Gauri & Nainika at #AIFWSS17

Fashion December 18, 2016

Gauri & Nainika’s show at the Amazon India Fashion Week Spring Summer’17 was definitely one of my favourites!

The models walked & sashayed in frilly frocks in peaches, navy, black, white, red and brown. Black, white & navy dominated the collection with pops of fuschia and mustard. The collection was flowy, sexy, sultry and desirable containing the feminine frilly touches adding more drama with organza tulle, ruffles & weightless striped silks.

AM.IT by Amit Aggarwal at #AIFWSS17

Fashion December 5, 2016

First drops of innocence, breeze of fresh air, the burst of the first glitter & candy-filled birthday balloon, rose picked from a nearby garden and pressed between the notebook pages, the very first music CD are saved on the ‘icloud’ of our memory. Amit Aggarwal’s Spring Summer’17 collection at the Amazon India Fashion Week was one such show drawing inspiration from his childhood memories. The line is a fusion of what India has to offer in the west- textiles and what industrialization has brought in- technology.

A dhaba which is light, fun, crazy, out of the box & lively where people prefer to hang out with friends & family with their liquors & tharras which came in pauva bottles, a complete theka experience!

The menu at Dhaba By Claridges is divided into 3 parts- Tawa, Tandoor & Patila curated by the chef on board Ravi Saxena, the delicacies equaling five star hotels & dishes like Kanastari Baingan, Tiffin Chicken, Balti meat, their unique Dhaba ki Roti or Phirni.

Enjoy an array of services within the confines of your home

Beauty October 28, 2016

Eves, as I would like to describe the lovely creature called women, are always struggling and juggling for time. Don’t we at times wish for a genie or fairy godmother to just come and spread her magic wand so that our daily chores are done within hassle free?

Balancing work and home gives us little time for ourselves and it’s not easy to manage everything in a little time called weekends! At times we just delay things, could be because of time crunch or sheer laziness…. especially when it comes to salon work! Be it as simple as waxing, threading or facial, the trip to the salon is one of the laziest decisions!
