Hey Lovelies!

Today, I am penning down not just for you to read but to run fast and grab some amazing offers at Pacific Mall. Recently I visited Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden to meet one of my friends and likewise she was again late, but as you guys know, waiting at Shopping Mall is not that difficult for a girl especially when she is a shopaholic like me.


 I was roaming around and clicking some pictures at the Atrium of the mall which had a huge replica of “Statue of Liberty” standing straight and it was something unseen in Delhi. I was already amazed by the beauty and grandness of the Statue and suddenly I encountered a board of Sale which made me excited and forget every other thing.

And what else a Shopaholic can demand for? I immediately steeped inside my constant Brand Zara which gives me the most desirable fit and also offers vast range of collection. From there I shopped a formal check Blazer and amazing trousers and a pair of shoe to uplift my attire.


And while I reached at the billing counter, a Salesman told me about the ongoing offer in the mall, he said if one could manage to buy worth of Rs 15,000 from anywhere in the Mall he/she can get a chance to win couple trip to Europe and the offer could be availed till December 31st. Then I decided to check out every new store opened in the Mall and there are some 18 new stores in the Mall…Oh wow!!

By the time my friend also arrived and both of us visited every store in the Mall and actually managed to shop more than Rs 15,000. Though discounts & offers were running everywhere but still the collections at the stores were not giving a feel of end of season sale. So, we actually decided not to shop for ourselves only but to shop for family and friends as Christmas and New Year is right at the corner and nevertheless it is the perfect time to surprise and pamper your loved ones.

We got a beautiful piece of chandelier from Home Décor and I bought some toys for my nephew from Hamleys to gift on Christmas. And a beautiful Saree for my mom from Meena Bazar is foremost the best present I could get for her.

Coming back to my shopping list, I shopped from many stores but some of my shortlisted Favorite ones are:-

• GAP – Positioned on the ground floor, the new store features an entry spanning the width of the store which eliminates a window facade. This allows you to see directly into the store and engage with the product quickly.

The range features ‘Feel Good Jeans’, and as well as denim and leggings in an array of colors and prints.

• Vero Moda –Elegance and Modernity could be well defined at Vero Moda. The new exclusive collection was oh so breathtaking; I got 2 dresses from the store which have become my new favorites. And if you want to check out my love for Vero Moda, go through my Lookbook and you will find numerous looks that I styled using the great outfits the brand offers.

Go and check out the best ones now and add something nice to your wardrobe!!

• ALDO –  ALDO positioned on the ground floor in the Mall can never disappoint you, extensive range and smooth leather base hand bags with iconic designs can also make your college going casuals little more stylish; while they also have the best boots in town to beat the chill this season.

• Forever New – Collection in Forever New can make you go crazy and when the store has some amazing winter collection, it is undoubtedly a cherry on the cake. I will suggest if your Christmas and New Year’s shopping is still not done, you should not skip shopping from the brand.

• MAC – If you follow me on Instagram regularly, you would have known it now that my favorite make up brand ever is MAC, which is the world leader in color cosmetics with an exclusive high quality range. 

And as a Blogger, I believe to use something which has huge range of advanced and professional products and wants to suggest the same. I don’t want to suggest anything which could affect your skin in anyway. So, I will suggest you to visit MAC once and get the best make up for you.

I would call it an unplanned perfect day!! ☺☺☺
Hope you also visit Pacific Mall Tagore Garden soon and shop to your heart's content! Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Hey everyone!
The holiday season is upon us finally, and 2017 is coming to an end. Well, I can't believe how quickly this year has passed yet how slow this month has been. This year has been rather a difficult one for me - as I saw a lot of ups and downs - personally and professionally.

But, the best part of living through the last month of each year is to look back at how things fared for you - where you got wrong, and what you can do to make the new year the best one ever. And that's why I can't just wait for this year to end, so that I can gear up for new beginnings, bigger goals and better things to happen.

Well, I wanted to pour down these thoughts, but coming back to this post - it was shot sometime in November - in the fashion hub of Delhi, Shahpur Jat. I have had this white shimmer skirt in my wardrobe since sometime, but never got a chance to wear it.


Most of us tend to keep shimmers and metallics for evenings or events, but I decided to wear it finally for a daytime look. I paired this Zara skirt with a lacy top and bralette from Forever 21 to compliment the silhouette of the skirt.


A white statement bag from GUESS and wedges from Charles & Keith finished this dressy look, while I accessorized it with a pair of sleek earrings, a beige Fossil watch and a floral Accessorize bracelet.

Wearing metallics in the day can be tricky, but if done right, it can make you stand out of the crowd in a good way. Make sure you balance your shimmer or sequin garment with neutrals and solids.

If you want to go metallic from head-to-toe, pick a delicately sequined maxi dress and pair it with a pair of booties. If sequined outfit sounds too much to try in day, go for a more comfortable look by pairing your monochrome outfit with a pair of sequined ballet flats or a shimmer scarf that can add instant oomph to your look.

Hey everyone!

Winter is finally here but I ain't saying goodbye to off-shoulder tops just yet. Well, off-the-shoulder tops have been my preferred style of dressy tops since long, but this season - I have been loving them all the more as a lot of brands have introduced this style with interesting sleeves to slay and minimal vibes.

That's why, when I saw this pretty wine-colored top from Ridress online, I couldn't stop myself from buying it. From it's schiffli embroidery to the flared sleeves - this top makes dressing up for parties and dinner outings a lot easier.

If you are also diggin' off-shoulder tops this season, here are a few tips to style them with ease :

• Pick a style you feel the most comfortable in, as you won't want to be caught pulling your top up every time you step out. If off-shoulder isn't your thing, go for a boat neck top or a top with thin straps that will give a cool yet comfortable look.

• You can pair your off-shoulder top with boyfriend jeans or jeggings as well for a day look; and add a pair of sneakers for a chic vibe.

• Make sure you have the right lingerie to wear underneath your off-shoulder top, or it can really spoil the entire look. Go for a strapless bra with no seams for a smooth look.

• For winters, you can also pick an off-shoulder sweater or a loose pullover that you can wear off one-shoulder for a trendy look. 

• You can also wear a trendy choker or neck piece to glam up your look; or wear dangler earrings that fall on your shoulders.

Hey lovelies!
It was my birthday yesterday and I had a great time with my friends and colleagues joining in. Even though I am in my late 20s, I still get excited like a child on my birthday and a lot of people find it really funny. But I believe in cherishing every moment, especially when it's your birthday, so I don't let such bitterness affect me in any way.

Talking about bitterness, finally we have relief from the scorching sun and winters has set its foot in North India. I anyway enjoy winters more than summer - simply for the fact that I can finally wear my favorite trench coats and knee-high boots. However, there is still time before winter kicks in with full effect.

For now, I am enjoying wearing one of the hottest trends of the season - off-shoulder. And this peach top from Zara is even more special as it has a trendy bow to jazz up the one-shoulder style. I paired this textured top with my old but still chic ripped jeans from StalkBuyLove.

Top : ZARA Jeans : StalkBuyLove Shoes : ZARA Bag : Michael Kors Sunglasses : Aldo Watch : Daniel Wellington

These blue slip-ons are a recent buy from Zara, to which I was immediately drawn towards, due to the bow details. Plus, they really make a statement even with a boring outfit. I finished the look with a tan quilted bag from Michael Kors - which is a new addition to my wardrobe as well.

Here's wishing you all a Happy November! :)

Hey lovelies!
The festive season is upon us and while Diwali is a week away, you can still work your way to a glowing skin for the main occasion by following a natural skincare regime.

Pollution, work and junk food take toll on our skin, but if a regular skincare routine is followed using natural products - that one can get fresh and bright skin easily.

Well, I am talking about the beautiful range of pure Ayurvedic products from Biotique - my favorite brand when it comes to natural skincare. Biotique is one of the foremost brands in the Ayurveda segment which I have trusted since more than a decade.

The natural skincare products from Biotique not only add a healthier touch to the skin but also make it brighter and youthful - thanks to their formula which is organically pure and preservative free.

L to R : Bio Papaya Scrub, Bio Morning Nectar lotion, Bio Papaya Scrub wash, Bio Dandelion serum and Bio Fruit face pack

 As I gear up for the party season, I have been a following a regular skincare regime which not only includes Cleansing and Moisturising but also Scrubbing and Facials every week.

Bio Papaya scrub wash

No matter how busy you are, cleansing and moisturising your face twice a day is really essential to maintain its health and glow. Bio Papaya scrub wash is an amazing product that can be used this season as it helps dissolve makeup and impurities, while softening and brightening the skin.

Bio Morning Nectar lotion

Follow it up with moisturising the skin with Bio Morning Nectar lotion which is a nourishing lotion that is blended with pure honey, wheatgerm and seaweed. The goodness of these essential ingredients makes the skin fresh and replenishes the lost moisture. It has a travel-friendly packaging which I always keep handy in my bag to moisturise my skin multiple times a day.

Bio Dandelion serum

With stressful work and daily life, I feel that just cleansing and moisturising is not enough for our skin. That's why I also use Bio Dandelion serum after moisturising to reduce the signs of ageing. This serum is packed with Vitamin E and minerals that helps ease away wrinkles and reduce dark spots as well.

Apart from these tips, no matter how busy you are, take out 30 minutes every day to work out in the gym or to go for a walk - as exercise helps increase blood flow and helps getting rid of toxins from the body. Also, make sure you drink atleast 10-12 glasses of water every day and eat a lot of fruits and green vegetables to maintain a beautiful glow on your face.

Hey lovelies!
Hope you all had a lovely weekend. I certainly had a busy but amazing weekend as I got to attend the Cosmo Fashion Weekend with Vogue Eyewear, and with my mom in town, I spent time with her by taking her out to show my new place in Gurgaon and around.

Well, coming back to this post, last month I had placed another order from Kylie Cosmetics when they had a discount offer running, and I ended up splurging like crazy. Also, this wasn't my first order with them as I had initially placed order a few months back for 3 lip kits.

I finally decided to write a review as I now had a great comparison of the custom fees and other details over my two orders, and thought this post would be of help to many readers who want to shop from Kylie Cosmetics or want to know more about online shopping at Kylie.

Kylie Cosmetics Shopping Haul

KylieCosmetics.com as you all know is run/owned by the famous Kylie Jenner, and the products and are exclusively sold through this website. They are not available in physical stores in India yet, but the website ships worldwide.

Here are a few highlights of the product line by Kylie Cosmetics :

• Kylie Jenner products are not tested on animals.

• Kylie Jenner launched Kylie Cosmetics in 2016 after the global launch of her wildly successful liquid lipstick + lip liner duo.

• The brand now also offers eye kits, blushes, highlighters, glosses, and limited edition kits that include brushes, palettes and makeup bags. 

• All shades of The Kylie Lip Kits are vegan.

• International shipping is free on all orders above $60.

In Love with Koko - Lip Collection

My favorite from the lot has to be this kit as it includes three beautiful matte shades and a lip gloss. While I am not a gloss fan, it works really well when applied over the matte lipsticks.

In Love with Koko - L to R - Bunny, Baby Girl, Doll and Sugar Plum

My favorite Kylie product is definitely the matte lip kit - the colors stay put for 6-7 hours and give amazing color in one application. However, if you have dry lips, you might need to apply some vaseline beforehand, as these lipsticks tend to make the lips really dry after 4 hours which would make you rush to apply your vaseline again.

Kylie Matte Liquid Lipstick - Dead of Knight and Dolce K

Dead of Knight and Dolce K

Kylie Velvet & Matte Liquid Lipstick - Rosie, Love Bite and Leo

While the product range is not huge, Kylie Cosmetics does offer a versatile range of shades in liquid lipsticks - especially bold, vampy colors that I am currently a fan of. Have a look at the swatches of three of such lip colors below :
