                                                  ............... But first lemme take a Selfaaaaaa 

2014 has been a year of firsts for me  -- so here I am amidst some talented designers, stylists, super models, bloggers all super creative peepal at Fashion Forward Dubai 2014 - BOOM BOOM 
I was invited by the super brand http://www.maralyazarloo.com/
 Check her website for insight into the amazing world of Maral's MAYA - Her designs are a marriage between the contemporary and traditional. She puts out aesthetically fashion forward trends in outfits.
Thank you Dubai evening traffic couldn't get a place in the V.I.P. seats. 
Magnificient people all prepped and prim in delectable fashion attires - loved the OOTT , BIZZARE looking ones - they were the best dressed.


                                                                         

 A quick round at the stalls of super talented young entrepreneurs and designers - bought a few things amongst them the most innovative and most enticing work, was that of this talented girl with her DESIGNER BURQAS called Burqaabori - check them on Instagram. She makes Burqas inspired by the designs of great artists like Chanel , Alexander Mcqueen and the one am sporting is by none other than Gianni Versace --- I loved it because it was matching my sizzling shoulder pads. A picture below of a few designs she has made.  I wore a chocolate brown crepe gown designed by MSA -

 MSA which is my own brand for late comers ;)

Spruced up the glamour quotient by wearing the shoulder pads - LIONHEAD with tassles inspired by Gianni Versace. 

Shopaholic Me explains why I shop what I shop:::::::::::: I was attracted to the Lion symbol because its an ancient symbol of dominion, power and bravery. Little detail ::: The majestic king of the beasts, was used as a symbol since medieval times. We see them sprewn all across European history. Also in mythical stories they are symbols of ferocity and protection. I get  GOOD VIBES from Sir Lion hehe. 
Basically it kind of empowers you to go on and take over the task at hand.It does. It's all in the mind - I choose to manifest the representer of the most ferocious fire in space - the Sun, Lion which is a solar animal symbol. Commands authority. Makes my heart ROAR - Thats me reasoning out aloud about why I choose things I choose!! 
MANY A TIMES I HAVE NO REASON HMMMM
On the ramp saw a load of genius woven into fabrics alongwith Swarovski. 
DESIGN BASICS ARE ALWAYS INSPIRED BY NATURE , SPACE , UNIVERSE, PEOPLE !! 

                                                                                                                                                           

                                                                               

                                                                    The carpet below me !!

Some conversations after the show ended with some fashion photographers & bloggers - this one behind me was very sweet and his smile fantastic. I was loving the glitz and glamour and above all people who smie at you a GENUINE kind of smile . 

A snap when I am leaving the venue ---- yayieeee #happyness

My cousin sister happened to be in Dubai for a vacation and she accompanied me to the event yayiee - #sisterlove

                                Some jawdropping colour magic on the ramp by Michael Cinco #drool            

P.S - One gay designer while waiting in line to get in for one of the shows, complimented me for my accessory of the day - MY SHOULDER PADS !! YAYIEEE !! Just like that he was waiting with his friends and their gang was having a high time. I was enjoying their nonstop chatter. I hear this one guy saying , oh check her shoulder pads, lovely- am going to tell her & so he did."I love your shoulder pads babe ,lovely, looking good". LALALLALA Yayiee!!  So successful evening I say. Someone once said just believe a gay guy when he compliments you . First of all they never want anything from you , so - if they say you looking good you probably are looking bomb :* 
                                 
Left inspired by the genuine hardwork put in by models, artists, photograhers, event managers and everyone who makes it possible to unfold events of this magnitude. 
Hope to be a continuous force of inspiration to others through whatever work I do -writing, blogging, designing, fashion advice or simple heart to heart conversation.

                                                 

My 1st international fashion event in 2014 October - it was special indeed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                           

CHAMPAGNE & DARK CRYSTAL NIGHT ::: Review for Maithilikabre Jewellery

I have named you Queen.

There are taller than you, taller.

There are purer than you, purer.

There are lovelier than you , lovelier.

But you are the Queen.

When you go through the streets 

Noone recognises you.

Noone recognises your crystal crown, noone looks at the carpet of red gold,

As you pass,

the nonexistent carpet.

AND WHEN YOU APPEAR ALL THE RIVERS SOUND IN MY BODY, BELLS SHAKE THE SKY , 

AND A HYMN FILLS THE WORLD.

Only you and I, Only You & I my love , 

CAN LISTEN TO IT.

I hear PABLO NERUDA saying these words to me when I dress up like this & wear Vintage jewellery like that. 

>>>>SMILES LIKE A HOPELESS ROMANTIC <<<< 

Transcending into another ERA
The Champagne chain earrings encapsulated by tiny black crystals -- well they kind of own you. I got this customised at www.maithilikabre.com they are kind enough to customise to cater to your individual taste in terms of colours. I live for colours. Champagne hues elevate my mood and make me feel elegant , make me carry my head a bit high because once you wear these you will only feel like a princess. Crystals and other such sparkly things are some of my cravings. This will never go out of fashion and I am planning to wear it for a long long time. Can team with a cocktail saree or maxi dress or whenever you want to look Vintage chic. I am wearing a crop top -- Vintage look teamed with a beautiful mother of all BLUE coloured full length skirt H&M. (Blue is my favourite colour ever).
As seen in Femina ::: worn by Bollystar Anoushka Sharma

I can't wait to show off the extravagance www.thetrunklabel.com has brought to my accessories collection. A collection of a few moments clicked with that powerful piece of jewellery! It's detailed with gold and diamontes. It just makes one trippy. That night I teamed it with a hot pink Peplum top, some long tassle earrings,black wet look jeggings and some red hot blocks to suit my red nails.

Come with me,  let's fly .
