Flannel Love

It’s a mad, plaid world.

Apart from florals, plaid was considered one of the trademark prints of the 90’s. This country girl-inspired pattern is a popular choice nowadays. I can wear plaid all year round. Its one of my favourite prints. Plaid shirts, or flannel shirts as some people call them, are so versatile and can be worn in a million different ways. And don’t forget that they’re comfortable, cozy and usually inexpensive.
Here is my look!












Flannel Shirt: Hues (Bandra); Skater Skirt: Forever21; Sunglasses: Local Kiosk; Nude Wedges: Zara
Bag: Only

I decided to tuck my flannel into a high waist skater skirt as it defines your waist really well, and doesn’t show too much skin. Nude Wedges and classic sunglasses play on the contrast between the preppy, tucked in shirt and the distressed skater. You all know how I love skaters. The reason I love them way too much is because They’re easy to wear, they can be made casual or more dressy and they’re comfortable. Skater skirts are so versatile! I love all of the options they bring along.

I am planning to start blogging about food recipes and fitness from next month. I am so exited to share this new space with you guys.

Reimaging!









































Dress: Mango; Floral Trench Coat: Zara; Shes: Zara; Earrings: Vintage

When I talk about reimagining clothes, I'm not even talking about crazy things like using dresses as skirts or altering a garment or anything like that. I'm talking about simple things.  I had such a limited view of a garment that the way I saw it on the rack was the only way I understood I could wear it.  What I learned from my stalking escapade was that I had more control of the clothes than I thought, even without alterations.

 Don't take a garment at face value.  Don't disregard an item because it's too baggy or too long.  Play around with clothes and see if you can make them work for different scenarios. Just like the way I am playing this coat with my casual red dress. These two pieces are so versatile, trust me I can pair both of them in 10 different ways. As you can tell, there are a LOT of options you can use to make a garment work for you.

Also don’t be afraid to wear light and colorful hues, you can a la Blair Waldorf. – pastels are one of fall’s surprising trends so feel free to use a piece or two from your spring and summer wardrobe for your layering needs. Being a girl has its perks and disadvantages. For one, shopping is much more fun because women’s style and fashion is more varied compared to men’s and there are more style, prints, patterns, colors and designs to choose from.
Until then, go play with your clothes!

It All Happens For A Reason!







Denim Shirt: Zara; Shorts: Kink; Sunglasses: Tommy Hilfiger (Men); Shoes: Zara

A denim shirt should be a staple in every woman's wardrobe, it's a basic piece of clothing with endless ways to wear it. If you don’t already have one, go out and pick up one. Seriously. Do it now. Whether you pair yours with shorts to rock the casual look, wear it with a dressy skirt and heels, or throw it over your bikini and hit the beach, it’s clear that a basic denim shirt is the wardrobe’s MVP.

 Just like you can use a pair of jeans to dress up your look or keep it casual, a denim shirt can do the very same. It's all about how you wear it.
Here is how I styled mine for a casual day look while I was travelling for a short getaway last weekend. I decided to keep the top two buttons unbuttoned and the sleeves rolled up and paired it up with a high waist silver buttoned white shorts as they are the most comfortable to travel with.

I am looking forward to try the denim on denim look as well. Its all over the runway this year. According to me you need to be a little careful when you opt for a full denim look. The trick to make this work is combining different shades of jeans, for example, a light wash denim shirt with a dark wash pair of jeans. Tuck one end of the shirt inside the jeans for an effortless look. When I try this I will surely post a picture of the outfit on my Instagram and Facebook pages so you guys can get a clear idea as to how to style it up.

Trust me girls there’s nothing more classic, or more comfortable than a denim shirt. Plus, figuring out how to wear these wardrobe workhorses is pretty much a no-brainer since they go with everything.

Also I wanted to tell you guys that my Instagram account named nehavora has been hacked since last week. I tried my best to get it back but it did not workout in my favour. I did not know that losing an Instagram account would upset me so much. After trying hard for a week I gave up and as we all say life goes on so finally made a new one whose username is ‘nehakvora’. I believe that everything happens for a reason and maybe even this happened for one. Kindly unfollow my old username: nehavora and start following me on ‘nehakvora’ on Instagram.

Much Love,
Envy
