We manage to get the right outfit for the right occasion, but sometimes when it comes to jewellery, we often forget to look for the appropriate piece. We pick something that already exists in our closet and hope to make it work. As an accessory, the right jewellery has the power to make or break your look.
I used to be a jeans girl. But for the last few months, I have been rather distant from this particular clothing category. Maybe it’s the lockdown and the heat, or the fact that post 30, the act of pulling on tight anything is tedious. But, it’s been six weeks and I have not donned a single pair of ‘fitted’ two-legged denim bottoms.
Before we get into this, let me tell you where I stand. If online shopping got any more convenient, I wouldn’t enter a mall. If online shopping were a sport, I’d be a gold medalist. Now what part of the following don’t you like?
You get to sit in bed, eat cake and browse through the latest collections.
Even though the world is more connected today, this current pandemic has made us look inwards, at ourselves and our country.

We live in unique times. Thanks to social media, being a celebrity isn’t that difficult anymore. And being a designer, even easier. However, building a brand? Now that’s a whole other story. Be it a designer label or an influencer profile, launching (and sustaining) a brand takes a lot of time, effort and most of all unwavering commitment!

Whether you call it a tote, a hold-all or a giant handbag; we can all agree that it’s a boon to have at least one of these in your life.

Ever since it’s inception, Warp ‘n Weft has been the brand synonymous with Benarasi weaves. They’re known for their sustainable processes as well as conserving handloom traditions and it’s safe to say, each and every one of their pieces is a labor of love and meticulously made.
