Styling over the knee socks.

It's winter!!!! Winter is honestly one of my favorite seasons especially because i'm a big fan of layering!! Winter is the perfect season for that and the possibilities for your outfit are endless! If you're creative enough ,you can wear all your favorite pieces at the same time too! I have been wanting to get these over the knee socks since ages and I finally bought a set of two from my all time favourite store FOREVER21!!! And what better time to wear them than now! I'm not a huge fan of jeans during winters.They aren't exactly warm and wearing anything extra under or over them generally gets super stuffy. I would rather wear shorts and dresses and a zillion layers of stockings and tights. They look super cute and you can layer them till you feel warm enough.

So, I decided to style my lovely over the knee socks in three ways. This was pretty challenging for me as this is the first time i'm actually trying them out!!

LOOK 1: WITH SHORTS:

This one is pretty common and one of my favourite looks! For this look I kept it pretty simple! Just a pair of shorts and a sweater with an attached collar and sleeves! I absolutely love the floral print on the sweater!!It's so cute and cozy!!! I kept the accessories to a minimum with these spike danglers and I paired my lovely over the knee socks with these mazing pair of boots that i bought from China!! They are one of the best things i've ever invested in and I got them at a super cheap price! I finished the look off with this messy top knot to really show off the earrings:D Perfect everyday look with a hint of edginess!!

LOOK 2- WITH HIGH KNEE BOOTS:

I love boooooots!! So obviously these high ones had to be included!!!The nautical shirt is a classic and I decided to pair that with this red skirt! I'm not much of a skirt person but this skirt has such a cute cut that I couldn't resist.!! I finished off the look with this gorgeous belt that I recently bought and this statement necklace which i've been dying to wear!! The black over the knee socks are not fully visible but just peek out of the boots :)I love!!! You can also wear stockings with this and wear the socks over that .:) To finish off the look I threw on a leather jacket and some pearl drop earrings and I was good to go! I think this look would work well for semi-formal as well as informal occasions. Perfect for a brunch!!:)

LOOK 3 :WITH A SHORT SKIRT

The short skirt and over the knee socks is a classic look!! For this look , I decided to pair this super cute crop top with this high waisted black skirt. If you look closely the skirt has an embossed design on it which I love. I kept the accessories to a minimum because I think the look is self sustaining. I opted for the bold red lips look and paired this look with these black over the knee socks and these gorgeous snake skin print heels that I bought long ago!:) Perfect party look or maybe work ??

Friday i'm in love.

Having a long break between your exams is probably the worst thing that can happen to you .You end up doing everything except the one thing you should do; study. So,after hours of trying to study and completely failing , I decided to head out into the city and clear my head for a while. The weather was pleasant even though it was mid-afternoon and it made me want to throw on a sweepy loose dress and run around on a beach collecting shells and chasing star-fish. So, I started digging through my closet trying to find the perfect attire to match my mood and instead found this denim shirt that I bought ages ago but never really got the chance to wear and I thought to myself , let me see how many different ways I can wear this in . I thought of a zillion ways but I couldn't exactly change my clothes every 10 minutes to try them all out , so I chose the two looks that contrasted the most: the totally girly girl look and the edgy rock chick look (which I also ended up wearing to dinner ).

For the first look I decided to pair this pretty floral dress and use the denim shirt as a shrug. How can denim and floral ever go wrong?

Denim shirt (being used as a denim vest)- shoppingspringbreak.com
Dress- local shop in brigade road (Bangalore)
Boots-thrifted from some shop in China.

My hair decided to act nice:D

Earrings: koovs.com
(I love the stud detailing on the collar, goes so well with the denim!)

For the second look , I wanted to try something more edgy and less girly.So, I decided to wear an all black ensemble and add a pop of denim to it. The boots gave it the perfect rock- chick look I was hoping to achieve!:)

Black Jeggings- Mango
Black top- Thrifted

Bag: thrifted from Prague

                       
                    

As you can see, for both the looks I kept the accessories to a bare minimum. I felt that the stud detail on the shirt added enough spunk to the outfit . For the second look I wore a thin gold chain because gold on black gives the entire look a very classy yet edgy feel.

If you're looking for similar boots , I would recommend checking Forever21 or Zara...but if you ever visit China, you have to go to the faux-leather exhibition there!You will find amazing bags , shoes and belts at extremely cheap rates . 

Oh, I went for dinner to this place called 20 feet high. Its located on church street, just above three quarter Chinese. I would totally recommend it to anyone who's looking for great ambiance, yummy food and quick service . Its a little bit overpriced compared to the restaurants nearby , but its definitely worth it . I ordered a farm house burger ,which was basically a double chicken patty with cheese and veggies and my oh my did it taste good . In Marshall's words ," it was God , speaking to us in food". So, if you're in the area and cant decide where to eat , go 20 feet high!

Hope you enjoyed this post! Let me know in the comments below which look you liked better and how you would pair those boots or that denim shirt.:)

Until next time,
