Summer doesn’t just bring along with it…the sun…but it also brings along a new fashion season! And you all must have understood by now how crazy I am about fashion right? Well, today I ain’t just here to tell you how to stock up a new wardrobe…I am here to help you make your check list of the stuff you should seriously consider buying for this season! So go on ….my fella’s indulge…..!
(Courtesy:: I have uploaded a few of my pictures just to give you a insight what you should actually look for)

Fashion

1. Sunglasses: Go ultra glam with just the perfect pair! Something huge; kind of honeybee shaped with studs in the sides…to give you that edge over others…Guys opt for something classic yet huge…if you understand what I am trying to say..Brands ain’t important….you just need to find yourself something to protect yours pretty “peepers” from the harmful UV.
Try: Fastrack Biker Collection for Guys and Ladies look out for brands like Oakley and Ray-Ban and sports fan’s you guys can check out the new collection of Carrera Sport.

2. Bright Junk Jewelry: A look is never complete without junk….Summer brings with it naughty heated moments….light flirty conversations…and everything “summer-y” you can think of…so please do me a favor go out buy yourself some subtle young light but bright colored chains, delicate bracelets, anything too heavy “is so” not summer and be very light on the ears….with small earrings, diamonds and the new plastic junk that you get!The boho look is in too!
Try: See Archie’s Collections, Hallmark, and Riverdale…in short all those gift shops….or if you want to go light on your pockets go for a stroll in linking road, lokhandwala market, colaba causeway, fashion street, etc.

3.Comfy Slip-ons: Ok…I don’t get it?…its summer and people are running around wearing keds, stiletto’s…leather straped…or knee-length boots! I mean..just cause it’s the latest fashion abroad doesn’t mean that you follow it blindly! Those people wear it because its probably winter out there….but do not forget its summer here!!! Stick to comfy slippers like osho’s or perhaps if you are a college student like me you can opt for converse…they are just so darn comfortable! By the way please keep your eyes open for this new thing that has come out called ‘Crocs’…they are just the best!
Try: Again local shop vendors, street markets, sports showrooms like nike, adidas, puma or those duty free multi-brand selling factory outlets.

4. Hair Accessories: It’s hot….and you got gorgeous long hair that is simply to hard to manage in this heat! What do you?…well nothing…just buy yourself some hair accessories.Hairbands, Headbands, clips, rubber bands, pins..the works!
Try: Cute girlie girl clips in pink, sky blue and orange…with perhaps hearts, stars and cute lil things…..single colored or bi-colored hairbands…don’t buy something multicolored cause everyone else is already wearing that…do you really want to be in the crowd or do you want to be “the crowd”? Think about it!

5. Big Handbags: Huge bags are all the rage….buy something you can dump all your make-up, your books…your novels….your clothes your wallets your everything! Buy something with long straps so it’s just comfortable enough to hold….and something bright is always advisable!
Try: In Touch in Inorbit, Malad….local vendors….Baggit branded bags in shops and asoka collection of lokhandwala. Maybe even bags in shopper’s stop and lifestyle.

Beauty

1. Sunscreen: Ban the sun this summer! Do not let the UV rays harm you! And tan you!
Try: Lotus SPF 30+, Lakme or the all time best Banana boat….Please opt for sunscreens above 25 SPF because the sun in India can really harm the skin.

2.Shampoo: Shampoo your hair everyday to have a cool and clean scalp…the heat can cause dryness, itchiness, split ends dandruff and what not! And if you think that its bad to shampoo your hair everyday…think again cause that is just a myth!
Try: Ultra Doux with plant milk, Sunsilk Velvetly Soft or Pantene balanced clean.

3. Subtle Make-up: Do not wear layers of make up cause all of it well get all greasy and stuff due to the heat..and you might end up looking like a disaster! Wear to the max only black kohl, liner to define eyes…and gloss…..for shiny lips!
Try: Water Shine Liquid Diamonds Maybelline in Crystal Amethyset or Lotus lip balm for mosturized lips.You can opt for balms that have sunscreen too…that way your lips will be protected!

4. Nail Polish: Use bright colours like pink, blue, orange nothing to bold though…just fresh! Black nails look good too….you just need to know how to carry it…that’s all!
Try: Lakme, Elle 18, Street Wear…actually to tell you the truth I don’t think brands matter in nail enamels..if you think you got the right match for you go ahead and buy it!

So I hope you are happy, aren’t you?
