My Birthday Picks: Rosegal

My Birthday month is fast approaching!

I'm so excited for my Birthday this time. August is without a doubt my favorite month of the year. So many colors in sight, good weather, long weekends (15th Aug is Independence day in India :)) and so many weddings/parties to attend to. So picking the perfect outfit is very important for me since this is the period of Sales & fresh arrivals come one week before my birthday. It's now or never, it seems? ;)

This time I'm thinking of a maxi dress or an dress shoulder off. The thing about off-shoulder outfits is, they look great on about anybody if worn right. If you are petite then go ahead and wear one without thinking. Just make sure the rim rests tightly on you. If you are chest heavy then pick one with high off-shoulder neck. This way you can draw your attention towards your neck. I really enjoy getting all dressy and celebrating with friends & family: good food, music and just rocking through the night. This month I suppose, we'd be celebrating with friends a day before, lunch with family on D-Day and then going for a trip with friends somewhere in Udaipur. Let's hope it all turns out for the best. Traveling is truly an addiction which only energizes & repays you well.

Talking about addictions, there's another style, I can't seem to get over with; sequins! It grabbed my attention when Serena wore the sequin dress in the first episode of Gossip Girl. I'm thinking of this top with black leather shorts, do you like it? I'll pair it with my black sequins clutch from my previous post and black lace pumps.



For jewelry, I believe less is REALLY more if your outfit is that flashy or you have an agenda to attract attention to a particular part of body like neck, shoulders, etc. But certain occasions demand you not go empty handed. I like to then wear, a simple bracelet like the one below. It's so simple, elegant and totally boasts my personality. Jewelry is really personal to me and I don't wear it for the sake of it. It should either be particularly required with the outfit or mean something to me ^_^


Another one of my favorite trends is pink flower dresses. Internet is flooded with these cutesies and you just cannot have your favorites ready. I'd wear with with nude accessories.

Sherlock Holmes: All covered

Hey Folks

Sorry for the cheeky title! I had a flatmate during college who used to pass such snazzy comments about Sherlock Holmes that I just couldn't resist cracking one for myself ;)

Hey you all crazy fans of Sherlock! If I ask you one thing you most associate Sherlock Holmes with; what would you say? I'm going to show you one thing in this post and I'm sure you guys are gonna love it truly. How do I know? I showed it to two Sherlock fans and their voice decibel told me so. 

When I purchased an iphone 6 months ago, I had no idea how difficult it would be to get custom made covers or even decently priced ones that actually mean something to you. I literally designed one for myself and it was so gorgeous that my hopes were obviously high. To get it printed, I checked out a few websites online but none of them charged decently for a plastic or silicon material. It was time for some legwork. I searched for a good place locally and found one that came highly recommended. Now I know why recommendations aren't 100% true. I had them print it thrice and the end result was still a cheap-looking, possibly third-hand iphone!

It was time I searched something very decent that I can relate with and found PrintOctopus. As cute as the name is, the place is filled with your favorite series inspired goodies. My personal favorites are SUITS merchandise. I mean, come one!!! Quotes like  "You just got LITT up". I'm dying out here. 
If that wasn't enough, "I am SherLOCKED" was yelling at me.

So for my first one (many more purchases), I found this door and had my heart set on having it at that instant. The one thing I dreaded the most was if the quality would be worth the price. As mentioned above, I had searched everywhere and the quality; by all means, didn't match the price. Even if you paid a 1000 bucks you will eventually get bored of the design in a few months so it had to be something less expensive for a mobile cover!

To my surprise, the phone cover not only was of really good quality, but also, I faced no struggle in getting the cover on fearing the scratches. Now I'll leave you guys to my iphone wardrobe addition while I head to the Tshirt quotes section. Next on? SUITS :D
