With the clouds hovering over us, and not many showers to speak of, it is easy to get lured into a false sense of security that monsoon is yet not upon us. But rain does not give prior notice. Ladies, it is always a wise idea to stock up on some bright colours and breezy fabrics which are easy to dry off. Boutiques in Ahmedabad have begun stocking up for the monsoon.Most people get angry at the rains primarily because it disrupts many of their best laid plans. But that is where fashion steps in to save your day. Let pastels give way to cheerful colours and sleek sandals give way to trendy rain boots. Monsoon is all about having fun, the season of rains is about living life to the fullest. Tattavam Ahmedabad brings you some of the best ways to step out trendy in this season of rain and thunder.
Get a Funky Umbrella
Add a little zing to your walk this monsoon, add a bright umbrella to your accessories. Not only will they help keep you dry, they are also incredibly useful when in a pinch. One swing of a steel umbrella can stun any man, enough to allow you get away time.
Choose a bold coloured umbrella, maybe even with bright print on it. Cartoon characters may look a little school-girlish, but a dripping Snoopy is a guaranteed inducement to smile.
Get a Cool Raincoat
Another trend that is coming back in a big way is the rain trench coat. It can be worn over your regular trendy attire like short skirts or dresses. Opt for a belt to nip that waist in and help complement your figure.
There are various bright coloured trench coats available, if not you can always get it from tattavam’s customised collection.
Experiment with Fabric
Allow this monsoon to help you set new trends, experiment as much as you can with different fabrics. Crepe, Chiffon and georgette in a multiple shades of azure green, or the dull-milky blue of a calm se or even bright yellows can look amazing in this season. A short, many-hued dress is a must have this season. For those that like their colours bold, follow that approach in your clothes this season. Men can try colours like green, slate grey and deep shades of brown and burgundy to help them break the monotony of black and blues.
Wear Rain-Worthy Footwear
The right footwear may just be the most important attire this season. Avoid wearing shoes or sandals made from leather as this may result in you ruing the loss of expensive footwear. Instead, go for a simple pair of sandals. Rubber flip-flops or slingbacks can also work quite well.
Remember to keep it fashionable and colourful, that is all. High boots are an in thing this season. Match them with your umbrella or raincoat and you have the perfect wet-proof attire to stand out in a crowd.
The Right Hair and Make up
Make sure your hair behaves this monsoon. Tie it up in a neat pumped pony to give it that neat, fresh look. The humid weather can be an absolute pain to manage make up. Keep it simple. Leave your runny mascaras and smudgy kohl and opt for bright hues for your eyes. Cream based eye shadows are usually waterproof and easy to use. Also choose to go for bold colours for your lips. A perfume is crucial. You do not want to smell like a soggy cat when drenched. Floral or citrus are the perfect accompaniments for this weather.
So make sure that you are at your trendiest best when you step out this monsoon. Come rain or shine, fashion must prevail.
