Mini or Maxi? Why not both?

There was a time when mini dresses and skirts were everywhere, there was also a time when we all ditched our minis for our maxis. Now, lets ditch our minis and maxis for a unique combination of the two. Presenting to you, the high-low or the mullet dress!

Aren't these dresses so goddamn beautiful? I wonder why designers didn't think of it earlier. :P

Now the best part about it, it suits almost all body types! Since it's flowy, it hides bulk and since its cinched just below the bust, it gives an hourglass effect. Finally a dress that looks amazing on us curvy girls :D

Anyway, we loved this look so much that we had to replicate it. So thanks to our talented photographer and our beautiful model, we were able to do our little rendition of the mullet dress!

ABOUT MINT :

                    As you probably know, mint green has conquered over the fashion world in a big way. Celebrities are flaunting this magnificent colour, some of the biggest brands have incorporated it into their collections and also, Pantone has named it the colour to look forward to in 2012. Well, to tell you the truth, it has climbed into our brains and made us dizzy too! Mint green in my opinion, is a colour you cannot go wrong with. It suits all skin tones(yes, indian skin tone too!) and can be dressed up or down, day or night. You can wear mint in the form of tops, dresses, blazers or pants. And if you're too shy to wear mint in such an obvious way, you can wear mint accessories! say hello to mint jewelry, bags and nail polishes!  

HOW TO WEAR IT :

                           There are endless ways of incorporating mint into your outfit. Either wear mint with black so that it really stands out or go crazy with a mint and coral combination. Beware, the second option is risky and requires lots of confidence to carry off. But if your up for it, there's nothing like it. Also, gold looks really really stunning with mint, so you can wear eye-catching golden jewelry with it.

Here are two looks created by us.

About me/ESM.

                 

                             Hello you guys! I'm sure many of you are wondering what or who exactly we are, what do we do and what's the big hoopla around here? Well, I'm here to tell you just that. I'm Sruthi Warrier, founder of Everything Stylish - Mumbai (wow, it feels awesome to say that!). I'm a fashion communication student, absolutely crazy about everything related to style and fashion. Well, that's how i thought of the name 'Everything Stylish'. Now I know it's not fancy or anything, but it explains me perfectly. Also, Fashion is not my only interest. I have an amateur interest in photography, I love science(I have a curious little mind) and I love learning about new things(God bless wikipedia). Oh, and I also love reading, Sidney Sheldon is without any doubt my favorite author. And that's probably everything you need to know about me :) 

                             Now, let's move onto Everything Stylish - Mumbai which I shall refer to as ESM from now. It's basically a blog that covers everything you need to know about fashion. We're a group of students, bored of our everyday academics and we're here to keep ourselves and you occupied/entertained/hooked. We will tell you what's in, what's out, what should remain in your closet, what should you throw out, what's new in stores, what's new in beauty, celebrity style, gossip and so much more! But not just that, we will also give you workout and diet tips, random trivia about random stuff around us, book and movie reviews etc etc. So if you are not interested in fashion, you still have reasons to stick around!

                             Also, a big thank you to all my friends who are supporting me by being a part of this initiative, I cannot thank them enough! They will be writing, modeling and clicking supercool photographs for ESM. I will introduce them to you in the next few posts. I hope you guys enjoy our blog and keep visiting us.
