Hey lovelies!
Spring is my favourite time of the year. After being bundled up all winter in monochrome styles and layers of clothing, spring allows me to embrace the amazing weather with flowy silhouettes, bright colors and feminine prints.
It's the start of summer already, so I thought its the perfect time to do a recap to my favourite Spring looks of 2019. Below are three of my favourite looks of last season (that some of you might have seen already on my Instagram account) - so browse through if you are also2 on a hunt for statement wardrobe pieces this year :
Loving Them Culottes
I have these culottes in my wardrobe since sometime now but I have finally found a confidence to style them in many different ways. And I loved how it looked with this chic off-shoulder top that was actually a part of a co-ords set.
I plan to wear these culottes all around the summer, paired with different tees, as these are one of the most comfortable pants in my wardrobe.
Wrap It Up
Floral prints and spring are made for each other, and when mixed with a feminine silhouette - it makes for a perfect statement making outfit, just like this wrap-around dress from Shein. The bright and bold floral print makes the dress more chic and perfect for a romantic day out or a brunch with your BFFs.
Skirtin' Around
Skirts have always been my first love, and I never miss a chance to buy a trendy skirt and when I saw this season's hottest trend - a brown suede skirt - I knew I had to have it in my wardrobe.
While a skirt like this might look difficult to pull off at first, there are many cute ways to style this skirt all around the year.
While I paired my skirt with a striped tee, you can also pair it with a sequinned blouse or a denim shirt for a trendy look.
So, which of these outfits is your favourite? I know I have not been blogging very actively this year, but I definitely plan to start writing more often - share my latest outfits, hauls and other tips & tricks in the coming posts.

Spring Lookbook Recap | TSD Outfit Diaries
Monday, 29 April 2019
Hey lovelies!
It feels like I haven't written a blog post in ages, which is also true as last month I was in Delhi for two weeks and also visited my hometown Ludhiana. Overall, it was a busy month with a lot of catching up with family and friends, but also I managed to have a few shoots for my Summer lookbook.
And in today's post, I am covering one of my favourite outfits from the summer that features a beautiful sequinned skirt from ZARA that had been lying in my closet since a long time.
I picked this skirt last season from ZARA, but whenever I thought of wearing it - I kept it back in the closet thinking its way too loud for the day.
But as I had a spa party to host during my time in Delhi last month, I couldn't think of anything else than this skirt that's flowy, comfy yet dressy for the event.
To break the monotony of the skirt, I styled it with a boat-neck top from Cover Story and completed the look with the classic monochrome pumps from ZARA.
These statement making earrings from ZARA gave a complete party vibe to the outfit while the Aldo clutch is small but spacious to keep my phone and cards secure.

A sequinned skirt like this or even a pencil sequin dress is perfect for evening parties and events this festive season. The best part is that it can be dressed up or down in many ways like with a turtle-neck knit for a city-chic look, or with a graphic tee to add an instant edge to your outfit while making it perfect for a brunch with friends.
What's your take on this outfit and what are your picks for Festive Season dressing? Let me know in Comments below!

Hey lovelies!
I can't believe more than half an year has passed and we are in August already. I mean it just feels like yesterday when I was juggling between my 9 to 6 corporate job (that I quit back in February) and my blog. While managing two professions kept me on my toes always, there were some amazing perks as well, like getting ready to attend an event straight after work - which made me experiment a lot with my style that I made sure was apt from work to play.
And that's why when I picked these amazing palazzos recently from Cover Story, I knew they were perfect for a lot for work-to-play looks.
Do you have any other tips or tricks that have helped you nail the perfect work to play style? Share with us in Comments below!

And that's why when I picked these amazing palazzos recently from Cover Story, I knew they were perfect for a lot for work-to-play looks.
Getting this look together made me miss my corporate life days, when often a lot of my colleagues used to ask me how come I look party ready in a jiffy after a boring Monday. I used to carry a spare top or accessories along to make my outfit apt for the next event or party I was headed to after work.
I styled my navy blue palazzos with a chic H&M top that features little hearts and frilly sleeves that are totally cute and trendy. I paired my outfit with these stunning embroidered heels I picked online from Myntra recently and completed the look with my versatile Speedy 30 handbag.

I think the highlight of this outfit is definitely my pair of statement earrings from H&M that make this outfit totally ready for a fun party after work.
Here are a few tips if you also want to nail the Perfect 9 to Late look every time you have those after-work plans that leave you no time to go home and change :
- Invest in key wardrobe separates like these comfy yet stylish palazzo points that are work-appropriate but can also be styled with a dressy top for an evening party.
- Accessorize! A statement accessory like my H&M earrings can take your outfit from formal to dressy in a jiffy.
- Layer up your dress to work with a cool cardigan and blazer, and simply remove it when it's time to go party.
- Another way to jazz up your outfit for the night out with your girlfriends after work is by just changing your formal shoes to a pair of strappy heels that will instantly glam your look.

OOTD : The Perfect 9 to Late Look | Work to Play Outfit Ideas
Monday, 6 August 2018
Hey lovelies!
Haven't we all gone through days, when we pick a trendy outfit from our favourite store, and get dressed one fine day in it and step out in style, only to be pointed out by someone - hey! Don't you think this outfit doesn't suit your body type???
Well, believe me or not - not only me but a lot of my skinny friends have also faced criticism on their outfit choices and it really baffles me. Why can't we appreciate our fellow women? Why do we have to really judge their outfit choices?
So, that's why I started the Curvy Style Guide series on my blog a few years back to share certain trends and styles that usually people advise curvy divas to 'not to wear'. But I think if you pick your outfits carefully, there's no trend that you can't flaunt with confidence.
In today's post, I am sharing one such trend - front-zip skirt - that even though considered to be too risqué, is a great pick to flaunt your curves. I picked this trendy skirt from ZARA which features an exposed front zipper and a striped waistband.
The best part about this skirt is that it can be styled from work to party easily, with just the change of a top and accessories. I styled my zip-up skirt for a party look, paired with a white bare shoulder top from Forever New and ankle strap wedges from Nine West. Completing my party look beautifully was this trendy sling bag from Michael Kors - which is my go-to bag these days for parties and dinner dates.
Have a look at more pictures from the look below -
The key to styling a front-zip skirt is to pick a style which is fun but not too flashy, and don't go overboard with too many zippers. While wearing a similar skirt, make sure you are not wearing any other exposed zippers - or you will end up looking trashy.
Zippers can help contour your body, so go for a style that connects at the centre (like mine) as it will make you appear thinner.
You'll also find skirts which have zipper pull tabs on both ends, so you can wear it multiple ways by going for a custom split as per your mood or the occasion.
So, have you tried the exposed zipper trend yet? If yes, let me know how you like to style yours in Comments below.

OOTD - Zip Into Summer | Curvy Style Guide
Saturday, 21 July 2018
Hey lovelies!
No one loves facing a Monday after a great weekend, especially those who are working in a 9 to 5 job. And now that I have taken a break from my full-time job, I haven't been feeling the Monday blues any more. Which even though I rejoice, I do sometimes miss being at work and getting together my work wardrobe.
And when I saw these amazing side slit trousers at ZARA recently, I could think of so many ways I could I style these trendy pants, especially in my work wardrobe. Even if I am not working full-time, these pants are perfect for a work meeting or a semi-formal event.
So, I ended up pairing this with an oversized sequinned shirt that was one of my favourite finds from my first visit to the Colaba market in Mumbai.
Completing the look were my sleek ankle-strap heels from Mast & Harbour and a pair of statement earrings. And of course I couldn't help styling it with the Gucci pebbled leather bag which is in many ways a wardrobe staple. Not only it has a versatile design, but it is spacious enough to carry all my everyday essentials and has tall handles that are really comfortable to carry.
While I picked an oversized shirt to style these really smart side slit pants, you can pair it with a silk blouse or a tank top for a street smart look. Infact, you will find a lot of versions of these pants - with front slits, thigh-high side slits or even double-sided slits that are a breezy update to your favourite pants.
The best part of this new trend is that no matter what your personal style is, you will find a pair for every occasion, from a casual style for chilling at the pool or a structured style like mine that can take you from work to party.
What do you think about this breezy trend? Let me know in Comments below!

OOTD - Monday Blues Redefined | Curvy Style Guide
Friday, 15 June 2018
Hey everyone!
The summer is at its peak here in Mumbai, and every time I have to step out of the home, I can think of nothing but wearing a casual breezy dress that is comfortable and easy to style.
And my go-to pick this season have been denim dresses that are not only available in various flattering shapes but are also totally in trend. While I have a few denim dresses in styles like off-shoulder, halter-neck; I am totally in love with this cute skater dress from Cover Story that works as an off-duty staple and matches with literally everything from my wardrobe.
While the dress is simple and elegant, it's bell sleeves make it a total stunner. And as I am wearing my chooda (bangles) for a few months, I decided to keep the rest of the accessories minimal with just a moon-shaped pendant from Accessorize and ankle-strap wedges from Nine West.
While I wore my denim dress with a pair of wedges, you can totally rock it with a pair of sneakers or tie-up sandals for a cool summer look.
