Diaries of a Working Woman

Epitomizing effortlessly chic– overalls have remained a fashionable mainstay ever since Elsa Schiaparelli first made jumpsuits famous in the 1930s. Ever since then, the one-piece garment has gone through multiple iterations in different materials, say denim, khaki, and cotton, all serving various utilitarian purposes. The silhouette has won Katrina Kaif’s stamp of approval and employed it for her casual to fashionable fits. The street-style lovers have embraced the garment and championed it over the years and yet it’s hardly ever out of style.

Katrina Kaif’s fashion spectrum ranges from high-glam red-carpet outfits to an assortment of over-the-top ethnic ensembles. But when it comes to her personal off-duty style, the actor likes to keep it minimal and chic. Quite recently, she took to Instagram to share a series of stills from her escapades to Rajasthan, vacationing with her beau Vicky Kaushal. Her getaway look incorporated a black and white chequered shirt and chic dungaree. Making a case for dungarees having a fashion comeback, Kaif exuded that 1970s retro charm with her holiday look.

This might just be a calling card for dungarees making a fashionable comeback– credited to the style maven, Katrina Kaif herself. Pulling off the look effortlessly, Kaif sported a black and white chequered shirt and paired it with a stone-washed coloured dungaree. It came with a pocket in the front and buttons on the side for details. The chic overalls have remained an easy-to-wear garment for years now, be it for camping out in the woods, or staying at home and wanting to give those overused sweatpants a rest. This is not the first time the actor has resorted to the denim overalls– she employed similar silhouettes during her stay-at-home period as her favourite quarantine uniform. She completed the look with a basic black baseball cap and her hair neatly tied back into a pony while Vicky Kaushal posed next to her in a khadi green dominating ensemble.

As we all have been in search of the perfect quarantine uniform, some argue that gym wear ranks high on functionality, or kurtas offer the most comfort, while many others prefer luxurious co-ord sets that don’t compromise on style. If you can’t decide for yourself, there is plenty of style inspiration to take from Bollywood celebrities, and Katrina Kaif’s self-isolation wardrobe is not only super relatable and easy to recreate, but also stays true to her own personal aesthetic. Featuring lots of denims, all kinds of casual T-shirts, and relaxed tank tops, her at-home closet also happens to include denim dungarees. The overalls might not be a go-to option for others, but Kaif has been relying on the one-piece outfit for the past few weeks during self-isolation. First, we spotted her in a light-washed pair while cooking in her kitchen, and most recently, in a rugged black version to hang out in at her eclectic Mumbai home. In case you missed it, check out her OOTD below and keep scrolling to find a similar option online.

Given that Katrina Kaif is hardly ever seen wearing something that doesn’t align with her girl-next-door style personality, this OOTD fits the bill. The star wore a pair of stone-washed black dungarees over a simple white T-shirt that has become her go-to piece at home. The dungarees came with a pocket in the front and buttons on the side for details. The functional, yet not-so-boring look makes for an ideal outfit to spend all day in. 

Whether you’re finishing chores around the house or having an impromptu photo session on your terrace like Kaif, consider trying a pair of lightweight dungarees. We’ve got a suitable option listed below that looks just like the star’s.  

Bollywood’s best dressed are never breaking up with denim jumpsuits. Over the years, we’ve seen Deepika Padukone work the look while travelling, Kareena Kapoor Khan acing the classic at parties, and Sara Ali Khan stepping out in the staple too. Last night, Katrina Kaif gave her nod of approval to the wardrobe classic as she was spotted attending the screening of Kabir Khan’s web series, The Forgotten Army – Azaadi Ke Liye, in Mumbai. Kaif added a party-ready touch to her look by styling it with a pair of tie-up animal print heels that lent a quirky touch to her otherwise basic look. The star was also accompanied by rumoured beau Vicky Kaushal, whose brother Sunny Kaushal is part of the series’ cast. Scroll ahead to take a closer peek at Katrina Kaif’s latest outfit now.

Katrina Kaif’s button-down jumpsuit came with full-sleeves, cargo pockets, and a matching denim belt. While the fitted waistline of the outfit highlighted her perfectly toned midriff, the otherwise baggy fit of her look made it an ideal choice for a casual movie outing. For her night out with friends, Kaif went with nude lips, mascara and blow-dried hair.

If you are in search of a casual jumpsuit, a denim number like Katrina Kaif’s latest one is just right for you. You can either style it as is, or even add a pair of metallic heels and hoops to the mix for a more dramatic vibe. Crushing on her blue jumpsuit? Here’s where you can buy a similar one now.

Katrina Kaif has currently been super active on the social circuit, thanks to the promotions of her upcoming feature Bharat. The actor, who has lately been stepping out in multiple Indian ethnic looks, took a different route last afternoon and picked a blue jumpsuit and matching long jacket by Los Angeles-based designer, Michelle Mason. The star accessorised her outfit with classic gold hoop earrings and a multi-layered necklace by Shop Lune. To keep from stealing the spotlight from her jumpsuit, she completed her look with a pair of black pumps by Christian Louboutin.

Just a day after stepping out in that yellow Nikasha sari, Katrina Kaif made a strong case for slinky jumpsuits yesterday in her top-to-toe blue look. What made her jumpsuit stand out from others were its details: an overlapped bodice, plunging neckline and slouchy, perfect-for-humid-summer-days pants. Though the easy-going fit of Kaif’s outfit made it a comfortable pick for the season, its satin finish made it look dressy enough for an evening out. The actor complemented her outfit with nude lips, dewy makeup and kohled eyes. If you’re bored of wearing LBDs, inject a bolt of colour into your weekend wardrobe and invest in a blue jumpsuit like Kaif’s. If you tend to feel chilly indoors, layer up with a matching jacket just like she did. Scroll down to take a closer look at similar products.
