Fashion Featured: Meet the Scholars

 Meet the two scholars from Shillong. When they first told me that they were Anthropology scholars from the university of Shillong studying to get there PHD , all i could think of was Anthropology the brand. The dumb me , then google added some light on it.Bewildered i was . This is one of the classic examples of nerds meet fashion ,fashion meet the geeks oh no but they already know each other and how well. This is not it, they also have there very own fashion blog .There style is a mix of west meet the east or more like we will show you how its done.Do take a look at there blog A bit of out life.

Silver jewelery is her obsession

I still cannot believe i came back with empty bags from Delhi , sigh!!

And the Romper obsession continues

Love it when i discover one of these little known shops which have hordes and hordes of awesome stuff ,also as an icing on the cake it turned out to be so affordable. While i love discovering shops like these, at the same time i am worried if the scene here will be one similar to the movie "Confessions of a Shopoholic"  .But could this buy be resisted ?

While on a road trip i try not to wear any jewelery or carry anything expensive ,especially when its just a bunch of girls taking the trip.Now we wouldn't wanna get mugged would we :-)

Skirt Dress

Bought this skirt about 4 years ago .This has a very Goan gypsy feeling which means unless i take a trip to Goa i wont be able to wear it. So decided to give the skirt a little makeover! A little nip here and a little tuck there transformed the skirt to  a tube dress which is so great for summers :))

Jodhpurs from Jodhpur

While on a holiday i love shopping for local specialities. While in Jodhpur went hunting for the now famous Jodhpur trousers( I know every single shop in the Clock Tower market ) .Initially the local merchants were really surprised why a girl wanted to buy men's trousers(Its predominantly worn by men).Hence all the designs i saw were designed for men.Just when i was about give up my search i ran into a local designer (Also a student of NIFT he claimed) . Finally i thought my hunt would be fruitful .However the design i found was a mere cousin of the originals, well that did not stop me from buying it because i loved it anyways and its so apt to save yourself from the torture of jeans during summer.
