Nope I am not talking about those Shades of grey. Even back in the student days when I didn’t wear anything other than flip flops and sneakers-I had a pair of metallic grey heels.After wearing them to death for over two years,I finally discarded them last month and replaced them with brand new ones- I love “All [...]
My shoe collections pre-dominantly consists of neutrals and heels.Slowly I am trying to change that by incorporating color and different heel heights.These super cute Chelsea flats in a rich oxblood color are perfect to wear out on a casual day. Given how much use I get out of my Revas I have come to the conclusion that [...]

The Perfect Accessories: Skinny belts to pair with pencil skirts,Glittery gold heels which are perfect for an evening out and a Leopard print belt.

I have been on the lookout for a very specific type of maxi dress-Ideally I wanted a maxi dress which wasn’t cut too low in the front (or back) but at the same time wasn’t shapeless or baggy and I wanted all this under the $25 price point (I don’t wear maxi dresses too often and [...]
Now that it is November, I am officially allowing myself to get excited about the upcoming holiday season.In my head festivities and glitter go together. A simple black sheath dress paired with glittery heels and a sock bun is the perfect outfit-no matter what the holiday it is.Its a great outfit to wear to a [...]
I think tan is such a classic color for fall.My go to outfit for the past few days has been the reva slingbacks with a button down shirt tucked into a pencil skirts.I add classic pave stud earrings, a slim skinny belt and I feel put together in no time at all. I love the gold hardware and [...]

I know summer is over but when I saw these cap toe wedges on super sale (They were marked down to 9.99) I had to get them.I really like the contrast between the canvas and the leather cap toe. A quick tip: To save money shop off season-shop for summer items (shorts,wedges,swim-suits) at the beginning [...]
Tackling my shoe collection. -Ash. More pictures here. P.S. Sneak peek of how the shoes look on the rack here.
No matter how many times Vogue and Cosmo editors tell me that Leopard print is a wardrobe must have- I am not buying it (Literally-Not buying it-No Leopard cardigans or skirts are making an appearance in my wardrobe anytime soon). I don’t think I will ever be bold enough to rock a leopard dress or a leopard pants, but I definitely want to incorporate hints on leopard in my wardrobe.So far I [...]
Toning down the color palette is a quick way to upgrade your wardrobe for fall and winter.The bright coral’s and dazzling neons give way to soft rich shades like chartreuse, emerald and oxblood.Each season I experiment with clothes incorporating color and adding diversity to my wardrobe.The only exception to that rule is- shoes.When it comes to work shoes I am plain [...]
Suede is such a perfect texture for fall and winter.I had scored these shoes on super sale at Talbot’s and couldn’t be happier with my purchase.Generally I find bows a little too distracting but on these shoes they add an element of intrest which I really like. What is on your fall shoe wish list-flats,boots,pumps? [...]
I have been on the hunt for a shoe organization system which doesn’t take up a lot of space but at the same time allows me to store all my shoes in a organized fashion.Here are some shoe organization system which are currently available- 1.Shoe Wheel This rotating shoe wheel can store up to 30 pairs of shoes. It comes [...]
One of the things that I have had my eye on for over two years has been the Tory Burch Reva clutch.I love the size of the clutch-its isn’t so tiny that you cant fit anything in it but at the same time its not so huge that it overshadows your entire outfit.Its black so it will [...]
One of my favorite stores to shop at is Talbots-Their clothes are of great quality and the cuts are conservative yet stylish.I don’t shop there often because there isn’t a brick and mortar store close to where I am, which is why when they have an online promotion offering free shipping (I hate paying shipping charges) or a [...]
The long memorial-day weekend brings with it the opportunity to unwind,relax and recharge. My plans for the weekend include attending an outdoor jazz festival, a hour long lesson in portrait photography, finishing the final few pages of a cliffhanger novel and of course some scrumptious meals hopefully taken alfresco. Lately all I have been craving is sandwiches-it might be cause I only ate [...]
For awhile now I have been thinking about writing this post but between taking the GMAT,the craziness that is life and finding the right words to convey what I wanted to say, this post kept getting pushed back.But now that the GMAT is behind me and things have stopped being so crazy, I have a feeling that [...]
I spent the weekend at a leisurely pace getting settled in.After a month of not having to do any cleaning,laundry or grocery shopping there is part of me which has gotten lazy about chores but I am slowly getting back into the swing of things.My fridge is stocked, the laundry basket is semi-empty,the suitcases have [...]
There is something about India that grounds me; Its reminds me of who I am and where I am from. Everywhere I turn, there is history -the playgrounds where I played hopscotch as a kid,the exact spot where my bicycle collided with a car and I ended up with a scar on my elbow,the schools [...]
