Platinoir by Mehak & Ashish SS’16 collection

Fashion March 29, 2016

Team ChicLifeByte was recently invited to Delhi Club House for the launch of Platinoir by Mehak & Ashish, being new in the industry, we were honestly not expecting something great…but when we saw the collection we were in for a surprise. The place was buzzing with mannequins wearing sequins on pastels which made for the perfect Spring Summer outfits. It wasn’t just the outfits, it was the whole look- even shoes to go with the outfits!!

The brand was actually launched three months back through a soft launch for family and friends. Platinoir is designed for the coolest girl in the room who can pull off a chic yet glamorous outfit, it’s for someone who is fashion-forward and has no inhibitions. The designs are a combination of individuality, classy and urban essence with comfort and versatility. The SS’16 collection could easily be confused for couture, for the drapery and intricate embellishments and appliqués are just short of a dream – design and craftsmanship both inextricably intertwined.

A Bit Of Me…. a heaven for accessories

Fashion February 6, 2016

What is the best way to glam up an outfit? I am sure we all have different ways but what I personally swear by is accessories.

Recently while surfing the net I stumbled upon a website www.abitofme.in and believe me I was awestruck with the never ending options of Neck Pieces, Earrings, Bracelets, Brooches, Scarf Holders, Waist Chains, Head Pieces, Anklets, Body Chains, Rings. From beads to pearls, they had it all in the finest of designs. The best part was that they did have a great collection of accessories for women but they also have a great collection for men from Bow Ties, Cufflinks, Lapel Pins, Tie Pins, Collar Buttons to Party Ties and Suspenders
