Dressing Up for Fashion Week – What I wore for Lakme Fashion Week

Well yeah technically it is a late post , but who can time fashion because I am more of a classics girl. Also I hate to play by the rules when it comes to dressing-up for going  any where. I am more of a mood dresser, Believe you may not , but I never really plan my wardrobe for fashion week, never ever, I go with the flow and of course my mood that day as in what do I feel like wearing.

The perks of being a blogger also include changing at the Fashion Week if something Designer catches your fancy, yes and I am writing it out aloud that I love my job… actually is it even a job…. its my love for fashion that became my profession and needless to say I wake up everyday felling like  wanting to doing my job… I can’t thank the universe enough for culminating my fashion journey into this….

I am inspired to write the post for, I feel a lot of people who don’t go to Fashion Weeks so often feel overwhelmed with the idea of going. The number one question I get to hear from anyone I know and if they reach out to me when they are going to Fashion week is that what to wear….. My answer is always the same….whatever you feel like… because its fashion week…..

Fashion Weeks have such amazing vibes I feel , you could choose to be anyone there… you could be quirkiest or most basic, your fashion expressions are judged yet not judged. I love hanging out there and just observing people. You see all kinds, the ones who really try too hard to be cool and the ones who are really super cool…  I can’t even even describe the mood.

I would like to believe that I don’t try too hard and this post is all about that. I am sharing my outfit images from all through the week , what I wore , how I styled . I always keep it basic and about me , how I feel like , I don’t become a different person just because its Fashion Week. Trust me I even say the same sloppy jokes there…… hahahhaa…..!!!

Day 1

My friend and one of the most talented new designers Banjaaran was showcasing her Designs as she had been Chosen as one of the Grazia’s Best Upcomig Designers.  Mehandee is an amazing shoe designer who has now also launched her clothing label too, she had brought with her a Banjaaran dress for me  that I paired with my distressed jeans and my super comfy boots , with my Round sunglasses and voila I was fashion week ready. PS: I had written a Blog piece on how cool was the Banjaaran Label was, read here


BTW thats her with me and I am super happy and proud of her here and I completely loved the dress she gifted me.

Day 2: Sustainable Fashion Day

As I write this piece I have suddenly realised that I have super talented friends. Next on is the linen Saree by Nadiya Paar , Megha my lovely friend whose brand it is, designs these very earthy and sustainable linen Sarees that I am a big fan of, intact I did a blog piece on her Sarees and how to Drape them differently here… So in case you haven’t noticed the Bag, shoes and the sunnies remain same…. I told you I am not trying too hard kind of girl…..very basic…. because that was the mood I was in. Just threw in my favourite red lipstick and mismatched the saree with my custom made blouse….. and voila I was fashion week ready…..

Day 3

I wanted to cheer for one of my favourite silk saree designers at his show, Shailesh Singhania so I decided to wear one his sarees , I paired it with my stripped off shoulder top, silver jhumkis and tied my hair in a bun with a middle parting. Mind you the bag and shoes remained same….and I guess so did my red lipstick look from day before…

I wore a green leather Kate Spade skirt and layered it with Organza jacket from Scotch & Soda. Well I must have been mood of sunnies change that day, so from larger round ones I shifted to smaller round ones… hahhahahha…..I must add that same shoes and bag went for another round at LFW….

I had been under the weather all through the week, but it was fashion week and I wouldn’t miss it for a thing , at least till I could manage my energies and health to be working for me I was pulling through. It all took toll on me and I couldn’t attend the last day , was majorly sick for about 10 days after that.

I hope you enjoyed reading this and how I styled very simple street style looks. The whole Idea to write this blog was to inspire you all to experiment a bit without loosing the essence of who you are. Fashion week or no Fashion week….have fun dressing up and never ever try to fit in ………
