Tippy Tuesdays #8 - Classic Must-Haves

Hello everyone, First of all I have noticed some more people signing on the blog. Welcome on board! and thanks for following..really means alot to me! If you have any special requests or questions or to drop a line, you can always e-mail me at: sonia.garaha@gmail.com.

So, its Tuesday meaning its time for a tip. Today's tip I am talking about Classic pieces that every women/girl should have in their closet. I have watched and read countless articles about what are considered "classic Investment worth pieces". Remember these are the basic pieces, once you have these you can build on it. I have definitely been lacking in this department (I am weird, I am aware) because I have always been a fan of colors. But if you are like me, something from the down below list would help you out..So here is what I came up with:

1. Trench Coat

2. Black Blazer

3. Fitted White Blouse (with or without emblishments)

4. Basic Black Pant

5. Great quality bark-washed jeans (Boot-cut or skinny Jeans are most flattering on most body types)

6. White and black Tank Tops

7. Pencil Skirt (I have once in black, grey, red, blue-denim)

8. LBD - Little Black Dress

9. Wool Cashmere sweater

10. Warm-knitted wool cardigan/ ligt weight summer cardigan

So what are some of your classic pieces in your closet? You can mention some or all staples, I would love to read what other people consider Staples. Please do let me know in the comments below. I love to read them :) Thanks for stopping by and Have a great day!

Love, Nav

Tippy Tuesdays #2

Hello. It is Tuesday - means another tip from Navland! Yipee...... ok! Moving on.....haha

Ever find people give you cards (for birthdays, anniversaries, thank you cards, get well soon, Valentines day cards, christmas cards)  and they are just lying around or hidden in drawers? Well get them out and lets send outt hese bad boys to work! and decorate out room at the same time. You ask how?? Let me show you how I do it.

I had 35 cards in total. I am a very sentimental person so I couldnt even think of throwing them out and just from a faint memory, I had seen them hanging in a book shop like how I am about to show you.

You willl need the following:

10 Same size cards (Big)

• 10 smaller size cards (if you have any - if not, no problem)

• Stapler
• Paper pins - the ones shown below (4 of them)

Lets start...

Take the BIG cards - 8 of them and take bottom left of one card end of the card and staple it to the top right end of another card...keep doing this until you make a queue of them stapled together like in the following picture.

For the smaller cards, I make a horizontal queue by stapling top right corner of one card with bottom left corner of another card, shown like below:

And there you have it. Once all stapled, hang the long big cards queue (of about 8 cards) in a corner with one of those pins I should you above. I placed the horizontal short cards queue on one of the side walls.

Let me show you what I mean.

I have put them up in 2 corners of my room. It makes my room very personal and a good reminder that people adore you for your efforts or for who you are!

Hope you all enjoy this tippy tuesdays episode! I  always love to read comments! Leave below if you enjoyed this post and will be using this idea! Let me know how you all organize your cards?

Have a good rest of the week! Stay fab!
