Christmas and New Year’s eve are around the corner and if you’re heading out for a party, you’re probably thinking about what you must carry. But what’s in style and how do you balance comfort with style?
Malaika Arora, founder member of The Label Life was at the store in Bandra where she took a quick masterclass with a couple of the customers. Quint Neon caught up with Malaika to ask her about all things style and inquire about the trends that women can refer to while dressing up this winter.
Style is Comfort
Malaika says she believes in comfort and specifically in being comfortable with your body type. She says there’s nothing like the ‘right’ body type and we should just completely and totally ‘own’ our bodies. Confidence is the best accessory after all!
And once you do that, you’re more than halfway there.
Trends for the Season
If you go by Malaika’s advice, a lot of shimmer and shine, tulle, corduroys, pastel colours are the way to go this party season. If you want to ensure you are comfortable throughout and you know you’ll be stepping out to party later, you must layer on, which she says ‘looks fantastic’.
Glam up Your Weekend Look
We know that by the time Saturday kicks in, you’re done with the week. But say you want to hang out with friends and have a party to attend in the evening - it’s a Saturday night after all - then Malaika has a simple tip for you.
Wear a simple dress. Let’s say this one.
Your day look could comprise a dress layered with a jacket and sneakers, which could make it hassle-free and semi-casual. In the evening, you can just replace those sneakers with a pair of heels and take off the jacket, if you like.
With all these simple tips and tricks, you’ll be all set for Christmas and New Year’s eve if you’re stepping out or staying in!
