Hi friends, Its been ages since I posted my OOTD on my blog. I guess the last OOTD was around 2 years back. The reason of my absence was of course the fact that I got pregnant and after my delivery, I had put on a lot of weight. Thankfully, now I am almost back to what I used to look like before, though still need to work out a lot. I try to fit my workout schedule in between my regular chores and motherhood duties.

Ever since I began wearing jewellery, I've found myself indulging more in working my outfit and other accessories around them. It might feel strange, but many times it has happened with me, that I loved a particular set of earrings, bought it and then had to search for an outfit (or buy a new one!) to compliment it. Does it happen with you too, or am I the only one mental here to work my outfit and accessories like this? Anyways, Statement pieces have always been my priority as far as accessories are concerned, and over a span of past few years, I have got a little collection of my own. Most of the stuffs are purchased from street shops and online shopping portals.

4 Things to Consider When Matching Clutch Bags with Party Dresses There's nothing more fun for women than getting all dolled up for a wonderful evening out. It's all about the dress, hair, makeup, shoes and the clutch to complete your outfit. Anything you carry will draw people's attention at the party, and therefore it has to look stunning. Wondering which clutch will match well with your favorite party dress? No need to worry. These key considerations can help you get that perfect look for your night out: 1.

The Fight Against Tarnish: How to Keep Your Silver Shining I have always loved silver jewellery, I prefer it to gold because it ages so well, as long as you're wearing it. So what happens when you don't wear it? Well it develops a patina and then begins to tarnish, which isn't the look you're usually going for when you wear silver jewellery. So How does Tarnishing happen and how can we prevent it? A Chain Reaction Most people think that tarnishing occurs due to the oxidisation process that happens when silver is exposed to oxygen in the air over a long period of time. But tarnishing actually occurs when the silver reacts with the sulphur or hydrogen sulphide in the air, however it will also react to other chemicals over a long time span. So wearing your jewellery in pools, baths, doing the washing up, most activities where all or part of your jewellery will be submerged in a mild chemical environment is going to have some effect on the silver. A Little...

People who follow the fashion world obsessively because they don’t have that same instant nature. They have to work hard to be on trend and this is how they do it. Tak...

Faces Foundation brush review Faces Foundation Brush My experience with this Faces Foundation brush Though I already have stippling brush, foundation brush, buff brush and makeup sponges with me, I do tend to use my fingers most of the times to apply foundation. However, I've always noticed a great deal of difference in the finishes I get from same foundation with the change in applicators. From my experience with foundation brushes, I've felt that it takes a bit more time in getting smoother and natural looking coverage on face, as compared to sponges or buff brushes. When I tried this Faces foundation brush, I was pretty impressed on how easily it got me that natural finish without making my foundation look overdone or streaky at all.

Image source A necklace will have different lengths, but within each length there are a multitude of styles.  You can findthe perfect necklace online if you search by size rather than by style, since you should only purchase a jewelry piece that you already know will fit you.  Many necklaces will have extra links so that they can be adjusted; the clasp for links will add as much as an extra inch to the overall length.  Adjustable necklaces are also the best choice when you are buying a gift for someone else and you do not know what their specific size is.  Any dress that has a straight neckline that reveals a lot of shoulder and chest space will not need a lot of jewelry in order to get attention, so minimal tend to be better.  If you have a strapless gown, a shoulder-less dress, or a low-cut top, your choice in jewelry should be complimentary and not gaudy.  A tight, choker necklace suits the bill here, as a strand of crystal, thin gold or silv...
