The Right Way to Wear White Jeans!

Denim never runs out of style. One of the most reliable clothing to bank on, whatever be the weather and whatever be the occasion, this fabric has always remained a constant favourite amongst all. White has always been a symbol of peace so it brings in an air of tranquility and adds a breezy dash in your everyday surroundings.
Tuck your blues, blacks and browns in your cupboard and pull on a pair of white jeans. Jabong.com shows you how you can mix and match your pair of versatile white jeans:
Go for pastel colours like yellow, orange or bright red to complement with your pair of white jeans. Toss on a vest or a denim jacket for a laidback look. Wear flats or sandals in neutral shades like tan, brown, black or beige to keep it simple and cool. Don on chunky necklaces or bracelets in vibrant colours to get a buoyant aura around you. Dump all your belongings in a colourful sling bag and get a thumbs up from the fashion police.
The rule of the thumb while carrying off your whites is that anything matches with white but you do not want to get caught being too drab and plain. Hence, combine bright colours when you wear your whites to create a trendy style statement.
You can even go all out in white, especially in winter if you are decked from head to toe in white, and a long brown coat on, would definitely make you look and feel like an adorable snow bunny.
Say hello to that cool invention called a washing machine in case you are afraid your whites would get dirty quickly. Don’t have any excuse anymore? So go grab your pair of jeans and other assortments at Jabong Shopping today!

Ways to Reuse Your Old Tees

We can never get enough of our tees, can we? Our hearts break when our Mom empties out our worn out tees while spring cleaning our closets. However tattered and ragged our tees become, we cannot bear the thought of tossing them out!
However, not all of us have the domestic skills to knit or sew to revamp your clothes. So, especially for the unskilled and lazy lot of us, Jabong.com brings to you some quirky ways where you can reuse your old tees and bring them back from the dead…errr trashcan back into your home!
1.      Dust clothes:-The easiest way to reuse your old tees is to cut them into large pieces in order to use them to dust the small corners of your television set, wipe your mirror, and wash your scooty or car. Dust clothes would always come handy and you can never have enough of them.
2.      Headbands and Belts:-Stylish headbands are just a step away without too much of efforts. Run your scissors through your t-shirt and get innovative by tying up the pieces into thick knots and sticking it on with glue. A longer piece of T-shirt can also be improvised into a belt which would simply require a buckle on.

3.      Necklaces, Bracelets and Scarves:-The pattern of the T-shirt would depend on how the necklace would turn out to be: funky, splashy, plain, pleasant to the eye.  The same can be used for a bracelet in case the length and width of the T-shirt isn’t too much. Beads and glitter can be added to the piece to make it even more attractive. Silk, satin, velvet or even cotton tops can be used to make a scarf.

4.      Skirt:-The shorter the skirt, the costlier it is, isn’t it? If your top isn’t too worn out, you can always make a skirt out of it. You will need nothing but your unbriddled imagination!

5.    Grocery Bag:-If there was a competition between how often you wear your favourite tee and how often your parents use the same grocery bag for dragging veggies and fruits home, the latter would score an outright win. Surprise your parents by making a grocery bag at no added cost or expense! Here is how you can do it!

6.      Breathing a New Life into your Tee!:-Your old T-shirt can also be transformed into a whole new T-shirt. An old T-shirt which is too large for you can be stitched to make a spaghetti top. A full sleeved top can be switched into a tube top or a one shoulder strap piece. Trick your friends into thinking you have made a brand new purchase and they would be astounded when you reveal it is actually your creativity behind it!
Remember, experimenting and exploring your ingenuity is the best way to move forward. You can also donate old T-shirts to the needy who cannot afford hoarding clothes. So stop accumulating your umpteen drawers with the tops you don’t require! While you are clearing your closet, make sure you splurge on Jabong Shopping to fill in the bare space!

Neutral Colours Unleashed!

The best style statement is always to be yourself, from the outside and the inside. Many people influence their sense of style based on what their peers or family wear. Most of the time, this tactic does not work since each personality, body type, colour complexion, skin tone, hair texture is carved differently.
The first step towards grooming yourself is to ignore the peer pressure and learn to say NO to things you do not love. Some people love wearing neutral shades and add bright colours to their wardrobe only after much persistence from others. Why experiment with colours you are not comfortable with? Jabong Fashion is here to guide you with the basic know-how on neutral shades.
Neutral shades are classy, suave at the same time chic! They are meant for those who prefer to shy away from attention and prefer being simple yet polished. How do you find out if neutral shades are your preference? For starters, neutral colours in the fashion business would constitute white, black, grey, navy, brown, khakhis and tans. To add on, hues like off white, cream, a lighter shade of black, charcoal grey, sand colour would also fall in the same ambit. These colours can be utilized whatever be the occasion, formal, party, casual or a quiet get together at home.
Accessorizing yourself is a great way to make your outfit stand out from the crowd and at the same time sustains your low key image. Metallic jewellery would add a definite edge to your elegant personality. You can play around with your footwear by trying high heeled peep toes of nude shade or neutral shades again. Heels would make you appear taller and accentuate your body shape.
So discern which colour lies in store (our Jabong.com store, specifically!) for you! Write in to let us know how you revamped your closet today!
