For Those Frugal Days - Designer buys for under 20,000 Indian Rupees

So you all have shopped and shopped over the holidays in India, abroad and online and now you're broke. So what, we all go through our broke days. I am perpetually going through those as some stupid bag or the other uses up most of my savings so there's only so much leftover to buy all the other stuff I'm lusting after. We all have frugal phases in life so here's a post for all my lovelies with limited funds to pay for all the designer goodies we love so much.

With Matches Fashion and Net-A-Porter, the prices displayed are inclusive of duties and taxes and shipping is relatively cheap too (20 pounds at matches and 15 dollars with net-a-porter). However, from MyTheresa, prices are not inclusive of duties and shipping is about 69 Euros which is slightly pricey but trust me if I've featured the product it means its a real must have and is NOT available in Delhi and is likely to also sell out soon. So take a call accordingly my loves.

Here are my favourite items under 20,000 INR.

Alexander McQueen skull charm leather belt - For those of you who have been really lusting after a McQueen belt, now's your chance. At fifty per cent off, I couldn't ask for more. Use this belt to cinch your dress or simply to accessorise your jeans; an Alexander McQueen belt is the perfect accessory. Click here to purchase.

Alexander McQueen De Manta leather cosmetics bag - As you all know, just recently I invested in a De Manta clutch and I couldn't be happier. I love the shape of the De Manta and what I am loving even more is that they even have a cosmetics bag in this model. Now even my make up can travel or lay around my bathroom in style. A McQueen make up bag for 10,810 rupees and that too in leather, I mean really, I would be a fool not to buy this. Click here to purchase.

Valentino rockstud leather Iphone case - If you have been dying to own a Valentino Rockstud product but have been too broke to buy it, now is your chance! This series is highly coveted and even the iphone case makes a strong style statement. I adore the powder pink leather. So girly. Click here to purchase.

Agnelle moka ponyskin and leather gloves - Okay so the temperatures here in Delhi are taking a serious nosedive and my fingerless gloves do me no good when I'm out at night. ENTER, these super fun, printed gloves. Made from a combination of lambskin and calfskin with a 100 per cent cashmere lining, these gorgeous babies are not only stylish but functional too. For 7,000 rupees, these are definitely value for money. The leather exterior and cashmere lining are definitely going to keep your hands warm. Click here to purchase.

Sophia Webster amber plaid high-heel pumps - Sophia Webster is one of the hottest shoe designers these days and has taken the fashion world by a storm with her designs. I love the cheeky twist on the classic plaid on this particular pair and the ball embellishments are just so fun. The heel is just beyond sexy too. A pair of Sophia Webster shoes would be an important addition to your shoe closet and I suggest you order them soon as the sizes are selling out like hot cakes. Click here to purchase.

Dolce & Gabbana belucci velvet pumps - I have been looking for that perfect pair of simple black pumps which aren't too expensive and now I have found them. They are simple but versatile enough to pair with a lot of outfits and are sexy too. Click here to purchase.

Shourouk Atari embellished cuff - Parisian designer, Shourouk Rhaiem is one of the most sought after jewellery designers today, so you need to add this name to your designer dictionary like ASAP. What I love most about Shourouk jewellery is the eye catching colour combinations used. Take this cuff for example, don't you just love the contrasting shades of purple and pink Swarovski crystals? The cuff stays true to the designer's motto of "luxury and decadence". Click here to purchase.

Oscar De La Renta gold plated cabochon earrings - For the last few seasons I have become a huge fan of the designer's cabochon earrings. The fact that they're on 70 per cent off doesn't hurt either. The size paired with the green colour make it a statement accessory. Tie your hair up in a chic pony tail for maximum impact. Click here to purchase.
