Fashion Tips

Check out these fashion tips from Delhi based designer Arti Soni (who has also done part of Anamika's Indian wardrobe). Maybe there is something over here that you can work upon and adapt to yourself.

The materials that are really happening nowadays are shneel and crepe. You can pick up a lot of shneel stuff in most boutiques and even at places like Sarojini and Janpath. However be warned that these can look really awkward on you, if you don't know how to carry them.

Make up that goes really well with this is the shimmer look. Chuck your matte finish for the time being and go wild with the shine. On an evening out, use shimmer or glitter to highlight your features. A really cool look is shimmer eyes with mascara and frosted lips. Buy a few good lip liners since you'll need them to accentuate the lips or you'll end up with a pale and ghostly appearance.

Eveningwear also includes a lot of sequins and sheer stuff. Go out and play the wicked vamp to the hilt. Steel grey is a really happening colour.

Highlighting is out but hair mascaras are really in. Go for the wild shades. Use your creativity, there's a lot you can do with these.

In Indian wear, Chinese collar shirts with long slits are really in. These look great with churidars as well as straight pants.

Try short kameez with Patiala Salwars, for that glamorous look of yesteryears.

And a final word of advice, don't wear something just because it's in. Try it out first to see if it goes well with who you are.
