How to Wear Double Denim this Summer

So how do you spice up double denim?

Double denim, the Canadian tuxedo, whatever you want to call it – it’s been around for ages! It’s a classic combo that never fails you but how do you take that go-to look to the next level? Here at TSS, a part of my mission is to inspire you to try something new and embrace fashion as a way of expression. I think one way of doing this, is taking something classic and adding a touch of personality to it. That is exactly what I did with the double denim trend. I didn’t just want it to be a regular denim jacket and a denim mini. Instead, I opted for embellished denim.

This jacket has to be one of my most favourite purchases recently. I fell in love with it when I saw the embroidery at the back! (Very Gucci right?) I loved that it even had adorable embroidery on the front hat said “Oui Oui”. All in all, this embroidered denim jacket from Joie stole my heart. To really elevate the look, I paired it with my favourite denim mini of the moment from Topshop. I love the racer stripes down the sides. They really give the look a sporty feel!

What do you think of my take on the classic?

How to Wear the Military Jacket Trend this Spring

Adding edge with the military jacket trend…

Spring is one of my favourite seasons. Not only is it a great time to try out new trends, but it’s also the season I was born in (My birthday is on Friday!!). A part of every spring wardrobe this season is the hero jacket: The Military Inspired piece. This is one of those pieces that immediately elevates your go-to jeans and tee combo. In my case, I used it to add a bit of edge to my look. My favourite way to wear the military jacket is by mixing it up with more feminine pieces. I paired mine with a ruffled skirt and a striped sweater (Another must have this spring!). I loved the contrast it created! You could wear your favourite military jacket in so many other ways. I also paired this jacket with some tailored trousers and a white shirt for a more refined look and with a spring dress to add a bit of edge. No matter what you pear it with, remember to keep your palette neutral to let the jacket stand out without overwhelming you!

How to Wear the New Spring Colour Combination

The Coolest Colour Combination Around…

Spring is here and the March outfit ideas are all coming at you now! I’m so excited for all my spring and summer inspired outfits, especially because of all the gorgeous colours that we get to rock now that the sun is out! My favourite new colour combination involves a lot of pink and my other favourite colour, orange! (I also love red and pink – a classic!). Since the weather is much warmer now, I can finally pull out my suede jackets – starting with this blush pink one that matches so perfectly with my favourite orange sweater! I also loved being able to style the tie details of the skirt and the sweater together!

My accessories played a vital role in my outfit as well, I especially loved that my blush bag works so perfect with this colour combination. I also love my new Daniel Wellington watch! The classic feel adds the perfect finishing touch to the look! What do you guys think?

Not Your Grandmas Cardigan

The cardigan just got edgy…

This is another one of the outfits that I got to shoot with the very talented photographer, Gaurav, while I was in Bombay during Christmas! The weather outside was boiling so we decided to shoot this particular look indoors. Luckily for you – this is the perfect look for the weather right now! I chose this combination because of the contrasts. I love that the sweater (Yes this is the same sweater I was wearing in Paris during PFW!) has a very elegant feel to it, especially with the pearl buttons and the stripes. I paired it with an edgier skirt from Deme by Gabrielle, a super cool designer based in India. I love the asymmetric hem of the skirt, and the slightly higher length on one side really provides that edgier feel that I was looking for with this outfit.

I kept everything else really simple because I love the statement that the two pieces in this look make! Paired with a simple black tee shirt and pointed flats – I had a winning combo! I had so much fun shooting this particular look and I hope you guys like it!

The Gucci Tee Strikes Again…

I’m writing to you not from London (which is where I usually am) and not from Bombay (which is where these photos were shot) but from Holland! I’m currently on a mini break in NL right now but I wanted to take this opportunity to share these photos that I shot while I was in Bombay over Christmas! I had the opportunity to shoot quite a few outfits with the very talented photographer there named Gaurav. All the outfits we shot however were for the warmer months so I’ve waited all this time to share them with you but I hope you like them!

This was one of my favourite looks from the ones we shot! Not only because I had just gotten the Gucci tee shirt at this time and was so in love with it (I am totally so in love with this tee shirt still – I can’t get over it!) but also because of how we shot it! I’m petrified of heights but we got up onto this tiny little terrace and Gaurav got up one level higher than me to shoot this! I was petrified of being so high up and leaning against the railing but the shots were so worth it and it was actually a lot of fun! I paired the tee shirt with what is actually a jumpsuit! I love the flared bottoms of this Reformation jumpsuit and thought it went perfectly with the vibe of the tee shirt (Love that jumpsuits are so multi purpose!) – the sunnies gave it that extra special retro feel!

Time Keeping with Daniel Wellington

Revealing your new favourite time piece

I have the pleasure of being one of the influencers to reveal the brand new Daniel Wellington watch, The Classic Petite, to none other than you! When I received the watch in the mail a few weeks ago I wanted to post about it immediately but had to stay quiet until it was officially released and now the time has finally come! I immediately fell in love with the super sleek and minimalistic design of the watch which makes it the perfect companion for every day – keeping me on track and in style!

This is the first time that Daniel Wellington is doing a mesh strap, but what I also love most about this watch, is that it’s petite! For a small wrist like mine, this watch is perfect because not only does it not over power your look, but it’s also incredibly feminine which means it matches with everything and anything! I mean, what else could you ask for a watch? I think this one has it all!

The watch is available in gold and silver and with a white or black face. Check out all the designs on the Daniel Wellington website.

Bringing Embroidered Star Jeans to Spring

Seeing Stars….on my jeans!

It is no surprise to anyone that I LOVE embroidery. I’ve gone on and on about how it has something to do with the fact that I am Indian so all the pretty and beautiful embroidery work I grew up with has obviously oozed into my current day wardrobe. So, when I saw these jeans with the stars embroidered on to them I really didn’t have to think twice about it. Modern day embroidery, on one of the best fitting jeans I own! I mean, who could say no to that?

I love the colour of the jeans as well, it’s the perfect blue, Which is harder than you would think to find by the way! The classic thing to do would be to pair it with a contrasting colour or a crisp classic like white. I wanted to experiment with colour (You know that colour is the new thing for spring right?) so I decided to pair this look with one of my favourite body suits EVER. This beauty is from a company called Alix NYC – not only is the colour the most beautiful green ever, but it is also silk! (Silkkkkk Sneaker!) The fit is unbelievable and the quality is of course also great making it a piece you can literally wear any day, any time.

Styling the Hoodie

Upgrading your favourite hoodie…

It’s not a total surprise that a part of the street style scene is embracing comfort along with personal style. After all, being comfortable in what you’re wearing is a part of pulling off a look with confidence. The hoodie is a favourite in everyone’s closet, no matter what you consider your personal style. I mean no one can resist that kind of comfort right? Although previously reserved for lazy days with Netflix and chocolate, the hoodie has gotten a serious upgrade in recent months, being pulled out for fashion months and street style alike.

Believe it or not, I spent a significant part of my high school career in hoodies so I had no problem getting on board with this. So how do you wear the hoodie everyday and still look fashionable? By pairing it with a blazer of course! I love the combination of a blazer and a hoodie because the contrast of the two pieces creates the perfect outfit balance while creating a unique yet eternally stylish look! Can’t go wrong with that!

My Favourite Sweater in Paris

Back in London, But Still Dreaming of Paris…

As much as I adore being back in London, I can’t help but miss the beautiful city of Paris. On our second day there, we had amazing luck with the weather when the sun parted just for a few hours for us to explore the city and to photograph the outfit I was wearing. One of my favourite sweaters is this gorgeous classic white one. It’s the kind of piece that feels extremely elegant and the detailing with the pearl buttons and the stripes is so chic! Plus I spent ages looking for it in my size. I went for a layered look and tucked the sweater into my jeans to create an elegant day time feel.This was the perfect contrast for my combat boots! It’s all about balance am I right?

I was so happy to be able to visit the Palais Royale and see this beautiful spot! It’s not something you can really miss when in Paris!
