The Cool Couple

Its not very often that we come across a couple as cool and quirky as this one we spotted recently. She in her negligee-style dress and he with his matching horse prints separates just raised our fashion and quirk quotient to a new high!

The Cool Couple

The matching-separates trend, a move from the short suit that took over the runways and won its acceptance as Formal wear has been wowing the bold, aware and confident men. It could be a matching pair of Tee and shorts, a shirt and shorts, as long as you are willing to have fun with it and like a bit of quirk in your style!

The Cool Couple

He wears this white shirt with conversational horse print in black, buttoned-up and sleeves rolled-up paired with shorts to match with rolled -up hems as well. The vibrant tropical print espadrilles bring in a very Luxe resort feel to the whole look. His SWAG metal plate cap adds to the luxury feel.

She continues the Luxe resort feel with an amazing pair of printed sneakers to go with outfit. Printed and colorful sneakers and espadrilles are our favorite footwear to don while having fun with your outfits, for him and her.

The Cool Couple

We love her black n white box clutch with a photo-printed top and a chain sling, even the personalized tasselled dangler!

The Cool Couple

Her blunt bangs hair frames her beautiful face and is a hairstyle that spells Edgy!

The Cool Couple

And the Edgy continues with a grey melange Tee dress paired with a negligee-style embroidered net dress in black that a genius pairing! We love the whole sheer-opaque play that she creates.

What do you think about this couple's style?.......we adore!

Street Style Diaries- Shruti Bheda

Modern Legacy 

Let's start by saying we are your Fans Shruti Bheda! 

Totally mesmerized and captivated by your personality that encapsulates the concept of modernity without having to let go of the past. Taking the traces from our human heritage, our native roots, the ancestral  legacy along and make it a part of your modern being brings out a unique individual, like no other. A time traveller who has been there, THEN and is here, NOW.

Shruti Bheda

We don't know if its the Native American braided hairstyle, the Indian tribal nose-pins on both the sides-seen on the Chattisgarhi tribal women, the minimal pastel colour blocked top (we love the colours!) and skirt, the silver metal-plate choker, the cross body chain jewellery that Beyonce wears a lot!, the backpack, or the heavy duty traveller boots, that give Shruti the power that she exudes merely by her presence.

Shruti Bheda

It could also be the mysterious eye and lip make-up or the absence of it (you figure!) or simply her deep drawing gaze......Shruti is an accessories designer.

Street Style Diaries - Marv D'Souza

Refined Proportions

When men show the confidence while choosing their attire and are ready to play with proportions fashion becomes fun. Marv D'Souza shows us his play of proportions with a long shirt and very interesting draped pair of pants.

Marv D'Souza

Marv wears this longish short sleeves shirt, buttoned-up, in washed out denim with muted ethnic aztec chest print and redefined oversize proportions with the length, the pocket as well as the sleeves that is worn rolled up. He pairs it with this black and white checkered pattern pair of pants that looks as comfortable as the statement it makes. It sits somewhere between a pair of trousers and our very own dhoti using pleating and ruching .

Marv D'Souza

A washed out pair of casual shoes in pastel orange adds a pop of color to the attire of this quirky casual look. Marv is a stylist with Miss Malini.

Street Style Diaries - Longrei

Infused Native

Manipur is a land of rich crafts and deeply entrenched tradition of music, dance, and a heightened sense of aesthetic awareness that touches every sphere of a Manipuri's life. The pottery, the reed and bamboo crafts, the jewelry all have the power to mesmerize.

Meeting Longrei was an affirmation to the unique artisan sensibilities that he brings to his accessories that he crafts out of materials native to him and to Manipur.

Longrei

Longrei shows his preference for black by dressing on a monochromatic color scheme with his short sleeve henleys, a pair of leather+knit paneled joggers and heavy duty Doc Martin ankle length boots. It absolutely works as his accessories shine through!

Longrei

His unique undercut with a long locks at the back hairstyle is held by this amazing pair of hair-pins fashioned with leather, beads and feathers. It brings such unique tribal infused aesthetics to these relevant and modern pieces. We love the dream-catcher neck piece that adorns his neck!

Longrei

His mirrored aviators, bracelets, studded biking glove and his looped in accessories add a rawness to this amazingly crafted and thought about masculine BIKER look. Longrei shows a perfect way to all the men who love accessories, but are afraid. What we love the most of infusion of the native with the modern.
