Thank you for your kind words on yesterday's post. I do know that it is a part of life and we have to move on ... I really appreciate your concern and best wishes. We are back to our usual dance-n-show (pun intended!) on the blog here. The show must go on, right?
So the title is the new 'item number' I have been obsessed with for months. What does it mean? Don't even ask! It means nothing. That's the beauty of our item numbers. They do not really have to mean anything. They just have to be catchy with some ethnic beats and killer moves. I have previously explained our country's obsession with item numbers here.

So what does the outfit has to do with the song? Again, nothing. That's the beauty of having your own blog, you can connect two unrelated things, just 'coz you want to! You see?
Though in the survey back in May, a couple of people asked for my take on Indo-Western outfits. This is would be one of the many I have already posted on the blog. Just for the new readers, here is the list of my previous posts inspired via Hindi Songs!

That skirt is so beautiful!
ReplyDeletelove it...you look gorgeous...
ReplyDeleteand sheila ki jawani is still my fav. item song:)
These item nos are killing me now. every months we get a new item no with crap words. Initially listening munni badnaam.. and sheila ki jawani was good but i am completely over from them.
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous in the pics. love the skirt, top and of-course heels.
Lovely, colorful, cheerful outfit. Am loving the whole look!!!
ReplyDeleteLast week for your chance to win the Lace Belt Giveaway
I love it even more when the Indian outfits could be twisted to a more western wear :)
ReplyDeleteI really like this skirt of yours! you wear it in such different ways everytime. Like much. I find this song so unrelated at every level that it becomes amusing then :)
ReplyDeleteLooking lovely! I love the skirt! And why would you want to give away such a fabulous tunic? Oh well... Good for the person buying it!
ReplyDeleteJalebi bai is my current craze too... 'coz it makes no sense at all!
That is such an incredibly stylish outfit, Tanvi. Love the colour clash. x

having lost my father recently, i really could not offer you any words, im still too vacant and hurt inside!!..however, i can understand what u must be going thru.
ReplyDeleteon the outfit side, the skirt s beautiful, i wish i had the body to carry off long skirts as i really love those long skirts of fabindia, but due to my short height, i look like a circus tent(thats what my family says so and i feel too!!
Lovely outfit! And i love your blog! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou are so beautiful! This outfit looks like it was MADE for you! I love the pops of yellow. It is so great to hear some other culture aspects of your life as well. Keep 'em comin!

Item songs!! I've always loved your take on them! :)
ReplyDeleteI like your skirt........& of course, your shoes!!! :))
this song does have a pretty cool beat. love your shoes!
ReplyDeleteYou look so yummy!And the result has been far better than the inspiration itself!I saw the video and it was so tacky!But you do polka dots and prints and bright colors and this whole 'item song' inspiration thing so well!
ReplyDeleteI love this mix of prints, Tanvi! The colors are all so bold and look great together!
ReplyDeleteThe tunic is gorgeous. And so are the shoes. Love the shoes!

I just read your post about your grandmother, sweetie. It's such a wonderful post and tribute to the wonderful woman she was. Thanks for sharing so openly.
ReplyDeleteOh a much lighter note, I'm obsessed with this song!!! Can't stop listening to it and of course I'm loving your skirt and tunic. You look gorgeous! xoxo
Beautiful. I love the shoes so much!
ReplyDeleteWow! You look adorable in all the prints and the sheer blouse. I am sorry about your Grandma. I only have one left myself, and I know it's gonna be hard to lose her...
ReplyDeleteim very sorry for your loss, sending you hugs! xx
ReplyDeletethe skirt is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTo folks who haven't seen an item number it must be puzzling! I get asked why all Bollywood movies are musicals??
ReplyDeleteYour version of Bollywood fashion is spot on. In fact it all looks very good together.
I adore your outfit! thanks for posting that video so fun...i would not have found it otherwise.
ReplyDeleteFantastic colors! Very beautiful dress!
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is really cute. I really like it when you have your hair up as well...
ReplyDeleteI adore your earrings I might invest in a pair like those this summer.

Wah wah what colours!!! That skirt is soooo pretty. Sadly item numbers are getting so super lame these days!!!! I haven't even seen the one you've talked about here!! Time to tune into MTV for a change and not just go to VH1 for music!
ReplyDeleteI always love how you incorporate your Indian heritage into some of your outfits. They are always so colourful. Oh, and don't we all love a bit of bollywood style dancing.

Wow i adore that skirt is wonderful love the colours. And it suits u very well kisses www.preppyfashionist.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI am sorry Tanvi.. but something like this I would see myself only in nightmare. That top is not classy at all. Neck up you still look good :)
ReplyDeleteI am fond of that song too. infact of all item numbers.
Will refrain from commenting on the Item Numbers. Love your skirt. Fabindia did some cool stuff in the past. Now, it's kind of sad.
ReplyDeleteTanvi, I love so many things about this outfit! The colors the textures, and THE SHOES!!! Yippeee!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother. It is so difficult to go thru that and I hope all the lovely comments lifted your spirits.
So sorry for your loss, always difficult to lose someone you love so much.
ReplyDeleteI love the top in your outfit and the skirt is so beautiful too.
Love your outfit!
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty and colorful!

Love the song....but the song is sure weird in an obvious manner! Mallika always chooses such songs.
ReplyDeleteLove your skirt Tanvi and I love that it's from 2006! One of the outfits I wore this past week is like 11 years old...with a few minor adjustments and changes it's nice to take old pieces and make them new again. And thanks for stopping by the blog while I was away...I am finally playing catch up here!!! xoxo, Naina
ReplyDeleteFun shoes! xo style, she wrote
ReplyDeleteLove the ethnic feel to your outfit, the mix and match of colors, patterns, length of skirt and those shoes....lovely:):)
ReplyDeletejalebi bai is also my current favorite.. and you look gorgeous..love the shoes..
ReplyDeleteYour skirt is aboslutely stunning, particularly the hemline- and the contrast between the bright coloured skirt and the equally bright shoes is just lovely!
