Get The Look: Keeping it casual

Bollywood actor Dia Mirza was spotted at Nandita Das’s play in Prithvi, Mumbai. We love her trendy ensemble, fashionable mustard skinny jeans and a silk floral top, here’s how you can get the look!

Hair

Dia is sporting side bangs with half tied hair, a look easy enough to achieve with just a clip supporting your hair in the back.

Make-up

She’s not wearing any noticeable make-up, perhaps just the everyday tinted moisturizer and blush on the apples of her cheeks. We like Olay’s a touch of foundation available at Agha’s (Rs1,500) and Mac blush in Posey (Rs1,400), Maybelline’s Collosal waterproof mascara (Rs1,000).

Outfit

Mustard coloured skinny jeans are different and mark unique on our style-o-meter! Her silk floral printed top is elegant and gives off a semi formal look when paired with casual jeans. For an outfit like Dia’s, check out stores like Mango, Debenhams, Outfitters, and Next. (Prices vary on design) — a cheaper option would always be to get something like this stitched.

Accessories 

She’s got an interesting necklace, with beads matching her top. A dark brown slim waist belt and a fun cross over leather bag. She could have worn some funky bracelets for some extra jazz. Watch out for cross over bags at Accessorize (Rs3,000), slim waist belts at Mango (Rs1,200), and a funky beaded necklace at your local market.

Shoes

She’s wearing casual beige ballet flats with little stringed bows on top. For a pair of your own be sure to check out Vincci or Charles and Keith (Rs2,000-4,000).
