Sassy in a Corset & Skirt - The Fusion Muse 2


Hey my lovely chiclets!

As many of you know I created a fusion look last month which you all appreciated (click here to read it).  I was so overwhelmed with the positive feedbacks and the praise showered, that it motivated me to create a second fusion look, dedicated to the wedding season. I am equally excited to share it since its very close to my heart and is by far my best look. So here it is!

Wedding season has knocked our doors again! Reflecting the atmosphere of traditions, cheer and enjoyment, the dazzling decorations, plethora of national and international cuisines, exceptional bride and groom wear, trendy and vibrant ethnic dresses, Indian weddings ooze out the rich, regal and grandeur feels.


For a fashion lover, weddings are a great medium to experiment, examine and showcase their best wardrobe sense. Being an amalgamation of tradition and glamour, Indian wedding outfits are designed to be extremely beautiful and attractive, complimenting the wedding atmosphere.

What is exciting about the current wedding wear trend is the mix and match of Indian and western fashion sensibility. Combining the elements of both East and West, one can implement western styling in their traditional outfits. It’s also a great way to experiment, if you run short of a wedding dress and have an immediate function to attend. What I created for the second part of the fusion series is assembling different western elements with a twist of ethnicity for last minute outfit fix ups.


Strapless corsets and crop tops that work as a blouse and maxi skirts in varied flairs – welcome the new multi-tasking fashion trend. Giving the traditional Indian Lehenga - Choli a twist, I paired a bling corset tube top from Koovs with a floor length maxi skirt in gunmetal color for a modern and sassy look. Having bought this corset top over a year ago, I simply love its versatility. It can be teamed up with a Saree, Skirt, Lehenga, Dhoti or even a Sharara. What sets it apart is the blue stone work which looks vibrant and totally stands out.  







To give it a more Indian feel, I opted for a Bindi and Nath. This was the first time I sported these two iconic Indian beauty elements in my life. I might confess that the combo of Corset- Skirt and Bindi – Nath incepted in my mind, before I was a blogger and I found it to be one bomb look. It exudes out a true fusion and can make you grab eyeballs at any occasion you choose to flaunt it.


The whole trend of corsets as a part of Indian wear was started by Bollywood. Sophie Choudhary walked for Mandira Wirk’s collection in gold Corset Lehenga with Dupatta in one of Indian Bridal Fashion Weeks.  The corset nicely frames the feminine torso and adds a flattering silhouette when paired with flowing bottoms like Lehenga or Skirts. You can add a Dupatta or Stole for a more modest look. 

Since my corset had heavy work, I went for a maxi skirt with subtle sheen. After the storm of heavily bouncy skirts, we are witnessing the crop flairs returning back in trends (though they never disappeared, just took a backseat). The Gunmetal color goes great with all color palettes and thus makes it a wise choice for an Indian occasion. Yet again, my both the pieces are versatile enough to go with variety of garments and cuts.



Coming to the Makeup, I collaborated again with the talented MUA, Sheenu Arora, and as evident through the stills, she has given her best. Giving equally bold and vibrant blue black eyes, she gave me an otherwise subtle makeup with nude lips and light contouring.  Eyes complimented my attire and enhanced the overall beauty.




Jewellery
To showcase a variety of looks, I paired three different kinds of jewellery for you all to take inspiration from. The pieces are from the SAIRAAH Collection.

Look 1: Dainty Nath and Bracelet for a clean look.




Look 2: Going gypsy with oxidized Jewellery for the much trending ‘Banjaran’ look. A statement necklace, nose pin and a disc ring. Corset and tube tops give a great neckline for a statement necklace.




Look 3: Oxidized Silver earrings with an oxidized disc ring



So here was my take on the wedding attires for the second part of my fusion series. I would love to hear your feed backs and thoughts over it as this look is personally very close to my heart.

Make Up For Ever HD Foundation Review

Hey all, It’s a lovely day and I am up with yet another makeup product review. This time it’s the Make Up For Ever (MUFE) HD High Definition Foundation. MUFE HD Foundation promises high definition coverage, with a natural makeup finish, making you look flawless. Its an oil-free, medium to full coverage liquid foundation that looks invisible on-screen and in real life. Foundation is a key in pulling everything together for a flawless makeup application. Before I was a beauty blogger – before I even knew there was such a thing as beauty blogger, I was a normal girl with tremendous love for makeup. Over the years, I have tried more than my share of foundations from drugstore to high-end to professional. While I tossed out many, some made way to my beauty kit. That being said, I always had certain issues with all of them, some being cakey, others being dry or oxidizing. I wanted a foundation that provided me medium to full coverage but feels light on skin and does not o
