Hola my lovelies,
I know most of you have been writing to me as to where I am and why the blog wasn't being updated. There were some technical snags with posting because of which I could not post for a while :( But now, everything is sorted and I am back in action... :-)
It's been a long time since I did any OOTD posts. Although I wanted to do many, but some how didn't feel inspired enough to go ahead. I always want to showcase something that is for women who defy the much hyped norms related to body size and figure. I am a curvy girl and I am proud of it. So whatever comes here should be for more of the proud women like me.
I recently came across this fabulous brand called Meraki a Creative Soul on Instagram. The name was quite intriguing enough and a look on their page got me hooked. Unlike many other sellers, Meraki doesn't sell stuff in bulk which means each piece comes with a exclusivity. The brand, run by two awesome women, sources their material directly from the weavers and focuses on traditional designs like Kalamkari, Ikat, Chanderi, Benarasi, Handblock and more. What more, it caters majorly to a handloom lover like me who feels the indian loom designs are the best. To top it all, Meraki's packaging is also awesome. Instead of using polybags, they send the stuff in bags made from pure cotton which are recyclable.
What a beautiful thought even for smallest of details :-)
I chose some lovely pieces from their collection which I decided to style for some everyday and some festive looks.
Presenting the everyday look,
Because everyday is a memory ft Meraki
If you love prints like Kalamkari, Ikat and block print, you must check out Meraki A Creative Soul. They have a fabulous collection which is beautiful and perfect for monsoon changing to autumn weather. The breeze is turning a bit cooler, however it does get a bit humid at times and in such weather, cotton is just perfect.
I wanted to do a simple everyday look that one can sport any where... to college, to office, for running errands, going to kids school, a meetup with friends, coffee date, evening out... whatever. For someone who doesn't want to sport westerns but feels the most comfortable in fusion wear.
And for this, I chose a black base kalamkari print Palazzo from Meraki. Made from pure cotton, these Palazzos have a nice flair which makes them super comfortable even if you get drenched. They are soft and dyed with natural colours making the fabric quite eco friendly too.
I teamed the palazzos with a solid black cotton kurta with roll up sleeves. For accessories, since I wanted to keep it simple, I just wore black wedges, a simple watch, a small ring and oxidised earrings. The palazzo pants were so beautiful that they did not require any more accessories. See the photos below for more.
One can team these palazzos even with short top in yellow, white, black or mustard. You can go dressy for the accessories too since the design is subtle and allows you to play.
I kept my hair open as I love the breeze playing with my hair. For makeup, I kept my eyes simple with just my favourite winged liner and on lips, it was my new favourite, Colourpop Ultra Matte in Tulle.
I am absolutely in love with these Palazzo pants and they are not just comfy, but super affordable too. Do check out Meraki's collection from their Instagram page and I am sure you would not at one.
P.S - one more look coming soon :-)
