Trend Alert: Tie-Dye Will Make You Feel The Love
The Fashion Print You Can Wear All Year Round: Tie-Dye!
If you have been following me on Instagram and my blog, my love for travelling must be palpable to you. I always felt there is something alive and profound in travel, and my love story with travelling has been an ongoing one. Last year alone my husband, Vikram, and I travelled to Jordan, Fujairah, Fiji, and many beautiful parts of our home country, India.
Travelling always fascinated me from a very young age, and I visualised it as a deep breath that I inhaled and allowed to touch my spirit filling me with positive vibes. I made the decision earlier on in my life that I wanted to make travel a priority in my life, and I know for sure that I will remain a lifelong lover of exploring new destinations ~ especially as I love to interact with the locals, try new foods and generally experience a different way of life.
My travel diaries are filled with the kaleidoscopic charm of different countries, and places in my home country ~ filling me with experiences that were unexpected, adventurous, mystical, and many that I could not even have imagined! Yes, there is this element of curiosity and creativity that is associated with travelling, and it has influenced my thoughts and ideas and made me the person that I am today.
I will, of course, continue to share my travels here on my blog and my social media channels, and I hope they encourage and inspire you to seek new lands and explore new destinations. That being said, sometimes the complexity of travelling is associated with deciding upon suitable clothing. This is where Resort Wear brands come in.
In the last few years, there have been some great resort wear brands making their foray into the fashion scene, and I really consider that a sort of a blessing because not only do these brands specialise in clothing that is functional and trendy, but in keeping their offering small the brands are able to focus on creating well made, functional products that are available all through the year, irrespective of seasons.
It all contributes to finding out what suits me and makes me genuinely happy!
We photographed this look whilst away in Goa. There were old buildings in beautiful colour combinations that camouflaged while adding their own aesthetic brush to the crumbling walls… and even a few derelict ones with untended gardens looked sublime and tasteful. There was something magical about those buildings painted in different shades, we felt they harmonised well with the surroundings and broke the monochrome frequency of our lives. Time truly stood still in that part of Goa and we embraced the leisurely pace of life. It was blissful, and though quiet and slow-paced, our days were complete.
This beautifully fluid maxi dress was gifted to me by a lovely couple who own a local boutique in Goa. I found that this look worked really well out there. The fabric is a soft, lightweight cotton that is comfortable in the heat as well as later in the day when it’s not as warm. What made it special was that it gave a peek into the personality of this warm couple whose penchant for travel played a role in the way they designed and created their ensembles which could make a statement wherever you went, whenever you wore them.
To conclude: I do love to dress up unconventionally once in a while {read: add a bit of boho to my style}, especially during summer, and this warm blue tie-dye ensemble is just me ~ though it is unapologetically daring. 🙂
