Kerala born Lekha Rajeev is a creative, contemporary and funky fashion designer with an out and out mod outlook.Influenced by her stint in the field abroad, she is for bold experimenting when it comes to design and believes that fashion is all about having fun all the time.Creator of the high street fashion label Peekri, here’s what she has to offer on high end fashion:
Select colours that suit your skin tone.
Wear silhouettes that complement your body shape. (Do not wear extra long skirts if you are short, unless you are pairing it with extra high heels of course!)
Do invest in a pair of good skinny jeans - dark denim - for this season. They go great with kurtas / kurtis and t-shirts.
Short dresses with tights (footless) are brilliant for summer.
Accessorise with funky bangles or a cool bag. But don’t overdo it.
Stay clear from the OTT (Over the top). For example, if you’re wearing a sequined top, resist wearing it with a sequined skirt.
Big faux pas - Denims with print / embroidery / tie and dye effects - always keep denim clean and classic.
Over-matching. A blue outfit does not call for blue bangles, blue footwear, blue handbag, blue earrings, a blue flowery hairclip and blue eye shadow.
Avoid too many frills and flounces in one outfit… unless you’re under five.
Do not try too hard to copy star styles. Celebrities usually have stylists who work very hard to get their look just right. Chances are trying to copy the look will mess it up.
What are you waiting for? Fashion your way to the top of the world!
