* Budget Chic ~ Tassle Necklace *

I don't exactly remember where i copied this pic from(maybe Glamour or Instyle mag) which i quite often do for inspiration files, I seriously wanted that tassle necklace! It seems so perfect for a black dress or even white in my case, and when i came across this tassle necklace there were no second thoughts about it. Though i must admit dupes are never as good as the originals, i still love to own a dupe than not having at all!! You see one can't afford everything in the world *.*

And when i found this on Urban Touch i had to have it....

My Tassle Necklace ~

Price ~ 100 INR
Available(was) ~ Urban Touch


So what do you think??? Do you prefer originals or compromise with dupes at times???

Mango ~ Bracelet Loops Dupe

I am kinda stalker when it comes to brands like Mango. I love their clothes and jewelry and esp the styling done on the mannequins put up in the display. So like always i kept a track of what kinda jewelry i wanna buy(some day) and this particular piece of jewelry impressed me. Well i remember wearing something similar as a teen, so saved it to my favs thinking someday i will definitely own. Just few months when i totally forgot about it, i saw this bracelet in a local beauty shop. 

I was like give me that first before anyone sees it...ssshhhhhh!!!! My friend didn't find it much lovely but she didn't knew then that its exactly a dupe of the 'Bracelet Loops' one can find in Mango online store.

~ Black Butterfly ~

I somehow liked 'Black Swan' movie alot, and when i saw this ring it just reminded me of that... only wished it to be a swan instead of butterfly but nevertheless even this is so lovely...

So to begin the story, I have been to a local beauty shop and to my surprise they had some good collection of rings. Apart from nailpolishes, rings are next fav of mine...

So going through them, i made myself a bit choosy for few mins and picked only what i thought 'i just have to have them'. So out of two, the following pic shows one, the Black Butterfly ~

Priced @ 90 INR, this was a steal for me.

Nail Juice 38 Nail Enamel ~ Models Own Hedonist Dupe

I was fortunate, my friend out of blue got me a set of nail colors from a brand called 'Nail Juice'. Its our very own Indian brand, Mfg by Lips & Tips Cosmetics, Raigad and Mktd by Vcare Lifestyle Pvt Ltd, New Delhi.

Well these colors are available on Snapdeal and what thrilled me most was the price. Not pricey and very fun colors to try. Once in a while i do try the local brands for the sheer pleasure of having a unique color or style on my nails. 

Okay now on to the main part, when i read the review of Modelsown Hedonist Nail Polish by lovely Lily and saw the swatches, i was like 'i want it, i need it' song in my head... yeah ofcourse there's some song with that line *.*

But wasn't sure if it would suit me, my nails like Lily's. And besides they are not available in India, so it was a dropped wish....

And when i saw this color in the lot, i literally jumped with joy. Did it suit me, my nails???

Check for yourself..

 

Here's the swatches ~

What I Love  ~

* Neons are in Fashion and so are Corals, and this color besides being so cheap and easy on pocket,

its not too much into the face.

* Suddenly i am in love with ~ Neons and Corals ~

* Application is easy and smooth, 2 coats coverage was quite opaque, yet like usual i did 3 *.*

* Perfect for the Indian Summer thats on..

* Its a Pinky coral with undertones of light Red. Hard to capture the true color as its very neon.

* Its a bright and summery color, very apt for day and the late evening summer parties..

* Above all its seriously a dupe for Modelsown Hedonist, whats more to know to love??

 

So do you love this shade?? Do you love neons and corals??

Whats your fav neon/coral shade???

Thanks for stopping by, till next time.......

Re-Fashioned Earrings ~ Coloring Stones DIY

~ Earrings before the makeover ~

Its not that i don't like these white stone earrings but for quite a while now i have been looking for earrings that match my new Salwar Kameez. Its a gorgeous hot pink color and i don't seem to find anything that matches in color or even close to it. Well am a very choosy person and compromising at times is pretty hard for me. So i came up with this DIY to give an instant makeover to my old pair of earrings. It just gave the exact shade i have been looking for!!

This DIY project is for Earrings, Necklaces, Bracelets, Rings or any piece of jewelry with stones, just grab a nail polish of your choice and get going...

How to ~

Its easy-peasy, start coloring the stones and let them air-dry.

Few Pointers to Remember ~

* Do a trial test before actually coloring the stones. Its important as the nail color might look different on stones.

Ex - The nail polish I picked is actually a Red Color with fine glitter but when swatched on stones it showed up as gorgeous hot pink. The same color i was looking for!!

* Depending upon the shade a single coat of nail color gives, decide if one coat is good enough or if you want to apply second coat. 

I went for two coats, single coat was sheer for me.

* Make sure there's enough drying time between two coats.

Final look ~

Now its all ready to be worn *.*

Isn't that gorgeous pink??? So is my dress.... 

Will do a separate post on how i wore my DIY earrings...

Hope this inspired you to do some DIY project this weekend....

P.s - Now, Lipglossaffairs is on Bloglovin and Networked Blogs too, would love if you follow me there too *.*
