Shanta's Fashion Outlook!


Hello Fashinistas.....
Today I would like to share my take on fashion n some basic rules that I follow....
My dressing style, makeup and hairstyle changes with the seasons. Talking of seasons I just love spring and summers in California, everything becomes so lively and fresh, I feel like running around the streets like a kid, jumping and dancing like no one's watching. Winters make me more mature and reserved which reflects through my dresses. I dress up elegantly, take heavy makeup n prefer dark colors(mostly red, black n royal blue). Dark colored gowns, coats and scarfs is what I adorn myself in. I usually go for Valentino, Derek Lam, Nina Ricci, McQueen, they are my favorites. Whereas in summers I mix and match colors and go for a funky getup. I take risks because my skin tone is olive but i definitely love bright colors in summers. Floral print bags, dresses, tops, shorts, rompers all in pink, orange, yellow, light green, turquoise, purple,etc is what u will spot me wearing throughout summers and spring. I take very light makeup during these seasons but sunscreen is a must.
I am a shoe lover. I have shoe collection starting from $30 to $2000.  Winter of course demands boots and I love wearing boots. Rest of the year its again colorful wedges,flip flops, pumps, sandals,etc. There is a part of me which you might find weird, I have a collection of flowery accessories. I have flower shaped earrings, finger rings, hair bands n clips, bags, necklace and even flowery structures on my shoes. I always focus on comfortableness because if you are not comfortable wearing something (no matter how fashionable it is) you will never be able to carry yourself well n end up looking shabby. Try looking graceful and put on a genuine smile, this adds a lot.
The only regime I follow religiously is cleaning my face thoroughly and moisturizing before going to bed. This is something i never forget. I do drink a lot of water n moisturize as frequently as possible.
