An affair with luxury

I know this is so long overdue. I still have a ton of content from past few days to share so this will be where I start.  As much as I enjoy capturing the feel of owning a luxury, the brands and a little pride at having a luxurious item with me, I shudder at the thought of going through all the hassle of collecting it. I have always been a sucker for International brands but ordering them online from parent website has always been a headache as apart from MRPs there are all sort of taxes & shipping charges included. Moreover, the hassle of going to airport in case something is held at customs (screams!). So, my only hope was Google to find out an online place where I can fulfill this little luxury-wanted girl in me. Going through pages, I stumbled upon this website with a very unique yet catchy portal name 'Luxeaffaires'. 

As unique as their name, their listing of products is unique as well. They offer registration to maintain the secrecy of the products and to make sure only genuine customers are registered. Once you register, they notify you via mail what all brands are going live for the sale and upto how much percentage. Starting from Hugo Boss range to Guess range, they offer all the brands for you to grab. 

At first, I was little skeptical about ordering, but since it was my first time purchase, I picked up a Guess bracelet (which I always wanted to own). It took me few mins to place an order and voila! it was confirmed. 

I believe in 'less is more'. So, I am gonna say very little about them and leave it upto you to experience this amazing opportunity to grab luxury now!

Shop their wide range of brands here and stay updated on upcoming sales. 

 Luxeaffaires will always be my favorite. Cheers to Luxeaffaires for being my all-time, go-to brand to own the most sorted brands in India. 

Just a glimpse of luxury on sale ;)

Hope you all are enjoying the first bits of fall.

Until next time lovelies, stay glamorous.

Go deep, go bold

It's weekend and I am wondering ( I wonder alot!) that what am I going to do? Go to a party that I have been invited to or hangout with bunch of girls who talk nothing but how rude are their parents or how jealous they of bunch of other girls or simply just stay home and do what I feel like or maybe I could splurge a little. ;)

There's no harm in getting yourself a little gift once a month or twice or every weekend, went a little crazy there. Anyway, I decided to go out (alone) and hit the mall nearby. Without thinking once I stepped into the Colorbar outlet maybe because I knew what I had to buy myself this weekend.

Since, color Marsala is the talk of the town or the color of the year I thought why not give this deep & dark color a try. As the lady helped me discover the shade, I got my hands on this luscious, deep maroon Blush shade by Colorbar. I knew I have hit jackpot and couldn't wait to go home and try it on.



The packaging is okay but the end product is a dream. You might even look at it first but once you try it on you don't want to get it off. ;)


I paired the look with sea blue chiffon dress with sequins work on the neckline which adds a bling factor to the look. I kept the make up minimal to highlight the Colobar Blush lipcolor. Only kohl eyes and white kajal in the waterline with a hint of compact. Here I left my hair loose to add celeb-factor and not look like someone who has just got out of bed. Messy hair, btw, love them! 

Here is my look taken from two different angles.




Pros : Pocket-friendly, true to its name color, non-dry, non-smudge, stays on for good 7 hours, goes with almost every outfit (day or night)

Cons : needs better packaging!




While I enjoy my new purchase, you can get yours at http://www.colorbarcosmetics.com/

Until next time lovelies, stay glamorous.

Print-opia

As I woke up this morning, having my green tea while sitting comfortably in balcony and listening to birds chirping I was thinking what to wear today. I searched in my wardrobe but found nothing exciting.
Then, that little sketching bug inside me bit me and before I could finish my green tea I noticed myself sketching a new outfit.




It was a crop top blue color in cotton fabric apt for humid and summer-y weather and a knee length skirt with beautiful print in black and white (because vintage!). Paired it with nice blue heels, which I want to own. Anyway, the design turned out to be a dream and once I am done with this post I'll catch my masterji to help me turn this dream into reality.

Until then peeps, don't forget to be stylish. :*

Tangerine Touch (Lakme Lip Pout)


This time I got my hands on a beauty product. Not a big fan of makeup but when it comes to lip colors, there's no stopping me! 

My new hunt for lip color was Lakme Absolut Lip Pout since the day Lakme revealed it's collection and no! I didn't want pink, rose, peach or red because very frankly I am bored of these colors. So, I bought Tangerine Touch (sort of orange) and voila! it was the perfect choice. I was confident of pulling that color off and my my am I impressed? Yes, I am! 




Coming to the point, What is the perfect lipstick? Let’s break that down.

1. Shade must be timeless, as universally flattering as possible, not too matte or shiny


2. Lips must feel smoothed, formula must be long lasting but not drying

3. Stick must fill heart with joy upon sight, hands with luxury upon lifting, friends with envy upon viewing.

The Lakme absolut lip pout does all of the above. It reveals itself, perfectly faceted, smooth, and a flawless tangerine. The formula is on the matte side, crayon form, but filled with pure silk and botanical extracts.
                                          


Pros : Survived meals, stayed for good 6 hours, beautiful fragrance, no fading off & affordable.

Cons : None as such. (If you are confident to pull off this color, just go buy).

A must have in every girl's closet. So girls, don't be afraid to go wild. Forget the pinks and reds and pick coral and tangerine, just like I did!

Ring-spiration!

I know the post is a little late but all this marketing work is taking up my time leaving me with nothing but being super tired. Today, the work flow is little less (hard to believe considering it's Monday!) So, I woke up in the morning and just like everyone has I was experiencing Monday Blues. Why can't we have equal amount of weekend as of weekdays? Anyway, after usual routine came the question of What to wear?! While my head was spinning by constantly thinking about what to wear to office, I noticed myself playing with this beautiful ring on my finger. The ForeverNew Statement ring with enchanting blue stone surrounded by white diamond like stones. It hit me I don't necessarily have to go in complete formals. So what if it's a Monday, you could always wear what you are comfortable in. 

So, I quickly picked up Classic Blue Denim Shirt, my Charcol Black Jeggings, Tan leather belt and my pair of Nude Pumps to tone down the outfit. Since the Denim Shirt looked too casual for a Monday, I put the Tan leather belt around my waist to I let my hair loose as tying them up would have made the outfit look way too formal. It turned out to be perfect and as comfortable as I had thought. A light layer of Maybelline ClearGlow compact, fine winged line of Lakme 9-to-5 black impact eyeliner, and lakme white kajal on the waterline alongwith Deep Red lipstick to add an oomph to the outfit. 



Who knew a simple outfit will turn out to be so bang on and this was all by getting inspired from a Ring!

Summer Jitters


When we talk about summers, we can only think of how hot, humid & irritating the weather will be. We prefer not to step out in the sun. Even if we have to, most of us girls don't have the right outfit to go with the weather. We can only think of putting on those skinny, straight or slim fit pair of denims with (what we have is the nicest) top.I am one of those girls and I wanted to go for an outfit makeover this summer, no matter what but without spending big bucks. For someone, who earns peanuts spending on an whole new outfit can be bit of an asthma attack.

After a lot of research or you can say lot of comparison, I finally got my eyes on this beautiful sky blue shaded tie & die maxi skirt. When I first looked at it, I could imagine my wearing this and feel those beach vibes. Ahh! 
Since it was on sale, it didn't cost me much. So, Koovs got their first 'A+' on the pricing. Without thinking further, I placed the order. Delivery time? 3-4 days, second 'A+' to the Koovs. 

And the day arrived when I got the call from the courier services that your Koovs package is here, I literally jumped out of my office chair and ran towards the reception and there it was. Third 'A+' to Koovs on the services. 

The trial time! I rushed to home as fast as I could (curse the traffic though). It fitted me like a dream. Genuine fabric, clean stitching, true-to-image product & affordable. Fourth 'A+' to Koovs. I paired it with black tank top & tan sandals to let it be the star of the outfit. You can add accessories if you want but I think they feel a bit uncomfortable while stepping out in the sun.

Lastly, I think that the most important is feeling good and smile all the time, with a big smile you will feel that you can win everything! This skirt made me feel exactly the same. I really love the decision of going for an outfit makeover, it is so unexpected and amazing at the same time…It is one of the summer looks that make me happy. Fifth 'A+' to the Koovs. 




So, don't think further if you want to get yourself a makeover. Go ahead & shop the collection here :
