Outfit of the Day : Nautical Stripes

striped skirt outfit

I love how things bought at various time fall in place when you least expect them to be. I based this outfit around the skirt. I started with the skirt, then the blouse. The went ahead with a little color theory and added orange through my shoes. Then the bag and then the jacket. Last but not the least came the accessories. Everything was bought at various times of the year. Each piece has a little story attached to it – worn in Goa, an IMBB reader recognizing me on the street because of THIS bag, you don’t find such cute bows too often in shoes or the fabulous sale. Today they have just met each other and having a little party. πŸ˜‰

TGIF everyone. πŸ™‚

  1. Fantastic Rati… I like the complete look… the color combination is awesome
    you have rocked this one too as always

      1. You know the Mac lady in Shoppersstop in Vasant kunj told me that it was launching last thursday. I guess she was wrong :-/

  2. You look stunning here ,….stripes and polkas are so in at the moment ,….I cant wait for spring to come in..

  3. Wah…Awesome Look…Loved the whole look, Specially Skirt… I am a Sucker for Skirts, Can’t have Enough of them.. πŸ™‚ Bow Shoe is cute… And Happy weekend πŸ™‚

  4. Rati I love those shoes, I have the same color, they are so comfy na? I have to start shopping from ASOS now, courtesy u…lovely look πŸ™‚
    BTW – how is the shopping experience with ASOS? delivery times, shipping charges etc?

    1. actually aarbee, it’s quite a mixed experience. I have had no issues with the quality of the products but our indian custom officers sometimes decide to levy the exorbitant customs on the packages. and THAT sucks because it comes to around 50 percent of the entire bill value. πŸ™ It’s quite a gamble and I am just playing it. hihihih

      but i have had no issues with delivery or shipping.

        1. aarbee I have faced this sometimes but actually you cannot predict. I’d say be prepared to pay the customs and hope for the best. πŸ™‚

    The other day I tried something like this and looked like a clown… or more like Govinda… oh that reminds me… my friend used to have GOVINDA DAY in her college and everyone used to wear jhatak color combos.. colored denims and color blocking was considered quite hideous at that time.. so they competed on the basis of who wears the most hideous clothes of all πŸ˜› πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  18. HI Rati, i loved how you have combined the skirt, top and jacket, along with bag and shoes and accessories. And that different colour nail polish on ring finger is in a lot too these days.

  19. Hi Rati
    I am a regular reader of your blog, though I do not comment (*guilty*) πŸ™‚ I have learnt the basics of makeup and started falling in love with cosmetics only after coming to IMBB. All you lovely ladies at IMBB put so much effort in taking swatches and giving a detailed review of products here. You guys save the readers from bad buys and enlighten us about the new products in the market. SO a hearty THANK YOU and flying kisses to all you guys πŸ™‚

    This article reminded me, I too bumped into you in GK1 market last year and introduced myself. Dunno if you remember πŸ™‚ I loooove the color blocking thing you have done. Absolutely my type. I have got mustard yellow pumps from crocs yesterday (I was pleasantly surprised by the lovely collection they house. I used to think crocs sell only those humongous and holed footwear :-)) I am sooo excited to try them. Hope I will have the courage to click myself in a look and post someday πŸ™‚

    1. i do remember you Sharada. So glad you finally commented. πŸ™‚ Oh i never go to crocs because of the same impression i have in my mind about them. πŸ˜› I’d check now since you have approved. πŸ™‚

      btw you have a lovely blog. Do keep commenting. :))

  20. U absolutely rocked the look Rati mmmuah!! Loved the play of colors and asymmetric cuts that have come into play πŸ™‚ how Saturday going? I made besan chilla wid mango shake and loveeeeeeed πŸ˜‰ happieieie weekend…..everyone!
