog, is that sometimes you get into this zone - where you feel like you're entitled to go about buying stuff left right and centre, by virtue of what you do. It was time to pull the reigns on this obsessiveness. 

The past weekend was spent doing more REAL fun stuff - like spending one-on-one time with my sister, celebrating a late V-day, getting myself a new light read (aside from the serious/ heavier one I keep in my bag), soaking up on sun during the afternoon, and just re-arranging my own closet, and unearthing forgotten treasures.

The weather in this city has been dipping to new lows! That means it's crazy cold outside! And that means we've been spending a whole lot of time indoors. Then this weekend... the sun came out! So my honey and I headed to one of Delhi's beautiful parks for a little pre-valentine walk.

We stepped out, to see the magpies going about their business, to run around chasing pigeons, sipping cokes in the sun, and watching the spring, slowly creep in.

I pulled out this blouse - sheer blouses are great for a little sun bathing. But I was also totally head over heels for this tartan skirt that I had recieved only the previous afternoon. So I threw caution to the winds, and mixed up both these prints. 

And just for fun (read this naughtily like Russel Peters would say - 'and just for fun') I added a pull-over in a whole different colour! The prints mix, and colour blocking together... made for a heady cocktail. The flat lace-ups were essential for grass-walking.

It was a relaxed day, and I ran around the whole place looking like a school girl! What fun!

What did you think of this preppy outfit?
Would you mix prints, and colours?
