I am so excited today! Although I had decided that I would control till my outfit post, but I couldn't stop myself from posting. Look what I got in my mail today! Have you seen anything more adorable than these? This pretty pair of pink sneakers is from Gamiss. They are perfect for the changing weather in India. I see myself wearing these a lot!

Lakme Fashion Week 2014

Hello Ladies!

Firstly how was your Holi?? I am all pink right now and won't be doing outfit posts for this week atleast...hehe (All of you who don't know what Holi is: It is an Indian festival where people put color on each other!!) I had so many things to post about today.. but thought would go first with this one...

I love Mumbai!! Did you ask why?? Because I get to attend amazing events here... :D This Saturday I had the chance to be a part of the much talked about Lakme Fashion Week. I was invited to attend the Make Up Master Class by Natasha Nischol. She is a well known name in the Bollywood industry and has worked for a lot of movies including Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire!

Dilemmas of a part time blogger

Hello ladies!

How have you been doing? Today I am going to talk about something that probably a lot of you might relate to. A lot of the fellow bloggers that I have come across are students or working women who are blogging part time (just like me!). I have gone through both the phases and according to my experience you can still find time to write and other stuffs as a student but as a working women it is impossible! After a year or so in blogging (like I am) it becomes a very important part of your life. And when you don't get time for this, it just makes you so very sad! 

I'll share my very honest experience with you all. Everyday I have been seeing my pageviews and comments decreasing and the worst part is I know I can do something about it but just don't get the time. It is actually a nightmare for a blogger...I mean I do have some time on weekdays...but writing is not just a mode that I can come back from the office and switch on! There are times when I really want to write but simply can't (because of time crunch...random people in my house...etc!!).  I want to give so much of time and write some quality posts and do other things for my blog and all I do is nothing. I come back home at around 8 at night, then I change and do other things and by the time I am on my laptop it is around 10 already. I open my blogger's dashboard and facebook page then. I check out the feeds on facebook and what others have written; all this while planning in my head what to write. And by the time I actually open a new post, I am drained of all my creative energies atleast (and also my mum starts shouting.. "sleep...you need to go to office tomorrow...!!") and I get irritated and sleep. I have actually tried everything from getting straight to writing without seeing what anybody else has done (While I love this approach but it is not possible to get in that inspirational mode on weekdays) to waking up early in the morning for my blog which just leaves me thinking about my blog all day long.

All this has made me so frustrated. But after nearly a month's long frustration I have finally come to this understanding that I can't really do both (work and blog). But the real dilemma is that I can't leave either one! So in the past one month I have really fought with myself and come to this conclusion that instead of writing crappy posts on weekdays just for the sake of satisfying my ego( that I am active on my blog) I would rather shift to being a weekend blogger. Trust me it is not a simple decision when you see your fellow bloggers updating their blogs every single day! I mean it actually really pains that you can't do all that you wish to. But you have to accept this harsh truth that there is just 24 hours a day! 

So my dear dear readers as much as it pains and I am tempted to write on weekdays, I have decided to strictly keep my fingers off my blog on weekdays just to not compromise with the quality. I really hope you all would be supportive about it. And don't worry I would check your comments all week long!! <3 <3

Phew... it feels so good getting all that off my chest! I am so relieved now!

Do let me know what are your thoughts about it? Do you feel the same? Or you have some ways to deal with it.. I would love to know any suggestions!!

What to buy from Bandra street market (Hill Road)?

Hello Ladies!

How are you? I am not so well myself... I am down with flu (and it is not even cold in Mumbai!). :(

So I thought let me utilize this bed rest to write the post I have been meaning to write since so long. This post is for anyone who plans to visit Mumbai and wants a taste of its street shopping or even for those Mumbaikars who have not visited Hill Road, Bandra for a while now.  Bandra (Mumbai) has two street markets namely the Linking Road and Hill Road. I have had a chance to visit both these markets and in my opinion Hill Road is way better! Here is a list of great bargains that you should go for in Hill Road:

My something "mid calf and boho"...

Hello ladies!

Whenever I yearn to give blogging  more time, it always happens that I become more busy! So without cribbing about what happened last week I want to simply move on to the post like nothing happened (lol!)... I have been collaborating with Rosegal.com since November now. First they held a giveaway on my blog and then they sent me this lovely Cartoon character print dress. When I was searching their website it was so difficult to choose just one thing that was below 20$. They have so much to offer all for below 20$! (I had also mentioned my favorites here) The best part about is that they have FREE SHIPPING! I would confess that when it comes to shopping, there are a very few websites that I trust  my money with. And this is definitely one of them. So I recommend this website to all you guys not just for checking out but also for shopping. The last thing that I loved about them was that they didn't bother me with too many collaborating "conditions". Usually you loose all the excitement by simply reading the long list of conditions that the websites give you (I am sure most of you would have experienced!). You would love the website for the stylish designs, economic pricing and most importantly for having no extra hidden costs like shipping!

Coming back to the dress... I don't know where to begin...I chose this dress because it imbibes in it a lot of season's latest trends. It is mid-calf as well has this boho feel to it which are both a hit this season as mentioned here. I love how it appears to be a long skirt with a top (This is as close as I can get to wearing a skirt!). I have styled it with a lot of black and golden accessories. And to complete the look I used red on my nails and lips!
Ooooops...almost forgot to mention... I got a new haircut ladies!! :D

Adlabs and Aztec...

Hi!!

Happy Monday...!!
The weekend is gone so quickly...! I was busy with my sister and her kids lately who were visiting me here in Mumbai...  I can finally catch some breath now since  they are gone ... But damn I miss them... :(

Today I am showing you pretty ladies an outfit I wore recently to visit an amusement park called Adlabs Imagica.

About the outfit:

Remember ladies, how aztec was on fire last year? I was a little unsure about them for this year. But then I saw the collection of many designers (would be writing about it soon!) and the tribal print still goes on strong!! 

The dress is one of my glorious street finds. I spotted this one in Bandra (Would be telling about that too in another post...:) ). I love it for the color and the print. I have paired a pink colored stocking with the dress bought from Pieces ( available at Vero Moda). With this I am wearing my current favorite ballet flats (I wore them here & here). The accessories (pendant, earrings and shades) are from Twenty4 (Fashion store in Abu Dhabi). 

Mumbai So Far...

Hello!

How are you all? I guess all of you are in a great mood due to the holidays! I should be doing a few holiday posts.... (On it now....!!!) :D

Today I have compiled a few pictures of the places that I have been to in Mumbai so far.  I have recently shifted to Mumbai and am loving every bit of it! I hope you like them and get some ideas for the time you visit Mumbai. :)

Rockville is the amazing bar that I hve visited umpteen times! In Navi Mumbai this is as good as life can get... :p The best part is that every night you have ladies night!! So you got free cocktails...
