The Perfect New Years Eve Outfit Starts With…

New Years Eve! The perfect time to pull out your best dress, your favourite dancing shoes and lots of glitter and shine!

I guarantee there is something for everyone in my selection, regardless of your budget or style! I’ve also created a little inspiration board at the bottom for you to get into the mood!

Why I Will Always Love Millennial Pink

Who Doesn’t Love Millennial Pink?

As 2017 comes to an end, I can’t help but wonder if everyone will stop loving “millennial” pink and start loving something else. Of course, it’s only natural that trends come and go but I for one, have always loved pink. Pastel, dusty or millennial, there is nothing pink that I can resist so of course, I have no intention of ever abandoning this colour. What I love most about this colour is how easy it is to style and match. One might think that pink is a difficult, if not statement colour, to wear and style but it’s quite the opposite. I find that my pastel pink pieces go with almost everything I own, regardless of the colour.

What I also love about pink is that it’s able to add a touch of femininity to any outfit I might style! For example, I’m not exactly one to put on a super sporty/athleisure look. (Although I was the captain of my varsity football/soccer team in high school!) I fell in love with this gorgeous hoodie from Sandro. Paired with jeans, it’s the perfect spin on athleisure but paired with this gorgeous Maje pink skirt, it’s an elegant outfit in the making! I love how the navy blue and white compliment the baby pink and of course the whole outfit was pulled together with my favourite new thigh high boots!

Of course, as luck would have it, Anastasija and I came across this beautiful, lit up, pink wall. Didn’t I say I couldn’t resist pink? It made for such a fun backdrop to an outfit that I know I’m going to be wearing on repeat so don’t be surprised if you see it at least a few more times on my Instagram!

What is a colour you can’t stop wearing and why?

I was featured in Elle India…

I think one of the most exciting moments of 2017 was getting a street style feature in the latest issue of Elle India. It was my first time ever being a part of a fashion magazine shoot so of course I had to video it all! I am taking you guys behind the scenes in this quick video and sharing what I wore, what we did and how we did it!

If you live in India, please go get the magazine! I would love to hear everyones thoughts on what you thought of the look!

What To Wear To Your Next Christmas Party: The Perfect Holiday Outfit

Tis The Season…

As our calendars start to fill with holiday parties, it’s time to get out our favourite dancing shoes and our prettiest dresses and skirts. I know that I sometimes struggle with party outfit ideas, especially when the occasions are so frequent! This year though, I found my favourite party outfit to date. The key to the perfect party outfit is always having that one piece that’s more interesting than the rest. In this case, though, I found three pieces that are statements in their own right but are a match made in fashion heaven when combined. I think it’s important to remember, especially for a good party outfit, that when combining many statement pieces, make sure you keep your colour palette as sober as possible. I opted in for a total classic, an all-black look.

Ba&sh is one of my favourite brands (I promise this is not sponsored, I’m just obsessed) and this year I snagged the most beautiful sweater ba&sh sweater. The low back with the crystal details makes it a perfect option for any holiday celebration. Since I was going for covered knitwear on top, I wanted to have some fun and go with something sheer on the bottom. I picked up this sheer panelled skirt while I was in India but I’ve found some similar options, like this one here and this super elegant one here (Both are super affordable too!) I love how balanced the look is, not showing too much or too little!

If there is any time for more is more, the holidays are it. Don’t shy away from accessories for your holiday party outfits! I pulled out my favourite Sophia Webster heels. I love the fun geometric pattern. They are so easy to wear because of the colours! I grabbed my favourite Dior bag and I was ready to go – holiday party ready! Would you wear this look? What are you wearing to your holiday parties?

What I’ve Been Wearing in India So Far: Stay Wild

I’m back with another outfit diary where I’m sharing what to wear in India. I hope that even if you aren’t travelling to India, these holiday outfits will give you enough inspiration for wherever you’re travelling to this holiday season, especially if it’s somewhere sunny! Although, speaking of sunshine, we’ve been hit with a hurricane so it’s been pouring down rain since yesterday! Not exactly the day I had in mind today but I hope that these images will brighten up your day!

When deciding what to wear in India, I tend to pack in outfits. I like to use pieces that mix and match well but I also love a good mix of statement pieces. In this past week, my outfits had a few statement accessories that really helped them stand out from the crowd. Trust me, India is crowded.

What was your favourite outfit? Will you be recreating these looks? If you aren’t travelling anywhere warm just yet, don’t forget to pin these images for later! My Pinterest is full of summer inspiration for the new year already!

When deciding what to wear in India, I always pack fabrics that are lightweight so that I can enjoy the heat! My linen shirts are a must like this white one. I also like to pack a few statement pieces that can be mixed and matched, like these adorable shorts and my beautiful scarf!

Shirt: Uniqlo

Shorts: Rails LA (Similar via Boohoo here)

Shoes: Aquazzura

Bag & Scarf: Dior

Necklace: Monica Vinader

I pulled out an old Topshop Shirt dress to wear on Wednesday. I love dresses for my vacation outfits because they are so easy to wear! I wanted to add some more glam to my dress so I added in these brand new Kendra Scott earrings! They have recently opened in Selfridges, London and you can even go in and design your own pair!

Saturday was a lady who lunches kinda day! I attended a beautiful lunch held for a dear family friend. I love this two piece set from Sandro but I felt the need to add some edge to the look. That came in the form of my Dior bralette which totally made the look a bit more me!

Top & Skirt: Sandro

Bralette & Shoes: Dior

Sunglasses: Ray Ban
