This is an outfit I wore back in September ’12, but it just seems right to blog about it in May ’13 since everyone is talking about monochrome prints and crop-tops this summer. I’m wearing an old tee from New Look- I chopped the ends off and was left with rough, jagged edges, which I love. If you’re still on the fence about printed trousers, buy them ๐ This stripey pair is perfect to tszuj up an outfit and it goes with everything from tees and flip-flops to dainty jewels and heels.
I thrive on colour, so I had to add a pop of colour to the black n white outfit – some chunky tribal bangles and a bright yellow bag. I love the bag because of the kitschy black and white panel with Bollywood actresses all over it. It’s from a really cool brand called Poppurri. They’re based in India, but they ship internationally too.
Trousers: River Island via ASOS
Crop Top: DIY/New Look
Shoes: New Look
Bag: Poppurri
Bangles:ย Moroccan Flea-market (ASOS has similar onesย here)
Love the bag Savuu! Also, these sort of pants are all the rage at Mango Singapore right now…as soon as I saw them I thought of you–the perfect person to carry them off ๐
Shilpi that’s true- stripes are all the rage this summer. You indulge me too much ๐
Hey Savi so much fun to read your blog:) Not to miss out on the fact that you look absolutely gorgeous. The Diva bag looks perfect with your ensemble. A big thank you for the feature:) Totally hooked to Bruised Passports.
Thanks a ton Insiya. I’ve loved that bag ever since I bought it ๐
I have some baggy trousers with what looks like animal print on them. They’re great for summer and I think they look good too, but I can never get the feeling out of my head that some people think I forgot to change out of my pyjamas! I guess it’s all about wearing with confidence, right?!
Absolutely- dress ’em up a bit, and you’re ready to roll ๐
Visited your blog today only…and just loved it…amazing photos..and great trips..
Thanks a ton Sneha
I’m itching for a pair of pants like this but have been on the fence about buying a pair. Think I’m ready to jump over the fence now:) How do you wash a top that is frayed from chopping it off? Love the bag; really makes the cool outfit!
It would be best to hand wash it. But if you’re as lazy as me, just pop it in the machine with your delicates Sher ๐ Buy a pair of stripey pants – it’s easy to style them in a gazillion different ways
