Ewa Young Haul- Wishing on Summers

Hi guys! So okay okay, I promise this will be the last haul for a while! I just convinced myself not to shop again last night because you shouldn't do that when you're broke! Lets hope I can control myself. I have to! 
So this is a haul and review sort of post since I couldn't find many for this site (ewayoung.com) and was a little skeptical about ordering from here. But the stuff was too good to pass on, so I took a risk. And it paid off. The clothes are amazing!. The material, quality, design, fit, everything! The one thing though, is definitely check out the sizing chart before ordering because they run very true to size so its important to check them out and not just go with your usual size as mass produced clothes have wonky sizing. The delivery time is pretty good too but as I did not have any problems with my order I don't have any idea about the customer care.
So, I ordered three things from here. A printed crop top, a bustier crop top and a suspender skater skirt. The collection might be a little risque for some but I love it and its all in the styling isn't it?

So here's what I got!

So first off, I'm wearing a floral bustier and a suspender skater skirt both from ewa young. The top is very pretty and fits very well. It has a zipper on the side and criss-cross straps from the back. Its quite short so works well with high waisted skirts and shorts. I think it would work well with sarees and lehengas too for an indo-western touch. It is has moulded cups so it gives a very neat shape to the bust area. It is plain black from behind which I think is relevant information somehow. 

Coming to the skirt now, I love skater skirts as they are fun and flirty and feminine (lots of f's here, huh?) I chose the suspender one as it was something different and also versatile in the sense that I could tuck the straps in and wear it as a regular skater skirt too. The skirt has good volume and looks amazing while twirling. There are also red and white options available now and obviously, non suspender ones on the website.

Okay, so here I have this lip print crop top you might have seen in my Valentine's Day Lookbook . This crop top has a big hit with everyone who has seen me wear it. I have styled this two ways, one with red pants and white sneakers and other is the same look from my lookbook with a black pencil skirt and red heels. The material again is great and the print is nice and vibrant. As you can see, this is also short but not as much as the bustier.

This top can be worn casually and also semi formally despite of the print. It is great to add a fun element to a monochrome outfit. The detailing of the lip is on point which some red and pink shading. Overall, I am in love with this. Enough said.

So, in conclusion, the website is amazing, the stuff is amazing, the pictures are true to product, the delivery time is great, I really don't know what else to say. If I was to nitpick though, the one thing is that the clothes are dry clean only but well that's on the material not the brand. I would totally recommend this website!

Valentines Day Lookbook

Hi guys! So Valentines around the corner and its time to plan out those outfits. Whether you're going out with your significant other, your best friend or chilling alone, its a great excuse to dress up and get out. So I decided to use all the stuff I keep on buying to post a lookbook for you guys! I'm also a huge hoarder so there is a lot of stuff that is ages old and alot of street shopping so I've linked similar products for those. So now, grab that cup of coffee or tea 'cause this going to be a long one!

Look 1:

So the first look is all girly with the pink and the tulle for the super feminine Valentines look! The top is off shoulder which is right on trend and amazingly flattering on almost everyone and the skirt has a pretty pattern at the bottom edge making it feminine despite all the black. To add an edge, I have added a simple choker and black wedges. All the looks are with stockings because its weather appropriate and also because I feel that it classes up the look.


The top is actually a blush pink bodysuit I recently got from koovs and skirt is from Mumbai street shopping but you can find similar ones online. Bodysuits are perfect for skirts because it makes the look neater and well tucked in. The stockings you can find anywhere and everywhere, street shops, online, malls, etc. The heels are black wedges I got a while back from hype and I have overused them since.

Skirt: Mumbai street shopping

Wedges: Hype

Choker: Lifestyle

Look 2:

For the second look, I've tried to add a ethnic touch to the outfit. The magenta is very bright and stands out against the white jeans. This is actually a kaftan that I had stitched and the neck work of the pearl was hand done. The kaftan is a very interestingly shaped kurta that makes this look very different and well, I've always thought that to be a good thing.


The material of the kaftan is very thin so I am wearing a white slip underneath, you can add different slips for a fun element. My earrings are a result of street shopping. I've always loved danglers and the pearls in the earrings just paired perfectly with the neckline. Though not pictured, I have paired this with a nude pair of heels that ties in with the nude suede look edge of the kaftan.

White Jeans: Lee

Look 3:

This look is a little more formal, great for a date at a high end restaurant. The look is actually quite simple, the colors and the fit is what makes it formal. So here I have paired a crop top with a pencil skirt. The stockings are the same as the first look. The heels are red and strappy and high and make the look really sexy. I just put on red earrings and a red lipstick for the perfect accessories. 



The red adds a romantic touch and the lip print on the top makes this whole look very fun and flirty. This look works very well for candlelight dinners and such but the fit of the skirt makes it not so appropriate for a club or a girls night out because you really can't dance in this. I have always loved stilettos and this five inch pair is surprisingly comfortable.

Look 4:

If you follow me on instagram, you might have already had a sneak peak into this look already. I love this color and the shape of the dress is so unique that it is a showstopper. I wanted to do a different colour from the usual red and pink and black and this was so stunning! The dress has a slouchy fit and it is one sleeved which is very different. Off shoulders and one shoulders are trending and this is a different way to embrace these trends.


I wore these heels I recently got online. The heels are colorful and striped and asymmetrical. They work very well with the colour and shape of the dress but also add a fun element. The jewelry tone I went for was silver, but gold would work too. The bangle is square and the earrings are short in the front and have a long drop in the back. As you can see by now, this entire look is made up of elements that are very different and unique and that I think is the best part.

Look 5:

This look is I think the classic Valentines look. The black dress, the red accessories, its what you envision for a Valentines date night, right? Or maybe its just me. So this dress was actually a gift I got long back and it was so loose and plain, so I got this thick statement belt, not only to improve the shape but also to add some colour. The neck of the this dress was a deep V so I modified it into an off shoulder dress because that is so trending right now and it also made the neckline more suitable for me.

The belt is a snake print stretchable one with gold locking in the center and the heels are the ones in Look 3. You could use any other color to brighten up the look, as long as you have a statement belt, it will work. For accessorizing I put on this long chain necklace from Lifestyle, I doubled up to get a layered choker look and this old bag from my mom. I've worn stockings in every dress or skirt look till now so why stop here?

Look 6:

The final look is a black skater dress with a net yoke and a sweetheart neckline. I love the sweetheart neckline so much. This has little silvery shimmery things which makes this not so plain. The shape of this dress is flattering on almost everyone and I think this is a great party dress.

The shape makes this dress easy to move in and the silver makes it blingey so you can wear this to the club and girls night outs too! I wore my Nell heels here too for the fun element as I was going for the girls night out lok but black heels will do for a more classy look. I haven't added any accessories to not add any worries when dancing the night away and also I was feeling lazy, but obviously, you do you, boo.

H&M Sale Haul 2017

Hi guys! So for today's post I'm going to be showing you my recent haul from the crazy sale at H&M. If you've seen by blog before you would probably know that I recently went to Delhi/Gurgaon. While there, I went to Vasant Kunj to check out the malls and ended up shopping at H&M. They had this insane sale going on so obviously, I had to shop(even though I just had just shopped from koovs).  I spend money even when I have no money. I think I have a problem.

So this was my first time at H&M and it might be a little difficult to believe but its true. Since my city does not have H&M, and I believe in instant gratification, I generally shop online or one of the stores that I do have here. I loved the collection as it was really on trend and they had everything I had on my wishlist since so long.

And then, a couple of days later, I went there again! But this time at their store in Ambience Mall, Gurgaon. So here's all that I picked up.

Well, I don't like hauls without a try-on, because you can't really get the clothes unless you see someone wearing it, so here is the try-on!

Both the playsuits are quite similar, actually only differing in print. They have an interesting criss cross detail on the back and also have pockets. The waist is elasticated to give a great fit while still be super comfortable. I love playsuits for a casual day out with the girls or even just for staying in and lounging around. They look really chic but give the comfort of wearing pajamas. 
h&m black lace up bodysuit with floral shorts

The bodysuit is one of my favourite things to wear as it is super practical and gives a very clean, tucked in look. This black one is very simple and minimalist but still super trendy due to the lace up details at the neck line. The floral shorts are super comfortable and casual. I have been loving high waisted shorts as i feel they are super flattering and give that hourglass shape. The print is not the kind I usually go for but on these it works well. The material is quite nice, making it appropriate to wear out also. Again, these are perfect for a casual chic look such as a Sunday brunch with the girls. 

wearing h&m black skirt and goofing around

I paired the black skirt with a grey crop top from Westside, the fit of the skirt was quite formal so this crop top just made the look more casual. My sister crashed the shoot and this is the picture I ended up with. 😂
I know its not the best thing to put up on your blog if you're wanting to be taken seriously but well I had to feature my sister! And well, I am weird in real life.

Following up that crazy picture with a formal look, I have paired this really pretty lace dress with my wedges from Hype, going for a very streamlined black look. Rather than adding a pop of colour with my heels, this time I went for black on black for a chic, cocktail party look. I love that the dress is midi length but the slip ends above the knee, giving it a sheer lace panel at the bottom.

I hope you enjoyed my haul, thank you for reading and lots of love! 😘😘😘
