Sunset vibe

A quick run to the supermarket for some local beer for baby J and this is what we wore.

Paired my VB jeans and top from Ali Express (balance!) with a vintage shawl from New Delhi, Dior Tribal earring and customised Scarosso ballet flats. Unfortunately, Scarosso don’t offer customisations via their website anymore (either that or my browser is missing weird a plugin) but their shoes are still really great, but unfortunately all leather.

Sunshine.

It was 18 degrees in Hamburg recently, and it was momentous, to say the least.

My best friend is visiting me from Mumbai and we decided to go out and do what we love doing best. Style and art direct each other ❤

Where my sunnies at?

Sunglasses hunting at Viu Eppendorf – they have the nicest, friendliest people working there!

They launched their new range (Ensoie x Viu) of sunglasses literally a day after I ordered my Patricia Schmid x Viu’s The Muse! Aah. Pain. The Rose from the new collection is next. I adore their shop, their team members, their designs and clearly keep going back because of a crush situation. #noshameinmygame

Icecream at Eis Eis Baby at Alsterdorfer Strasse. Their dairy-free strawberry ice cream is only like, the best in the city. No big deal.

More days like this to come with Summer hurtling towards us. I am excited, can you tell?

I spent a couple of days in Venice some time back and stepped out of the city with a serious case of mal de debarquement which is also highest in women in their 40’s but… anyhow. That happened. Venice is stunning. Almost untouchable and “how could people possibly live their go to work, walk to dog life here” kind of way because every thing is so damn beautiful.

I’d laid off the sneakers throughout the trip because this heaven deserves high heels dammit! And God knows beautiful shoes make the best gifts, so I ignored the weak ankle for four days and lived a little.

For Venice.

My favourite look from from my city escapades was this forever 21 top paired with a Henry Holland skirt (it’s actually part of a suit, but more on that later) and shoes from Odel, Colombo. Very Dolce & Gabbana Ss16, but at 1/12th the cost. BOOM.

Can’t link to the products unfortunately since they’re all from last years SS and FW collections. All current collections/ available products will be linked!

Look how stoked with that complimentary wine!

You will also see one of the pictures mention Sunday Rileys Power Couple set and the havoc it wreaked on my skin. I love products and I really really love skincare. And I only buy them when they’re cruelty free – Sunday Riley seemed to have had hit the perfection trifecta, except my skin turned into a monster after a weeks use.

I will discuss the Sunday Riley debacle in one of the future posts!

&otherstories glasses + my skin reacting to the Sunday Riley Power Couple duo. It got a lot worse!
