5 Smarter ways to dress faster in the morning: Fall 2017

Hello people!

This is my first fall post of 2017. So excited to share this post with you.

I was on the lookout for a new location for my blog pictures. So fed-up of greenery in my posts. Nine out of my ten blog posts are usually in a green backdrop- park, garden, trees, etc. This time, I literally went outside for a change, only to be disappointed with more greenery (so ironic!). But, I guess this greenery is different from the rest of my posts right? Let me know in the comments below if you seriously would like to see me in some other backdrop for a change! Also, let me know if you don't mind the greenery :)

 

I had a hard time picking this outfit. I honestly am that girl who can confidently say, 'I have enough clothes'. I actually don't need more clothes. Let me re-phrase the statement. I actually don't want to spend anymore on clothes (bloggers say Aye!). I spend like how; on kiehl's products and any healthy food. Like crazy! So clearly I am not any better off than you guys. 

So, anyway, I had a hard time pairing this Rosegal bag with anything I owned and not shown enough of here. Instagram, pinterest, and tumblr were not of much help either. In moments like these, I do these things to put myself out of misery.

So if you want to know how to decide what to wear if you feel like you don't have anything to wear, read along.

5 ways to decide an outfit, in the morning:

1) Pick a reference color- Easy for me, I had this pink bag as my reference color. To make it easy for you, wear the first color that comes to your mind which you haven't worn for 3 days. As silly as it sounds, if you're staring at your cupboard for 10 minutes, it's better to be silly. It can be a color of a bag, shoes, or a dress. If nothing works, black. Feel black, wear black, drink black?

2) Pick your first garment- Next, I pick my first garment. This step always depends upon the state of my mind, the weather, status of legs/arms and the time of the month! That's right, people. If it's super hot outside, I'll never pick a pair of jeggings or other polyester materials that would make me uncomfortable. So, it's always the pants first. If I have to decide a dress then this 'first garment' changes to 'mood'. Lace: work with lace. Don't have one? Get a lace top or a dress and then lace it. It never gets you wrong. Check out these gorgeous women dresses for a quick lace pick.

3) Pattern- If you are feeling it then let your print decide your outfit for you. I personally love stripes but you can pick any print you have. Florals are a magical contrast this time of year. I see plaid making a come-back. Just make sure to play neutral or one color, rest of the outfit.

4) The third one- If you're a jeans and t-shirt kind of a person and almost always has a problem deciding to look different with this outfit then, do this- pick a happy color for the third color. You must always wear three colors in your entire outfit (including accessories), unless you are in New York's Times Square then wear whatever the heck you may want. White tshirt with blue denims? Throw red accessories with it. My favorite red family color is burgundy though!

5) Odd pair- If nothing works, I pair odd colors or garments together. Like in these pictures, who knew peach could work well with meadow green? Just visualize an outfit in your mind and if it seems fine, you can definitely lift it with accessories. 

Clearly not green!

It's Raining Mint

Hello Readers :)

I have been in a good mood lately. Wearing a great smile everyday and braving the terrible Delhi heat. It all matches up with my personality against unmatched personalities. For those whom it was hard to understand, you will get there eventually ;)

There has been no day in my life where I haven't lived to experience small things that make me happy. Be it, going to my favorite restaurant, driving in a good weather or even looking forward to healthy breakfasts! Yes! Those around me, know that I am obsessed with; one, healthy living and two; doing what makes me happy. The second part shouldn't be read as- "doing ANYTHING to make myself happy". No I'm not a rebel or have absurd demands. Just that it takes me time to realize whether it will give me happiness in the future or not. So yea, happiness does come with a cost. But watching Cassey Ho do Pilates on her Blogilates youtube channel is one of the most exciting thing I've encountered in my life. I'm addicted to her videos, her funny personality & inspirational everything!

Speaking of videos & funny and also large part about being addicted. I can successfully say that I've become addicted to Instagram now. I've never been addicted to anything in my life but these last two years have presented me with great amount of options to choose from. One being Pilates and second being Instagram. If you go to my account (@fictitiousfashionblog), you'd find one of these two things- OOTDs and Food pics! But if you see whom/what all I follow then you'd know what addiction is. Such beautiful & positive stories fills me with love.

Here are some videos I made via boomerang for this post: (P.S: I'm having trouble uploading these boomerangs here. Doesn't come out right! Or is it fine? Let me know the right way to do it :) )

 

 

 

I'm so thankful to Newchic for introducing me to their website. I'm totally loving their shoes collection. So much so that I ordered another pair! Make sure to leave your comment below. I really enjoy reading them :)

Not the Shade of Grey

I recently updated my status to "You focus on Shades-of-Grey, I do on Tinge-of-Red"

Isn't it true? It is so easy for people to say how you don't look 'fine' as per their understanding but so difficult to say one nice thing for once. It's not entirely their fault but ours! Nine people tell us we look fab and we smile and thank them. One says, your nose looks odd and we spend the entire day in front of the mirror with self doubt and loath.

I have decided to be kind to people and pity the ones who have negative to say about me without any genuine concern. :) Just one life; decision to be happy!

Talking about one life and being happy- Look what came in the mail today? These gorgeous bow red bellies. Just what I needed this week! These babies from New Chic, also come in Black & Dutch Blue. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think of this post :*
