Angela and Roi Vegan Handbag Mango Jacket , Banana Republic Peplum Top , Diesel Jeans , Angela & Roi Bag , Dune Shoes , ASOS Belt , Miu Miu Sunglasses It's always a goof time to make some positive changes in life and point out the ethical issues pertinent to the fashion industry - starting with the one that perturbs me the most - "stereotyping cruelty as luxury", which the fashionistas are stung with paying no heed to the excruciating pain and slaughter a poor life is inflicted to in the name of style and fashion. Just in case you're in the minuscule minority who doesn't know, I'm not the slave of fashion and certainly don't believe that style is above life of a helpless animal. As a staunch believer of cruelty-free fashion and to prove that vegan and ethical fashion is equally stylish, I am always on the hunt for all things stylish that are rightfully labelled 'vegan' and everything on this blog strictly adheres...
Let's face it, when it comes to shoe shopping, India is still miles behind and while Dubai boasts the world's biggest shoe store it still lacks the breath of collection and size options and very few options for vegans {Level Shoe District barely has vegan shoes}.

Paying homage to the last days of winters in the winter staple tartan print. While I do like those pleasant sunny days, winter is my absolute favourite season. Not the freezing, snowy winter that'll lock you down in the house, and terrorize you with the mere idea of stepping out, but the winter where just some basic layering with a blazer or even a denim jacket and a scarf will suffice, those winter days where you would love to sit in the balcony reading your fav magazine while sipping on green teas and enjoying the winter chill. So for today, one of the last such pleasant days {and evenings}, before the scorching heat sets in I decided to get out my winter staple tartan print and pair it with a denim jacket and clash with the leopard print shoes. The coral-pink-peachish nail colour from the vegan nail paint brand butter London will add a nice pop of colour and go well with my oxblood jeans. Nude lips and top knot will finish the look perfectly - casual yet chic is what I am a...
When you get the good news that you're invited for a Bachelorette Party in Goa what happens? You get incessantly excited. You start packing the perfect bag (in your mind) to ensure the Goa getaway is gangbusters. You think of sarongs, flip flops, hats, summer shorts, sunglasses (atleast one for every day), tees, summer dresses and a maxi, of course. Until it hits you, you haven't got a maxi. A comfortable maxi is ultimate summer holiday staple that I had been looking for since ages with no avail. I ransacked nearly every store but couldn't find the right one. With the most awaited party of the year a 'Bachelorette' in Goa, I just had to find one. How could I go for a beach holiday and not have a maxi? Since I couldn't find anything in Mumbai or Delhi, I decided to try my luck online and found just the piece I was looking for at Loft , USA. I've always loved their collection and with their petite options things just got easier. I ordered this online, a...
A couple of weeks ago I unexpectedly landed on shopbop.com (I've seen their online store a couple of times earlier) and thought I'd dish up a bit for some window shopping and the seemingly harmless browsing ended up in an indulgence (towards the end of the month when the bank balance was already not hitting the right notes). Marie Claire Spain Now before you start raising your brow, in my defense I am really bored of my wardrobe and it needs some serious overhaul. So when I spotted this Tibi emerald green top with (what looked like) subtle bling and unstructured cut, it suddenly became a 'must buy'. I mean how could it not? Besides while browsing online I came across this spread (of Olivia above) and it inspired me into buying the emerald green bling. Since I was already buying something, I had to buy a basic tee (seriously I barely have them, I always loathed tee but lately a sudden discovery of their practicality compelled me to reconsider ...
Talking of shoes, the shoe obsession never seems to cease. Don't know what is it about shoes that keeps me obsessed by it (I am speaking on behalf of womanhood here, and those of you who are "unmoved by shoes", you really are the "blessed souls"). Just found this picture in my photoalbum, I bought these Kurt Geiger wedges online sometime back. When I spotted them online while browsing through KG website, I was totally moved by the colour of love and just couldn't resist buying. Yet to figure out how would I wear them to that would do justice to their beauty, but for now its mere presence is enough to keep me happy. What's your shoe story?
