Celebrity Street Style: #1 Emma Stone

Hello beautiful people!

At the beginning of this year I told you guys that I was going to add another category in my blog; Fashion and starting today, I am doing just that! I planned that my fashion category would be based on “look books” on celebrities. I plan on calling it “Fashion Friday” and I am going to upload posts such as these every Friday as I think Fridays & Saturdays are the best days for us to unwind, relax and go through magazines or blogs on fashion & beauty. So I came up with my own mini look book fashion corner for you guys to enjoy while sipping on a cuppa tea or munching on pizzas! 😉

This is a brand new idea and this post is like a trial run for you guys to see what to expect on every Fashion Friday. If you do like this idea, I will continue doing posts such as these. Don’t forget to let me know your thoughts and opinions on my idea of Fashion Friday! 🙂

Now before we jump in and talk about fashion and celebrities, I want to tell you guys why I went with street style instead of red carpet looks. My reason for choosing street style is because that way we can relate to the clothing style even more and pick out our own choices and styles. Because we can hardly benefit from the red carpet looks, isn’t that correct?

Street style of celebrities also gives you a wonderful insight of what is currently trending in the industry which you can wear on a regular basis. My idea of doing a street style was mainly so that you all can get inspiration for everyday OOTD looks. When you see celebrities in their normal street style attire, you get inspired to venture out more into fashion and experiment with your looks.

Now let’s look at the street style by one of my favourite actress, Emma Stone:

A little bit about the actress:

Emma Stone is a 27 year old American actress who has appeared in several successful movies such as Gangster Squad, Crazy, Stupid Love, The Amazing Spiderman, Birdman and many more. Stone is one of the world’s highest-paid actresses and frequently appears on various listings of the most attractive celebrities. She has been nominated for an Academy Award, two British Academy Film Awards and two Golden Globe Awards, and has won two Screen Actors Guild Awards. In addition to her acting career, Stone supports various charities and causes, such as creating awareness on breast cancer.

The 5 outfits I chose for this Fashion Friday is perfect for the spring-summer season.

Let’s face it, people! Dungarees are back and they are back with a bang! Almost anything can be pared with dungarees; crop tops, shirts, tank tops… You name it! Available in fabulous colours and styles, these remain timeless! I love how she pairs these dungarees with caramel coloured bag and hair. Perfect for the spring and summer season!

Over sized coats, tees, plaid skirts paired with ankle boots and bucket bag! How stylish is this dress?? It looks so comfortable but so stylish at the same time! At first I thought she was wearing a dress underneath but I looked closer and saw that it was actually a top. These items of clothing are surely available in your closets! Don’t forget the shades! 😉

I am so obsessed with this look by Emma Stone! This is one of my favourites. Stripped tees are so fun and quirky. I love how she paired it with a milky coffee coloured shorts. I personally am tired of seeing ripped, shredded, denim shorts. These look so much more comfortable and stylish.

Just like the ones above, these shorts scream summer, people! I love how it adds a pop of colour and fun to the outfit! Baggy airy tops and summer makes me feel like a feather! The way she carried that bag though. I would carry by big sling bags on one side but after seeing this, I am gonna do that!

Lastly, my two facvourite colours; red and black paired together for a semi-formal look. I love how this outfit can be worn both formally and for fun! Let’s take a moment and fawn over the shoes people. I am fawning. Are you? I think that by adding the caramel coloured bag, she made this look even more perfect!

There you go guys! This was my first time writing a fashion piece so please be merciful! Do let me know if you liked my selection and which ones are your faves?

Also let me know if after reading this post you like the idea of having a Fashion Friday every week!! Do let me know! It would help me soooo much!

Have a fun filled weekend everyone and I’ll see you on Monday!

Join the S&S family! 🙂

Festive Haul!! :)

Durga Puja is an annual Hindu festival in South Asia that celebrates worship of the goddess Durga. It marks the victory of Durga over the evil buffalo demon Mahishasura. This glorious festival is going to be held from 19^th October till 23^rd October this year. For me (As well as for most South Asians) this is the most anticipated time of the year. I love dressing up in our traditional clothes for this festival and visit every temple and eat at the delicious food joints. If you are in India right now, you are going to witness this glorious festival at its peak. You are in for a treat!

Every year I accumulate a separate saving for my Durga Puja haul and today I am going to show you some of my favourite haul items! This festival is all about golds, reds and silvers for me so without further delay, let’s dig in!

P.S. There are no make-up items in this haul, guys!

First up, Palazzos!

I have loved wearing palazzos this summer! They are loose, comfortable and airy! They have saved me from the heat and I love their different patterns and colours. So I picked out 2 of them for the festival. I bought them from the Lifestyle store and I can’t wait to wear them!

They are cotton! (Yay! They will keep me cool!) They are maroon in colour. One of them is plain with designs at the bottom and flared a bit more than the other printed one. Sorry! It looks horrible in the picture! No worries, I am doing a look-book for my new blog where I will be wearing this and you will get to see my whole festive look.

Shoes!

Heels and flats! They have to be as glamourous as possible because your surround is going to be so bright and majestic! So I bought the black show with gold hand work online while the pencil heel is from Touristor and the silver mini wedge is from Inc. 5.

Bags!

I love these bags! I love investing in these quirky and vibrant ones with frisky prints made on cloth. Now if you are a college student on a budget, I really recommend these bags. As you already know I don’t like investing in high end bags because no matter how good the quality is, the skin always seem to peel off. (Learnt that the hard way, folks!) I love buying these because you don’t have to worry about your wallet when shopping for these.

Accessories

Now if you ever visit India, I can guarantee you will fall in love with the various accessory shops we have. What you will love even more are the prices and the styles. Here are a few examples. I will be doing a detailed post on this subject in my new blog so stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed this post! 19^th October will soon be upon us and I can’t wait for it!!

Have a wonderful day ahead!
