All about comfort

When the streets are a mess around this time of the year, obviously because of the monsoons I tend to sulk at home.  I like to watch the rains tugged inside a rug with a cup of hot chocolate ideally but when you’ve got to move your ass because you’ve made prior commitments and are ultimately left with no other option than to suit up that is when I lose my capacity of thinking. I have always preferred comfort over anything. And when the weather is this gloomy I need to get my comfort on making it a point that the gloominess doesn’t kill my vibe!

 I am a sucker for slip-ons. It is my most sought after option on days when I really want to dress up but also drown myself in casuals. I have been loving PRESA for their unconventional collection of flats/slip-ons. I have been swearing by my pairs of presa since the day I’ve got my hands on them. If you’ve been following me on Instagram and Facebook you’ve probably seen my posts wearing them fabulous Presa flats. They are so comfortable and light weight with an amazingly soft upper sole. The designs are so unique that you really can’t settle down with one of their pairs. Every pair is unique and some even portray your mood on certain days.  Here I’ve paired this asymmetrical side draped number with these cool pair of metallic shady black and gold flats. It adds the right amount of jazz and bling to the outfit without making it look overdone. If you are as moody as I am and are really particular about dressing up your mood you are going to get some serious therapy here. So log on to Presaflats.com and treat your soul with some “Won’t burn holes on your pocket” kinda therapy!

Bewakoof-ing || Trend- Joggers and Tank ||

When talking about comfortable clothing we all have that one piece in our wardrobe which is like a staple. I prefer casual outfits any day. It’s more of what defines me. Effortless dressing is what I always prefer. And when it’s so hot and humid like here in Kolkata you’ve got to nail casuals that let some air in and makes it a lot easier for you to cope up with the not so co-operating weather. I love moving around in bottoms which are easy to breathe in and its mind boggling on how I am so obsessed with joggers these days. It’s casual, it’s comfortable and it looks super cool. I love incorporating them with tanks because it is so effortless and it is literally what I aim for along with the whole comfort part.

I had been looking for a particular kind of joggers for months which had some sportiness going around along with the whole casual thing intact. I finally came across these amazing joggers from bewakoof.com and I flipped. They were kind enough to send in the Joggers along with an ox Tank top. It matched my taste and my weird particular need. The parallel white lines along the bottom part of the leg is something that makes it stand out. I paired it with an ox basic tank which clearly reads out what I feel every Monday.  I tucked in the tank this time around instead of tying a knot around the waist line. If you have been hunting for classic casual pieces which match your taste you’ve got to check them out.

My father is a perfectionist and a man of great character and strength. He enjoys his Scotch Whiskey and hence the perfect gift for him would be a bottle of VAT69."

Adding to this, Shibani Dandekar, commented "I love buying gifts for people who I am close to as I know their likes and dislikes. When I am invited to a friend's house I always gift a bottle of Black & White as it's one of the best tasting scotch whiskies today and it always tastes better when shared! If I know someone who has won an award or received a promotion I tend to gift them a bottle of Black Dog to celebrate their achievements."

Razzle Dazzle

It’s monsoon already but I don’t really happen to see any signs of it as yet. It’s equally hot as in summer and after a minute’s down pour its back to being humid. I can only hope for the rain goddess to be kind enough and pour a bit often and for a longer period. It gets really frustrating when it rains for a few minutes and then it’s back to being sunny but the streets are muddy. But we can’t really help Mother Nature’s way of doing things. And we can never understand either. Sigh!

Anyways, be it any kind of weather I am a sucker for flats! And when it comes with a wee bit of heels, and by that I mean block heels it’s a bonus. So Intoto had these amazing pair of flat sandals The Razzle Tassel Heels to name it and I had to have it. Why not? It’s black. It has gold detailing. And it has block heels. Such a win win in every way. I loved how the tassels and the gold detail amped up the look of these gorgeous pair. I couldn’t really afford missing on it. It is so easy and comfortable to walk in. the suede tassels on the top front add up to the boho chic look but the gold buckles on top scream class. Here I worked on a look which is all about summer layering. I chose to put on a pair of high waist denim shorts which I had got years back with a long line white shirt and layered it with a mustard duster jacket. The Intoto sandals sealed the deal. I love how the whole look worked so well.  You can wear these sandals with your boyfriend denims or your skinny jeans as well. These pair of sandals are gonna make you look sassy anyway!
