6 Fuchsia Must-haves



Revlon's superheroes in cute packaging and all, the invincible Revlon Lip Butters. Tone them down as lip balms, exaggerate them as shiny irresistible lipsticks; choose your pick. A little birdie tells me that Maybelline has launched their own version of these. While they're getting ready to launch in India, you pretty girl, you should own Revlon's version in Lollipop shown above. I also own Candy Apple in this, and I'm certainly loving Lollipop more.


Statement neckpieces have become so customary an accessory, that if you want to actually make a statement out of it, you'd need it to be forceful and evident, to add a whole new dimension to the outfit; or blah! it goes. While a monochrome fuchsia variant does the trick, a slightly understated one, like the one above, works like sparkles. See where I wore it last here.


This NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa is quite possibly the sine qua non of the Fuchsia Hitlist (if that exists) if you think you have just the right amount of Fuchsia in your wardrobe. If you still don't have it, hop over to Urbantouch as quick as a bunny.


A  Fuchsia Umbrella! Yes Winter's not over yet, and spring / summer is not even a speck close by. But you have every excuse to get yourself this blatant pink version, whenever and wherever you see it. We're just prepping up for the rest of the year! 

Bought from F.C. Road, Deccan, Pune for a mere Rs. 150. Steal deal!


Pumps / shoes in Fuchsia. No one denies that. These are an old pair from Carlton London I'm still not over.


Last but not the least, the NYX Cream Blush in Hot Pink. It looks like a daring wild pink; but fret not, it's just being all conceited. Wears like a soft bright pink on the cheeks, and looks nothing like OTT.

Which ones are on your list?

What's in my tote?


This fall is inspiring me to wear all of my favorite colors. Burgundy, deep red, grey and olive green. And whatever arm candy I carry with me, the following are the things I carry. Also, this is considering i have a sufficiently large tote and not a simple sling purse; I happen to carry the whole world in my tote. (And try to fit in a few continents when I'm carrying a sling. Bad joke.)


I keep changing my wallets / clutches very often, but this particular one i cannot just let go of. A sanitizer is another essential something I need to carry every time i go out. My purple contact lens case is another necessity I carry, in case i feel the need to take off my lenses. I've always felt that a statement ring can spruce up an understated outfit. Every time I go out, I keep a versatile ring handy, just in case.


Wallet / Clutch : Splash
Contact lens case : Claire's
Ring : Forever21


While a good set of shades are always indispensable, carrying a travel perfume always helps you feel fresh. This Dior is one of my favorites. Coin purses are knick-knacks I add to my bag, depending on my mood. Oh yes I'm crazy that way.


Shades : Aldo
Coin purse : Accessorize
Travel perfume : Dior


If shades are a necessity in Indian weather, so is my compact mirror. I often carry my 'currently-wearing' nail lacquer when i know the polish might chip off. I also carry two shades of lipsticks, a dark one and another natural colored; these serve the touch-ups in the day or in the evening. This particular moisturizing balm serves as a wonderfully soothing balm for my lips as well as my hands. Those iridescent rainbow colored bands are my absolute favorite!! They've got 'Made-for-fall' all printed over them. I'm so worried about losing them, it's not even funny.


Compact mirror: UK
Nail Lacquer: Maybelline
Lip colors: NYX lip cream in Antwerp, Colorbar lipstick in a red shade
Iridescent bands: Esta Accessories
Notebook: Bechain Nagri

And then comes the dual purpose card holder / coin purse, I just cannot get over the croc print. Bought from Hong Kong Lane, FC road, Pune for a mere 80 INR. Colorful pens and pen drives, they are all there somewhere tucked in safely.





One of my favorite pens. It's not a fancy brand, no, but it cost a good 400 INR something. Of course I had to buy it anyway.



What are you carrying in your tote this season? :)
