A DAY WITH RAAIKA

Warm greetings from us to you'll.

Hope everyone is in great health and doing well in their respective lives.
It's been a while since we are MIA from the blogging world and that is because we needed to calm down a bit to sort ourselves and everything happening in our life but then we gotta do what we love doing and so, here we are.

Let's get to the main content of this post. Recently, we were approached by this newly launched clothing brand named RAAIKA (https://www.raaika.com/) which has a variety in sections like Tops, Dresses, Jumpsuits etc. From the vast choices that we were given we selected the "Ruffles on my mind top" and "The Plain Jane Dress"

POOJA
Pooja opted for the "Ruffles on my mind top" which she styled with a pair of blue high-waist jeans and black pumps.

LINNET

Love for Long and Flowy

Hello everyone,

Hope you all are having an amazing day. So, this is a small effort that we are taking to try and build more content on the blog. Like many of you know, I am working and it’s a little difficult for Pooja and to keep coming up with content together. Don’t worry we are not splitting!  

But for now, be it collaborations or personal style choices, we have decided to post as many posts as possible. So that means, sometimes you all will see just one of us on the blog.

So let me start with my first solo, by sharing my love for long flowing tops. Everyone’s fallen trap (in a good way) to the trend of wearing long tops with high slits. It’s super flattering and makes a woman look curvy and sexy. This trend is still something that entices me but I wanted to try variations in cuts and style.

I got this top from Max Fashion within Lifestyle whilst I was shopping for my sister’s wedding during Diwali last year. Its fit was perfect and I loved the way it flowed on my body. The A – line top is actually a kurta that can be worn as a shirt dress, long top or a kurta! This is one thing I love about such tops!

In this post, I am sharing 2 looks using the same kurta. One is with an Indian touch and the other is bold and bohemian.   

For the Indian look, I am wearing jeans instead of leggings or churidar because I personally feel kurta’s look amazing with jeans. It just gives your body that extra lift.

In my second look, I am wearing the same kurta as a shirt dress (the buttons don’t open; otherwise I could use it as a jacket too). I paired it with a leather jacket and boots.

I am planning to create more such content with personal style choices. Please feel free to let me know your suggestions regarding this.

See you soon. 

Welcoming Summer with Talons D'or

Hey Everyone!

How did you all spend your weekend? I am sure you all had something exciting planned! Feels so bad that we got to wake up and work the next morning. But that’s how it is going to be right? Unless you work and learn you will never grow (just being a little philosophical here).

Talking about our new blog? WE CUSTOMISED OUR SHOES! Blame it on our job, but we have been really fortunate to get a chance to try some great products!

So, every time I see a beautiful pair of shoe in magazines or Instagram, the first question that pops up, where can I buy these?  I am sure everyone has been through this! Sometimes even if you get that perfect pair, you don’t find your size (story of my life).

 In such situations TalonsD’or steps in like a savior! As it is lets you customise your own shoes. The best part is you have the provision to select every detail of your shoe. Honestly, we didn’t expect designing to be so difficult. We had so many options that it spoilt us for choice. But luckily, we could see the shoes we were designing as they have a 3D virtual thing on their website (please excuse my technical knowledge). This made our journey way easier than expected.  Trust us on this, if you love a good pair of shoes, you must have a look at Talons D’or and design your own shoes.

For our blog, Pooja paired her cream toned shoes with a peach skater dress from Stalk Buy Love. Bright lips and a black handbag completed her easy summer look.

I paired my black shoes with a printed skater dress from Max Fashion. Pink lips and a black bag completed my look.

Skater dresses are super comfortable and looks great for day and well as night. Wear a light coloured dress for the day and a printed skater dress for the night. Wear bright pinks and corals on your lips, because why not? Its summer!

Spoke about shoes, dresses and summer! Hope you enjoy this happy summer post until next time.

Bhbyee! 

When Vogue meets Vogue

Hey! Hey! Hey! 

Yet another day where we got to do something we love. 

So our photographers love Aaray Colony and keep insisting on going there for a shoot. Though I am a sucker for scenic locations I am lazy when it comes to travelling. Finally I listen to them and we head towards Aaray. 

 

I woke up with a heavy head that morning but the beautiful and mysterious roads of Aaray blew my mind. Pooja was excited too, as the roads looked like those typical Bollywood scenes where the actors would romance with each other. 

Talking about our outfits now, we decided to wear our super comfortable and stylish pieces from Vogue and Me for this shoot.

 Pooja wore a box pleated skirt from their collection and paired it with a simple blue top. She carries a beautiful white Lotus giving her outfit a feminine touch.She added closed toed wedges with floral details on it.  Lately Pooja has been wearing a lot of monotones. She loves playing with shades of blue and red (This is what I have noticed).

I selected this LBD from their collection which has #OOTN printed on it. I loved how easy the entire look of the dress was. I could imagine wearing this shift dress almost every day! The cuts are so clean and perfect for a day to night look. I paired them with my new slip on’s that I purchased from KOOVS. 

After all the cow dung’s and mosquito bites, we managed to get some beautiful shots at Aaray. I am sure our photographers are happy now.  :)
