Hi all,

Today I am posting an armlet/bracelet which is made out of sterling silver with embedded tiger stone.

Known as “The Shapeshifter,” this stone of courage and motivation will help you be successful at everything you do.   
The Tiger's Eye crystal meaning is associated with courage and confidence, which comes from understanding your true desires. Tiger’s Eye is a stone that helps you discover your authentic self through testing your perceived limitations. An effective way to deepen your connection with the Tiger's Eye crystal is by carrying around a stone and calling on it to give you strength and insight during times of spiritual challenge.

Classic vintage draped dress

Namastey :)

Hoping everything will be alright soon, things will pave its way to the normalcy soon.

Vintage style is always classic and it never goes out of fashion. It has some sort of nostalgic appeal 
and elegant beauty attached to it that one never gets bored looking at it.

Today's outfit is a similar replica to the vintage fashion of an empire line classic white draped dress.
Its vintage, its bohemian you name it. It  can be grunge too end of the day it all depends on how you stylize it, accessorize it. But the only thing that matters most is the comfort level and one should be totally comfortable in it or else its all pretentious and that's not happening.

This vintage classic dress is made out of linen fabric and very easy during summer season. Its very soft to the skin and hence, no irritation.
It has classic bishop sleeve and empire line just below bust area. It has twist draped effect at the hemline at one end. It gives it a classic feel and at the neckline drawstrings to adjust the neckline.
I totally adore vintage and bohemian fashion style and love designing them. 

You can pair it with boots and scarf. Some classic purse and glasses to go for bohochic look. Pair it with tight black jeans and some earrings for grunge look. Or keep it plain Jane for vintage effect.

From today on wards I will be posting alternate days and if possible inclusive of Saturdays and Sundays.
With family around and a lockdown it gets a bit difficult to juggle. But I love fashion and designing so I will be there :)

Hope you will like it, and I do take customize orders so one can mail me:

Till then take care and have a safe day ;)

Double Ikat Waistcoat

Hi all,

Happy Monday :)

Today's outfit is a double Ikat waistcoat, fabric sourced from Kolkata (India).

I will be covering the fabric section soon there I will be discussing about the different Indian
fabrics used across the country.

But to brief, Ikat (literally means tie and in the malay language it means "to bind") is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs resist dyeing on the yarns prior to dyeing and weaving the fabric.

This waistcoat is more ethnic tribal oriented and goes well for different cultural ethnic events.
It can be paired with tunics, tees, shirts. Inner lining used is a cotton denim.
Its good for summers and spring season. Waistcoats add up the funk to any simple dress.
Here its been paired with a handmade purse and skirt.
