Of Pools and Parties

Pool Parties have been a in the  news for  various reasons in Pune. Right from the famous O pool party every Sunday, atop  the O Hotel  in Koregaon park, to students getting arrested at a pool side party in the last week of August.

This may be an odd season for pool parties. But my dear friend Damini Oberoi, who runs a Pune based event management firm called ‘Q’, was managing the Mercedes Benz ‘B’ Launch party a couple of weekends back & asked me to drop by. I was super excited about the event because it would give me a chance to share some interesting looks with you. I was thinking kaftans, funky footwear, sun glasses, ‘resort’ wear, accessories & lastly swimwear. Well, it was not what I had imagined but here’s what I saw, loved and hated.

I totally loved the mc’s laid back look with the polka dotted bikini, hot pants & white gunji.   

Oh and that’s the car by the way, it look small but man ‘twas super spacious on the inside.

I also  loved t he  burst  of color on this  model & the aviators of course. I do wish she had worn flat – but alas all the models were in heels. Not very ‘ pool party-ish’  – yeah?

Both these ladies made a pretty picture with their bright summery dresses. I loved both the peter pan collar pink dress and the nautical printed orange. Perfect for pool side parties – don’t you think? And these ladies were so happy to pose for me. Made my day!

Also spotted a gorgeous maxi dress. Just perfect to lounge around the pool, when you have no plans to step in the water. A maxi dress is a versatile wardrobe addition and can go well at a casual day or formal evening function (with an addition  of accessories, of course). I am totally investing in one  this season.

Since we have expressed our love for Aviators in posts earlier, I couldn’t resist putting up this picture.

Also spotted were flowers around ankles and toes. The blue ones are from Steve Madden (I asked :p)

Extreme WTF moment – where in the world do they wear boots to a pool party!

Yes,  this was a very journalistic post. But hey, can’t stay self obsessed and talk just about us – can we?.
