Summer Colorama


"Colours are the essence of style. Without colours fashion would be just another bland subject that the elites converse about."


It seems that neutral and bright colours will be setting the trend this season.

Tangerine tango, a bright orange is the numero uno hue for boldness.  Orange will be so dominant; you can choose from tops to flip-flops every other outfit in orange.

Lemon yellow is the colour for pleasant days. Wear it with a white skirt and yellow flip-flops. Or keep it cool with grey pants and shoes. Get bolder and match it with the next colour: Bellflower. It is the shade of purple for this summer. Get tee shirts and shrugs in this shade.

Get vibrant with cobalt & lilac. You can make this work on almost everything, dresses to frocks to tees to shirts. Printed shirts in these colours worn with dark pants will look great. Sum it up with bright melon bags.

Rosy red is the best option for cosmetics and summer clothing. Make it bold with belts and shoes in this colour. Experiment it with contrast colour stoles and derive your own street style. Next up is sodalite blue; it goes well with all the colours in the palette. Get a floral print halter neck and comfy flats in this colour and wear it with the tactical blue-green colour cockatoo, pin it with a light green coloured bag.

Colours such as cream, light pink, coral & peach are to be worn with brighter pastels & tones, order some pants in these colours and top it with dark shirts and you are set for the whole summer.

White, being the ideal colour for summer, would look simple and elegant paired with black. Get some dotted shirts in this combination and liven up. Wear black with Nude hue, a distinctive colour which will be trending. It is versatile and would bring out a unique look. 

Balancing is the key; regardless of what you pick, the right balance of colours will do the magic. So head out and plan your style with colours this summer.  Play cool, misty, romantic, twisty summer with colours mounted right on your stylo!

Laptop Bags Typo


Often said, immensely followed –What you hold onto, pretty much defines the way you carry yourself.  Take a decade-long turn, and today we have a tech-savvy world, with almost 15-50 year old, carrying a laptop and tablet, blending into the technology quickly.

We all have our fears, finicky lobes and muddled-zones of the way we carry and manage our laptops in our routine. Yet again, it is easy to make an error in choosing the right bag. Here are some cool and appropriate suggestions to carry your laptop, in your very own Fashion! Talk about carrying laptop to workplace: the most regular ones are the carry cases with single-shouldered straps, often referred as Messengers. These bags have multiple compartments and pockets for keeping your accessories, documents safely. Unless, you want to double-safe your laptop, we opt for Laptop Sleeves. Laptop Sleeves are compact, sleek and simple, mostly made of lightweight elastic material for ease. A new trend in style, one can carry a sleeve in hand bags, backpack or any of your regular bags!

The most common and multi-utility accessory is the Backpack. Laptop Backpacks are generally designed with separate compartments for the Laptop Notebooks, accessories and extra space for other mundane objects. Backpack often becomes a life-saver: if you are planning a night stay at friend’s and rushing to work the following day. These are extremely comfortable and easy to use and they match with every outfit.

Another type of laptop bag is the ‘Wheeled Laptop Bag’. Specifically designed for the purpose of travel, these are regular travel bags armed with laptop compartments. The best features for the uniqueness of these bags are their add-on features like guaranteed shock-proof layer, another layer for water resistance and evergreen polish.

Quick Look up, before you choose a skin for your Laptop:
  • Material should be water-resistant, unless you want to fat yourself by stuffing the bag inside your shirt during a sudden downpour.
  • Thumb rule – The bag should not weigh more than your Laptop/Notebook.
  • Pick what suits your style and whack. If you come from a fashion work scenario, you are mostly free to pick vivid bags of any style.
  • The regular pointers are to look for utility, style, trend, surroundings and most importantly your outfit.  
Let the technology, hang another persona to your style.
