Deepavali Day Three. I kid you not when I said the party doesn’t stop 😉 This time around, the party was at my place.

This is what I wore;PhotoGrid_1383582769966Top, necklace, earrings and bangles: Bazaar at Bukit Jalil.
Mermaid leggings: Fashion Forward.

Since it was in my house and I could foresee a lot of running around, I wore a white cotton kurti top with some embroidery designs in white as well to match my mermaid leggings. Mixing my traditional top with my modern leggings was a huge hit!

Everyone needs a white kurti top, it’s the easiest thing to mix and match for every occasion!;

PhotoGrid_1383583922185These huge silver hoop jhimki earrings were purchased 3 years ago, and I got them for RM10 a pair (I have the same ones in gold as well :3). Since my outfit was very bare, I had to have some accessories that stood out, and these earrings did the trick;
PhotoGrid_1383585596593I got this gorgeous paisley mango printed necklace for an absolute steal! It was Rm35, and worth every cent! I love how traditional it looks but can be worn on a daily as well. The details on it are really intricate & classy;
PhotoGrid_1383583871302Just to add some bling and colour to my otherwise plain outfit, I wore chunky bangles in shades of blue and green with rhinestones on it for some glam. I also added a big mother of pearl designed ring;

PhotoGrid_1383584075974I did a shimmery emerald green, turquoise and bronze mixed smokey eye using my Miss Rose palette (tutorial on this soon!) & played it down with nude lipstick from Stage.

My teardrop pottu was from Urban Aura Signature. I am thrilled I got the entire set of pottus from here as I’ve been only wearing those throughout Deepavali;

Deepavali day two. With my family, the party never stops and I foresee an entire week of functions *yay!!!*

My second Deepavali outfit;PhotoGrid_1383494130834Top, pants & shoes: Bazaar at Bukit Jalil.
Bangles: Mix & match, plain ones from Brickfields, & the thread ones (in pink) from Varnam Gallery.
Clutch: Gift
Ring: Gift from India.

I opted for really, really bright colours this time around, with a combination of hot pink, purple & turquoise. I call this combo, the Barbie colours.

Both my top & pants were made from a really soft cotton lycra material. I love how vibrant the colours were and how they complimented each other perfectly;
PhotoGrid_1383485045105My bangles were a mix and match from the bangles I’ve collected throughout the years. I mixed plain metal bangles with threaded ones to give it a different look. My clutch was plain turquoise, to add a pop of blue to my outfit;
PhotoGrid_1383498078410The jhimki earrings were handmade by yours truly to match the outfit 🙂PhotoGrid_1383494394115This Ganesha ring, eventhough a small piece of accessory was the highlight due to how unique it was. It looks almost like a statue, with the 2D effect it has. My favourite god, Ganesha the Hindu god of intelligence and success;
PhotoGrid_1383494568686My shoes, were this super comfy and funky shoes I got for RM25 at the Bukit Jalil bazaar. It’s hand embroided, so the details on it are very intricate;

& for my make up of the night, I kept it at a minimal due to the vibrant colours I was already wearing. I did however, do winged cat eyeliner to give it an old Tamil movie actress look 😉 Exaggerative eyeliner was in back in the days 🙂

My diamond shaped pottu was from Urban Aura Signature.

This is my usual outfit of the day, every day!
The hobo-I-don’t-care-what-I-look-like-because-I’ll-be-in-the-office-all-day look :3

& also, I’m down with the fever so being all stylo isn’t the top of my priority, comfort is 🙂
IMG_20131018_154103Croptop: Supplier
Harem Pants: Bali
Rings : H&M
Flip-flops: Banana Peel
'Seriously, I needed to show off just how cute my crop top is! I love how it kinda looks like a dreamcatcher, with it’s colourful Mandala design and feathers around it.

Also here’s a tip; I only wear crop tops with my high-waisted bottoms to avoid showing too much skin. & it also helps cover the food belly :3

At Kumar vs Malaysia Live, organised by Define International. 
As it was held at Berjaya Times Square hotel, I opted for a glam, simple look.

Here’s my #ootn (outfit of the night);
PhotoGrid_1382004725316Dress: Asean Avenue, Sunway Pyramid.
Necklace: Forever 21
Clutch: H&M
Ring: Bazaar find
PhotoGrid_1382004802962

I decided on this dress because it was both simple and classy. I love ‘good girl’ length which is below the knees and the high neckline, but the oh-so-subtle and sexy peekaboo at the back. Also, that shade of electric blue against dark skin is one of my favourites. The material of the dress is flowy and fun!
PhotoGrid_1382004918106For accessories, I went with a full pearl choker necklace (I got at such a steal!) entangled with a gold-bronze chain base. To keep with the somewhat mermaid theme, I added a little gold starfish ring. For a bag, I used my hologram mermaid clutch. I love how the colours change when the light hits!
PhotoGrid_1382004863604As for make up, I decided on a earthy palette. Minimal eyeshadow and dramatic cat eyeliner for some old skool Hollywood glam. Finished off by nude lipsticks (from Stage) and a little bit of bronzer.
