bohemian | Everything Fusion

I stepped into my fourth semester at school 2 weeks ago and things have been crazy since then. As always, I am taking time to fall into a new schedule. I have been lost, to some extent, such that once I got days confused and ended up going to the gym on the wrong day for a class.

If classes and job search weren’t enough, I have taken up internships at a couple of places. Ok, 3 places. That’s a lot, no? I took up these opportunities because I was excited about the profiles and learning they had to offer; I couldn’t say no to any of them.

In the process, I have pretty much ignored my shop and my blog. Thank God for scheduling, my social media has been pretty active.

Talking about internships, I was pretty nervous about them. Initially, I had doubts about even getting through, forget surviving. To overcome this fear, I decided to face it. I just went for it. I applied at 3-4 places, gave interviews and to my surprise, got through all of them! Imagine my delight!

I have begun work on all of them and it is super-fun. I enjoy all the profiles. Sometimes, it is craft work (something I haven’t done since graduation days), sometimes styling and sometimes handling social media – all of which I enjoy. It is so much fun going back to what I really enjoy.

More about them later.

This post was long due. I really liked how the pictures came out and was reserving them for a ‘better time’. Well, there is no better time than now. So here they are.

Skirt: The Basic Closet

Top: Custom made

Shoes: Payless

Earrings: Fabindia (gifted)

Bangles: Street find, India

I came to know of Free People after I bought a FP tank top for my yoga class. It fits me really well. The material is great. That had me looking at their collection. And now I am pretty much a fan.

As the name suggests, their style is mostly bohemian, bold and contemporary but you can find touches of feminine here and there. They have interesting prints, silhouettes and one can let their creativity go wild mixing them. Earlier known as Urban Outfitters, they say on their website that they decided to shed their Juniors image and create mature and contemporary designs that would be preferred by women in their late twenties.

‘And that’s just who we wanted to reach: a 26-year-old girl, smart, creative, confident and comfortable in all aspects of her being, free and adventurous, sweet to tough to tomboy to romantic. A girl who likes to keep busy and push life to its limits, with traveling and hanging out and everything in between. Who loves Donovan as much as she loves The Dears, and can’t resist petting any dog that passes her by on the street’.

Their clothes mostly have tones of blue, grey and white but colours like Oxblood pop out on you too. What I particularly like about their designs is that they have flavours of Indian patterns like all Boho clothing. So, there you go. Apart from bold and modern, they are good fusion garb too.

I am digging these right now.
