Hello All,
I hope everyone is having a lovely week, it was a holiday here cause of 26th January and I do love middle of the week holidays :)
This is sale season and it's becoming very difficult for me to stop myself from buying stuff after looking at those flat 50% offs but I did not give in to the shopping demon inside me and only bought some stuff that I actually needed or lacked yeee!!! for that


Here are a couple of outfit pics in which I am not wearing pajamas(cause that is what i was doing lately)

have not shown my face cause of extremely silly expressions in all the pics of this outfit

Skirt: Vero Moda

Top:Hill road

Shoes: Venus steps

Necklace: originally came with another top 

An extremely simple and cool outfit which is perfect for mumbai mausam(weather)

Skirt&Top: Espirit

Shoes: Catwalk

Bangles: Dadar

Couple of months back I had written a post about getting out of my comfort zone when it came to dressing and am happy that these past few weeks I have worn something other than jeans, though it' still my garment of choice when I can't think of anything to wear but may be that would also change

have you done anything in the recent past that involves leaving your comfort zone???

Blogger return

Hello All,
How's the weekend going???
Mine is slow and lazy involving tasty food and watching Eclipse on DVD :)
I have been a very irregular blogger and that has been a conscious decision but I still read all the other blogs though I have been a bit slow when it comes to comments sorry for that(sheepish smile)
So what have I been doing?? here's a list:
1. Cooking a lot, trying new dishes and I am thinking of blogging about it also what say you??
    I am no gourmet cook but a novice cook cooking by trial and error
2. I am learning a new language Italian yeeeee!!!! and it's so beautiful just hearing the teacher speak is 
   bellisimo!!(wonderful)
3. House hunting which unfortunately did not result in anything huh!! damn you mumbai real estate
4. Regular workouts  
I also started logging my food daily in http://caloriecount.about.com/ and it's very useful as it tells you the nutrients that are lacking in your diet and also tells you about the foods you need to eat to make up for it, I recommend it to anyone who is trying to eat healthy 


Here are a couple of outfit pics I managed to click

Happy New Year

Wishing a happy and prosperous new year to everybody

May this year bring happiness and fulfillment of wishes to all

and how did you celebrate it???

I was very brave this year and decided to go to a club which was a pretty good  experience and the traffic was not too bad either

but now that I have done that next year onwards it would be back to a quite evening with family and friends at home :)

Is anybody the resolutions kind?? would love to hear them 

here's a pic of me going out for a movie and the movie was Band Baaja Barat 

yes I saw it again I think it's the fact that the movie transports me back to delhi  every time I watch it that attracts me

Shoes: Bangkok

Bag: Bandra

Dress:Espirit

Necklace: Bandra

Scent of a memory

Yesterday I was reading something about perfumes, how it works, it's chemistry and ......

I use perfumes for a different reason all together besides the obvious, I use perfumes to capture memories


Whenever I go on a vacation or start a new job or am about to do something other than the usual I wear a new perfume and when I want to revive the memories I wear that perfume 
I have the perfume I wore on my honeymoon and wear that whenever I want to think about those days 
the whiff of that fragrance is a whiff of the days gone by and I swear I get transported back to those moments in my life....... bliss
Do you use your perfumes in this manner???
On a totally unrelated topic there are no good movies releasing aaah!!!!!! what's up with that production houses???
So, I was not at all expecting to like Band Baaja Baarat but it was surprisingly good :) and I totally loved 
maybe the fact that it is shot in Delhi and depicts the culture there has something to do with it but whatever I recommend watching it
it's loud, funny, romantic and has some awesome acting by the lead pair 
This is a three day weekend  and I am so happy to have three uninterrupted days with husband :) ear to ear grin
have a good weekend
see you soon

desi style

Hello Everybody,
how're you??? I have been MIA since almost 1 month but in my defense I am travelling
Last year I was not able to visit north India during winters because of work but this year I have made up for that in fact more than made up for that
now I am actually missing the muggy Mumbai weather and Mumbai though I never thought I would feel like this but it has kinda grown on me so I am waiting for the day when I get to board my flight and go back to my normal life and my dear husband
Meanwhile here is a totally ethnic look 

A silk saree purchased from Bangalore

I love sarees and never miss an opportunity to wear one 

I think this is called a temple design saree and some how I have a lot of green sarees though I don't particularly like this color

Have a great weekend guys :) will try to be more regular with my posts
