Shades of green

 Oh my god so many shades of green?.Watch closely, you may find atleast 3-4 . Would love to hear, your favorite shade of green.

Look what I found!!!!

I have always been a BAG person, the only accessory I was really bothered about. As a student, I always invested in bags that are strong and sturdy enough to carry my whole world in it. Trends were not the deciding factor, I would hit straight to the payment counter if the bag had a unique shape, or was a standout piece. Also, I wouldn't invest in costly pieces as it gave me the power to force my dad to buy me a new one after each semester.

Above is an image from past, times when I had no clue what so ever about the number of bags I owned.


I recently gave away 3/4th of the bags to my cousins as I didn't have enough storage space and they were too gaudy for my evolving tastes.


I would any day prefer my trusty totes and hobos instead of sachets and sling bags as the later ones are so compact, and so difficult to carry around. As a matter of fact I do own both, perks of having  fashion conscious relatives. I still am in search of the "PERFECT" office bag.(For the time being I purchased a new one)

My present office bag

As a teenage gal I had this habit of dumping things that didn't make a cut in my style quotient, into the lower deck of my wardrobe. Yesterday, armed with determination to clean up my wardrobe I rummaged through the lower deck and pulled of the following bags.

Even the tag is intact :(

Velvet clutch

A pink clutch

A leather purse

I don't wanna reveal whole of my bags here so keeping some essential pieces a secret. I still feel that the bags are not practical...but a fashionista can find some use for the old rusty "VINTAGE" items.

Studs, Studs and more Studs

Have been sporting the same ol same ol small ring for 2 weeks straight. Why you may ask....I feel that I don't have enough earrings in my box. Now before you roll your eyes and give me a WTH expression let me explain. I am mightily uninspired to dress up, specifically after the work wear code came into place. I have not met with any warnings as of yet for wearing danglers, that's like 2 time in whole month. There is no point in rummaging through my box to find a work wear as I know it clearly: I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH STUDS!!!!. So, today I went out with my colleague cum friend Laks, to do some earring shopping ( No nO that was just part of the agenda). We halted at my newly discovered love, this small boutique in Convent Junction. I had made it a point to shop only what's there in my list, usually I end up buying whole lot of unnecessary stuff. I bought the following studs:

A simple black stud

A white stone stud

Black stud and white stone stud

Silver stud, I remember having a similar one in my box long long ago and I abused it to an extend that silver was not silver anymore but bronzish.

Silver stud

Finally my favourite, a red rose stud

Pretty rose stud

Now, let’s move to ring section, shall we?

I have 4 piercing each on one ear and the second one is a semi-ring, I don't want it to be drowned under all those studs, so bought few rings to add some drama.

Basic silver ring

Silver ring

Basic gold ring

Gold ring

This earring ate up a major chunk of bill, pretty but costly may be cause the stones.

The costly loot

And something I bought cause I loved it, silver and gold mixed hoop. What not 2 love.

Love Love Love

 The loot inside my mini stud box.

N hey on a totally unrelated post, I saw an envelope clutch/sling in the store I shopped at. I was completely surprised...I mean, envelope clutches are in rage right now, and one cannot buy without shelling out some 1-2K. Cochin is moving fashion forward and that’s great news. This store keeper told me that the clutch costs around 500 rps. At that cost, the clutch is a complete grab. I just stood there and reasoned myself whether I have to add this to my wardrobe :The answer is simple :I may not wear it all, and like some pieces in my wardrobe, this too will lie there forgotten. Why waste 500 rps? on a second thought, should I get it? What do you guys think?.

Floored

I was floored by this earring last time I visited Goodwill. It was EOM, and my near to zero balance was not ready to bear yet another blow so, I gave it a miss. Friday on my visit to Goodwill ( Yet again) I  slowly sneaked into the earrings section and lay my hands on this beauty . The salesman smiled  why wouldn't he?. He must have recognized the crazy girl from last time who couldn't make up her mind even after trying on the earrings gazillion times. I decided to buy em anyways and the next task was to convince my mom. My selection basket was already overflowing and mom made it a point to let me know that she doesn't have a problem with me buying as long as I AM PAYING :( . I did pay a bomb....3 days have passed and until now I am not hunt down by a tint of guilty feeling. It's quite unlike my other shopping endeavors. It's okie after all I am floored .
