Haven't saved up for the perfect dress to hit the hot spots in? Don't fret, you can still dress to impress this party season. Fashion stylist Shruti Kothari suggests some Ă¼ ber cool looks for you well within Rs. 2500
Look 1: Fringed benefits
Perk up your style this festive season with fringes, they are back and how! One of the most popular styles, the fringe has been evoked to add flamboyance and fun to fashion. Go revolutionary with boho chic. A well cut skirt flaunts your curves and can be further spiced up with fringes in bright colours or neutral shades. Teamed with polka dots or stripes, fringes lend a great visual appeal to an ensemble.
Purple fringed skirt - Rs. 1200
Polka dotted top - Rs. 550
Beads - Rs. 70
Hair pin - Rs. 50
Total = Rs. 1970
Look 2: Flow boldly
Every designer is swearing by flowing, draping dresses in soft fabrics with funky prints and colours this season. They are perfect for dressing up in the holidays! Go in for neat bow blouses, especially the ones with billowing or bishop sleeves. These look particularly superb in silk or satin. Wear tons of jewellery, but remember to keep it clean and shiny. Don’t hold back; balance the softness with a bit of boldness!
Brown printed dress - Rs. 1300
Stone necklace - Rs. 350
Handbag - Rs. 600
Ring - Rs. 100
Total = Rs. 2350
Look 3: Ladylike and fun
We all love vintage in our wardrobes, the ripples of an era gone by. A rerun of the 1950s and 60s sees shapes that highlight curves and accentuate femininity. Very versatile and fun! Take a hip-hugging sheath dress with a just-below-the-knee hem and flaunt that hourglass figure. Full circle skirts in woollen blends (read Louis Vuitton and Prada, Fall 2010) that are clinched at the waist exude prim and proper style for this holiday season. Try our blue polka dotted mini dress. Take a cue from the gold rush this seasonĂ¢€¦belts, earrings, handbags - it’s time to go bold with gold this New Year!
Blue polka dotted dress - Rs.1000
Earrings - Rs. 250
Waist let - Rs. 300
Clutch - Rs. 500
Total = Rs. 2050
Look 4: Bare that houndstooth
A hot 2010 trend, it’s stylish and if worn well, even a trend setter of sorts. Teamed here is a houndstooth skirt with a black camisole and a fuchsia pink short jacket to add that dash of colour. Thrown in as an accessory is a bowtie just to keep things chic! If you go in for one highlighted colour like purple along with black and white, then highlight the purple in your accessories. But if the print is just on one item of clothing, then unleash that creative beast in you and let it roll!
Jacket - Rs. 1000
Camisole - Rs. 150
Skirt - Rs. 850
Bow tie - Rs. 200
Hair band - Rs. 100
Total = Rs. 2300
Take your pick from any of these styles and look like a million bucks… without burning a hole in your pocket!
