Hey fellas..
How are you all doing?? I have come back home today as its my mom dad's 25th Wedding Anniversary this Sunday , so we are having a small Paath ( religious recitation ) at our place.
Anyways as I came back I got hold of today's newspaper and saw something which made me very proud being an Indian..
Heheheh.. Its nothing that some Indian got awarded or something, but just that how Indian designs & customs are now being famous Outside India.
Here are a few examples from the recently organized 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards in California.
Hollywood actor Catherine Rusoff donned a Salwar Kameez complete with heavy embroidery on the panels, a dupatta & traditional jewellery to go with it at the red carpet and she looked Gorgeous.
What do you all think?

On the other side actor,at the same event, Guy Pearce' wife Kate Mestitz flaunted a Lord Ganesha tattoo on her back which had a beautiful design.
Hey everyone..
Hope you enjoyed the weekend. I pretty much enjoyed this entire week thanks to my shopping sprees and theater workshop I joined at college for which we performed a street play today.
I went out shopping Sarojini Nagar twice again, once last Saturday and another few days ago. Both the times I went out to assist my friends but well it seems, I ended up buying more clothes than my friends had bought together :P

I guess the best part shopping at Thrift stores is that you can end up buying more clothes than you can buy in the same amount from a branded store.. Its funnn.. But well certainly, I believe, thrifted goods don't match up in quality as of the branded goods. Do you agree???
Anyways this is what I was wearing during my last shopping trip with my friends. I had bought this cuteeeeeee Coat from a local store (in my hometown) and bought the Asos pants online which were last mentioned here.
The bag was gifted to me by a friend, and I guess its most useful while shopping at Thrift markets as you can stuff it up without having to carry small Polythene bags the shopkeepers give to you for purchasing each item.
I went to Lifestyle ( Noida, India ) yesterday and purchased a veryyyyyy cuteeeee Polka dots skirt which I would be wearing to a party soon.. So an exciting OOTD would be up soon. I have purchased a lotttttt of things in the past week which I do want to share but then it would lead to clicking sooo manyy pictures which I cannot do right now, as I have a couple of interviews coming up.
Do let me know if you want to see my hauls, I would share them up with you next week or I have other interesting posts to write too : )
Till then, Take care.
Loads of love

I am not very fond of applying cosmetics, but yes I am veryyyyyyyy fond of buying them and using them once in a while ( occasionally or when I am feeling to look lil good :D ).
I had heard about VIOLETBAG.COM since a long while but was waiting to purchase something I really need from them.
And then came my friend's birthday, I was thinking of what to get for her and then finally when she told me that she lost her lip gloss I decided to get her one from Maybelline Color Sensational range ( and also a book - XL to XS because she always cries about being FAT- ufff...).
Also I had heard about Maybelline's Gel Eyeliner so I purchased it to try it out and bought a Maybelline Hypercurl Mascara & a Lakme Sheer satin gloss shade no. 21 .
 |
| Lakme Lip gloss Shade no.21 |
 |
| Maybelline Lip gloss Touch Of Toffee |
Sorry but I forgot to add the swatches, I'll add them soon. : )

Rest I guess you all must have read the reviews about the website at different sources, so that's all for now.
I went to Vero Moda yesterday- couldn't find much because the veryyy good stuff had lower discounts and they had added stock from previous sales too; but yes I bought a dress , a top & a jeans. Also I bought a Jacket from Woodland- they are having a flat 40% off on Apparels. You all must check Woodland for their smart jackets.
Would be going to Zara & Mango next week, would share my hauls soon. Right now am back to watching GOSSIP GIRL, coz am ADDICTED to it :D

Hey everyone !!!
My 100 Followers Giveaway is now officially CLOSED and I would be announcing the winners in 2-3 days. I went shopping again yesterday with my friends, infact I Was guiding them on how and what to shop in SAROJINI NAGAR, Delhi. I got amazing stuff this time from SN- few summer tops, jackets & a woollen poncho which I would share with you all later.
Last month I had went home during Christmas-New Year holidays and did some shopping. We don't have Christmas celebrations in this part of India ( Punjab-NCR) much except casually going out with friends & family and cutting a cake or munching pastries.
As there was no Santa getting me gifts, my dad became SANTA and gave me some money to SHOP..
And well I invested it wisely ( I think so, but you all can tell me better if I did invest the money wisely or not). I bought the following stuff from some local boutiques.
I am looking forward to wearing the Beautiful RED woollen shrug soon for a party, can you please guide me what to wear it with?? I am thinking of pairing it up with WHITE pants but can't decide upon a top.
Anyways my next shopping haul would be on Wednesday now, when am planning to check out ZARA, Mango & Vero Moda- Only, I hope I find good stuff and then I'll take a break of atleast 2 weeks before I shop anything MOREEEE.. I promiseeeeeeeee... I just hope I stay by this promise coz I just CANNOT RESIST SHOPPINGGGGGGGG :((
Take Care. Thanks for stopping by and reading the post.
Loads of love & hugs.

Good morning lovely readers..
Hmmm.. So it turns out I still don't have a job, I kind of hadn't liked the package & the profile offered by the last company in which I appeared so I don't feel bad. We have better companies visiting our campus.
Anyways back to the post, the haul is not even that latest as it sounds by the title. I had gone shopping at Sarojini Nagar 2-3 weeks ago but couldn't post about it. So thought of finally sharing them all with you.
Ansh from Vanity No Apologies recently posted a very nice write-up about shopping at Sarojini Nagar, so I don't think I need to explain more about the market. Also I have shared about it earlier in this post.
So coming directly to what I bought from the market this time-
I had also bought a Black off-shoulder sweater which I was earlier wearing here.

Anyway I decided to write a post to get outta this boredom & tiredness..
Today I want to share with you all a brand of bags I have personally liked for a while now from amongst many Private labels growing through Facebook.
CUPIDITY is a brand By Karishma & Masumi .
From totes, wallets, shopping bags, satchles, cross shoulder bags, laptop sleeves, ipad covers & makeup pouches, they offer it all, with an added advantage of easy home delivery & payment options.
They can even customize bags for you all as per your requirements.

Happy New Yearrrrrrrrrr everyone... I know am a lil late in wishing u all, but I was a lil occupied yesterday so couldn't write a post.
Being away from my family, I spent my New Year Eve with my friends at our College Party held in the campus itself. It was a fun night with a BORINGGGGGGGGGG DJ but yesss amazing Friends though I missed my best friends who had gone home that time.
But I managed to have some fun yesterday night too { winkk winkkk ;) } ..
Being a chilly night & coz we are not allowed to wear dresses, I decided to mix & match a lil casually.
So this is what I was wearing-
 |
| Sweater Dress- Thrifted ( Promod) Black Top- Local Boutique Black Tights- MAX Shoes- Local Store |
 |
| Jacket- Thrifted |
Till then wishing you all once again a very Happy & Prosperous New Year !! : )
Loads of Love & Hugs
