Her Looks

#LikeABoss

February 3, 2015
Hello #GirlBoss! Yes, you reading this sentence right now. You are a #GirlBoss aren’t you? Have you read Sophia Amoruso’s book #GirlBoss? It’s been one of the most talked about books in recent times so you must have. Even if you haven’t there must have been a couple of selfies here and there with the book strategically placed to be in the frame. Or next to your drink on the beach. Because that’s what real girl bosses do. Go to the beach, chill out with a drink in hand and read books that inspire you to build multimillion dollar companies. I admit I’ve been guilty of the same! So the book has been ripped apart from every angle by critics, some saying the hashtag tells its own sad story of being a ‘Girl Boss’ instead of a ‘Boss’, others showering praises over the fun, self-deprecating and self-aware author. Keeping all that aside, the essence of #GirlBoss still hits you strong. No I’m not claiming it will transform you overnight or that brilliant ideas will strike you at midnight or that you will somehow build yourself a multimillion dollar empire. But you will teach yourself to do stuff you don’t know instead of hiring someone to do it for you. You will stand up for your beliefs even if the whole world is against you. You will realize there is nothing wrong in asking for a helping hand. You will start to feel like a #GirlBoss and then then soon enough, start acting like one.I was trying to channel my inner #GirlBoss (or just #Boss if its pleases you!) with this look and styling. Confident, independent, knows what she wants from life and is not afraid to go get it. Yes, we all falter, we have our moments of curling up in bed with a bag of potato chips, favorite tv show and refusing to get up until the universe gives up on plotting against us. But once a #GirlBoss always a #GirlBoss and eventually we bounce back.I am being drawn to everything black and white these days. Probably because they form the perfect canvas to add a bit of color and sparkle. A tiny pop of orange made all the difference in the world to this monochrome look. Sometimes you just want a hassle free, no-nonsense outfit with no chunky necklaces or earrings or bracelets. Body chains are the perfect alternative for such occasions – you have jewelry on, but it really doesn’t get in your way! I just added my favorite pair of heels and a printed bag to complete the look and am ready to conquer the world #LikeABoss!

    Great outfit – I really like how the orange stands out against the black and the white, and the body chain adds interest without being fussy.
