Styling Embroidered Jeans

I love embroidered jeans because they add so much personality to your overall outfit. I had been on the lookout for the perfect pair of embroidered jeans and these ones from Zara really fit the bill. The embroidery on this pair is so so so gorgeous and vibrant. The jeans themselves are super comfy and have just the right amount of stretch which was a plus for me because I can't stand that stiff denim feel. Also, I love the slight flare of these jeans because they give off that whole 70s vibe without being over the top flarey. If you're thinking about getting a pair of embroidered jeans, I highly suggest this pair. 

I paired the jeans with this chunky sweater and a pair of mule loafers to create that effortlessly chic look. I decided to throw on this beautiful red embellished bag from Zara because it really brings out the colors of the embroidery on the jeans and adds a nice pop of color.

Ciao,

Kimono Vibes

Kimonos are really popular these days whether it be in the form of shorter tops or longer robe-esque pieces. Pairing kimono tops with a pair of jeans really gives your outfit that effortlessly chic look. I decided to pair my top with a pair of lighter wash jeans so that it could really stand out and be the star of the outfit. I also think this kimono top would look good with a pair of culottes as well.

Fall Uniform

This outfit is my uniform this season. I would wear it everyday if I could! It's so comfy yet stylish.

I recently got these mules from Zara and I wasn't expecting much in terms of comfort but they are actually one of the comfiest shoes I own! I've worn them for a few hours without my feet hurting. If you're looking for a pair of leather mules, I highly recommend this pair by Zara. I love how easy they are to slip on! I've also been really into pairing flowy tops with looser jeans because it's such a super chill look. When it gets cooler, you could just throw on a chunky sweater and call it a day.

Festive Indian Outfit by Bhumika Sharma

Today's post is a little different from my usual posts because I decided to feature this gorgeous Indian outfit by Bhumika Sharma. I wanted to wear in Indian outfit for this post for two reasons. The first reason being that Diwali is this Sunday (Diwali is the festival of light and signifies the victory of good over evil and is one of the biggest Indian festivals of the year). The second reason is that wedding season in India is in full swing so I thought this would be a good example of an outfit that can be worn if you are a guest at a wedding.

I think this outfit would be great for either Diwali or an Indian wedding because it's so comfortable and easy to wear. Now, if you're Indian, you know that Diwali functions and Indian weddings call for lots of dancing and this outfit is perfect for that. It's so flowy, lightweight, and easy to manage that you won't have any trouble dancing the night away in it. Some traditional Indian outfits can be heavy and wearing them for long periods of time can be a full-on cardio session. It's also hard to find intricate and elegant details in an outfit that's more on the lighter side. However, the outfit I'm wearing in this post is not only lightweight but also features absolutely breathtaking embroidery that really ups the glam factor of the overall look without compromising comfort.

I wore this outfit in two ways. In one look, I paired it with a tikka, which is an Indian headpiece, and in the other look, I decided to wear it without the tikka, to show how it can be worn in a more casual way as well. The versatility of this outfit is yet another reason why I love it so much.

I ordered this outfit and the tikka from Pernia's Pop-Up Shop which is an online fashion store (based in Mumbai, India) that offers a hugeeee variety of Indian outfits and accessories made by top designers in India. I highly recommend that you check it out if you're looking for an Indian outfit to wear for any occasion!

Happy Diwali to all who celebrate!

Ciao!
