The man woman and the gypsy queen

So here's our Vogue.in post which we were talking about.
Jasleen: I was in this half party, half laidback mood and decided to take cues from my husband's wardrobe. I think it's really sexy when women wear androgynous elements and since that is in fashion anyway, isn’t it. This is my take on the yin-yang look with an oversized t-shirt and military-ish boots. The bag is a recent gift from my mum-in-law, a vintage piece she had in her closet from long ago. It has its own lock combination and I am totally digging the briefcase style. It also has a long handle which I still have to grab from her wardrobe. The shoes were also a gift from my cousin Julie in London who has two closets-full of shoes from Jimmy Choo, Gucci and what-not. This is something she gifted me a long long time ago and I don't know why I never wore these. I'm loving them now!
 

Jasleen wore a splash dress with an over-sized t-shirt

  • Don't do a pretty dress and heels, it's too dull and boring
  • Jazz up your dress with a jacket, a button down shirt, a sequined blazer or a tee
  • Instead of doing stiletto heels for a party, try wedges, flats, Oxfords etc. to add a splash of fun with contemporary options like this.
  • Wear your dresses as blouses with short or long pleated skirts, you can use them in multiple ways.
  • Jasleen has worn this dress like a tunic here and as a blouse here.

Sonu: I love going back to the classics and all-black is so slimming, safe and so much fun to work with. Since I was off to a long day of work to the tailor, shopping with some clients, I decided to rock this look that looks fresh till the end of the day and night. But beware of doing too much or getting too rock or Goth. Another thing I love to do is mix black and brown together, it's not a taboo like people think it to be.

  • Don't shy away from mixing odd colours with black. Try beiges, creams, khakis for a twist.
  • The traditional colour palettes are red and black but try and keep away from that and pick a burnt orange or coral or nude pink.
  • Break the monotony of black by adding a contrasting belt or bag or shoes.
  • Sonu has worn these Jodhpuris here and here. She has also worn this bag many times like remember this time and this one too.

  2. I liked Sonu's all-black look, but with accessories to break the monotony. I was just thinking of wearing an all-black outfit soon, and this seems to be a cool way to rock it without looking like a witch. :-)

  7. Lovely! The photo effects in the beginning are really effective. And I love your new masthead and contents...
    But Sonu, I'm disappointed! Just because I don't hound you to see TV Talk and comment, like you did to me for Fashion Bombay in the beginning, doesn't mean you can't drop a comment or two once in a while!
