.Camo.

Hey guys!

2014 is in full swing and as we uncover the fashion trends there is no way we can ignore the camouflage or the camo. Its been around for years, never fully disappearing. Infact, Vogue magazine picked up on the use of camo print in terms of fashion as early as 1943. There is a sort of love-hate relationship with this print. Its either the flavour of the month or the ultimate fashion faux-pas. Even though the print has a masculine and tough vibe, it totally works for both men and women. It is now being in re-interpreted at a large scale, getting a modernised and chic make over. Its a rough-and-tumble situation with the fashion addicts of the world putting their own crazy spin to this trend.

Camo is the perfect way to give an outfit a little edginess. But it can be tricky to style if you're just jumping on the bandwagon. My main tip would be to start small. Let the print be only one part in your outfit. I've paired my shorts with a black sweater and black boots. To bring a little extra to the outfit I put on my teal socks and pulled them enough to just show a peek of colour. A very comfortable and versatile outfit, you can wear this anywhere you fancy!

Outfit Details:

Black Sweater - Forever 21

Camo Shorts - Thrifted (Sarojini Nagar, New Delhi)

Black Boots -  Forever 21

Teal Socks - Cotton World

Aviators - Ray-Ban

.Winter Blues.

Hey guys!!!

 We're back this time with a new post. All about winter blues. Blue is a very versatile colour. Expecially in winters since we tend to gravitate towards darker colours. Blue in that case can be a life saver, so many shades to choose from!

This particular outfit is my winter staple. I love pulling out dresses from my summer/spring wardrobe and paring them with blazers, jackets and adding stockings for unshaved legs (come on all of us hate it during the winters). Sneakers are another fun element to pair with dresses, since it gives your outfit an edge. You can always dress the outfit up. Just put on a pair of heels, exchange the sling for a clutch, slap on a bright lipstick and you're good to go!

Outfit Details:
Blazer: DIY (I used to wear this in school )
Skater dress: Forever 21
Sling bag: Borrowed ( Mum's)
Shoes: Converse
Sunglasses: Thrifted (Colaba Causeway, Mumbai)

Hopefully you guys enjoyed the post and it helps you in the future. Keep in touch with us throught our facebook page www.facebook.com/SisterMash and tweet us at @becauseunicorns and @gunjanrathore

.Winter Florals.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

We hope 2014 is a year filled with happiness, love, travel and all the good things in life. We wish you all the luck! Hope you bought in the New Year surrounded by loved ones.
We’re back in the New Year with a new post all about winter florals. Yes, florals in the winters!! It’s hard to believe, right?  Floral prints have been one of the leading trends this season. Very popular throughout the runways across the world.

Now the thing is I wasn’t very fond of this particular pair of pants. I got them as a gift and you know how it is. They stayed in the back of my closet for the longest time until I decided my resolutions for this year. One of them happens to be to try and use the rest 80% of my closet instead of the usual 20%. And that’s how this outfit came about. And guess what, I think I'm in love with the pants. In this outfit, I’ve paired the pants with a solid black sweater and brown strappy heels. I went with the one solid colour for the top because I feel the pants are loud and the black helps in toning it down.  And I went for the brown heels to break the monotony of the black in the outfit.

Outfit Details:

Black sweater - Forever 21

Floral pants - Honey

Brown heels - South Ex, New Delhi (I rattled my brain hard on this one and I just can't remember the name of the shop)

Bow sling - Stolen from the bestie! (Forever New though)
Arm candy - Thrifted (Colaba Causeway,Mumbai)

Hopefully I’ll be able to break out of my black clothes ‘shell’ in 2014! It's really hard guys! :(

New Years Eve's Glam: Part II

Hey Guys!

I'm back with the second part of our new years series. Can you believe it's almost 2014!? 2013 went by so fast. No worries let us welcome 2014 with lots of happiness and joy. And of course in style! I'm super excited for 2014. I hope you have an amazing one.

New years for me all about dancing and spending the last night of the year with your family and having a jolly time. During this time we need to keep our clothes comfy and stylish at the same time. How do we do that? Pick a dress in a solid colour, as i have in black. Pair it with a very different coloured blazer or jacket. Always remember to add a statement piece to catch others eyes. Another tip for all you dance-o-holics out there, please please remember to carry a pair of separate flats if you plan on wearing high heels, save your feet the torture! I seriously love this outfit and plan on wearing it this new years.

Outfit Details:

Olive green jacket - Thrifted 

Black maxi - Forever 21

Black bow open toe wedges - Tresmode

Black and gold necklace - Thrifted (Colaba Causeway)

Rings - Thrifted (various)

I hope this helps you all tweet us your photos at @becauseunicorns and @gunjanrathore. Keep in touch with us through our Facebook page (like and share please!) or email us at sistermash@gmail.com.

New Year Eve's Glam : Part I

Hey guys!

How excited are you for New Years eve? Are your plans set?! What are you planning to wear? Yes, I'm aware the last day of the year can get a little overwhelming. But don't worry Sister Mash is here to help you out. I'm here with 2 different outfits which can give you ideas to look drop dead gorgeous without much fuss. A very happy new year in advance and hope you guys have an amazing time!

This outfit has all the elements for being fun, outgoing and vivacious. Even though this outfit is all black, it is very flattering. The accessories and the shoes add colour to the outfit and succeed in lifting the outfit. This outfit is perfect if you're planning to dance the night away (like I am), just remember to carry a pair of cute flats to save your feet from all the pain! 

Outfit Details:

Black top - Thrifted (Sarojini Nagar, New Delhi)
Pencil skirt -  Forever 21
Red peep toes - Tresmode
Necklace -  Thrifted (Linking Road, Bandra)

Black clutch -  Forever New
Accessories - Thrifted (Colaba Causeway)

Moving on to the next outfit, its more relaxed and laid back but in no way less stylish. Its a perfect outfit for an intimate get together at a friend's or casual party. Its comfortable and very accessible. You can have fun with your hair, just plait it to the side or make a low romantic bun. If you're going to dance just lose the jacket and let  your hair down. Colours in the outfit are very fall/winter. Don't forget to use make up that complement these colours. Replace the heels with booties and the outfit becomes biker chic! You're bound to be the talk of the town. Go have fun!

Outfit Details:

Sequined tank top - Thrifted (Sarojini Nagar, New Delhi)
Black jeans - Thrifted (Linking Road, Bandra)

Jewel Tones

Hey Guys!!

So we're here with another outfit post!

It's going to be a fall one. And if you're wondering why, I'm going to say to you that Gunjan and I live in Mumbai and we're originally from Delhi. You can take our word when we say its not winter here yet! Having said that lets move on to our post. :)

I think one main important that we should keep in mind during fall and winter is layering. Layering helps us in making better use of our wardrobe. Certain pieces that are spring or summer can be easily incorporated into your fall and winter wardrobe. This outfit does exactly that! I'm wearing a green jewel toned skater dress with a crochet top over it. The black crochet and the stockings help in breaking the monotony of the green. The stockings makes this outfit look uber chic and if you are living in Mumbai like us, you can convince yourself of the non-existent cold! Jewel tones also work amazing during this time of the year, they are amazing as accent pieces.

Outfit Details:

Green Skate Dress - Thrifted
Black Crochet Top - Thrifted
Grey Stockings - Marks and Spencers
Spiked black ballet flats- Ginger Monochrome bag - Stalkbuylove.com

Hope you guys enjoyed the post! We've got loads in store so you can keep in touch with us through our Facebook page (like and share please!) or email us at sistermash@gmail.com.

. Fall Fashion .

Hey pretty peeps!

Hope you're doing well. I know we haven't been around for quite a while but we're back and raring to go!!

Fall happens to be my favourite season. Since Mumbai doesn't get much of a winter, fall just becomes an extended season which makes me a very happy person for more reasons than one! For this post, I roped in one of my closest friends, Shreya Shetty, who also happens to be an amazing photographer! Her work is beautiful and she inspires me all the time. You can see more of her work here. (First collaboration! YAY!)
  

Fall fashion can be pretty versatile and its just so much fun! You can layer up without dying of heat and look absolutely fabulous. Jewel tones work wonders for fall, you don't need to go full on but accents here and there really help getting an outfit together. This outfit is a classic combination of blue denims and white shirt and to give it a fall twist I've added a coral stole along with chocolate boots. The bag is neutral, the accessories are mix of ethnic and modern to keep it interesting.

I am wearing:

White Shirt - Cotton World
Blue Denims - Clothes Rack
Coral Stole - Thrifted (Colaba Causeway)
Boots - Thrifted (Delhi)
Leather Bag -Scored at the Station Gift shop in Mhow Cantt
Jewelry - Thrifted (various)
