My first customized look

This is my third blog and I have decided to be more regular.As I started off with my first blog how i hated the retailers around for being over crowded,Am gonna share how I manage my wardrobe with the same old pieces looking fashion forward and exciting.Last week we(I and my hubby)managed to sneak out to blue ridge mountains.Our destination was Mabry Mills Restaurant.Its a nice place to eat with scenic surroundings.So i decided to renew and recycle my wardrobe for this.I pulled out this super sweet tank top from Mango,which I bought in 2006 from Mumbai.Its peach in color and has Mango printed in gold.This tank I paired with a harem pants,in bright green with multi-color prints.These cotton pants I bought in India this time when I went for a visit.

I paired this look with my chunky bangles,they were all over the market last season and a long multi-colored necklace of stones.My footwear was again from Mumbai(around the same time I bought my tank top).They are pale pink strappy flat chappals with sequins sewn on the straps.This completes my look for a casual day time eat-out.Also I carried my shoulder bag,which I call my airport bag.Its huge enough to accommodate my excess baggage.It has adjusting straps on both the side that can elongate or scrunch it.So for this day I just pulled the straps and gave it a trendy look.Its color is so bright(bright red),that complimented my whole look.
Except harem pants,everything else was from previous season or even older than that.Ancient.But see how well it worked and all eyes on me.Sure,I did get compliments for my bright and so-summer look.
For me the biggest satisfaction was that I found out a whole new wardrobe from my old one and felt absolutely new and in-fashion.Now in the next blog I will use some of these pieces and use them for a different event in a whole new way.

Hii there!!! Thanks for reading friends. I am still not that better from the muscular pain. Its coming back every now and then. So avoiding any hush hush movements. Therefore late posts. BIG SORRY :( Weather is getting really cold up here. Trying all my layering techniques to get some warmth. And this blog came up as a result of the same experiment. Its perfect outfit with layers in this very chilli weather without any show. The complete look. Long skirt, sweater, dupatta, braided hair, colourful and light weight accessories and chunky boots.  I love my Sarong/ Dupatta. Trying to store all the sunshine in it.  Sarong is a multi purpose piece of clothing. It makes up for a good Dupatta here. Duppatta is a quintessential part of Indian outfits. It oozes grace and mystery. Its usually worn to cover upper half body and spreads over head. In many a places its also helps as a traditional veil. I have always had a fascination for a dupatta. I still do and get to wear it a
