Accessories: Add Ons

Anyone who has stumbled across our blog cannot have missed noticing our fascination with accessories. Whether it is stacked up arm candy or dainty earrings, we hardly leave our homes without accessories on. So when we stumbled across Add ons shopping website, we had to take a better look.

What we liked about the collection is that we can score a great deal for a reasonable price. From pretty pearl earring to edgy studded footwear - there is something in there for everyone.

Our top picks from the collection:

Edgy Earrings:

A good pair of earring can transform the drabbest outfit into a little more fun. These infinity earrings from the collection made us want to order them on the spot - small but catchy.

Colourful Shoes:

Shoes are necessary investment pieces. But visuals need not go for a toss because of comfort. The gorgeous flats work both as eye soothers as well as will feel like a breeze.

Arm Stash:

Loading the arm with a beautifully crafted cuff or a good old charm bracelet can complete any outfit. It's what we run to when we want to and a new element to an old outfit.

Caps/Hats:

We are not really hat people but that doesn't stop us from admiring people who carry them off well!

The Biba Experience.

         Nothing beats the grandeur of Indian outfits! So when we entered the Biba store what caught our notice was the bright yellow lights, colours playing around and glimpses of India. We both do not find many opportunities in daily life to sport much of Indian wear and hence are not frequent visitors of Biba. But when we were invited to review their new Winter/Fall collection, we thought we'd give it a shot. And we were not disappointed at all.

What we loved:
The amazing use of warm colours to keep the collection lively.
The anarkalis are plain wow.
Well informed staff.
Variety in prints.
Great range of sizes available.
Affordable prices. Most of the outfits worn below were below Rs. 2500/-

What we thought could be better:
More variety in the cuts and patterns of clothes.


These are some of our favourite pieces from the collection that we tried.

Rachana:

This ethinc wear is splendid! Love the border.

The detailing behind this out is breathtaking. Btw its a vest that comes with the outfit.

This is could easily be worn as a maxi dress as well as an anarkali. It's comfortable and trendy.

This kurti is a versatile outfit can be worn in a variety of ways.

Simple yet effortless is what we would like to describe this.

Diana:

   This outfit has intricate detailing. Which is totally not over the top.

 This outfit is simple yet gorgeous. It fits like a glove!

                                 This outfit we would be wear for college. Love the print and colors!

If you are like us who do not like a lot of bling in their ethinic wear this suit is perfect.

Silver Jhumkas - CBM

If there is something that makes us go weak in the knees, then it has to be Indian jewelry! What is not to love about our beautiful jhumkas and mang tikkas? Even Indian prints like paisleys, ikat, bandhini are to die for.
Recently we even saw how Indian fashion is catching up internationally like Christian Louboutin's Bollywood inspired Collection (here) and Karl Lagerfeld's Paris Bombay Collection (here).

We are starting this new section where we will feature one of our favourite, Cheap buy of the Month. Let us know how you like this new section :)

   Silver Jhumkas

Price: Rs 120

Place: Elco Market, Bandra Linking Road

We absolutely love this pair. There is something about Indian jewelry that makes us go completely gaga.
