Monday, 18 June 2012
Hey Lovely Readers !!
Hope you all have participated in The Shopaholic Diaries' 1st Anniversary Giveaway by now ! And if not, do enter now by clicking HERE
All my Indian friends might be knowing about Parachute brand since childhood, because ever since I got my lovely hair( which no longer look lovely ) my grandma used to apply a lot of PARACHUTE Oil on my hair regularly !! And even till now, she asks me to take proper care of my hair and use Parachute oil only !
And I agree with her, as this is so far the best oils I have ever used on my hair which helps keep them healthy !!
So when Parachute contacted me to try out their new Advansed Body Lotion - Summer Fresh, I was excited to see the results ! In summers my skin becomes very dry and it needs
proper moisutrization and care. Parachute promises just the same !

it also gives your skin double protection against the sun rays with its UV A
& B base protection. Parachute Advansed Body Lotion- Summer Fresh penetrates

through the summer!
Hey lovelies !!
I hope you are having a great weekend !! I had an awesome Saturday as I went out with my colleagues to have lunch at TGIF, Gurgaon and later shopping at Sarojini Nagar Market, Delhi.
The market is flooded with asymmetricals, florals, polkas, mints, tangerines, etc. - Basically with allllll the latest fashion trends ! So if you are looking for buying them at throw-away prices, visit Sarojini asap !
Well today's post is all about colors and summers !! I love the fact about summers that we can play around with so many colors and clothes.
Also, you would notice a special thing in this post - Better pictures. Earlier, I had always been asking my friends or cousins to click my pictures but as the college is over and all my friends are back to their hometowns, I was really missing a photographer when finally I met an old friend who has turned to photography now !
And we went last weekend to Safdarjung Tomb, Delhi to have some quick pictures - Hope you like them ! : )
Also featuring in this post is my new bag from Oasap.com in bright yellow, which had caught my eye at the first look ! The fact I loved about Oasap.com is that they have all the latest trends and a wide range of accessories, clothes , shoes etc. and offer FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE !
And this last one is my favorite Pic -
Please IGNORE my frizzy hair - I just could not control them at all !! :X
So pleasee do let me know your views on this post, did you like the quality of the pictures? Should I do more such posts?
Also, I am thinking of giving a complete makeover to the blog- would happen soon ! : )
Loads of love

What one MUST BUY from Sarojini Nagar Market, Delhi !!
Saturday, 26 May 2012
Hey lovely readers !! <3
How are you all doing? Enjoying the crazy hot weather?? :D Lol silly me, how can one enjoy such a hot weather..
Please Rain God listen to us... and give North India some RAINNNNNNNNNN !!! :( :(
I do hope god listens to me soon, anyways getting back to the post- many of the readers have requested me to share my latest Haul post from Sarojini Nagar Market, Delhi! And well as we girls love flea markets so much, I thought of sharing an interesting post about What one MUST BUY from Sarojini Nagar Market !!
If you are a Delhiite, I am sure you must have visited this market or else atleast must have heard your friends boasting about their cool finds from Sarojini at throw away prices.
Well you can get the trendy clothes from Sarojini Nagar too, if you read on to know what you must buy the next time you visit SN market.
You can have a look at my previous posts HERE and HERE on Sarojini Nagar Market, Delhi.
I hope you all liked this post. I am very eager to know about your comments or further suggestions on this !! :)
Also, I have completed shopping for gifts for the Anniversary Giveaway I'll be having in JUNE !! But well lets keep it a secret for now ;) But trust me you are all gonna be surprised :D

Well you can get the trendy clothes from Sarojini Nagar too, if you read on to know what you must buy the next time you visit SN market.
- Florals - This trend can never go out of fashion, and SN proves it too with floral dresses, shirts, tops, skirts etc. available in the market every season, every time and almost at every shop. So if you love this cute trend too, make it sure that you check out the floral collection there.
- Latest Trends - Polkas, Peter Pan collars, leopard prints, lace, sequins or cut-out shoulders, I believe latest trends come to this market even before they reach the fashion labels at major malls in India. So if you want to own the latest runway trends at throw away prices, make sure to search for them at our very own SN.
- Day dresses - Going for a vacation, casual day out with friends or a lunch date, and unsure about what to wear? Well cute day dresses in cotton and chiffon are a must buy and you'll get them from SN in not more than 200-250 bucks. You can try out short, knee-length and maxi dresses in various patterns which are available at most of the shops.
- Shorts / Skirts - Though finding your waist size might be an issue, but if you know how to get your fit from flea markets, SN has huge options for you. From leopard prints to polka dots, the market has even skirts and shorts in elastic pattern for those who don't want to risk buying a smaller or bigger waist.
- Wardrobe basics - Shrugs, vests, camisoles, stockings - you name the color and they have it. I find it stupid to spend thousands on these wardrobe basics which I know I'll be using often and thus replacing them every season. So I find it better to buy them from SN in different colors to mix and match.
- Accessories / Sling Bags - This market has a huge range of accessories like jewelry, scarves, hair pins and awesome sling bags and clutches which are available at reasonable prices so that you can buy as many as you want to mix and match with your outfits.
And well a very IMPORTANT TIP- Carry not more than 1000 - 1500 INR ( around 30$) in your wallet, or else trust me you'll end up spending every penny !
Also keep an extra 200 INR in your secret pocket of the bag or jeans or give it to your companion before you start shopping, which you should take out ONLY and ONLY IF you are done shopping, and while leaving, you spot a Gorgeous item which you just can't miss and want it very badly. ( Trust me this always happens, the most gorgeous items I have spotted there are always when am done shopping with and have no other penny to spend :D )
I hope you all liked this post. I am very eager to know about your comments or further suggestions on this !! :)
Also, I have completed shopping for gifts for the Anniversary Giveaway I'll be having in JUNE !! But well lets keep it a secret for now ;) But trust me you are all gonna be surprised :D

Hey friends !!
I am at home currently and totally enjoying with loads of shopping and sleep :D But the weather suckss !! : ( I sooo much hate summers..
Anyways I have been very irregular with my blogposts this month, because otherwise I make sure to write atleast twice a week. Not only to be in constant touch with my readers, but also because writing for my blog gives me a satisfaction !! : ) Soo I would definitely try to be more regular now !!
BEWARE - This is going to be a really longggggggg Post !!!
Back to the title of the post, I read about this Blog Project/Campaign where majority of the bloggers are sharing few things they are afraid to tell their readers. Reading their thoughts, I found myself agreeing to many of them and well finally I am also going to share my personal thoughts with you all which I had always been afraid of, thinking I might be laughed at or disliked for it !!!

- I am not photogenic/model-like - I love getting myself clicked and always keep pestering my friends or cousins to click my pictures whenever we go out. But its a truth that I am not a Size-Zero or have a very photogenic face. That is why earlier when I had started my blog I was afraid of posting my pictures because I thought I looked fat and ugly, and why would one be interested in looking at my outfit posts !! But my thinking changed once I followed more fashion blogs which looked more realistic and gave me the confidence to show my imperfections too. But still I don't call myself a fashion blogger completely because in my mind somewhere I think a Fashion Blogger needs to be very beautiful and having a slim figure !! Infact I sometimes feel insecure and wish I was taller and slimmer looking at some fashion bloggers who look just PERFECT : |
Hey lovely readers !! I hope you all are doing great !!
I am finally going home again this weekend after about 3 months !! I am sooo excited to see my family after soo long.. hehehe !! : )
And well before I leave for home and don't get time to write a new post, here comes an outfit post which I am totally in love with because it has my favorite trend- Polka Dots !! : )
This outfit post was lying in my drafts since 3-4 weeks as I had worn this dress long time ago while going clubbing with my friends. You can even see the door of my hostel room in the 1st pic though I am now putting up in Delhi !!
Dress- Vero Moda Heels - Fornarina Accessories- Globus |
This tube dress I had purchased from Vero Moda and it has 2 layers of net with differently sized polka dots. I wore the dress with thin straps to have a more elegant look !!
So what about you divas !! Do you like Polka dots?? Do share with me your favorite trend of this season..Would be back with a new post soon.
Loads of love
Nitika
Heyaa divas !!! How are you all doing??
So am back this time with an Outfit post !! Though again I couldn't get nice pictures.. I am really missing my friend who used to click lovely pictures of me in college . I guess I'll have to look for a nice photographer friend soon !! :D
Yesterday at a casual outing with friends, I wore this plain black dress I had purchased long time back from Forever 21 but never really got to wear it and the gorgeous tan bag I recently purchased from a Facebook store- Zephyr Couture !!! I loved the studs which really make the bag look attractive and funky!! Don't you agree??
This cute little Lace Top I had thrifted long time back from Sarojini Nagar Market, New Delhi and is one of my favorites !!
That's all for now. I need to share some important happenings in life with my lovely readers, but well am waiting for an appropriate time !! Till then, don't forget to check my new posts at Maazu.com by clicking HERE.
Would catch you all soon with a Haul post. If you want me to do some special posts on trends, what to wear for some particular occasion, etc., or have any other queries, do mail me at- theshopaholicdiaries@ymail.com
