Hello folks!
My first big hello and tightest hugs for 2018 to all of you.
I am so happy and thankful for all those who have visited my blog for the past two years and have appreciated all the things I do. Yes! It's been two years since I started this blog to share all the things I love with you guys. I'm celebrating my two year blogversary this 23rd January. Thank you so much for being a part of the WC fam.

Today, I'll be talking all about plaid. It has been the most raved about trend this fall/winter 2017-18. It has been all over the runways and the streets. Whether you are interested in approaching a serious, office look or a more playful, 70s one, this versatile print will most likely turn into your favorite trend for this season. You will probably find it crafted into coats, blazers, pants, skirts, bags etc. Pulling off this trend should be a piece of cake. You can surely play around with this trend.

I decided to go for a pantsuit kind of look but still wanted to play a bit with it. So, I wore my plaid print jeggings instead of the pants. I went for a simple yet chic look which is something I always prefer. Teamed up my jeggings with a basic yet trustworthy white turtleneck sweater and threw on my plaid print frayed blazer. For footwear, I opted for my two tone block heels. Lastly, to finish off the look and also to accessorize a bit, I brought out my black handbag with a scarf which is a dupe for the Hermes Birkin handbag and my cat-eye kind of animal printed sunglasses. Cat-eye and futuristic sunglasses are a big trend this season. You can just mix and match and replace the pieces here and there with something that suits you better and totally pull off this trend.

Hey folks!
How is Monday treating you all?
Hoping that your week started off pretty well.

Let's directly talk about today's post. I had to write down a post on everything red going on this season. Red is the new black. From runways to the streets, the fiery red is the hottest hue this season. Scarlet, maroon, crimson or for that matter, any shade of red is appreciated. The power color red is popping up on everything from leather jackets to denim jackets to bags to bottoms to shoes. You can opt for just one piece to be red in your outfit or you can go a bit crazy and opt for head to toe red outfit (not for the faint-hearted though).

I found this beautiful V-neck knit sweater in red at Sarojni Nagar. It was love at first sight with the sweater which would probably not happen in case of a guy ever. Also, layering is a great trend which keeps you warm too. So, I decided to layer my white turtleneck sweater underneath. For bottoms, I chose my side studded denims. To finish off the look, I wore my grey ankle boots and my crossbody bag with statement straps which are a big trend too. Also, I'm totally loving the clear frame glasses trend too.

Hey! Hey! Hey!
Long time, no see?
Hope my post finds you in the best of your health and spirits.
I have a lot of thoughts in my mind that need to be put down in columns. There are so many different kind of things happening in my life right now. I wish penning down everything could just vanish all the worries and bring in all the happiness that everyone deserves. Life is unpredictable. Live your life and be a free bird. Do what you love and not what others want you to do. Also, I have been traveling a lot to the plains and then back to the mountains - my hometown.

This particular post had to be published a month ago but then better late than never, right?
Also, fall is not so far now. And, I'm loving the new AW'17 collection. Today, I'm sharing a very casual yet an all put together look with you guys. You'll find me wearing a casual blazer but I assure you that it's a very light one, perfect for those days when you want to bring a whole outfit together. A simple monochrome outfit can be glamorized by adding a blazer or a pair of cute heels or a cute bag. Accessories make a huge difference in an outfit. I grabbed the same old pair of black denims and a white crop top and teamed it up with this cool faded grey color casual blazer. I decided to go for a similar colored ankle boots and my cute cat-eye sunglasses. The makeup is all minimal with bold red lips and for a change, you'll find my hair in curls. Always remember to choose the right accessories for a chic look.

Welcome back to another post of Happy Soul.
Thankyou so much for taking out those precious five minutes of the day and reading this post. This may sound a bit ironical but the reason I'm saying this is because your 'FIVE' minutes do mean a lot to me, it really does. You guys read my posts and whether you like it or not but giving it a shot and still reading it is the biggest thing for me. All this means a lot to me. Some people ask me whether I earn from this blog or not, why am I doing it, why do I keep on writing posts and stuff. My answer to all this is that I do not earn from my blog yet but yes, it is a medium of earning money. At first, even I wasn't aware of the monetary stuff related to blogs but later on, I came to know that bloggers do earn. But, the main thing that I want you all to know is that I did not start this blog for money. I started blogging because I wanted to share my thoughts, views, fashion and style with the world. I still don't earn a penny from my blog and I just write and share stuff with you people because I love to. I hope I've answered few of the questions that have been boggling many minds out there.

Today's post is up featuring Culottes. I know, I know...this had to be up last week but there's no harm in doing so this week either. Culottes are trending a lot. They are must have pants for SS'16. Pick up some wide leg cropped pants and make your own combinations. Try experimenting and put some of your own ideas on how to pair culottes. You can wear a simple crop top, different prints, billowy sleeves (another must have of this season), off-shoulder and cold-shoulder tops. You can also throw over a leather jacket or trench coats if you're living in a colder region. Who says culottes can be worn only the casual way? For my first look, I paired my white culottes with a white billowy-sleeved cold-shoulder/bardot top. To give it a more sophisticated look, I wore my black pointed pumps, added a piece of DIY Wrap Choker (let me know if you guys want to know how I made this wrap choker in the comments below) and wore a pair of cat-eye sunglasses. I tied up my hair in a pony to focus all the attention on the cold-shoulder/bardot top. This look is perfect if you're bored with your daily casual looks and in are some desperate need of change.

For the second look, I decided something for the casual lovers. I've got another way to pair the culottes. I wore my super comfy black culottes with an olive-green halter neck top. For footwear, I wore my white espadrilles and added the same DIY Wrap Choker but in a different way with my fav pair of sunglasses. This outfit is best for casual dayouts, movie dates, shopping sprees, picnic etc. And, I tell you guys that culottes are the comfiest pair of pants I've ever worn. They are real.

White Culottes: Thrifted
Black Culottes: Thrifted
White Cold-shoulder/Bardot top: Thrifted
Halter Top: Forever 21

Hope you all liked this post.
Until next time...

Hey beautiful souls!!
Another month has come to an end. This week has been totally crazy for me. I've been out with my friends partying, sharing so many thoughts and chilling with those rascals somewhere in the mountains. We've been longing to spend some quality time. How we just wished our other 2 squad members could have joined us (Zangmo & Nawang, we missed you guys so bad). You just need a keen listener, a friend and someone who understands you to share all the thoughts that have been lingering all over your mind. And, when you find such a person it just leaves you feeling relieved. The month of March has come to an end with loads of memories, priceless moments and happy days. I believe that at the end of the day, you are responsible for your happiness as well as your sorrows. The end of every month just promises a better start of the next month for all of us. So, here I am with my March Favorites to end my month.

First favorite up for this month is my Leather Jacket from Zara. It has been my go-to piece for every outfit. It has got a bit of stud detailing which gives it the look of a biker jacket. I just need to carry my leather jacket and I'm ready to go out. It keeps me warm and cozy as well as adds that extra oomph factor to any outfit. A leather jacket is a must in your wardrobe because you can never go wrong with it.


Next up is my turtleneck top from H&M. Black is my favorite color and turtlenecks have been my love for this A/W'15 season. I love how it fits perfectly and is ribbed which makes it super-comfy. It can be paired with almost anything from distressed denims to skirts or flared pants etc. Whenever in doubt, wear black and turtlenecks.


My third favorite for this month are these lovely cat-eye sunglasses. I ordered it from Koovs (online shopping site). I've always been in love with Koovs. They have got the best stuff compared to any other site. These sunglasses feel so good when you wear them and they completely protect you from UV rays too.


I have been loving this Johnson's baby lotion a lot. When you apply it on your hands the previous night, it leaves your hands feeling baby soft the next morning. I basically use it to remove my whole face makeup. It wipes off the eye and lip makeup so easily in just one swipe. It is so gentle on your skin as it is meant for the babies and their super soft skin. And, it is totally free of chemicals too.


My last favorite for the month is Strawberry Body Mist from 'The Body Shop'. This body mist smells divine and is so long-lasting. It has got that fruity smell which obviously has got more of strawberries. It smells so pure and heavenly. I completely love the fragrance of this body mist.


This is all for March favorites. See you soon :)
Until next time...
xoxo
