What I Wore on A Rainy Saturday: OOTD

Hi Guys!

Last Saturday the Rain Gods finally decided to shower (pun intended) their blessings on us Delhi folks, and the beautiful weather made it a perfect day for just venturing out and about town.

So as I went about my Saturday, I decided to rock my favourite (and only) pair of floral pants (also worn here). They haven’t been out much lately, but hey, I love them just as much as I did when I’d bought them. I teamed-up the pants with a ruffled pale blue top. Since it was raining and there were little puddles everywhere, I went easy on the footwear with a pair of studded berry flats. And the bag I carried was a purple Marks & Spencer one (hardly visible in the photo).

Floral Pants: Ferre

Blue Top: SN

Bag: Marks & Spencer

I quite liked the outfit, primarily because of the bright colours. I’d love to know how you dress-up on a rainy day?

One Piece Many Ways – Floral Pants

It’s been a while since I have done a “One Piece Many Ways” post, so I thought today I will write about how you can wear floral pants multiple ways.

Floral Pants, Black Tee and Hot Pink Scarf: Weekend Outfit

If you follow me on Instagram, you would know that I wore this outfit on Saturday. J I think I’ve spoken enough about my cold and cough, so I’ll just skip that part and get on to Saturday’s outfit. I had to go shopping for some household stuff, so I needed to wear something comfy. And if you know me, you’d know that I love wearing bright colours- so my choice of clothes was comfy and colourful- and what better way to incorporate colour than a pair of floral pants.

Since the floral pants are a riot of colours, I paired them up with a simple black tee. And to make the outfit look a little coordinated, I added a hot-pink scarf to the mix. Since shopping involves a lot of walking, I wore my studded black flats which complemented the black tee. And to stuff all the good things that I bought that day, I carried my tan bag. I was happy with this bright and peppy outfit. J

Floral Pants and Denim Shirt: Weekend Outfit

I have already worn these floral pants twice (first I paired them with a white top as can be seen here; second time I teamed them up with a magenta top- will do a post on that soon). And last Sunday I wore them for the third time. I teamed them up with a dark blue denim shirt. The shirt has long sleeves so I folded them (I prefer wearing this shirt with the sleeve folded up). I added berry coloured shoes to the mix and carried my tan bag. This was my Sunday outfit and might I add that I loved it! 

Also, these floral pants are turning out to be more versatile than I had initially thought them to be. So all of you thinking of sporting this trend, I say go for it! :) 

Floral Pants: Post coming up soon

Denim Shirt: Almost 12 years old (can't recall the brand)

New Floral Pants and White Top- Weekend Outfit

I’m not really a big follower of trends. I mean I do like to wear clothes that are on trend, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to incorporate any and every current trend. Basically, I like to wear clothes that look good on me and flatter my body-type. Who cares if they are from the 80’s! That being said, I do shop for clothes which are ‘in’ at the moment- read maxi, colour-blocked items, coloured pants etc.

One such trend of which I wasn’t a big fan, and had shied away from sporting was ‘floral pants’. Floral pants have been around for some time and can be seen everywhere- from the ramps to the streets. However, I wasn’t too keen on spending around Rs.3,000/- (USD55) for a piece of clothing that I wasn’t even sure would look good on me. Anyhow, as fate would have it, while out on my recent flea-market trip (post coming up soon), I saw the most beautiful pair of floral pants. I mean really- the colours were vibrant and the print too pretty. And they were in my size (I mean they were a size up but the guy said flea market stuff often runs a size bigger than the standard branded ones. Plus by looking at a pair of pants you can get a fair idea whether they’ll fit you!). So without blinking an eyelid, I grabbed the pair of floral beauties. I mean even if they weren’t my size it wouldn’t have hurt my pocket right! Next thing I know, I was making outfit combinations in my head- and the first and the most obvious one was to pair it with a white top.

So last Saturday I teamed up my new floral pants with a basic white top. The top has full-sleeves which I folded to half (like it better folded-up). For footwear I wore my orange peep-toes which made the orange in the pants pop. And I added an orange stone necklace just to complete the look. Since the pants are a riot of colours, the bag I carried was my tan one. I personally loved the outfit and I can’t wait to wear the floral pants again (and again…)!
