#Blogpost 9- Indigo, the 'Blue Gold'

Image
Popularly said by Marc Jacobs- Clothing is a form of self-expression. There are hints about who you are in what you wear.  This one comes with my favorite concept of style these days, Indigo!  The power of Indigo: –  Stunning deep-blue color – Natural resource: the indigo plant – Natural dye process Hey there,  Are you guys also obsessed with indigo printed bags, cotton kurtas, dupattas etc? I believe, Indigo describes purity and elegance.It simply turns all repression and fears down. How about some blue food vibrations: blueberries, grapes or blue plums!  Last month I visited westside stores, their ethnic section being my all time favorite.  I spotted a solid Indigo colored kurta and also tried a lot to add any block printed dupatta in Indigo but failed. (I'm still up with the mission though) But till then, I thought of wearing the same like a casual dress. Here is the look that I created with the kurta, an Indigo block-printed bag and so...

#Blogpost 8- Various problems,one solution- Aloe Vera!

This blog post is about this genius plant species which is everything you need to have for a glowing skin, hair and good health.Various researchers and facts have already proved the best from Aloe Vera.  I have personally included Aloe Vera in my daily intakes by different means and trust me, results are too good. I thought of sharing some with you.

Aloe Vera being super rich in minerals and vitamins is beneficial for skin brightening and acne issues, hair textures and growth, sun tanning, detoxifying, weight loss, cholesterol and blood sugar, increa...

#Blogpost 7-Don't t take it casually! Styling those everyday casuals.

Image
It's popularly said, dress how you want to be addressed. Buy less but choose well. Casuals is not a style. It is feeling your everyday comfort with elegance and fashion. In the European tradition, casual is the dress code that emphasizes comfort and personal expression over presentation, formality, and conformity. Also referred to as leisure wear. It's great to experiment with your style statement and follow on growing trends but then too who wants to compromise their comfort and ease. Informal, semi-formal or casual wear always comes to a rescue and trust me, there can be nothing more stylish then casual clothing. Firstly, let's start by differentiating between formal wear and casual wear.  Casual wear includes Tee-shirts, jeans, jackets, khakis, hoodies, summer dresses, skirts, sneakers for example when you're going out for shopping or hanging around with your friends. Casual wear is usually made from materials such as cotton, jersey, denim, polyest...

#Blogpost 6- Zaika-e-Lucknow !

Image
I don't claim myself to be a food blogger here but because I belong from Lucknow, writing about its cuisine is something I am really interested in. Nawabs has always been great patrons of art and culture and food automatically becomes an essential part of it. 'Muskuraiye aap Lucknow me hain.' can also be said as 'Kuch khaiye aap Lucknow me hain.' Awadhi cuisine is now a forefront of Indian cuisine and Lucknow was actually the area where most of these food innovations took place.  I'm not referring to any restaurant or name here in particular but generally talking about Lucknow's famous street food joints and places to hoop on. Lucknow has a unique vibe for food and yes we are more than just kebabs! I'm a vegetarian and this adds more when I'm saying this. Like every city, Lucknow has different 'Khomchas' and some famous munching points.  This one is dedicated to those famous and  mouth-watering places which are your must try ...

#Blogpost 5 - Gingham style!

Image
I'm not kidding here, but for this summer, gingham has been a deep down obsession for me!   The classic picnic blanket print just got a refresh! The truth is that gingham does not mean check or checked, it actually means striped. But, when you’re dealing with a fabric that’s over five hundred years old, naturally some things do get lost in translation. "Gingham" comes from the Malayan word genggang, or "striped." The fabric and its trademark checks became increasingly more prevalent until it was one of the most common and recognizable fabrics in the world, seen on Southern literary types, and London bankers alike. Gingham forges on as an integral part of the spring, and summer style landscape and I'm currently craving with gingham footwear, innerwear, bags, hats, skirts etc. This classic check print is great to wear thing this summer and definitely, a must have in your summer wardrobes.  If you're a fan of monochromatic minimal design this one fo...
