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. :)

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. :)

Privacy! Is it a lot to ask?

            In this city of dreams, with its light, passion and vigor, there seems nothing that cannot make us happy. Yet time and again, as much as we love Mumbai, we struggle to cope with how it works. Space, privacy are words unheard of over here.
           People cannot keep a distance, cannot respect your privacy even if you are one of those kinds who hardly socialize. This constant need to know the details of all the people in your life might be frustrating someone beyond measure (example = us!). Really! What exactly is so interesting about what's going on in my love life? or what i'm studying? And now that you've poked and prodded me till I answer all your nosey questions, who gave you the right to judge? So i'm just doing ordinary B.A. while your boy is doing engineering? Well! Congo aunty and thanks for the unasked information!
         If invasion of mental privacy wasn't enough, the physical part comes in. You can practically never be alone! Most parents don't approve of closed doors of rooms, sitting at a cafe alone means getting weird glances, private time on trains, buses is a joke! So when? When can we just sit, with a cup of coffee, with mental and physical privacy and just be able to breathe?

                                                              Questions, questions!

On a lighter note we clicked these pictures before catching up with an old friend over the movie  'Ishqzaade'. Diana liked it, I didn't! Rare clash of opinions! :P Have you seen it yet? Share it with us in the comments section.


P.S. Thank you guys for showing us so much love in the blogging world. We love each of your comments and are grateful to come across so many awesome people :)

The caves expedition...

Hey people,
We decided today would be a lovely day to explore our city. So we rounded up on the caves close to our place. Considering how hot Mumbai has become all of a sudden (How we miss our winters!) we had to dress light. Now as cliched as it sounds we decided on using the floral print (yes we know it is overdone!) for our hot summer day expedition.

Rachana wore a big floral print tunic with crochet detailing.





Star studs and Catwalk wedges- Garage sale (Candies), Black denims- Lokhandwala, Bag and Floral tunic- Bandra.



Diana wore a small floral print maxi dress.







Bag- Goa, Shrug- Delhi, Maxi dress- Lokhandwala, Shoes- Bandra, Ring- Globus, Necklace- Colaba, Rayban glares- gifted.
