Summer Time Gladness!
When the sun is out in all its glory, fierce blue skies overhead and temperature rising, well then that’s when it’s time to look cool isn’t it? ‘Coz what we wear, the fabrics, the colors, the cuts and silhouettes can actually prevent you from feeling the full blast of summer!
Dont get me wrong, I love the summers. It’s the time for fresh light salads and refreshing cocktails. And then diving into the blue waters of the sea or a swimming pool. Sigh! Is there anything better!
But we all know summers can get you really hot under the collar but have a glance at my summer looks below and you will know how I keep it cool when its hot!

Nothing is better than sheer! Here I’m wearing a white ( everybody’s fave color in summers 😊 ) long netted dress which is quite versatile. I throw it over swimwear when I’m at the beach, over shorts and tank top at a pool party or a short tube dress.
Still keeping it white with kitten heel pumps and upping the cool quotient with a long strap uber trendy tan and beige purse. Slip on a few silver bangles on the wrist, always carry a pair of cool shades and who’s afraid of the sun now?!

What better way to announce that summer has arrived than with cheery yellow florals! This colour never fails to lift up my spirits. Here I’m dressed in a wrap dress with frills that flow and cinched at the waist for that very feminine silhouette . Teamed with nude tie up sandals with colourful pompoms for that touch of whimsy!

Another must-have colour in your summer wardrobe is blue! This empire line baby blue cotton frock dress is the coolest thing for casual sunny days. To double it up as evening wear on a date or movie night, just add a pair of glamour silver heels and you are good to go!

A traditional and modern fusion style can amp up a dreary high-centigrade day of summer. A six yard circumference dress skirt in pure cotton with hand block prints from Laila’s Style Studio, Goa with a delightfully contrasting orange hem that swirls when I whirl! I can wear it off shoulder or team it up with a denim jacket with cut off sleeves for that touch of high street fashion.
