Quirk it up!
Designer Anikate Satam believes that the “best way to instantly uplift any ensemble is to inject a dash of unexpected fun.” Offbeat options and eccentric ideas “enliven even the simplest of outfits.” In fashion, quite simply there are “no rules, so have fun when putting different pieces together.” Real personal style comes from being able to combine unexpected pieces, “with a twist to bring it all together.”
Scarf Appeal
Scarves are available in a variety of fabrics, colours and prints, and they can add a wonderful touch of whimsy to everything ranging from a jeans and t-shirt combination, to formal dresses, to suits for the workplace. Designer Shougér Doshi believes that they are “incredibly versatile, can be draped and worn in numerous ways and therefore are a vital component for every kind of wardrobe.” She suggests “picking lighter scarves in whites and pastels for the summer and deeper tones of plum and tan for the winter.”
An Unexpected Bag
Pria Kataria Puri recommends adding a fun, quirky and statement-worthy bag to complete your look. “Even the simplest of outfits can become eye popping when you add an eye catching bag to complete your look.” Bags are not just functional and handy, but they are they perfect way to up your style quotient. For an outstanding effect you can pick from “leather designs, feather motifs, neon pops, old Bollywood prints and more.”
Shoe Shine
Rajat Tangri believes in the mantra, more is more when it comes to shoes! He says, “It is very easy to find the perfect match for any outfit on any given day since there is such a wide variety to choose from. They may be teamed beautifully with jeans, or even an hâute couture gown. Be brave and experiment with unusual and trendy designs, such as thigh high gladiators, neon heeled sneakers, or shoes covered in big, bold prints.”
Jewellery for the Tresses
Swapnil Shinde reiterates that hairpieces are big this season. “Try art deco inspired 20s hair bands or go vintage chic with coral pins. Experiment with a simple braid leftover lace piece as a bohemian gypsy band for an elegant yet fun look.” Hairpieces that are appropriate for daytime are, “simple, non-fussy ones” and at night, “elaborate and glamorous ones.” The perfect way to add an extra touch of femininity and grace to your look.
