Time for Love.

      Sunday is finally here and we can't help but heave a huge sigh of relief. Buried under piles of assignments, projects, notes and trying to effectively manage our academic, social and personal life, we are hardly left with any time to do the things we love the most. Blogging, reading, shopping - have become things we now do only a few minutes a day!
     Maybe we just suck at time management and hence the problem. Whatever it is, we managed to do an outfit shoot recently (okay, maybe a week back!). This is the 2nd time we've been inspired from random pictures we saw and incorporated it in some way into our outfits. To check the 1st 'inspired' post you can click here.

Now in no way are you to think that by inspired I meant  inspired by the weight of the elephant :P What caught my eye in this picture is how the colour bluish grey and brown complement each other so beautifully. This discovery was like those things which you always see, yet you never really notice.


Inspired Outfit:

Asymmetrical shirt - Fashion Street
Brown jeggings, floral wedges - Garage sale
Necklace - Westside
Bracelet - Accessorize (gifted)
Satchel - Bandra
Summarizing outfit - Rs. 1550

Have no Expectations.

       So we've been out of action for awhile now and while we could just apologize and move on, in reality we aren't apologetic at all! We've been having a hectic time with college, work and so much more and the fact that we both have completely different schedules doesn't help! But if we really have to come with a truthful answer about why we just went missing so soon in our blogging life then it has to be - EXPECTATIONS!
       The pressure of expectations is what we've been dealing with all through last month, and hell yeah we weren't enjoying it one bit! We are at the threshold where we are neither kids nor adults and as we are slowing crossing that line we feel the burden of being big gals now, of expectations that we will do something worthwhile and of the fear of not being able to live up to everyone's expectations. And even on the blog there is this constant pressure of dressing better with each outfit, of incorporating trends into each outfit and what not. But we aren't like that! We can't dress for anyone other than ourselves, sometimes we are completely on trend but then other times we are still using last season's trends. And we can't care even if we do!
     We are glad you all have supported us so much all along and we are excited for our blogging journey ahead - because now it's just us we're going to please :)

                         Now for the outfit post that we at last managed to do ;)

Dress and bag- Lokhandwala
Shoes- Bandra
Bracelets and feather ring- Colaba, Accessorize, Forever New

Bohemian Like You

           Firstly about the name, this happens to be one of our favorite song from the band Dandy Warhols and also the name of the blog of our favorite blogger Arushi. So no copying intended. :P
Now bout our state of mind, we've been thinking a lot lately and we were wondering if our blog actually portrays who we are, as in our real personalities. You might have gotten a different image of ours through our blog and social media pages but in reality we have various quirks. For example we are highly (HIGHLY!) anti social. We just can't mingle with normal mortals.
          On most days we prefer staring at the sky trying to have conversations with aliens than talking to our fellow human beings. And believe it or not we like it that way. But up until recent times we've been offending people which is not intentional. Hence we suffer from some unknown disease, which we would like to be treated for. If any one of you know what disease we are suffering from please let us know and treat us if you can.
        People often mistake this anti social, awkward behavior as attitude or as being a snob but if you know us well you would know we aren't that. We could be friendly too if we know you well :)

Now about the outfit- we've always felt we have a very bohemian mindset but somehow it didn't reflect in our style. This was our attempt to create boho outfits with whatever we had in our wardrobes.


Diana:
Coral top, Vest- Lokandwala
Palazzo pants, Silver cuff, shoes - Bandra
Fox ring- Blur
Round ring- Flea market in Goa
Cloth bag- Colaba 
Summarizing the look- Rs.1400/-




 



              Hehehe! :D (Awkward pose alert!)




Rachana:
Floral tee- Fashion street
Khaki pant- Vile Parle Station
 Tan shoes- Bandra
Grey cardigan- Lokhandwala market
Ring- Globus
Earrings & Bracelets- Accessorize (gifted by mom)
Jhola - some mall in Delhi
Summarizing the look- Rs.1200/- (excluding gifted items)










That's it folks! Give us insights bout our unknown disease and  let us know what you think bout our outfits. :)

Two to Tango

       We were fighting a battle with the horrid weather by pouting and sitting cross legged at home and absolutely refusing to step out and hence this great delay in posting. We spend most of our days leisurely lazing around, talking for long hours on the phone, having Nutella and bread and waiting for college to start. As much as you won't believe it, we are actually so excited to start studying again! :O

Now for the outfit post, we searched our wardrobes high and low and this was as close as we could come to Tangerine.

      We know it is very cliched to say we draw inspiration from everywhere but that's exactly how our style is. We mix a collection of emotions, thoughts, things we've seen and felt into our looks, even if it is in very subtle form. We've thought of sharing our inspiration pictures this time.

Diana:

Did you Know?

           When we were invited for an event to check out Imran Khan's collection for Denizen, we were a little skeptical. Not because we didn't love Imran (of course we do!) but because we've often see how a well known celebrity just lends his name to a collection without actually contributing to it, which is always very disappointing! We went anyway just to meet the chocolate boy ;) and were happy to see how personalized his collection is.

For instance,
1) Imran is the inquisitive kinds and is always teased by his friends as 'Wikipedia' so he came out with this range of cool T-shirts with the phrase 'Did you know?' on it.
2) Imran loves the colour red and tried incorporating it in his collection in varied ways like, the red rivet on the coin pocket, and the last button of all the shirts are red (which look really funky btw!)
3) Also since Imran love the natural, chilled out look, he has given all the t-shirts a vintage wash giving them a buttery feel!

   Some pictures from the event (to make y'all jealous) :P


  (The 3rd shirt from the left is Imran's personal favourite!)


                                       (Love how the cuff of the jeans has red accents. A unique idea!)




                                                     (Yes, he looks hot from all angles!) :D


                                                     (Sorry for the sad quality of this pic!)

So would we recommend his collection to our lovely readers?
If you are a college going, laid back guy and like Imran's cool style then definitely. 
And we completely recommend the jeans as we personally love the quality and fit Denizen offers. Also the jeans from his collection are made while keeping in mind the usually big Indian hips :P (That's what Imran said! Don't catch our necks!) :D
And you definitely need to buy from this collection if you are a die hard fan of Imran Khan coz it is completely personalized by him. :)

The sad part was that his collection was only for men this time but he said he'll look into the female category for the Fall/Winter collection. Also check this collection out if you want boyfriend jeans or want to create some cool androgynous looks.

 What do you think of his collection? Would you buy pieces from it?

Now about the most exciting part! Yeah even more exciting than Imran, was that we met so manly lovely fellow bloggers. It was an absolute treat! We had a blast talking about our blogs, fashion and of course gossip. We made some new friends and we totally loved the fact that the event was held on a one on one interaction with Imran only for bloggers.
Some awesome fellow bloggers we met were Ila Johari, Amena, Suniti, Karishma, Ritcha and BA
Do check out the blogs of these lovely ladies. :)

Now for what we wore that day

 Black dress with peter pan collars- Fashion Street
Union jack sling bag - Accessorize
Dangling earrings - Bandra
