Style on a budget | Commercial Street
Wassup KYFAM !
We all are low key fashionistas and want to keep up with the
latest trends but, everything trending is either pricey or not in reach (especially
if you dress modestly like I do IMPOSSIBLE !). Pause and look around , every
city has its gem where you can splurge and get more than what you spent . Such
a place is Bangalore’s Commercial Street . A sprawling flea market with lanes
and lanes of apparel , accessories , home decor and what not . On my recent
visit to this flea market I gave myself a challenge of spending only Rs.1000
and see if I could put together a complete outfit.
Keep reading to see what I assembled.
The lane I went to was right adjacent to Safina Plaza , this
landmark will get you to the exact places I shopped at and also is a safe spot to park . After an
hour and a half of exploring and frisking multiple shops I settled for a denim
shirt dress which I wanted since forever , a tang sling bag , strap flip flops,
an long owl chain , arm candies and a
long black tank top . I will mention the shop and price deets below the images
.
Denim shirt dress : Rs.350 , Shop No. (110)
Tang sling bag : Rs.150 , Shop No.(148)
Strap flip flops : Rs.200,Shop No.(72)
Chain:Rs.50, Shop ( Street Vendor)
Arm Candies : Rs.70 , Shop (Street Vendor)
Long Tank Top :Rs.130 , Shop No.(110)
The best part about the denim shirt dress is that it is so
versatile and you can use it as a layering piece and get another look out of it
. Layer it over a tank top and you have a casual street look .
I spent 1 ½ hour and Rs.950 on this look , it’s definitely a
catch .Now that you know about the place what are you waiting for ?
Get out and explore this wonderful street . It has something for everybody and
you surely will find something of your style . I’ve not even mentioned the
yummy street food ( Bhel Puri , Lassi and cut mango ! ) .
Take a day off and unwind in this chaotic home of small and
big finds.
Until next time
Polý agape (lots of love) and stay cheerful :)
