A Black and White world


{Jumpsuit - Koovs, Blazer - Forever21, Shoes - Asos, Handbag - Accessorize, Watch - Michael Kors}

It's no secret that I am an ardent lover of the monochrome palette, particularly black and white. This fascination is not limited to clothes only, though these two colors are universally flattering on any skin tone and body type, these colorless colors are representatives of the opposites. Black and White. Truth and Lie. Real and Fake. I don't like grey areas as much which lies in between, not talking about the color here.

Last week, I celebrated my 25th Birthday with few of my closest and dearest friends and theme of the party was Black and White with a hint of Gold. It was a fun night and I will soon share few pictures on the blog. A lot has been happening since then and I have been keeping busy but I will publish the post before the end of the week.

I wore this outfit for my pre-birthday shopping, seemed like a good idea to get in the mood of the theme. This lace printed jumpsuit is a perfect blend of comfy and vintage style. To make the look more contemporary, I paired it with an oversized jacket with a leather panel and chunky black wedges. And I am absolutely in love with red lips and how it brings out the glam in the simplest of looks. Red lips worn casually with messy hair, a simple t-shirt and denims is my favorite. A neat red pout has the power to make the most comfiest of clothes look chic and I have been wearing it quite too often these days. What are your thoughts of red lips and which is your favorite shade of red, let me know as I would love to experiment more with different shades of red.

And if you have not already taken part in the currently ongoing contest on my Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, what are you waiting for? All you have to do is share you Spexy (wearing spectacles) selfies and tag @stylefashionetc and @titaneyeplus along with the hashtag #SpexAppeal and you can win lots of goodies and vouchers from Titan!

Xoxo,
Stay Chic

What's in my bag (WIFW Edition)

Hello friends!

The Wills India Fashion Week frenzy is about to begin in a couple of days. I am gearing myself up inspite of being sick for past few days because I do not want to miss this season as Spring/Summer is my favorite! As I was packing my bag for the 5 days of madness, I figured if some of you are also planning to go, a post on what to carry to go through the whole day at the fashion week venue might be of help. So, here it is!

Apart from day-to-day items, I add on few more things that are very crucial during Fashion Weeks. The first and foremost are a pair of flats because running from one show to another in heels can take a toll on your soles and you can rest them in between by wearing a comfy pair of flats. You should also carry an external mobile charger, some gum, pen drive, roll-on perfume, sanitizer, band-aids, etc. To get a more detailed insight on what's in my bag during fashion weeks, check out the video below:




Being a blogger, I always carry my DSLR to capture all the fashionable moments and the street style during fashion weeks and I will be bringing this cute camera bag by October with me. 


Hope this post helps you guys! And if you spot me at the WIFW, come say hi!! We can take a selfie together :))

This season, I am attending the WIFW as a guest of PopXo.com and Wills Lifestyle. If you don't know already, I am guest blogging for PopXo, check out my Profile HERE!

Meanwhile, here's how you can attend Wills Lifestyle Fashion Week, enter this cool contest
  • Upload and Instagram a picture of you in an outfit that you would like to wear at the WIFW. We love your look... you win a couple pass to the WIFW. You just have to tag the below mentioned handles and add the hashtag.
  • Tag @stylefashionetc, @popxodaily and @willslifestyle
  • Hashtag: #MyWIFWLook
Who knows...you might be the lucky one. 

Bed Head - “This is Me” (Selfie to Barcelona Contest!)

"TIGI Bedhead has just gone live with the This is Me campaign. The brand known for its rule breaking attitude and cheekiness along with their fun and creative hair products already have a strong online social presence globally and have begun their efforts in engaging its Indian audience by reaching out to them. 

The TIGI Bedhead – ‘This is Me’ campaign stays true to the brand values and focuses on individuality by
encouraging people to acknowledge their true self. Personalities like renowned hair stylist Savio John Pereira; psychedelic painter Sameer Hazari; pilot, surfer and skateboard maker Spandan Banerjee; fashion stylist Chandni Sareen; Imaad Shah and Saba Azad of the swing band duo Madboy/ Mink and poi dancer Sumaiya Sayed have been featured into the campaign to represent the whole idea of expressing oneself freely. Each one of these personalities have pursued their dreams which is not your orthodox career options but something much bigger and better than that, something creative, something that drives them with passion. 

This is the part that drew me in, as I am myself doing something which is not traditionally considered as a career option especially in India. I know what kind of problems you have to face if you decide to pursue your dream. I tell people (Read relatives) that I am a blogger and the reaction I get from them goes something like this "Ummm...ok. But what do you really do, as in a job?".

The campaign video shows these guys in action and speaks of the core thought behind this campaign: self-expression. The video urges people to value their identity and individualism. The message implies that every individual is the star of a show that’s their own life and they are the only one in power to make or break it. The campaign just doesn't make a statement but validates it by featuring those who exemplify its meaning and worth.


Here are a few behind-the-scenes images I got my hands on!




Along with the series of videos that are being released on Bedhead’s YouTube channel, the Bedhead – This Is Me microsite also hosts a contest asking you all to get your hair styled in a salon just the way you want to, so as to express your individuality of style and get a selfie clicked with your stylists. The winner gets to go to a Music Festival in Barcelona, the biggest party this Summer with one of your best buddies. On the side, there is another incentive to this contest by which the most voted stylist will get to win a scholarship for a course at TIGI training academy in London, UK.

  

So, gear up guys! You can win an all expense paid trip to Barcelona with your best buddy! Could there be anything better than this? I don't think so.

Good Luck!"


American Swan Beauty & the Blogger! [Behind the Scenes]

As most of you must be knowing by now, I participated in a contest, Beauty and the Blogger sponsored by American Swan. The shooting was held in The Corinthians Resort and Club, Pune and it was scheduled for 4 days. Hosted by Cyrus Sahukar (who is a Laughing Riot btw!) and mentored by Anusha Dandekar and Miss Malini, the show is going to go live next week and you can see all the action happening for yourselves. Here are a few behind the camera shots for you!


There were 8 Bloggers and 8 Models who participated in the show and were teamed up in groups of two, one model and one blogger each team. The bloggers had to promote their models and the team as a whole had to complete the given on-ground tasks and in between all the chaos, the sneaky little brand, American Swan introduced their amazing new Swimwear collection.


These three swimwear were my absolute favs, the pink one in the extreme left was modeled by Leena Vishwakarma who was later teamed up with me and I am so glad to get to know the amazing soul that she is behind the camera. No infamous model-like tantrums, funny, hard-working, owner of never-ending legs and a beautiful person inside out. I shot her for one of the on-ground tasks which you will all obviously get to know once the videos go live(and of course I will share them too), and the pictures came out so beautiful, I couldn't resist sharing them here!


Below's a grid of few of the pictures I shared on my Instagram Account during my 4 Day stay there...Click HERE to view their enlarged version :)

And if you would like to extend your support through Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, you can do so by liking my posts(with hashtags #BeautyNBlogger & #TeamSFE) on either or all three of these platforms. You can send out tweets or FB posts, but do not forget to add the hashtags #BeautyNBlogger and most importantly #TeamSFE (That's my Team name). Thanks a lot! :D



XOXO,
Stay Fabulous!

Bloom Sparkle Hunt


As far back as I can remember, Tanishq has been a name synonymous with jewellery. In my family, all the generations have been regular customers of this brand buying almost all of their jewellery from there. I felt like I might have outgrown this tradition but turns out, Tanishq is set to pull me back in by their new youthful range, Bloom, inspired from flowers. With the beautiful bold floral patterns and the unique diamond cuts, the collection has been tastefully crafted.

We visited the store last weekend to experience these delicate little beauties first hand. They look just as stunning as in the pictures, trust me. In fact more, if that is even possible! The whole collection is based on unique patterns of various flowers and the affordability of this range will have you drooling over to bag as many of these as possible. The collection ranges from Rs.25,000/- to Rs.2 lakhs. Beautiful floral diamond jewellery within this range, yes please! 

The lovely people over at Tanishq have very kindly offered diamond jewelleries to our readers! Yes, you read it right! You could win Bloom jewellery this weekend just chilling on your laptop sipping coffee...sounds too good to be true? I promise, it is! To participate in the Bloom Sparkle Hunt, all you have to do is guess the name of the flowers the designs in 2nd and 6th image are inspired from and leave a comment with the answers & your Email ID on the Tanishq blog. The reader who answers all questions in the treasure hunt wins Bloom jewellery! As simple as that! C'mon guys, make me proud and win yourself some bling!

P.S. - Follow Tanishq on Facebook & Twitter to know the rest of the steps.
