Fascinated or Fixated Fridays

Its weekend time!

Well so I thought I will share my latest designs from my label, Anra, with you all. Also, on this note, let me announce, that I am participating in yet another exciting exhibition in town, called High Street Market via Moda - Monsoon Blues 2013. 

It's happening on 1st August from 11:00 Am to 11:00 Pm. 

So if any of you are in Kolkata and are fashion lovers, do visit my stall, I will be there throughout the day spreading my love for handwoven textiles.

So now let me show you some pictures of the latest shoot I did!

I sometimes wonder how at times I get really fascinated by some trends or colors for a really short while and then there are times when I get too stuck up on certain things as if I am fixated. Like for example, if I talk about colors, every season I have a new favorite. Right now its Coral. But the color that has kept me fixated  forever is Pink. 

Does it also happen to you guys or am I the only weird one?

If you are like me, I would love to hear about your fascinations or fixations, so do comment below to let me know how you like my latest designs? 

Fascinated or Fixated?

Outfit Post - Neon+Pastel

My favorite colors this season are everything in neon and everything in pastel. A store window with neon/pastel clothed mannequins staring at me in flashy lights can bring happiness to me in the most gloomiest days. So, I just had to buy this neon coral colored blouse top from Vero Moda. Its really sheer and I love the tie-up string at the neckline.

Anyways, in my last post I wrote about my online shopping experience at fashion accessories brand Addons at their online website www.addons.co.in 

As I had mentioned that I really love their collection of necklaces, bracelets & earrings. The collection is absolutely contemporary, chic & trendy yet reasonably priced. Here are a few of the designs I liked.

And now moving on to what I bought which is a neon green tribal inspired necklace and a black cutwork encrusted with diamonte bracelet.

 And I paired these with my coral blouse mentioned above and black jeggings.

Shopping Experience at Addons - Review!

Accessories are a must have for everyone. 

Accessories were used to enhance a person's outfit but now-a-days its the opposite. Previously we would buy a dress and then look for complimentary jewellery or bags or shoes but now we buy a statement necklace first and then buy the perfect dress for it.

On that note, let me introduce Addons - an accessory brand that brings together an amazing range of high quality men's & women's accessories. 

Women's accessories includes handbags, fashion jewellery, belts, scarves, eye wear and hair accessories.

Addons is all about your desire for heavenly accessories. Known for its exquisite and extensive collection, Addons will cater to all your needs!

They have stores in all major cities across India, plus they have an online shop as well. You can find them at Forum Mall in Kolkata.

I was really impressed by their website and the collection is so tempting. I ended up buying a neon green tribal inspired necklace and fancy charm bracelet. The shopping experience was pleasant. I opted for COD for the first time in my life. I had placed my order on 2nd July, which got dispatched on 3rd July and I received it on 6th July. And all in perfect condition.

I am in love with this brand and good news for all the ladies, Addons is having their end of season sale so don't wait. Rush to their stores now!

An outfit post is on the way. Stay tuned!

Monsoon Magic

Monsoon Magic

Kurti - Anouk from Myntra

Leggings - Pantaloons

Bellies - Accessorize

Bag - Pratha

Earrings - Spencers

Its almost monsoon here in Kolkata and its been a well mix of sunny & rainy days. I have been a little busy with work lately but here I am with an outfit post after a long time. 

I really like the print play and the lovely indigo color of this kurti from the Indigo collection of 'Anouk' bought online at Myntra. The pink button detailing is also very nice.

And let me tell  you about this pretty bag that I am carrying. Its a hand block printed clutch bag from a Varanasi based brand callled 'Pratha', designed by Parul Shah.  I met her at my last exhibition where she was showcasing her collection as well.

Also, I got a new haircut and its short. I am feeling really skeptical about it so do share what you think of this new hairstyle. Not that I can do much about it now!

Hope you all have a magical monsoon weekend! 

Anra @ Colors - The Perfect Palette

My first exhibition in Kolkata was a reasonably good experience. It was a three day event wherein a lot of brands had come together to showcase their collections. My stall space was a little small but I tried to make the most out of it. 

So here are a few pictures of my stall -

My handmade scarf display heads

Handmade jewellery and folders

Moving over to what I was wearing during the event. I wore tunics from my own collection on both days.

Day 1 - I wore the layered vest inspired tunic made with handwoven cotton tant with yellow leggings. This style got sold out on the first day! 

Day 2 - I wore a teal colored tunic made with cotton and silk tant with tangerine jeggings and finished the look with a mustard cotton scarf.

I had a lot of fun meeting new people and making new friends. I am also thankful to my friends and family for all their support. I hope this would prove to be a stepping stone in my career.  *Fingers crossed*
