Tamara and Sharon, two yarn-passionate women are the founders of Topsy Turvy Crochet. It is an exclusive crochet brand that gives you an opportunity to gift someone a handmade crochet item like never before. Anything from beanies to sweaters, mufflers to home decor items, babies accessories to bow-ties.

When you gift someone a Topsy Turvy product, rest assured that every stitch is knit with love and patience.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to collaborate with them as they are empowering some amazing women through the sheer craft of Crochet to supplement their income.

The Old Fashioned Bar located in Koramangala was the perfect choice to conceive and execute this shoot. As the bar is cosy and intimate, just like the crochet we love, serving some of the best mock-tails and cocktails in the city. 

The Classic Look

To begin with, have you ever thought that crochet would be inappropriate at work? Then allow us show you how to work it perfectly for your next meeting in style!

Firstly, we have paired a gorgeous beige crochet bustier with office staples like a black pencil skirt and a black waist belt. In addition, we have matched it with a similar tone mesh jacket to add the X factor that reinforces your boss-lady status.

Not to mention, Chunky, animal print, earrings with a vintage, metal-rimmed pair of aviators make a powerful fashion statement. The mini-studded clutch with pom-poms and a minimal statement pearl necklace, which has been handcrafted by SOG balances the whole look. To bring this ensemble to life, a pair of comfortable, floral print block heels has been added.

Secondly, we give you a light, easy-breezy yet vivacious ensemble to paint the town red. This tri-coloured bikini top with adjustable straps sets you apart. Paired with wide-legged solid coloured lounge pants and a pastel pink oversized jacket, makes it an exciting outfit for just about any occasion.

In addition, the shell chain, another one of SOG’s handcrafted jewellery, and the mini, pom-pom wallet ups the fun element for the outfit. An eclectic pair of lavender mules adds subtlety to the whole outfit.

Moreover, this look will have you covered from loungewear to resort wear and everything in between.

The Bohemian Look

Thirdly and most importantly, this one-of-a-kind, chic halter neck top stands out for its versatility. The multi-coloured fringes at the hemline bring out the hippie in you. Furthermore, a magnificent, studded monochrome jacket, paired with a bright orange palazzo takes the outfit to the next level. The dangler earrings with shell drops, courtesy SOG, sit beautifully at the shoulders and the tan leather studded slides helps bring together a nostalgic retro and bohemian vibe.

Moreover, this unforgettable look draws attention like a moth to a flame. Parties, cocktails, date nights, girls’ night out, or even a vacation by the seaside. There’s nothing that this outfit is not the perfect choice for.
