Of High Street fashion and the Floral romance!

Since i'm in Chandigarh for my internship these days, i miss the malls in Mumbai.Nevertheless sector 17 in Chandigarh offers high street experience.Girls strut around in classy heels and high price fashion! Its good to watch them dressed up for a shopping spree.As i hopped from one shop to another i found few of my online finds in the stores!.

1) Have a look at these light blue jelly shoes at United Colors of Benetton(henceforth ref to as UCB) similar to the ones i posted in the shade 'nude'

As you can see ,the dummies are wearing the prettiest of floral prints.This season has been the best ever floral treat for the girly girls! I'm lovin it :)

2) Floral skirt in UCB

3) Blue printed jumpsuit.Pink floral long skirt. The dummies have been redesigned to create more Oomph around fashionable clothing.These runway-look dummies make you drool over the slightest hint of fashion! So keep drooling....

5) Too Cool Buddies!

I happen to like just about any kind of clothes on these hot dummies. And i'm sure all of you will agree . The burden on visual merchandisers has surely come down :)
