Sporting funky accessories can make the Mumbaikar’s commute a tad easier, be it during rush hour in local trains or festive processions. New pairs of Maharashtra-themed socks (Rs 734) are one such example. They match Mumbai’s spirit, with bold prints reflecting the bustle and colour of its streets. Throw in a few designs reflecting the spice of Kolhapur, and the tranquility of skies in the Konkan, and these can be perfect for someone who would like to make a truly desi statement with their clothing.
Socks
Similarly, handkerchiefs can reveal quirks about a person. If you’d like to add some flair to the monotony of carrying one around, the pocket-sized Maharashtra-themed hanky (Rs 489) might add some spark, with its prints of buses, Friday night parties, and the Dabbawalas of Mumbai. You might want even to use it as a makeshift bandana to beat the heat, and stay prepared as summer approaches Mumbai.
Tote bags
However, if we speak of everyday commutes, nothing says ‘prepared’ more than knowing what you need to carry during a day in the city, be it during a shopping spree in the local market or a walk on Juhu beach. You can add a touch of the Bambaiya vibe to your style with this Jivachi Mumbai tote canvas bag (R1079), which is flexible and accommodates everything you need. Consider it a helping hand amidst the busy vibes of the city, with prints of Kaali-Peeli taxis, tea and Vada Pav, and metro rides.
