I am definitely not the only person on this planet to feel that 2019 has been a taxing year, filled with growing pains that, in hindsight, I am grateful for. Here are my takeaways from this year:<br />
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Happiness is my ultimate goal and I am responsible for it.<br /></li>
<li>If I want it, I can create it- it’s as simple as that.<br /></li>
<li>I don’t learn from achieving a goal, I learn from the process involved in achieving that goal i.e. it’s the process that matters<br /></li>
<li>I am a self-aware and confident individual. I am well aware of my strengths and I am mindful of my weaknesses. My weaknesses are a reminder that I am not perfect. And that I am a perpetual work in progress.<br />Self-awareness makes me realize that neither am I better than anyone, nor is anyone better than me.<br /></li>
<li>I am committed to learning and building my mind. My curiosity is my strength.<br /></li>
<li>I know what I want and I am consistently working towards it. However, at the same time, I give into the uncertainty as it is a part of life. When I give into the uncertainty, I give in because I understand that my future/the sum of my present, is out of my control. That said, what I have is the present moment. This brings me back to point number 4. I should focus on the process (which is in the present) and not on the result (which is in the future and which is out of my control).<br /></li>
<li>Procrastination is my worst enemy even though I find myself here quite often. Consistency is my best friend. What I am consistent with will grow, what I am not consistent with, in simple words, will stagnate.<br /></li>
<li>Picking up a spiritual practice was the best thing that I did in 2019. First and foremost, it made me value myself. In addition to this, it gave me perspective, it gave me understanding and it gave me self-awareness. It made me realize that my external environment is a reflection of my internal environment. I will attract whatever and however I feel and am on the inside. This thought pushed me to commit myself to become better, if not the best, personally and professionally.<br /></li>
<li>I realized that eternal friendships are built on mutual effort. Those who reciprocate should be cherished. Those who don’t reciprocate should be politely kept out of my life. I devote my time to those who value it and vice versa.<br /></li>
<li>Last but not the least, patience is key, patience is a virtue. I understood that everything takes its own sweet time and impatience will not make its entrance into my life quicker. “The process, Aishwarya! Focus”.</li>
</ol>
<br />
I will keep adding to this, until the year ends. What were your takeaways from 2019? I'd love to know. Let's talk!</div>

It’s been two years since I’ve updated this space, with reason. For the longest time, I believed that I was generating content when in reality this was just my venting ground. If you read through my previous posts, you’d understand what I mean. A bajillion podcasts, a multiple confrontations in my professional life (a mere two year stint, if I may mention) and consistent introspection has led me to only one question- am I adding value to this space?<br /><br />This question has been able to ground me and at the same time, put things into perspective. It has been able to help me filter out things, thoughts and people successfully.<br /><br />Oftentimes, I retreat into my zone to analyze the path that I’m trying to carve out for myself and whether my approach is working for me or not. The reality is, I’m constantly learning and due to this my approach is constantly changing. Every time I sit to talk to someone a few years older than me, all I am told is, learn as much as you can in the first leg of your life- it’ll help you in the second leg of your life.<br /><br />I’m reminded of the rich father in the book, Rich Dad Poor Dad. The rich father advises the protagonist to focus on consistent horizontal growth instead of vertical growth, especially in the beginning of his career. Vertical growth may give him a position and more money (for a while) but horizontal growth would be his biggest teacher.<br /><br />I’m also reminded of Palmer Luckey (The founder of Oculus) who was ready to pick up an unpaid internship despite living in a trailer just so he could work on his prototype with his idol. I sit to wonder if this’ll ever become the norm.<br /><br />My best friend has been working her butt off to build her business. She had been extremely stressed out because their entire plan has changed at least thrice in the past one year. “The third plan is completely opposite of the second plan,'' she exclaimed. I sit to draw parallels between what she said and my entire life as I try to swallow the tiny piece of plastic stuck in my throat, out of nervousness (it broke away from my fork and I ate it with a bite of my waffles and now my throat hurts).<br /><br />Are you still with me? My plan has changed a myriad of times, mostly out of fear. I had this innate desire to work in content but eventually, wussed out because I figured that it wasn’t going to make me money. Hence, I decided to go with marketing. Writing has been my side bitch ever since- I resort to it for emotional comfort, mental peace and stability, occasionally. Obviously, I couldn’t commit because I’m scared as fuck.<br /><br />Self-awareness and SWOT analysis make me question my decision but PTSD due to the Sharmaji Ka Beta Syndrome that the Indian society (barring our own parents) is plagued with, makes me stop.<br /><br />(I’m working on it and maybe one day I’ll move to the hills, open a winery and a farm and write a damn book.)<br /><br />The problem is, we’ve been conditioned to believe that performing well academically equates to performing well in life (that’s where the PTSD due to the SKB Syndrome stems from). If you don’t (and if you’re an Indian woman), there’s this baseless perception that you get married. Hear (literally) me say this in bold and italic, this flawed approach is nullified the moment you step into real life and get a real job. I say this because:<br /><br />1. I was academically mediocre, yet I (like to think that) have a real job with no real intentions of getting married<br /><br />2. I don’t use the Pythagoras theorem whilst working out the variance between two data sets<br /><br />3. If and when I do apply for an MBA my work experience, growth, GMAT score (FFS) and how I’ve been a value add to my environment will take precedence over my academic performance<div>
<br />4. I’m not even certain if I want this job or an MBA right now but what I’m certain about is that this is uncertainty is perfectly alright</div>
<div>
<br />Also, the perception that marriage kills career/is a career for some women, is still very much prevalent. Let’s keep in mind that marriage has nothing to do with career. It is a matter of choice and a rather personal one at that. I know women who’re happy being homemakers and I know women who hustle all day while their babies rest in the day care center on the ground floor of my office building. So, give it a rest. </div>
<div>
<br />I’ve been rambling on for roughly 800 words now and this has been more of a conversation than a write up. I think I should sign off. However, In *some* way, I do hope I’ve been a value add this time- adios!</div>

A cluttered mind cannot produce quality thoughts. Isn't it? That's
probably why I haven't updated this space in the longest time. Do you want a
life update, though? I am going to keep the monotonous details (including a failed attempt
at creating something new on the internet) to myself and give you the meat.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In December 2016, my brother and I took a ten day long trip
to the hills. I clicked a few decent pictures up there so I thought I'd post
them here. Constructive criticism is definitely welcome.</div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">I haven't written in eons so it is going to take me some
time to get back into the groove. There is a slight change in the format, though- I won't be blogging about fashion anymore. If you're still following this blog, thank you! Lots
of good vibes and love coming your way. :)</span></div>

I am a sucker for formal clothing- anything from solid bell bottoms to dresses that mean business. A string of mock presentations in the past few months are responsible for this obsession. Unfortunately, my routine is such that I hardly get the chance to wear my black bell bottoms and that is probably the reason why you will either see me in a Kurta-Salwar or my football jersey. That is all that I do- go to college in the morning and yell profanities at the TV at night when Barca loses.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">The first time I came to
terms with loneliness was years ago, in school. I remember being so afraid
to confront it that I pushed it aside and refused to come to terms with it
again for quite a long time. It was such an eerie feeling and the very idea of
loneliness scared me shitless. I was in denial for a very long time. I always
thought of loneliness as a sickness which was more mental than physical that would eat me alive and leave me friendless if I ever gathered the courage to confront it. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">I found myself feeling
left out and lonely even around people.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> I couldn’t relate to most of them and sadly I face this problem even now. I was never alone yet
I felt lonely. My coping mechanism was very weak perhaps because I was a mere
teenager dealing with different emotions all at once- hating on life and
socie</span><span id="goog_732840272" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">ty.. wondering why am I the target every time. What kind of a target, you
ask? Well, I have been very vocal about certain issues I feel we all face at
some point in our life.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">I was at the brink of a breakdown
a few months ago. In December, to be precise. I did not have anybody to talk to
and I did not know what I was going to do about it. This is exactly the time I
decided that I had to woman up! I had to accept and embrace the fact that yes,
I am a lonely person. What was I going to do about it? That was the
first step. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">As I started to spend more
and more time with myself and my thoughts in general, I found that running away from this monster that I had created in my head was futile. I
began thinking about what I want from life, from people… from myself. The first
step i.e acceptance led me to dive into the realm of loneliness. It was nothing
less than meditation considering I came out a changed person.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">Once
you are well aware of yourself and your surroundings you stop “feeling” lonely
because hey, you have YOU! And no one can be a better friend/lover/whatever you
want to call it, than YOU, duh. When I realized this, I did not feel the fear
being a lonely person or the constant need to be around people. And if I can do
it then anyone can!</span></div>

*Edited* - 23/7<br />

So, I have always been a sucker for over sized clothing. I found this tee shirt on the paved streets of Janpath, the infamous tourist spot for beautiful Indian souvenirs, junk jewelry, thrift clothing and whatnot! I fell in love with it at once. I have a special place in my heart for super cool graphic clothing so I had to pick this one up. There is this misconception that the color white makes curvy women look big. Honestly, it doesn't. You'd look as normal as you do in a pair of blue jeans. It just highlights your curves- which is not a bad thing, right?!<br />
The choker is doubled up rosary beads that belong to my mother and the shoes were a steal from Zara, two years ago!<br />
<br />

<span style="text-align: justify;">As you can see, I have finally moved out of my backyard. The pictures were taken by my lovely friend from college Alice S Tigga. Do check her work out on instagram </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/alicetigga/" style="text-align: justify;">here</a><span style="text-align: justify;">. I hope you're having a great day! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I found her body floating amidst the lilies in the pond that
lay like an offering to the sculpture of the five senses. Her beautiful face
was partially submerged in water. Blood drained from my face as I noticed that
her body, now in livor mortis, had been dragged through the courtyard and
thrown into the pond. A knife sticking out of her stomach, blood had soaked her
favorite pink top, mixing with the water, creating a swirl which reminded me of
the fancy lollipops she bought me at the end of our short trips to the supermarket.
We told each other our darkest secrets. She taught me how to drive. She would kiss
my forehead and tell me that everything was going to be alright. She helped me
up when I was at my lowest and yet I couldn't do anything to save her. My knees
weak, I fell to the cold, hard ground. I couldn't feel a bone in my body. I
shouldn't have let her go alone to meet that bastard. I should have known that
he was capable of doing this. My mind kept sifting through such incoherent thoughts
that I didn't realize when two pairs of hands picked me up from the ground and
sat me down on the chair kept on the patch of the lush grass to the left of the
sculpture. They were two women from the
police department. All of a sudden I saw familiar faces around me. A team each
from the police department and the forensic department had arrived to
investigate.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I could feel the wind blowing violently as though mirroring
the whirl in my head. It chilled my face and sent shivers down my spine. As
they picked her body up in order to investigate to find the killer and then
prepare it for cremation, It felt as if my gut was telling me something. All of
a sudden strange smell surrounded the whole courtyard, reminding me of my time
in the forensic department. I started to look around for clues. Could he have
really done this? All I could see were the tall goliath pillars touching the
twinkling stars in the infinite sky and a petite pond across from me, right in
the center of the courtyard. There was not a single person in sight. The trees
rustled as the wind blew through them and my thoughts kept shuffling from one
to another. My mind was a mess. But one thing was certain, my sister had been
killed and revenge was in order.</div>

Arranged marriage is a concept that is embedded in the Indian Culture. It is a concept that involves a third party choosing the bride and the groom. This concept lost it's relevance post the 18th century globally but it still persists in India<i>.</i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i> <b>BIBA, </b>a leading ethnic apparel brand</i>, recently came out with a beautiful short film which portrays the usual arranged marriage set up in an Indian home that subtly mocks the biased Indian mindset which only expects the woman to prove herself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="background-color: white;">
Centuries of conditioning on the part of the society plagued by patriarchy led us to thinking that the physically weaker sex was to be spoken for, decided for, and kept under constant scrutiny. The resulting effect of such a thought process was bound to be adverse. We lost our voice, our control over our own life and our individuality. It was nothing less than stifling. </div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
But change is the only constant. This change, though, involving equal treatment of women in the society was not an easy one. After decades of struggle against the gender biases created by this plague we call patriarchy and the infamous question posed by our elders, <i>"Log kya kahenge?"</i> some of us have successfully come to a point where we can question these norms and practice our own free will. Our struggle continues. There are still millions of women out there who have been victims of patriarchy and haven't been able to break free from it's stifling hold. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The other day, I was walking back to the metro station with someone who randomly asked me why I write. I answered almost instantly, "To let off steam. Every time I am furious or upset about something, I write about it." This is the reason why I had stopped posting. I couldn't bring myself to post.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But I thought about their question one too many times and the fact is, writing is very similar to catharsis, for me. I've grown up being bullied by egoistical losers who felt emasculated every time I called them out on their shit. I've grown up being lectured about how my thunder thighs and my bum don't look good at all (now, I just sing All About That Base and emphasize on the "I'm gettin booty back" part) and like any other average Indian kid, I have been told off for not scoring as well as other people my age. And now when I look back, I feel, as a 13 year old kid... majority of it was unnecessary stress which resulted in major self esteem issues. It could have been avoided and unfortunately, the fear of being judged stopped me from talking to people about it which is why I resorted to writing. </div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Besides, every time I sit to write I feel like I am not kidding myself or anyone else, for that matter. Blogging and talking to you guys is what has played a major role in taping the broken pieces back together.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I read a book called The Forty Rules Of Love by Elif Shafak a few months ago. I must say, it is one of the most beautiful books I have read in the longest time. It taught me that it is through love and acceptance that you can bring a positive change in and around you. And ever since then, slowly and gradually I am falling in love with the way I am- with all of my chubby thighs and my bum. I have learnt that love and acceptance is the only way. I feel happy and content with the way I am. I admit that I become insecure sometimes but I try not to focus on that part of my life. I believe in working on myself in order to achieve the desired goals which I hopefully will someday. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As for Melancholy, it has now become a distant friend who pays me a visit once in a while. I embrace her with open arms. We sit and chat over tea. I tell her lovely things about myself and so does she. She tells me about her life which is something along the lines of her name. I tell her that everything is going to be alright and that she should give Love a try. She tells me that she cannot bring herself to love someone else. I then ask her how she can possibly love someone else when she can't bring herself to love her own self? Try love, I ask her once again. She understands, stands up and embraces me and with a glint of hope in her eyes, she leaves. :)</div>

If you're on the curvier side, try wearing flow-y bottoms and fitted tops. Embellished collars were never exactly my thing.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">I've been
on</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">writer's block for quite some time
now. Crumpled pages and deleted documents is all that comes to my mind when I
look back. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Last year, when I started college,
I started working as a content writer for an online startup and as a writing
intern with a website on the side. Later, I joined a drama society in college which
actually made me want to attend college for a change because it introduced me
to likeminded people. People who wrote. People who had a knack for good music.
People who read. People who could think beyond clothes, shoes and their
boyfriends. I was content. I was happy. I was thankful.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">It didn't
last too long though. After I was done with both my jobs, all I had was the
drama society which had become very dear to me. It was probably the only reason
why I attended college. But shit got real when I had to give my first semester
finals. Eventually, I passed most of the subjects. Most of them, because I
failed Hindi by one mark. I was travelling to Bombay with my society a month before
I got the horrific news about having to give my Hindi exam again in the third
semester. Fucking shit. The trip though, was an eventful one. All I can and
want to say is that this trip and those situations, changed equations. Big
time. After getting my ass kicked by my own choice for a month, I left the
dramatics society too. It was quite a sad decision but I had to take it. At
some level, I knew that I wasn't going to stay for long. Besides, the thing is,
when you put your mind, body and soul into making something happen, you are
bound to get attached to it. And when it is taken away from you, it is gut
wrenching. When you see someone else do it, it is heart breaking. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Meanwhile,
back at (regular) college, I was being targeted for saying things that I (still)
don't remember saying. Politics. Second semester was an ass because of a few uncouth young women. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"> On the upside, I got an opportunity to play a
very prestigious role in a play which was not associated with college. On the
downside, five days before the final performance, I was told that I shouldn't do
it because I wasn't doing it the way it was supposed to be done and that
someone experienced should do it. And they did it. Now when I look back, I
realize that even though that decision left me feeling devastated and
incompetent for the second time in two months, it was a practical one. Even
though I did resent some people for it, I couldn't really help it. Even there,
I was at the learning stage. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">In this grave
desire to learn something new, I was starting to lose touch with the one thing
that was very close to my heart. I had stopped thinking. I had stopped
imagining. I had stopped writing. </span><span style="line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">It was frightening, the day I opened my diary <o:p></o:p></span><span style="line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">and I couldn't describe my feelings, my days.. my life!</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> Penning my thoughts down is like therapy for
me. Besides, it has solution to all my problems. It is something that I love
with all my heart because I know that no one can ever take it away from me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">But all this
while, all I wanted to do was try my hand at something new and something that I
had enjoyed watching other people do. And I did it. I've always been open to
trying new things.. things that will help me grow as an individual, things that
will help me gain knowledge. And I did it all. At this point, I can say for
sure that I do not regret a single decision I made. This is because of the
simple reason that I learnt from every situation that I put myself in and every
decision that I took. It made me strong, resistant and well.. better than
before. I still have shitload of experience to catch up on. After my semester
finals, I guess.</span></div>

College has really given me a chance to explore and experiment. This is what I usually wore to college besides biker jackets, long coats and boots on cold winter mornings. I have finally moved from shooting in my backyard to shooting in college. Yes, this is my college. Well technically, we (my best friend and I. NO SELF TIMER!) shot right outside the Sister's (principal) house but you get my drift, right?! Living in leggings was not really my thing until I got these. AND GUESS WHAT, I CAN<br />
TOTALLY DO PILATES IN THEM!<br />
I was supposed to post this two weeks ago but I couldn't since I had a dozen tests to give and assignments to submit and whatnot! Also, I don't know why but I've been a little disinterested for quite some. I was thinking of shutting this blog down a while back because there is not point in leaving it stagnant. But I am trying to work things out now. Apologies for a brief post. I am working on a research paper and a theater production simultaneously and unfortunately, they take up most of my time. So until next time, au revoir mes amis!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Melancholy ascends as I keep my
dresses away, one by one. Winter is overhead. Mother is stacking tracksuits in
my closet. Tears. She's been telling me to dress safe. "Wear tracksuits to
college every day. You don't want to fall sick." Are you sending me to war,
mother? You know I am not strong enough (physically and mentally) for that.
Also, tracksuits are only (perhaps) worn on Mondays in order to mourn the
sudden demise of the weekend which rises from the sands like a fallen soldier
at the end of every week (duh) but unfortunately, can't hold itself for too
long.<br />
I decide that I am not going to live my life in thick, ugly tracksuits with a certain word studded across my butt (even though I know I am going to end up in them). Honestly speaking, I love experimenting. I feel like one should not stick to certain clothes/outfits/styles (ugly tracksuits alert- i don't know how that happened but I see it every winter). Instead, they should experiment with their clothes and other people's also. For example, the uneven jacket in the following outfit is my mum's. Lulz. Oftentimes, I wear my dad's over sized graphic tees with leggings and boots and of course a leather jacket- which should be a staple in all our closets (that's the only reason I look forward to winters). I like to keep my outfits laid back yet presentable. </div>

It's been a while. What's up? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, college started a month ago and I am studying English and French. College has made me productive and pretty damn overconfident. The one thing I am really happy about is the fact that I am not lazy and distracted like I was six months ago. I feel like I wasted 2013 being in a perpetual state of laziness. But now, I know what I gotta do. And I gotta do what I gotta do. </div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wearing: Uneven peplum top- thrifted; Rugged jeans; Leather jacket & Sandals- Zara; Yellow Clutch- Youshine.in; Sunglasses- Asos</span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bought the white peplum top from one of the thrift shops in Sarojini. I hadn't been there in a year until last week. Those horrible sheer clothes were enough to make me swear off thrift markets forever. But last week I was on the lookout for clothes for my best friends for our Freshers' so we ended up at the great ol' Sarojini Nagar. The market did have some good stuff, surprisingly. So if you're in the mood to shop- go ahead. Don't forget to take an umbrella though.<br />
I used the leather jacket more like an accessory because it is still very hot and a leather jacket in this bitchass bipolar weather (tropical country, ya'll) is a nightmare. But when you slide into your four year old jeans, glide the zipper up and button them without squeezing your stomach in, you say to yourself, "F***.THE.WEATHER". <br />
Moving on, white sandals/shoes can be worn at any point of the day or night which makes them extremely versatile. So investing in a pair of white shoes/sandals is a good idea all together.</div>

<i>The following has been written by Luke Meagher, the founder of <a href="http://www.hautelemode.com/" target="_blank">Haute Le Mode</a>, a street style blog documenting the most fashionable people from around New York City. <span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></i></div>

<i>College, for most of us, starts on Monday and now that we've passed school we don't need to wear a uniform. For girls, it is good AND bad because we get to wear something new everyday instead of wearing the same old boring uniform but then our day usually starts with us repeating the same question, frantically- What do I wear?!!</i></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 19px; text-align: center;">
<i>Now, my knowledge about what boys go through before college starts is mostly limited. I really wonder if boys go through the same dilemma as girls do. Until I can give young men a proper fashion advice, here's Luke's answer to your question "WHAT DO I WEAR?!!" (Do boys really ask themselves that everyday? I'm curious.)</i></div>

Hello Guys, yes I am taking to the young men who read fashion blogs,</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 19px; text-align: center;">
as a student at an all boys high school I see a lot of guys. Beautiful guys who I can’t keep my eyes off of, sorry I’m being slutty. But when I see what those guys are wearing I go from jaw drop to they need a floor to mop. Sorry boys, you are lazy. Yes your sweatpants and ugly nike sneakers are bored, tired, and need some R&R. And your fairy gay mother has some amazing ideas of how you can dress to impress but still be lazy.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 19px; text-align: center;">
Firstly, Air Jordan’s and Roshes are the best way to look “fly” and sophisticated. Your high top Jordan’s # whatever can give you an an edge. Roshes are stylish and they also add a little bit of height. Neither should be paired with cargo pants and anything remotely khaki colored. These sportswear shoes should be kept strictly sportswear. And after the sports wear trend hit Couture Week in Paris, you look anything but Couture if you aren’t in these sporty sneaks. </div>

So with that said you can also have some great comfortable pants that don’t make you look frumpy and dumpy. Athletic wear has become a big part of the fashion industry as should above. Use this fashion era to your advantage and be comfortable and still look good. Track pants are a must. Whether it is slim fit joggers or the original Adidas track pants, definitely pick up a pair to look slick and comfortable. You could also try to add a little flare and try harem pants, or drop crotch if you don’t mind the diaper jokes.</div>

Basic black and white tees are a must, due to their ability to blend in with any outfit. There are many brands such as Supreme and Stussy which also have the ability to polish a look. These shirts have graphics that are noticeable and more street brand. They are affordable and are good quality. These clothes will be with you for a long time. They are a young persons Prada or Givenchy.

Finally baseball caps. Yes baseball caps, I know you wear them already. But what about pleather or mesh baseball caps? Did you think of that yet? No you didn’t, don’t lie to me. Baseball caps can save you from a bad hair day or just be a great accessory for a man’s wardrobe. Just make sure the rim is flat. “If it isn’t flat, it’ll make you look fat”. I don’t know if that is actually true, I just made it up. But God Dammit Go Buy A Hat!</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">When I said that life would become easier after my board
exams, I was lying because I am currently caught in the web of entrance exams.
It's all basic stuff but when you have an encounter with math after two whole
years (and if you are me), you're bound to cry yourself to sleep every night.
The saying "The more you run away from something, the more it runs behind
you" is quite true in my case. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It doesn't end here. Results come out in a week and I'm extremely anxious and those who ask me about it make it worse. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, for this post I decided to get out of the house (after what? 3 years. Weaow). This is what I came up with after filtering through about forty five pictures. Majority of them had this elder person in a white shirt photo bombing and basically killing my vibe. </div>

This is the closest i can get to what i usually wear during the summer months. I avoid layering but when the weather is pleasant, i do throw a thin jacket on top if required. I have styled this denim jacket in one of my previous posts also. Check it out <a href="http://www.aishwaryakhanna.net/2013/10/minimal.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>

<span style="font-weight: normal; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I am the worst when it
comes to shopping. All those who have ever gone out shopping with me always end
up asking me, "Why the hell are you so angry?” I get red faced because of
the following reasons- a) It looks good on the rack but not on me b) It's
either out of stock or it isn't available in my size c) after a point, I get
sick of trying clothes on. In short, I do not have patience for malls and
stores. This is one reason why I have now resorted to online shopping- God's
gift to humanity. </span></span></div>

Karl Lagerfeld has always been my inspiration. My love for his work is one of the very reasons why I started this blog in the first place.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently, Chanel released a short film directed by Karl Lagerfeld to celebrate their latest Metier d'Art fashion show in Dallas. It is called "The Return". I absolutely loved it. Check it out-</div>

When I go out, I usually like keeping it simple. Less IS more. Now that autumn is here, I finally tried my hand at layering. Since the dreadful summer months are over and it's pretty pleasant now, I can carry a jacket with me just in case it gets chilly. </div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another thing, my thunder thighs and school, both are becoming stressful by the day. I haven't stopped going for a run, though- I go every other day i.e once in a blue moon. I'm afraid, Readers. I don't want them to become thunderous. My bottom half, I mean. </div>

I have been looking for a few basic t shirts for quite some time. Basic tees serve an important function as a wardrobe staple and basic layering tool. Over time, you can also use them to experiment and try your hand at some cool DIYs. This jacket.. shirt was my mother's before I decided to slyly pinch it from her closet. Thankfully, one can layer their outfits in autumn and not sweat like a pig. SCORE! </div>

Wow hi, remember me? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My absence from Bling Struck has been haunting me in my sleep. And I'm back! School obviously sucks and the only highlight of my day is morning football practice and hanging out wimma homies... that's all. It's my last year and my laziness is going to be the death of me. People around me are going batshit crazy because of how chilled out I am. I should take my last year very seriously if I want to get into the college of my dreams.. I know it. Sometimes, I laugh at my attitude towards.. er.. well, everything. I'm not having the time of my life at the moment.. I guess I'm not supposed to.</div>

This has long been overdue. I was supposed to tell you guys the moment I got it but I was so excited that I forgot to do the most important thing in the world! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently (lol), I was featured in Allen Solly's <span style="color: red;">C</span><span style="color: magenta;">o</span><span style="color: blue;">l</span><span style="color: lime;">o</span><span style="color: #351c75;">u</span><span style="color: orange;">r L</span><span style="color: cyan;">a</span><span style="color: purple;">b</span> lookbook. Remember <a href="http://aishwaryakhanna.blogspot.in/2013/05/behind-scenes-with-allen-solly.html" target="_blank">this</a> post? I went around strutting the lookbook for a while because it was my first printed feature. I was the youngest one on it (hehe). But now that I am over that phase, I am ready to share it with you guys. Most of you would have already seen it, courtesy: my tweets. But... TA-DAAAA. :D </div>

Here I've paired my Aztec maxi with my mother's black tee and a white hat. Surprisingly the weather was very very pleasant in the afternoon and I was actually hoping that the the rain Gods pee on us for a bit- I wouldn't have minded that (sadly that did not happen). I live in a tropical country and It's effin hot. We need it. *sigh*</div>

Recently, designers, actors, models and other fashion fiends attend the annual gathering known as the Met Ball. The theme this year was "Punk: Chaos to Couture". In my honest opinion, it was more of chaos than "Couture". How did Anna Wintour not wear her sunglasses to the event? <strike>Some</strike> Majority of them need classes on how to dress according to a theme. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Very few actually made the effort and embraced the theme this year. Punk has been one of the toughest themes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Miley cyrus did a good job. She stuck to the theme.</div>

Kim Kardashian's outfit was a disaster. It was so bad that she was Kropped out of Vogue's Met Gala slideshow. She wore a floral maternity gown with gleeves designed by Riccardo Tisci who himself defended her oh so sweetly. Dear Riccardo, Punk is defined as either "being rebellious" or "an inexperienced young man" so what exactly were you trying to do by designing a FLORAL maternity gown for her?! "I wanted to have a Kim Kardashian moment".. you sure did.. but you made her look like a house. I am not even going to apologize. </div>

"<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #444444;">Look, there’s been a lot of virtual ink and tears spilled over criticism regarding her maternity wear choices, but we have to be honest here. There’s no way for us to argue that this looks anything but awful on her. We’re one hundred percent behind the idea of pregnant women showing off their pregnancy and indulging in high fashion, but we firmly believe that certain looks should be considered off the table by any of her gays, stylists, or other dressing room co-pilots. People need to be steering her away from mermaid skirts and pencil skirts, as well as skin-tight over-busy gowns like this, which make her look like she can’t breath and have us assuming that little Kanye Kardashian Jr. is banging on the walls from the inside and screaming about how he wants a bigger room.</span></span></div>
