About Me

My photo
Style Destino is my personal style space bout cruelty-free and vegetarian style. Fashion is not above someone's life and it is irresponsible when someone makes a fashion choice that involves taking a poor animal's life. I believe in style that has a conscience. We are in 21st century where technology has advanced immensely, there are myriad options available and any person with a desire can make things happen. So it is sheer selfishness and irresponsible behaviour when people make unethical fashion choices. Through StyleDestino I share everything cruelty-free and ethical in my style. I do not use any handbags, shoes or accessories made from leather (animal skin), the make-up I use is also vegetarian and cruelty free. Luxury and compassion can coexist stylishly and Style Destino is an attempt to prove just that. Vegan fashion is not about dowdy clothes, cheap bags, or tawdry shoes. I can just easily be vegan and trot in my Olsen heels, sporting a Stella McCartney luxurious vegan handbag while showing off my red lips painted with OCC lip tar!! I travel the world around and never find dearth of stylish, high quality vegetarian fashion.

The Blazer Season: Your Guide To Mumbai Winters

The Blazer Season: Your Guide To Mumbai Winters

For those of you who are planning to visit Mumbai this winters and even for those who live in Bombay, you need to be prep up yourself for the winters (trust me you'll love this!): Here's how to survive the harsh Mumbai winter: You order a hot cup of coffee with friends, and soon after stop by at the street and get yourself fresh coconut water perhaps with the coconut meat! You only add 2 cubes of ice in your drinks instead of the usual 10. You wear the socks out for protection, because the floor is a degree colder than in the summer (lol) and more importantly the only protection your feet needs in the winter is from the cracked skin. You wear the smart winter boots {because the only time it won't silly is in the winters}, get your oversized sweater out {after you see all those Instagram women wearing one, you want to feel the winters too} and throw in a scarf, and in a few seconds switch on the AC to 20 degrees to save yourself from the winter discomfort {pu

Fashion Dose at Fashion Forward Dubai & VFDE

Fashion Dose at Fashion Forward Dubai & VFDE

Catwalks, fashion talks and meeting local designers, and stylists was such a great experience in the last two weeks spent at Fashion Forward Dubai and Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience (VFDE). This year's events had big guns like Miroslava Duma (Buro 24/7), Silvia Venturini Fendi (Creative Director Fendi), Imran Amed (BOF) and Huda Kattan (Huda Beauty) for fashion talks. Fendi's advice to new designers that ' you should not follow trends that don't belong to you ', was one of the key takeaways from her talks that I absolutely swear by when it comes to style too. Petite fashion power Miroslava Duma was most amazing, super friendly and down to earth. It was exciting to see her in person and she looks even better face-to-face. She shared her mantra to success "work hard and never give up" and although cliched I totally believe in it. I hate to confess, but until the Fashion Forward I had no idea about Huda. I did see her lashes at Sephora but wasn'

Step Out In Style: Best Online Shoe Store Directory

Step Out In Style: Best Online Shoe Store Directory

Let's face it, when it comes to shoe shopping, India is still miles behind and while Dubai boasts the world's biggest shoe store it still lacks the breath of collection and size options and very few options for vegans {Level Shoe District barely has vegan shoes}. For shoe aficionados this brings in excessive anxiety and trouble. Fear not shoe lovers. Fortunately we are a species of digital era where online shopping and international shipping are a reality. And yes, I mean we . Besides opening up a sea of shoe brands online shoe shopping is a far more pleasurable experience. Unlike physical shopping that can be physically and mentally exhausting you're able to shop the prettiest of shoes with the comfort of your home with just a few clicks. You can choose your permutation and combinations of colours, style, heel size and can instantly get a choice of thousands of shoes to pick from without the nosy sales reps or the need to hop from one store to the other tiring yourself.

Ferragamo For Vegans

Ferragamo For Vegans

I'm never a proponent of "leather goods". And I can smugly say that I'm far away from days when the word "Gucci", "Prada" or "Ferragamo" {no, not LV, I've never been the fan of this brand considering every hoity-toity woman walking the planet from 16-60 strutted in one of their ubiquitous monogrammed bags that made me nearly nauseated} would get my heart racing, and I would go to the moon and back to find that one purse that's not-leather and Gucci.That is not to say I still don't search them, but the reasons are quite different.  As we increasingly become glued to our iPhones checking the latest instagram feed featuring "it women" with their "it bags" and then flipping on the latest Vogue's publication on Zinio with eye-catching editorials and ads, the fleeting desire to own that new $5000 "it bag" or a blatant logo belt suddenly takes over our sensibility. But there is a darker side

Ugly Chic: New In

Ugly Chic: New In

After years of discomfort with the flat shoes, I finally gave in to my fear of wearing flats. Oh Ugly! Not kidding, the ugly shoe fever caught me and last week when I spotted this pair at the Charles and Keith store I couldn't resist buying them. It was more like summer bit me and the citrus hue was pleading - PLS BUY ME! The best thing I like about Charles and Keith brand is not only do they have stylish shoes and bags, but they are also vegan friendly. Most of their products are leather free, which is a big relief in this {in-compassionate} world of fashion. What's that one thing you're scared of wearing?

Stella McCartney Falabella Bag Review: Suitable For Vegetarians

Stella McCartney Falabella Bag Review: Suitable For Vegetarians

Months, its been literally months that I had my eyes on this gorgeous colour from Stella Falabella collection. Its no news that I am obsessed with Stella McCartney bags {with bags that look like these and come with a tag "Suitable for Vegetarians", who wouldn't?}. I was over the moon when I received this as a present delivered from Barcelona. What I love the most about this bag is that despite its size, it can stock in a lot of stuff and the colour makes it so versatile. It looks great with a dress, denims, shorts, an all black outfit, a monochrome outfit and even with a pop of colour. However, like my other Stella McCartney bag, the chain of this bag digs on your shoulder too and you can see the marks on your skin after you wear it. Plus, this bag is also very slouchy, so when you hang it - it loses its shape and looks weird. I think the slouchy Falabella overall is not a good style from Stella - no matter how great it looks. In fact, my other Stella McCar

DOING CLASSIC: Stripes and White Shirt

DOING CLASSIC: Stripes and White Shirt

Topshop White Shirt, Cotton On Striped Skirt, Steve Madden Shoes, H&M Hat and Charles and Keith Handbag Happy new start of the week peeps!! My week is starting off pretty awesome as the travel diary has started a new chapter. From Mumbai to this new destination (I am going all hush hush about it for now, you'll get to know soon), the summer sun is brimming in full rage, which means I can easily transition my full summer wardrobe to Fall. Yippie!! If you are on my Instagram you'd already know I spotted these vegan shoes at Steve Madden and although I was planning to get it in nude, the gorgeous tan was too hard to resist. How do you like them?  With shoes like that I couldn't think of anything but classics to go with it. So I paired a white button-down and a striped midi skirt and threw my recent love a floppy hat for a good measure. This bag is also a new addition to my wardrobe. With a transparent front, slide sling, and enough roo

MOOD TODAY: TARTAN & LEOPARD

MOOD TODAY: TARTAN & LEOPARD

Paying homage to the last days of winters in the winter staple tartan print. While I do like those pleasant sunny days, winter is my absolute favourite season. Not the freezing, snowy winter that'll lock you down in the house, and terrorize you with the mere idea of stepping out, but the winter where just some basic layering with a blazer or even a denim jacket and a scarf will suffice, those winter days where you would love to sit in the balcony reading your fav magazine while sipping on green teas and enjoying the winter chill. So for today, one of the last such pleasant days {and evenings}, before the scorching heat sets in I decided to get out my winter staple tartan print and pair it with a denim jacket and clash with the leopard print shoes. The coral-pink-peachish nail colour from the vegan nail paint brand butter London will add a nice pop of colour and go well with my oxblood jeans. Nude lips and top knot will finish the look perfectly - casual yet chic is what I am a

How to Wear Colours and Prints at Work

How to Wear Colours and Prints at Work

River Island Jacket, 7 For All Mankind Jeans and Charles and Keith Shoes I think dressing up for work gets you in a rut without even realising it. Especially when you work in a more professional environment like finance, you get too comfortable in the same old same old white shirts, striped shirts and sometimes the good old checks, more often than not, paired with a pair of black trousers {its fail safe}. But then you wake up one day and almost feel like you are in a school wearing the same uniform everyday and losing your personality at work, because you look, well, boring. Its like you're almost trying too hard {to look the part}. I often get in that coccon or rut if you like to call that, and then every once in a while I get the wake up call. So on one of the Fridays when we had plans to leave early from the office for a drive and dinner later, it suddenly dawned on me that I can't be going out like my usual self at work. Yet I can't carry extra pair t

nana & bird: Store Review - Shopping in Singapore

nana & bird: Store Review - Shopping in Singapore

I just realised I really hadn't done the much deserved post on this little gem I discovered on one of my (not so recent) trips to Singapore. While you definitely need some high street brands to get your fashion dose, the wardrobe isn't really complete without some amazing designers and stand out styles; which is the reason I always make it a point to get out of the malls and find local designers or stores that have bespoke designers or stock from relatively unknown or not so ubiquitous talented designers and upcoming labels. nana & bird is a charming well hidden quaint fashion and accessories store in Singapore that stocks well curated designs of independent emerging designers and labels from around the world. The brand was initially launched as a pop-up store {in Shanghai and Singapore} that eventually graduated to a multi-designer store retaining its charm and well-curated selection. I visited nana and bird on my last day in Singapore, as
