I bought these awesome pair of gold heels a couple of years back and wore them everywhere till the top layer started coming off.
I was not ready to part with them yet since they were still in pretty good shape.
So here's what I did.
Bought spikes, roll of stitched in sequins and fevibond. All I needed the were a pair of scissors.
I tried variations first and then finally measured the distance. Cutting up the strips and gluing the spikes was the easy and fun part.
And here they are all shiny and new. Ready to go out?;-))
Another pair that needed a bit love and care.

How to do a brilliant braid in under 10 minutes.
Pull your hair together to one side. Separate the hair above your hands and put your fore finger and thumb through the hole.
Grab the bottom of your hair and pull through the hole. You will repeat this step over and over until you reach the bottom of your hair.
To make sure you don't have one big hole down the middle of your "braid", put your fingers through one side of the last twist. It's kind of hard to explain but just make sure you don't repeat the step right through the middle each time.
Finish with a clear elastic and you are done! THE. FASTEST. "BRAID". EVER. I cannot wait to wear this in my hair all day every day
Tip- You should have semi-dirty hair, or product to texturize your hair.

Looking to add some fun in your wardrobe? Colourful patterned socks add just the right amount of fun in an outfit without being too away from your comfort zone.
Roll up when wearing them with your denims to add to the casual look.
After all style is in the small details.
Happy weekend.

What to wear to work! by divyatak featuring v neck tops
Ladies its time we dressed for the part too at work. Wearing frumpy, ill fitting clothes serves no purpose.
Do go through the above picture; avoid bold patterns, casual daywear at work, instead opt for simpler chic clothes that represents the strength and power that you are.

Men’s Interview attire:
1. Shirt- A solid colour could be patterned or textured, or a simple stripe would be good too (not too colourful). Collared button up shirt with a white undershirt underneath.
2.Pants dark or khaki.
3.Portfolio, pen and extra copies of your resume.
4.A classic watch
5.Simple Belt
6.Basic pair of socks.Classy and professional is always the way to go.
7.Leather; polished shoes.
8.Two-piece, single-breasted, dark suit(solid color or conservative pinstripes). Opt for suit if you are appearing for senior management corporate interview.
9.Conservative tie (no bowties, bright colors or bold patterns). Opt for a tie only if you are wearing a suit, else only tie might make you look like salesman.
10.Conservative, short haircut. Well groomed hair. Avoid strong cologne.
Entry Level/Mid Level
Paired with dark pants in a neutral tone, a belt, and dress shoes, a solid colour shirt looks business casual—perfect for an entry level job interview. Always remember that if you can see the top of the pants, a belt is a must.
Corporate/ Senior Management
A dark suit is completely appropriate to wear with a tie, provided the tie is not black. A grey striped tie works well with an all black look for a corporate management level job interview.
Creative
For a creative position, ditch the tie, and wear a cool tweed blazer and coordinating belt and shoes. You'll stand out and look sharp, while expressing your creative side.

What to wear to interview! by divyatak featuring clip-on earrings
- Keep it classic with the clothes- Opt for a classic, solid colored, skirt and/or pants suit in a neutral color like black, grey, or navy blue. Be sure to stay away from suits that are too short (more than a thumbs length above the knee), too tight (you can see your pantyline), or too revealing in general (cleavage isn't a good thing in this case). A blouse with small print/ solid (not too bright) color with small details so that the attention is on you.
- Carry simple bag- To safely store extra copies of your resume or presentation without worrying about them being bent or ruined in transit. Also keep your electronic devices to minimum (unless you're interviewing for a tech-related job).
- Always wear comfortable shoes.
- Carry a nice diary and pen.
- Go simple with the makeup and accessories.
- Last but certainly not least confidence. By following these simple rules, you can ensure that you’ll appear intelligent, classy, and professional on the day of your interview. Better yet, you'll look so organized and polished, your interviewer will know you're prepared to start your new position at a moment’s notice.

This is a post dedicated to Sanu and all my Plus oops Happy size friends. I must admit it was not easy to put this post together. Fashion is not kind to plus size women but you crack the code with a few tricks.
1.Tops suggestion- Ideally the tops should fit you well. The gather under the bust shows off the narrow part of your body hence is flattering. Avoid very fancy silhouettes/styles.
2. Dresses Suggestions- The dresses below are simple and chic. I love the detailing around neck. Flowing sleeves are a great idea too. The fabrics should be soft and fluid.
3. Outfit Suggestions- Adding a well fitted blazer to our wardrobe will work wonders. Style the blazer in following ways. Knee length Kurta with embroidered yoke and chudidaar is a great outfit to flaunt. Try out a curved hem for the top, it will definitely take away attention from your hip. Adding a belt at the waist would help you look like you shed kilos. Printed fitted bottoms are a rage right now that you must try.
I hope these tips help you narrow down your options. Pun intended.
I also stumbled upon this amazing blog by a fabulous plus size girl called "Girl with Curves". http://girlwithcurves.com.
Have a great week ahead.

A Chambray shirt is one my favourite key fashion piece in menswear. Its easy to style and maintain (no ironing required). Chambray has evolved from denim, is lighter and softer.
A chambray shirt can be paired with almost anything from a pair of chinos, to colored pants to denims.
Chambray shirts are available with a lot of Denim Brands. Do try them on your next visit.
Have a great week ahead.

Knuckle rings or Midi rings are a big trend right now. Chanel Featured them too in their Fall Winter 13 couture collection.
So what do you think Yay or Nay?

Its been two seasons since colored chinos became a rage. I for one am glad to see men sport some colour. Here are some of my favourite looks and colours.
A word of advice though, to all savvy men out there, choose a colour that suits your style and personality. Do not go overboard while styling. Add neutral tones to your look and balance it out against the coloured chino.
Have fun experimenting.

Choosing your clothes wisely
Choosing what to buy is not easy. But this tip should make it easier.
There are three types of clothes.
- The ones that are fashionable, the classics, and finally, the ones that look good on you.
- These three groups intersect in two smaller groups: fashionable and classic things that look good on you.
- Those are the things you should buy.

The latest trend in womens shoes, transparent or clear. I m calling them the Cinderella Shoes. They could be perfect rain wear. Lookout for them next time you go shoe shopping. They could be an ideal addition since you could wear them with any color.

Here's a weekend getaway look for men. Do keep in mind always, simple is better than overly stylised; every time; each time.
Dress appropriate for the occasion and add jacket incase its meeting friends at a posh place for dinner.
If you are in the ever raining town like Mumbai, do replace the leather shoes with rain friendly ones (not floaters or crocs please). There are some cool options, though very limited available in CROCS, Woodland and various other brands under all weather shoes.
Have an awesome weekend.

I have always been a fan of DIY. It s a great way to recycle your wardrobe, and add personal touch. I found this DIY flip flop and scarf idea and really love it. Do try.
With a little creativity, you can make some cute sandals out of your old flip flops. All you need are some cheap flip flops, a colorful scarf and scissors. If you want to create a pair of tribal inspired gladiator sandals, choose a printed scarf with tribal motifs. Depending on your taste, you can choose a dotted scarf, a vintage scarf, or a wide satin ribbon.
Start by cutting the scarf in half. Place it over the middle of the flip flop and bring the ends around either side of the strap. Wrap them, one at a time, around the “V” of the flip flops until you reach the end. Make sure it’s tight. When you’re done, wrap the fabric straps around your ankles. These sandals are comfortable, lightweight and original. If you’re looking for variety, try out different ways to wrap the ankle straps. Wear these lovely sandals with a maxi skirt or dress for a fresh summer look.
