Long time no Outfit Post!

I know it's been for ever since I did an outfit post because you know.....so many reasons!
Anyhoo, here I am! So basically I am bit busy with my work and two exhibitions next month which is why I didn't have anything to post for a while.
But last week, my sister came back home along with her friend. So we decided to show her our city, since her friend is from Malaysia and its her first time in Kolkata.
So our first and only tourist destination, the Victoria Memorial. I wore tangerine jeggings and the overly cliche'd monochrome stripe tunic with gold accessories and a messy hairdo.
Enjoy the pictures.

Fascinated or Fixated Fridays


Thank God it's Friday! 
I am extra happy since I get a long weekend due to the festival Eid.
So for this week's Fascinated or Fixated Fridays post I thought I will add to my review of 
'A' by Anubha.

For the uninitiated, 'A' by Anubha is a California based high-end designer label of khadi oriented clothing by Anubha Srivastav.


Launched in October last year, 'A' started with the Autumn Winter collection of Khadi jackets and has gone a long way since then. Currently, 'A' supplies jackets to Gotham City Film Studios, a Los Angeles based company, and is available online through her website & Facebook page.

Apart from high-end designer women's wear jackets, 'A' also does smart men's wear jackets for men who dress to impress!

'A' recently launched their Spring Summer range of classy vests & jackets in a myriad of colors. And for a special Indian element, these jackets have a subtle hint of tone on tone chikan embroidery.

 Appropriate for any occasion, these vests can be styled in various looks. I love the asymmetrical design of the sky blue vest.

Aditi Bhatt
"I graduated from NIFT(Gandhinagar) specialising in fashion and lifestyle accessories in 2011. After my course I started working on my label as I always had ideas I wanted to flesh. I wanted to make products that were ‘happy’ vivacious and full of life.And since colours have always been my weakness my products reflect that. I love working with enamel as it’s a versatile and fun medium to play with. I wanted to make jewellery that was fun and colourful and something that also had a strong luxurious feel to it." - Aditi Bhatt, as told to Fascinated or Fixated!

So now let see some of her designs.
