Chic & Stylish: Professor Style Diaries

Tanuka Ghoshal

With the campus warming up to the placement season, we couldn't help but stop and stare at the dapper yet chic business suit adorned by our very own Marketing and Consumer Behavior Professor!

This season, the foreseeable future, is all about the supple and soft business suits- with its undeniable sensual appeal. The main attraction of this business suit is the fabric- light enough to be worn with a sheer top and simultaneously warm enough for the winter months! The peacock blue shirt seems like a classic fit with the jet- black attire, sending groovy vibes to fall in step with the fashion.

Honestly, nothing feels so right, right now!

While shooting with the Prof on a sunny Mohali afternoon, we couldn’t help but ask her about her own style statement!

“I have developed my style statement through experimentation (not all of which worked!), and have finally realized that the way to go for me is to rely on the experts! So I have picked up essential basics from brands like Ann Taylor, Zara, Banana Republic and Marks & Spencer’s that I mix and match, which works for me. I probably border on the conservative in terms of dressing, and perhaps I should experiment more!”

A much loved professor who really brought her best business style to each class - we will miss you dearly Prof!

Leather Attack: We can’t drop the leather just yet!

No longer the purview of those wearing zip hoodies and oversized sunglasses, this dark-rinsed leather bag from FabIndia, still has a decidedly fashion flair. The neutral tone would make it compatible with nearly everything in the wardrobe. While we start narrowing our style to the next season, this style accessory would shine throughout the year. Timely, but timeless!

This must have could literally carry everything- a towel, a book or perhaps even a couple of beers! While we wonder how we lived without this must- have bag, this definitely should be the newest addition to anyone’s closet!

The Romantics

With the festive season closing in, this plain yet delectable chudidaar- kurta would be a perfect match for anyone!

In the true white and gold, this exquisitely designed chudidaar- kurta can be paired with a gauzy dupatta to give it a heavy look. The final result being refreshingly soft and pretty! The hot pink chudidaar adds the extra sparkles, complimenting the entire appeal. The beautiful embroidery makes the colours look luxe and makes us focus on maximalism!

Beauty Tip of the Month:

Getting the recommended eight hours of sleep a night will not only help you look refreshed, but it will also replenish and rehydrate skin. Not getting a good night’s sleep can result in dull skin and clogged pores. So make sure you get your eight hours to look fresh and stay fresh!
