Retail Therapy


You’ve heard this before, Normcore. You’ve certainly seen the trend being embraced across the board with both documented street style looks and appearance of old school, fuss-free designs, sportswear inspired clothes, sneakers, slides and birkenstocks on runways. Heck, if Moschino referenced Fast Food pop culture, Chanel took us to the supermarket and Celine gave us the furry Birkenstock’esque sandal. There’s no escaping Normcore!

So essentially, while Normcore involves a departure from high fashion and working around normal people clothes, clothes that blend in with those around you like slouchy jeans, basic tees and sneakers, don’t for a second confuse the trend with sloppiness or frumpiness. It might be middle-America aesthetic but one that is put together with great though. Non-descript pieces that come together in the end to be something both distinctive and flattering.

Intrigued? Here’s our quick cheat-sheet to Normcore. Three basic, but hardly basic looks to get you started on the trend.

In Threes


For a song launch (from her upcoming movie), Sonakshi was photographed in Pepe denims, a white tank and plaid shirt. White high-tops finished out her look. Later that evening, she was photographed outside an eatery where she she seemed to have swapped the shirt for a white light knit cardi. Keeping all else same, she added a black cross-body to finish out her look.

More recently, Sonakshi was photographed at a movie screening to which she wore black leggings and a pastel knit. Black cross-body and Tod’s loafers finished out her look.

Of her three recent appearances, it was easy to pick the look from movie screening as the more favorable one.

In Harsh Harsh


Wearing a Harsh Harsh body-con dress, Gauahar taped her television show’s newest episode. Wearing her hair back in a ponytail, she finished out the look with Outhouse jewelry, a bright lip and nude ankle-strap pumps. Like what you see?

P.S: See Tanisha wear this dress (in a different color) here.

(Un)Covered


For its bridal issue, Vogue put a Manish Arora Couture clad Lisa Haydon on their cover. Lisa looked hawt; love the cover! Sure, some of you might ask how is this appropriate for a bridal issue?! Remember this is Vogue! And this makes-you-stop-in-your-tracks cover is the best we’ve seen from them in the recent times.
