Pleather Weather (Part I)

Happy Saturday!! Happy Weekend!!

So how is December treating you guys? Here in Kolkata the weather is amazing at this time. Nice sweet winters. Of late i have been really liking Faux Leathers or Pleather. I have always liked how Leather clothes or accessories look upon wearing, personally I would not buy one. There are many reasons to that. The first being pure leather is very expensive, Secondly "the Cruelty" factor bothers me somewhere in my heart.
On the other hand, if we look at Pleather, there are quite a few fact that makes it more alluring. Pleather is incredibly luxurious the way it wears over time. It is lighter than real leather. Does not crease and travels really well. Moreover it is waterproof and hence it has a longer life than leather and is a much more low maintenance item than its counterpart.If we think about the versatility of the fabric, it can be used to sew bodycon dresses as well which requires precision in cut. For aesthetic purposes or functionality Faux Fur or Real Fur can also be added depending upon one's choice. I would say, unlike real leather, the technology in making pleather can be suited according to one's design and preference, making it a more versatile and design friendly fabric in a much more affordable budget.

These days I have been wearing Pleather almost every other day and hence thought of styling a Pleather Leggings in five different ways for this post. I have divided this post into two parts. In the first part there will be two Looks and in the second part the other three Looks.

Look# 1

Animal prints with Leather goes really well. Hence for the first look I thought of going the Biker Chic way with animal print and pleather.

Look# 2

This season The Batwing Cardigans are really making a hype and I am totally crushing over them. I had been on a lookout for the perfect one until I found this one in Closet Diaries, an online store here in India. I love this one coz its batwing(ofcourse) and is neutral in colour(making it more wearable with many other clothes), and it has  Faux Fur detail which makes it look super gorgeous. So, for the second look I paired my Pleather leggings with this Cardigan. Threw in the most Staple Chambray shirt worn here with some silver jewelleries and neutral accessories.

Berry Plaid

 Hello Lovelies,

Hope you guys had an awesome weekend! I went back to my hometown for the weekend with my husband. As the weather is changing now, I would suggest everyone to keep themselves warm and immune their system with loads of "vitamin C" coz my sweetheart had caught viral fever and I had caught a little infection. It's thanks to the timely antibiotics that we are fine now. I still believe that prevention is better than cure. This inspired me to take my light winter essentials out of the winter cupboard. I love this Grey top that I had bought a few years back, which has a Georgette front and a Woollen back and full sleeves. It is flowy and woollen, thus providing me the right amount of warmth that I may need in this weather in the evenings. This pair of Berry colour based Tartan/Plaid leggings is the hero of my otherwise neutral top and the blush faux leather vest. I believe a pop of colour is what it takes to put life into any outfit. Hence co-ordinated my lip colour with the berry plaid legging. As I have mentioned earlier, my love for ankle booties/boots here, Fedoras are also my favourite this season. It just adds elegance and femininity to your look. My go-to accessory to flaunt this Fall/Winter with any outfit.
Hope you liked this outfit pairing. I would love to hear from you how do you wear your plaids (in what form? a skirt, a dress, a shirt....) and how do you style it.
Thank you for stopping by..... until next time keep it stylish...keep it functional...
Lots of Love
Anie

Fall Official

Hoodies, Hot Chocolate, Jeans, Boots, Crisp Air, Cuddling and Flushed Cheeks...I am ready for Autumn.

unknown.

I can relate so much to each and every word in the quote above that I can tell u stories coming out of each them. Stories that have Nostalgia in it. I am not sure if it happens to everyone, but I can smell those falling dry leaves in the Crisp Air of Autumn. Even though I don't live in my parents house for the past twelve years now, I can still see my father gathering those dry leaves in the fall mornings that had fallen from our trees and burn them, bidding them Goodbye and thanking them for the past season. This has been the greatest significance of Fall in my life. Every season fades away in time but the memories they carry along, remain forever and becomes a part of you. 

Nevertheless, let's embrace this lovely season with lots of Warmth, Fall Trends and Fashion. I love wearing Ankle Booties and Boots. But just that the weather is still little warmer, I thought of going flowy with my clothes and hence paired my black Ankle booties with this super comfy Maxi skirt in grey colour and an over-sized relaxed-fit black satin embossed Boxy-Crop Top. To maintain that Monochrome I went for black accessories to complete the look. Deep darker colours are really appropriate in this season and hence popped a wine coloured lipstick on to rock the finished look.

As the fall evenings gets little pleasant, I like to grab my Cup of Joe with my significant other(brewed by him), sit on the terrace, cuddle up and talk our hearts out.

Thank You for stopping by and reading my little Fall Official story. Hope you liked it and wish to see you back again on this page.

Signing off for today and until the next time keep it Stylish....keep it Functional.
