WIW 1: Last of the Bangalore Days

So the weather today was pretty much atrociously hot. So what better color to wear than black, right?
Sigh.

Either way. Couple weeks ago, I was wandering around Comm Street trying to find a cropped sweater to wear. And I found this beauty for 250 INR. Like, what. I love the knit. It's heavy, but not chunky, you know? Again, a lovely addition to the new basic capsule wardrobe that I'm building up.
I layered it with another crochet edged crop top so I wouldn't have to wear a bandeau bra (too damn tight and sticky for weather like this. Wanted it to be all easy breezy in that general area.)

Bag from New Look, you can read the post here.

Also enjoying the fact that I can ponytail my hair again after two damn years.

Happy Thursday!

Street Finds: The White Edition

Once in a while I succumb to the temptation that is Commercial Street. You find some really good export reject stock and I got pretty lucky.
I've been on the hunt for white pieces for my wardrobe for a while now. And these two hit the spot.
I'm over the whole sheer-chiffon-buttondown craze that hit the streets a few seasons ago and I'm looking for more interesting textures. The white blouse had permanent pleat crepe and lace applique and the dress was lace and tulle (the ballerina in me was very excited).

Priced (I kid you not) at 200 INR for the white sleeveless blouse and 400 INR for the dress - I think you all can fully appreciate why I love nosing out export reject stock. They're good quality and have the tiniest defects (trust me, Zara has defected pieces in-store at times), and I couldn't find anything wrong with either of these pieces. Thank you to Nisha for helping me with these shots. And strategically blurring out the garbage in the background :P

                        

Have a great Sunday!
