You know my wrap-up post from 30 for 30, last week? Well, if you do then no need of clicking on the link but if you do not then you might wanna check it first else you wouldn't get what I am going to say!
So you know I asked everyone to let me know their least and most favorite look out of the 30 that I had posted. While most of you were very sweet and showered me with compliments, few actually took the dare plunge to mention their least favorite look. And I was glad that they did! What got my attention was that while one person said, say for example #99 was their least favorite then someone else said that it was, in fact, their most favorite of the lot. And that happened more than once. [Go check it, I am not lying! :)]
I cannot help but deduce that when everyone is leaving their feedback or criticism what they are actually doing is just sharing their 'preference' and how they would [or would not] have worn it! I get to learn a little about your like/dislike and it doesn't necessarily mean you are disapproving of my outfit. Just to make it clear I am not looking for approval either. Clearly I approve of my own outfit and that is why I am ready to post it [put if out there!] for public scrutiny.
Anyhoo, I am simply amused by the fact that how the same outfit rated so drastically different on different people meter. And that is a GOOD thing. That's what makes blogging and the feedback so interesting. Almost a year into fashion blogging and I am finally getting the hang of how the 'comments-drama' works!
We are indeed having a sunny winters here in Texas,
but if the weather reports are to be trusted that is about to change tonight, bringing in the freeze!

P.S. Welcome new readers! I always try and check out everyone's blogs and connect as much as I can but some of you do not have blogs, only profiles so I cannot reply to your questions or respond. I would use this opportunity to thank you for your lovely and thoughtful comments. I appreciate them a lot. I really do!

ReplyDeleteLoving the shoes and the sweater colour!! :)
ReplyDeleteeveryone's entitled to their opinion and obviously there would be differences in it
ReplyDeleteand you are absolutely right that no one is looking for approval when they post a pic but it does feel good to receive compliments :)
I want to see a full pic of the outfit from the front
love love your shoes
love these shoes! and i love diff comments makes me realise how differently ppl perceive the same thing! :)
ReplyDeleteTo cut the long story short,'Different strokes for different folks'..I dont remember judging my least favorite 'cuz I felt all were immaculately coordinated ! Kudos to u,girl!
ReplyDeleteHow abt following each other?
hey tanvii.. i have been following your blog for a few months now.. I follow many fashion blogs looking for tips/ideas but yours is the best of all... Though u live in the US most of ur looks are very modest and at the same time chic and classy! they all have a little bit of 'You' and 'India' in them.. which makes it easy for me to wear the same kind of style coz am living in India (Hyderabad).. you know the kind of conservative society we have, and the "restrictions" as to what we can wear out on the roads.. but thanks to you, am a whole new ME :D which is awesome.. so a BIG THANKS!
ReplyDeleteno wonder your cloths are always fab-est!... today i loved ur hair!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty tanvi. Love the sweater!
ReplyDeleteLovee the color!! There's so much "jaan" in it!! And the shoes are the cherry on the top (well at the bottom...but you get my drift right?)
ReplyDeleteYou do justice to the skinnies!
Tanvii! Louve your shoes! :) Gawd! You have great picks woman :)
ReplyDeleteKeep blogging! :)
I've learnt that as well: when people leave their opinions on an outfit, they share how they would wear it. And I love that because then I'm inspired to try what they say as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous of your sunny winter!! It looks like it's about to snow really heavily.
Amazing pictures though. I love the colour of the cardi, and those shoes are so incredible!!
Came across your blog through suruchi's blog.. Loved it :)
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say that the shoes are amazing :)
ReplyDeleteAlso loved the peek a boo of the floral print in the second pic... though i would have loved to see the front profile...
Amazing shots on the sunny day.
ReplyDeleteWe too are enjoying SUN to eat...
Roasted peanuts
Oranges,guavas
Veg.Pakoras etc.
Hair looking awsome.(Touchwood)
Those shoes are STUNNING! Super sexy! It is warm here in Savannah, too, ah, bring on the Christmas spirit, lol! XX!
ReplyDeleteLove your shoes!!
ReplyDeleteI only just discovered the wrap-up post and left my opinion. Some people seem to be scared of saying they dislike something. But why? I find constructive (civilized!)criticism a lot more valuable than comments that go "Love it! Visit my blog!", because it shows that the commenter really is interested in your post.
Just shows that everyone likes different things and style is such a personal thing. There is no wrong or right, just personal preference. I love the shoes, they are fab.
ReplyDeleteWow love the color orange!! U looking really pretty.
ReplyDeleteOh to dream of warm sunny winters:) love your shoes!
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday
Ciao

ReplyDeleteLove the rust sweater!! :))
P.S.: Thanks for all the lovely compliments! You are a rockstar!!!
Love the look! and of course everyone will have their own opinions---that is why there are billions of humans inhabiting the earth, LOL! Good to know that it doesn't shake your opinion on what you wear---we like it a la tanvi and wouldn't want to change a thing! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so beautiful, especially in that last photo. Another stunning outfit!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you had people dislike some of your outfits. I sincerely thought they all were adorable. ;)
Winter and Texas..No way. The concept of Winter is missing in Texas especially southern part of Texas.
ReplyDeletelove ur shoes :)
ReplyDeletei like all ur outfits of "30 for 30"..no kidding!! u have great style :)
Absolutely fashion/style means different things to different people. I love the color of your cardi. Suits you well.
ReplyDeleteLooking like a MODEL! I just took some pics sitting like that. I love everything about all the pics especially the MODEL!

Great outfit! So jealous of the nice weather -- it's so cold in NY!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the warmth while it lasts, Tanvi - allowing you to wear summery outfits like this.
ReplyDeleteOmg the cutest shoes ever..loving the tie-ups!! And I'm so jealous of your sunny winters..I haven't seen the sun in like ages :(
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is super cute! And the orange and the shoes are sooo pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteYour experience with feedback proves what I learned early on in blogging -- that taste is subjective. Women vary a lot in what they like and dislike.
ReplyDeleteI assumed most women agreed on fashion-styles and conventions, but discovered that isn't true. Learning it made me feel more free in making my own fashion choices.
Wow! I think the first pic is one of my favorites of you of all time! You look so beautiful and natural. Love the outfit! <3
ReplyDeletexx rk
The outfit is super cute...love the bright orange! You're looking pretty :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I looove sunny winters!
All the best, though, for the freezing winters ahead!!
Mwaah!
Hey girl, I didn't get a chance to read this yet, because I need sleep, but you look adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love this look! first of all, the 3/4 jeans are super cute, and those shoes... oh, girl those shoes are killer. I love how they tie around the ankle.
ReplyDeletealso, I admire you for asking people to pick their least favorites... we typically put up photos in the hopes that we'll get warm and fuzzy compliments, so asking for criticism shows that you are very self-confident and strong.
Loving the shoes in this outfit. And still jealous of that sunshine!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love this outfit! It's so fun! And the shoeees! I could steal them from you! :p
ReplyDeleteyour style is always so fun :) :)
