Alisha's Closet!

     I bring to you a look which I created and wore on my date night. The play suit had so much romantic opulence in it and the feather earrings added to beauty of the look. I think its suitable for all body types, the beaded details on the shoulder makes it suitable for an ultra feminine style....I added colored shoes to give a color to the outfit, otherwise it would have been very plain and monotonous. The hint of rosy pink color adds to the style. This is the handbag that I borrowed from my roommate. I wore the bracelet with golden hammered embellishment to give the look a hint of ethnic heritage.... Hope you love it Fashionistas....

Jewelry Is A Girl's Best Friend!!

After a lot of search and thoughts, we present you our jewelry picks of this month!! We have not chosen anything based on a particular pattern, these are random, as we think all the jewelry pieces should be different to give you a variety of choices. Moreover, we present you thoughts of our Team members, how our Golden girls pick their jewelry and how they take care of them. Our Girls will tell you how to pair your jewelry with your outfits!!

Aditi Kapoor~ 

"I like my jewelry to be classy and different. I am a fan of metallic bracelets with different shapes like snakes, dragons, thin bangles, etc. I love colored stones as well, if they are engraved it adds to the beauty!! I am golden girl, I have a lot of gold jewelry as well, I think it looks classy and professional!"


Alisha John~
"When shopping for jewelery , I don't have any particular thoughts, I can shop from a small random town shop to a posh boutique as well. I like variety in my closet. I think jewelry is one thing by which you can really make a style statement,. I don't like to flood myself with accessories but I like to wear a few pieces permanently like a bangle or  earrings as studs "


Shanta~
I am very choosy when it comes to jewelry. I love the colorful bangles and beads. Indeed, gold is one of my favorites....I like to pick traditional timeless pieces as well!!

Yeah, I am fabulous and my jewelery too!!

Hi Style Queens,
Here are the specials I chose and shopped all months. I am sure you will love my choice as much as I do. These pieces are just beautiful. I am jewelery girl, i love to accesorize, that's my style. I think the jewelery pieces should always be very cleverly picked, they should be versatile and unique, they describe you, they are your style statements. The best way to shop is always to go out with with your BFFs as you can 1)always get the discount 2) buy one piece out of the two you like and let your BFF get the other, thus you will have both of them! This is what me and Alsiha try every time we go out shopping,Here are our top picks for The Style Hymn....
