Hi guys! It’s that time of the month again – when I share my monthly lookbook details! Without further ado, let’s dive right in!
First up is this dress by Label by Ritu Kumar (they do free international shipping on orders above USD $180, by the way). This was actually gifted to me by my mom-in-law. I liked the elegant cut of the dress and its modest style. Perfect for occasions when you want to add a touch of ladylike appeal and class to your look. I borrowed my own mom’s Prada bag and a pair of closed-toed heels to complete the look. I felt like someone out of the 50s in this look - all I’m missing is a prim hat!

From modest to something a bit more modern and edgy, here are two looks I sported in March. One is this crop top and green pants combo from Urban Revivo, a Chinese brand which has a chain of stores in Singapore. This store sort of reminds me of Zara but a slightly cheaper version of it. I threw on a silver necklace which I had purchased a long time ago from Stella & Dot and added my camera bag for a fun, quirky look.

The other look is where I paired my new polka dot blouse from Zara with my old Bershka yellow blazer. You would think that a yellow blazer would be hard to pair with anything but I actually wear it quite often! I paired the blouse and blazer with denim shorts and booties. If I was in a colder climate, I would definitely have worn tights as well – they always look so good with shorts as a winter look.

Now for something a bit more fun and flirty. I bought this dress from Konacoco, a Singapore-based label, which is up and coming. The dress has a very spring/summer feel to it with its frill and flare details and spaghetti straps. But I chose to throw on a utility jacket just to cover up a bit more for a professional event I was attending. The belt and the shoes are matching and kept a neutral nude color given the bright color of the dress.

This look might look familiar! It’s essentially a slightly modified version of the look I styled with the Sezanne polka dot skirt from last month. The only difference is that I turned what was a professional, corporate look (see here) into something more casual by wearing sneakers and putting on a striped blouse. Played around with pattern mixing, using stripes and polka dots. What do you think?

You don’t see me often in Indian ethnic wear. As much as I like wearing desi clothes, I’m just not in the habit of it. But I did pick up this simple suit from Rangriti when I was in Mumbai last December on sale. I liked its peachy orange color with cream. It’s very wearable for the daytime so I hope to wear it a lot more often.
