Rule number one about working with leopard prints- Don't try to add in too much color.It's always best to let the printed piece be the hero of the outfit.Adding in colored trousers or a bright dress would be wrong.That is the biggest mistake you can ever make. Keep it on the safer side. Black, white, off white, tans, naturals, stone and brown is OK. And the only color that I, personally think sits exceptionally well with leopard prints is.. RED. oh yes red.It's bold, daring and instantly transforms you into a siren. As if red lips didn't do that already, Pair it with an animal print dress and you'll know what I'm talking about. You can even add accents with red shoes, a belt or a clutch if you're not a lipstick person. Note the subtle red on the lining of my clutch.
On a completely different note, I hate this heat. I hate it. It's hot enough to fry eggs on the road.

I am going to be a total asshole and say that the only thing my eyes are fixated on in the photographs are your legs.

This is very good for an office day. Absolutely good.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know what to choose between the two now. Both. Both. Both is good.
Extra love to the toned (and tanned) legs and you own one of the most curviest bodies I have seen. :)
Thank you! :) :)
DeleteI think the dress makes you look fat. Do you?
ReplyDeleteU look lovely Ashwathy! I personally have not yet been able to accept animal prints but seeing it on you is making me consider it... but ur choise is also good and not too much into the face like how usually animal prints and women wearing it are.. u have styled it gracefully!

Thanks shreej! ;) I bet it will look really nice on you !!!
DeleteAshwathy, could you please tell me where to get good hair accessories from? Especially bobby pins. I got 2 packets from H&M and they are a disaster. My hair is thick so it doesn't even help hold it securely. I'm also looking for cute hair accessories. Could you suggest few good places?
ReplyDeleteHey!! I get all my hair accessories from monsoon accessorize. I got these 2 gold hair pins about 2 years back and they amazing . I always use them. If you want normal black bobby pins I suggest the local shops in manama. If you want fancier ones, monsoon. :)
