Bombay Dreams



I recently attended my close friend Ruchika's wedding a few weeks ago with my boyfriend and wanted to share this special post.

I designed my outfit as part of my personal custom made clothing boutique - Anaya Couture.  If you are interested in getting a custom made outfit made for your special event, make sure you contact me!  I truly love designing outfits and making my customers fashion dreams/designs come to life.  

 FASHION TIP: To match or not to match? 

Personally when I attend a formal event I always prefer to match my outfit with my boyfriends. I feel it is a way for a couple to look and feel like a cohesive unit. It is also just visually more appealing, especially when you look back at the pictures you've taken.

Luckily for me my boyfriend also likes when our outfits coordinate.  So when we attend special events our final outfit choices are ones that we have both equally contributed to (ok, maybe I have a little more say). ;)

There are simple ways to cordinate with your date, whether it's matching his dress shirt, tie, or pocket square it all works.  For example, in this case we decided to match his tie and pocket square with my outfit.  I took my outfit to Le Chateau and literally held it beside all the colour choices and selected the closest colour.  To me this is always the easiest way to ensure the colours actually match. If you go by memory there is a potential risk of selecting the wrong colour.

If this is a little overwhemling for you don't hesitate to ask the sales associate; they usually have a eye for fashion and can provide you with a few options.
