Pin striped blazer – bought for an interview many moons ago. Has been languishing in my cupboard since. Brought out today for an airing.
Owl t-shirt from Primark.
Skinny jeans from Anne Taylor Loft
Accessories- Bag from Anokhi. Red and Black leather strap from a market in Barcelona.
I’ve packed away the winter wools and brought out my dresses and new trench coat!
Last weekend we had lunch with friends at Chutney Mary in Chelsea. I wore…
My new H&M dress… a lovely abstract floral print
with my Anne Taylor Loft trench coat, purchased in Boston over Christmas.
Wore my grey tights and black ballet flats and carried my very old, battered, purple Marc Jacobs bag,
AHH! Trenchcoat! I love trenches. What’s that in your neck?
Very cute! How come H&M doesn’t have this dress in Canada!! aaah!!
(Sorry, does any one know how to upload 2 pictures to the same post using Flickr?)
This winter, to save myself time and terrible sartorial mistakes, I decided to put together a uniform for my every day life. My every day life involves dropping my son at nursery, taking him swimming and to toddler groups taking driving lessons, running errands and dreaming of the day when I will be able to do something more. I find that for all this, nothing beats a comfortable pair of trousers, a long sleeved tee, a sweater/cardigan/pullover and to prevent the outfit plunging in to the depths of boredom an interesting scarf. I wear a variation of this on most days of the week.
Sweater: Navy blue from Gap with a cute button detail on the shoulders.
Grey tee from target.
Cargos from Banana Republic.
Silk scarf from Shilpi, Madras.
Sorry ET, will try and replace with a better image asap. This is all I have at the moment.
Cute bag. Small world Menaka! 
The soft cardigan(?) was a gift from a friend when I was pregnant. I layered it over a basic, long sleeved black t and then added an Elie Tahari skirt and a black belt with a gold buckle from Primark.
And yes, that is the bathroom sink behind me.
I love your hair. Do you need to use a flat iron or is that natural?
Thanks I needed to use a flat iron. Needed, because since that picture I’ve lopped off my hair 
So here’s my first styleperdiem post! I was pretty apprehensive about putting my pictures up, so I waited till I was (hopefully) well dressed enough for a first picture.
Striped azure cashmere tunic from Boden that I ordered as a birthday gift to myself!
Grey leggings and quilted black ballet flats with a gold chain detail from Primark (yes, I’m cheap like that!)
Multi-coloured silk stripe bag with silver handles from Chamiers, Madras.
Multi-strand rose quartz neck piece from Aesthetics, Madras.
Hey, can you post a bigger picture. I need a closer look at those shoes and bag.
I love this outfit. the dress is super flattering and I love all the accessories.
Love the bag, where in Madras? I am going next week let me know of any places worth taking a peek.
