Sunshine will always be there after shadow!

Sunshine will always be there after shadow. 

March.... I am all excited for this month...reasons..last year this very month i wrote my first post. Yes! It's been year..I never thought i would continue ..i didn't knew where to start with..what to write & what to do..but still i wanted to do something....i thought it as passing phase..which would over soon, but now it seems like never ending relation(though i can't promise about that). I am more than happy as it is growing..the love i am getting in form of comments & likes makes me double happy.
I have not planned anything yet ...about how am i going to celebrate it... (Ideas, suggestion are most welcomed).. but surely i am going to make it special.


As you all know i am going crazy these days in d-i-y's....you can see here & here Yes, designing for myself or you can say custom made... any word but single meaning...i love fabrics. I love to play with them(in sense of design).
They makes me go weak on my knees... but i love all this...it makes me feel proud when somebody compliment & ask from where i got? I proudly says i have custom-made it & there instant reaction is, you should open up a boutique or a design house..& I am flattered!
Enjoy the pictures & do tell me know about the skirt. I was attracted to this fabric for its camouflage feel but the best part it stands out because of its color. Slight hi-low design on side.







Skirt- custom made
Top- Mango
Cape-custom made
Shoe- Charles & Keith

Matching-matching!

Hello..  Merry Christmas everyone! I know i am little late to wish.. but wishes are wishes :)


Delhi has been blessed with sunny days in-between teeth chattering winters. It's the perfect time to explore the city n enjoy it. Which is actually i am doing these days..& will do more in coming days. :)


This winters i didn't want my dressing to be a jeans-sweater-jacket dressing just like all the years till date... because i felt "SAFE" in that.. Yes.. I wanted to come out from my comfort zone of jeans n experiment with the summer stuff..though with the twist ;). I have been experimenting a lot these days with looks, colors, style.

So, here i am... Mixing two colors- soft peach + Azure Blue ... Did you like the color-combo??? Btw.. this is what i wore on Christmas Day.!

Funny part or rather romactic part ...can't decide..... My hubby while clicking pictures says to me ..."Your tee small squares n bag color is matching-matching". I am loving the attention he's giving to me while clicking... I didn't knew he noticed such small things. These little gestures makes me happy.! :)






Happy Weekend !

CAPE Inspired by Nikhil Thampi!

This D-I-Y project is inspired by Designer Nikhil Thampi..  When i saw it for the first time...it was like OH I WANT IT ...but yeah spending so much.. so..it was like let it be.. !


I had this net white self design fabric in my 'box'(read here, extra fabrics.. or fabrics i buy n then they are not used).. which was 2 n half meter.. i took that n gave it for dye..
P:S  Red was the last option- I wanted it to be :-
     1- Royal Blue
     2- Fuchsia Pink
     3- Military Green
     4-Yellow/Ochre
After all the confusion i settled for RED(my love for red will never end... U can see HERE n HERE). I got a cotton lining of same colour & gave to a local tailor to stitch it(not even a boutique).. After little hesitation if he could do or not i showed him the pic of what i was expecting with little changes here n there.... He took measurements n made sure that my fabric was in GOOD HANDS.
Fingers crossed for almost a week.

VOILA totally in love...It flattered my body.. The best critic (My Hubby), appreciated it... :)
So, i am actually on cloud 9.
Now.... It didn't costed me a bomb & i am overall happy with the finishing part also.  :)
Tell me what u think... Did i made right choice with the fabric.. Did my tailor did justice (i told u i was inspired & i am not copying his design ;)
Have a look at the pictures.. Is this cape totally worth??... Will you go n get it stitch for yourself??
I am just making sure that i have NO INTENTION TO HURT ANYBODY SENTIMENTS(especially the designer).

 Now, the cape is little longer than the original one. Styling here with simple blue denims & turtle neck. I want all the focus on cape so opted for a snakeskin printed wedges n kept jewellery to minimal.


Denims- Benetton
Turtle neck top- Biglife
Cape- Got it made from Local tailor
Wedges- Charles n Keith
Watch- Guess
Earings- Thailand

The Colonial Hill Station !


October is just a week away.... & can feel the winter mist in air(i know winter is NO-were till november mid)...
It's been 7 months since i visited this colonial hill station, Kasauli. I loved that place...it was not busy..it was not touristy..yet it had everything we were looking for a 2 night stay.. Started our drive early morning....n through the Chandigarh highway we reached...by evening rain n fog thought to join us...The narrow roads slither up and down the hillside and it offer some magnificient views...The drive was very slow due to fog and we reached around dinner time to our rented colonial bunglow. We spended 1 n half day roaming around the place..watched beautiful sunset(one of the best till date)....and some unforgettable memories(Baby V's first hill station).
P.S-This post is picture heavy.. But trust me you will enjoy it ! :)

En route to our destination !

                                                 Just reached ! have worn these pants here also :)

D-I-Y Ballerina

You know when a shoe is lying in shoe rack for more than 4 years and you wore it for just twice or may be tried  for third time...n you put it back....what that means.. either the shoe was purchased just out of love.. or you were in too hurry... I don't remember what was the case with these suede ballerina... which i purchased from Emami market, Kolkata.. But one thing i knew... i was not in a mood of giving it away... 
So, finally they got a new life..
Inspired by studs and spikes ....i created this for myself with these metal sequins(i stocked them almost 10 years back during my internship)..
Neon orange nailpaint from elle18
Quick fix

                                                                     Materials used

                                                                  I started from back...

                Then did a little touch up in front... slowly covered the piping area with nail paint.

                                                The finished product ..... I am happy with it :)

So, what do u do when something like this just lying in your closet for sooo long..? 
Till next time

Fun in Sun @ Taj Mahal !

Hey all....  When bro visits u after 5 yrs... its automatically calls for celebration... .... how the week passed..i didn't even noticed...can't even hold the excitement of his coming n now he'z already gone.....We were so lost in our worlds... travelling, food, shopping... n we lived every moment(there will be soon more on blog).




                                                                                                                                                                     I started my day (tuesday) on very high note... as we were taking a day trip to Taj Mahal,Agra (hubby had an off on tuesday...yay yay)... we started around 9:30 from home.. reached 12:30... best part was the Yamuna Expressway (delhi-noida-greater noida-agra).... Awww i simply loved the drive....it was sooo smooth..n the weather was too good ...as clouds were playing hide n seek game with me :)

We had a quick lunch at Bikarnerwala(agra) n then headed straight to our destination..
Sun was shinning on our heads....we chatted... posed... laughed n made faces... I love such days... I didn't wanted it to over... But, again.. All good things come to an end..

P.s This is high on photo's ....  ;)





Believe me, i actually jumped n danced on Yamuna Expressway....  :)
