Accept it. Public transport in India, although a necessity, intimidates us. Especially if you are a fashionista and want to look trendy 24X7. This post is to help you dress up stylishly and add the ‘X’ factor to your ensemble even on the treacherous long commute. Read on for some cool tips.



Layered glam



Master the art of layering, ladies. Not just in cold weather, layering in summers can make a boring outfit look chic and stylish. Added advantage? It will keep you covered and safe from tanning in the sun. Not just that, you will not be exposed to uncomfortable gazes of fellow passengers either. Win-win! You can try sleeveless or three quartered jackets and shrugs in light, airy fabrics like cotton or crochet. It’s best that you avoid synthetic fabrics as they’ll only make you sweat more!

Dungaree damsel



You know that dungarees are some of the hottest fashion pieces now. They scream trendy like no other. Following the dungaree way is sure to make you earn extra brownie points! It is not only one of the most comfortable trends, but it is laidback, casual and perfect for long journey. Just pair them up with sneakers and a comfy t-shirt or shirt and see how you tick the right boxes.

Flats and sneakers come to rescue

I know we would love to wear heels on a daily basis, because they flatter our figure and give us extra confidence. But, it isn’t feasible to wear high heels while travelling in public transport. Fret not as we have so many stylish alternatives like cool flatforms, printed sneakers, and gorgeous flats. With so many colors, designs and styles to choose from, you will definitely find a few that you will love.

Maxi dresses to the rescue

If you adore dresses, maxis will be your best friends for daily transport. With maxis, you don’t have to be worried about showing skin any more while commuting via public transport. Also you can try long skirts with different fits, flares and colors. The benefit of these outfits is that you can look effortlessly stylish with the minimal efforts. Also, you won’t get any weird looks from the metro aunties or the conservative uncles.

New spin on gym wear

Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid revolutionized leisurely dressing in athleisure-wear which will be every commuter’s dream come true. Invest in nice jogger pants and gym jeggings. You can throw a basic tee, a loose shirt or even quirky jackets. A pair of sneakers or cool casual flats, and a baseball cap! Voila! You are the ever so stylish fashion bee without compromising on comfort.

Accessorizing is the key

The best way to make any boring outfit look stylish is to accessorize it with complementary pieces. So why not add the latest choker neckpieces and body chains to your ensemble. Just see how they immediately oomph up your look.

Make backpacks your friends

They are undoubtedly the best bag options available for commuters. Backpacks are spacious enough to let you carry your world in them without killing your shoulders unlike totes. Also the vast array of backpacks available make it possible to pair it with any outfit – from girly to geeky!
