Things That Wont Ever Go Out Of Style!






Well.. I'v always been a fashion freak.. So here's a post which is VERY MUCH my 'forte'.. So here goes.. My idea of the top ten items (clothes, accessories, etc.) that would never go out of style!

  1. To start with something globally classic.. THE white shirt. Anyone can wear it! Whether you are a nurse with no accessorisation or a supermodel with full on awesome accessories to carry out THE white shirt with aplomb, you can never go awfully wrong with it.. Lets say its the fashionably safe zone one can be in!
  2. What comes after THE white shirt? THE blue denims! You can get it big, medium, small! You can get it straight cut, boot cut, slim fit. You can get it with chains or without them! THE blue denims is something every Tom, Dick and Harry owns! Not to mention Melissa, Parvati and Lucy!
  3. Then comes the LBD baby! The ensemble, besides the wearable tweeds, made Chanel immortal! By becoming so itself! The Little Black dress comes in every shape and size! Every hemline, every kinds of sleeves imaginable, every kind of embroidery, every kind of sequins, collars can be found on it! It has no boundaries! But has one limitation.. It HAS to be LITTLE! But who's complaining right? Personally.. I like the simple LBD. With tasteful accessorisation.
  4. THE saree! Sarees are Indian.. Check. Makers are mostly Indian.. Check. I am an Indian so I am allowed to be biased towards it.. Check. It looks good just on Indians.. Cross!!! It looks good on every woman! Actually.. IT looks good on every woman and also MAKES the woman look good! Its hottt!!! Every kind! Partial towards.. The Sabyasachi Mukherjee kind.
  5. The Manish Arora creations. Vulgar. Colorful. On-the-face. Daring. Imaginative. Creative. Style. He is THE greatest craftsman in my opinion. His clothes.. WHENEVER he made them can never ever ever go out of style. Simply because they belong to a different world he belongs to.. Which we can just hope to try and discover..
  6. The Trench Coat! Team it up with a dress, your denims, even the saree! It looks absolutely stunning! Provided you know how to wear it! And provided you love and appreciate it.. It is something.. which will reciprocate your love for it by making you look good!
  7. The tweed trousers.. These babies.. Will never go out of style! Provided it is made for you.. And you are made for it!
  8. Stilettoes! Not right for a certain places.. Not good for regular use.. But hey! Who's talking about convenience here?! They make you look tall(er) and make you feel sexy! And are always in style!!! But make sure they are well made.. Badly made stillettoes can affect your posture and cause health problems!
  9. Beautiful healthy well kept and cared for hair.. For a man that is his pride.. For a woman, her pride and her natural ornament! Whether they are straight or come down in cascading curls, done up tastefully or let down in a fashionably crazy way, they will always be in style..
  10. The way you carry yourself and what you wear. This is in this list because.. I have seen loads of people wearing absolutely crazy clothes! But look good, even impressive just because the clothes suit them.. And they know that! That's how carrying yourself with panache works! THAT never goes out of style! But also to master this.. you have to know yourself!
This is not a guide.. Its just my opinion and passion! I would love to know what you would like to add to this list! Till then.. A stylish adieu!

Ten Things That Make Me Cry..

Read a blog where the writer was talking about ten things that would make him cry.. :).. So I decided I would also jot them down.. My be That would help sort myself! Even if its just a bit! Ok.. Here goes..

1. Absurd things! Like movies which are not very significant or important but make an impact (on me), blogs which touch me, articles about stuff I really feel for (animals, earthquakes, etc.)..

2. Anger! Mostly my sister and family.. But nowadays a few more people seem to be way too interested to get their names added to this list!

3. Onions..

4. When I'm hurt and can't cry.. I listen to songs which I know would make me cry! Which they do! So does vodka. :)

5. Some TOTALLY random stuff.. Like the other day I was returning home from my art class with mom by the metro.. She sat down and i was standing.. And I saw strands of grey hair! And I felt a sense of deep devastation! Couldn't cry there though!

6. Somethings that always manage to make me feel like crying.. are change, death and anything to do with harm to nature and animals.

7. When I don't have college, and I'm home alone a lot.. It makes me think. More so when I go to bed. In the darkness when nothing is moving, my mind starts working more than I can handle.. And i start to think of bad stuff which I shouldn't. That does the trick.

8. Friends who don't act like friends.

9. Relationships which don't turn out as expected.

10. Too much of happiness.. :)

Morbid topic.. with a happy ending! Hee hee! :D

Outside my house..

There is a saying-'Man is a social animal'. But while trying to establish this fact and to prove it (sometimes forcefully) that its true, men, i.e., Homo sapiens, forget that first and foremost before 'social' or any such hypocritical bullshit, man is an animal. A huge explanation can be given about this but my blog is not a biological thesis so that can kept for later.. What I'm trying to say here is that in this age of convenient forgetfulness, there are some individuals who have been able to keep this identity.. even if it was a result of compulsion. As my friends who call me at night would know, my 'para' is inhabited by many street dogs who decide to converse with each other at night right when everyone falls asleep.. Which is not when i do so more often than not i have to hear them growling, barking, howling, etc. This should irritate me (and it does when i cant hear my friend whose on the phone) but it doesn't because i love them.. I used to feel me and till a certain extent my sister (her focus is mainly the cats) were the only people to love and care for these dogs till the other day when i saw this woman giving them bits to eat, scolding them like her children, talking to them like her friend.. If it was to be anyone else i would've been jealous.. But she was a tramp. She is as fat as just her skin wrapped around her bones would permit her to be. When she sleeps with her 'chadar' around her, she'l appear to be a heap of worn out cushions. Her approach towards those dogs, like giving them her meagre share of food, is absolutely 'human' (as the term was originally meant to mean). She is a woman who is completely unaware of the science related to man being an animal and blah blah.. She has seen society behave in a certain degrading way towards the animals.. Still she has the conscience enough to behave in the right way. That is what a makes a worthy personality.. Spreading happiness in her own small way.. Even if the world doesn't ever get to know of her.

Life.. A Cliche..


I'm calling this piece-of-mind a cliche as many articles have been written about life. This one's kind of similar to them but different from all of them in the same degree as they are from each other. On the account that different people have written about life from their own point of view.. This is not a point of view though.. May be that's where its different! I just have questions.. Don't understand if they are rhetorical or not! 'What is life?'-is it when I hold someone's hand or is it when i take my hand from his? Is it when I achieve something or is it when i accept defeat? Is it when I'm afraid of taking the opportunity or is it when I take it and come out a winner? Is it when I set out on a quest to find a friend or when I find the 'best' one? Is it when I run away from love or when a video reminds me of it? Is it you or is it me?
May be life is all about questions! May be life is an answer which was, is and always is right in front of us but starkly invisible..

First Step

I know I'm probably too young or immature or whatever to think about the stuff that come and visit my head... But they are too complex for me to handle all by myself! Guess that's why I joined blogger in the first place. Sometimes I think about life.. Other times about death.. Still other times I think about stuff using logic that more often than never make sense! For example, the other day I was sitting with my dad and trying to study for my exam.. And a stray thought just decided to visit my head at that precise moment-if everything is indeed temporary (the reason behind people 'leaving' us) then those people's leaving us must also be temporary! So, basically, either some things are not temporary or everything is actually permanent.. Sounds like a complicated maths problem to me! Being new here, I don't know how much I'm supposed to write here or how much people actually write.. And anyway, need to go back to my studies ! So, to whoever made the kind effort to tolerate this confused teens ramblings, adios till my next post! :)
