Winter Touchdown

It’s finally the winter. The winters in Bombay obviously aren’t that cold but it does get chilly at nights.

Cold=Covering up=Blah?

Not necessary. You don’t have to look like a gunny bag under the sweats and hoodies. Here’s the touchdown on how to get the winning winter look

Don’t opt for regular jeans. Camos are a big deal right now. Try them with soft big-kit button down sweaters or with a cropped top or just a plain old white tee. Invest in a pair of flat boots. They are available at Bandra. If not those, then look for platform sneakers.

Just cause it is the winter, doesn’t mean you have to stick with dulls. Try a pop of neons with a dull overall. Also graphic sweaters are big. Make sure to have one. Pair it up with leggings or thick coloured stockings. Finish the look with some loafers.

 

 

For a more formal look, try bright high-waisted trousers and a great bustier. Cover up the ensemble with a fly away cardigan.

 

For those who like the dulls, then definitely opt for acid-washed jeans. I am in love with them. Try them even in dark blue shades. Wear it with a loose casual tee and once again wear platform sneakers or combat boots. Finish the look with some studded accessories.

How to wear a chambray (denim) shirt.

Chambray skirts are pretty stylish. Only loose ones though. You can tone down any attire with it. Wear it as a jacket or wear it as a shirt. Watch out for the looks:

1. Wear a nice maxi dress and wear an open chambray shirt on it. Twist the look up with military boots and a big high bun.

2. Geek it up a bit by wearing it under a v-neck school sweater. Roll up both the sleeves. Wear the leggings, block heels, nerdy glasses and voila!

3. Wear it with a block coloured/printed pencil skirt. You can either tuck it in or let it stay tucked out. Make yourself stand out more by tying your hair up and then creating a bow out of a bandana.

4. The most basic way is by wearing it with a different shade of jeans. To break the denim on denim thing, wear a camel belt.
