Accessorize's Autumn/Winter Campaign With Tamsin Egerton

Hi my lovelies!!! 

As you all know, I love my accessories and what better store for them than Accessorize? I absolutely love the current campaign of Accessorize which includes winged handheld totes, slouchy oversized clutches and chic colour-blocked hobos – and exaggerated heirloom style jewellery adorning the face of the 2013 autumn/winter campaign - Tamsin Egerton. Tamsin is an English actress and model, rumoured to be dating Josh Hartnett (sigh!). She is best known for her roles as Chelsea Parker in the 2007 film St Trinian’s, Holly Goodfellow in Keeping Mum, and Guinevere in the 2011 TV series Camelot, and most recently she played Fiona Richmond in the film ‘The Look of Love’. The campaign, shot by Ben Weller who in his kitty, has shot for Vogue around the world, and styled by Naomi Miller, former Harper Bazaar’s stylist has new look studio shots for the for the brand, all styled with a clean, sharp edge. A London-girl-about-town feel is seen with Egerton carrying the season’s most coveted bags.

 The campaign moves on to reach out to the brand’s more grown-up styling for October, with Egerton showcasing fashion-forward day clutches and look-at-me jewels. November sees the actress transformed into a street-savvy stylista with on-trend boyfriend beanies and statement knitted scarves.  

December delivers the brand’s Christmas shots, with Egerton embracing the famous glitzy side of Accessorize; think endlessly sparkling gemstones and heavily embellished clutches; picture perfect for the up and coming party season.  In fact Tamsin is quite experimental with her style and says that she gets bored doing the same look over and over again. Her style is flouncy, girly one moment and masculine and structured the next. (Just like me, tee hee). I can’t wait to try her fave pieces from the collection which are the gold & black bracelets (that I’d love to add to my usual stack on my hand) the gold rings as you could mix and match as many or a little as you like to create different looks. The rings actually work really well together with the bracelets.









The coming party season means lots of new looks to try and lots of accessories to flaunt. Accessorize’s new campaign has definitely caught my eye and would probably be my one-stop-shop for the party season’s jewelry shopping. Has it made it to yours yet?

#OOTD - Diwali Dressing

Hello my lovelies,
         I am not much of an ethnic dresser and I must admit I barely have any Indian clothes. But theres something about Diwali that makes me wanna dress up in all my Indian finery!  All the Indian outfits I own are fit for weddings and big occasions and are definitely a tad bit too much for my Diwali outings. Every Diwali I  go to 3 places, first to my boyfriends house to wish him and his mum and then for my daddy's office pooja and finally to my friend Nandini's Diwali party.

        Each year I have to come up with two outfits, one for the day and one for the night .  For the day I don't like to wear something heavy so its usually an indo-western  sort of an outfit or a simple kurti with jeans. And for the night I dress up for the party !!! Now this is a challenge every year coz I try and wear something different and as I said I don't have too many Indian outfits in my wardrobe . So heres what I wore this Diwali...

For the day I wore a black and gold Indian print skirt with a Forever 21 vest
& accessorised with my Valliyan Necklace and bangles from the Kalaghoda festival

I just wore lipstick during the day and opted for a nice clean no make up look.

For the night I wore this lovely Malini Ramani Dress with a sequinned gold clutch from
Fashionalized, my green Lisa Jackal wedges  and the same bangles.

Happy Diwali from Vaibhav & me !!!
