Dressing for Dandiya nights, when you don’t have a chaniya-choli! #NavratriMustHave
Happy Navratri! A few years ago, I used to plan and prepare for Navratri nights weeks in advance with my white plastic bangle sets, authentic outfits, and accessories. I even had a family friend courier the outfit to me from Ahmedabad, because the patterns there were so updated and prettier from the ones here in Pune. Did you also take a 3-day crash course in Garba pre-navratri? School dandiya night, society dandiya, and ones in the clubs here in Pune. Then came those random events at grounds where TV stars would come and give away best-dressed awards and best group Garba awards. My God the pressure used to be intense. Some…

Cold Shoulders and Ripped Jeans! #TrendAlert
Who knew giving a cold shoulder would be cool! Cold shoulder tops are the rage right now. And they are so perfect for the summer. What I love about them is the perfect balance of skin show and hide!

Try them in basic colours with interesting denims like the one below, or even pair this with a fitted skirt for a casual chic vibe. These looks also show my love for basic solid colours and how black and white are the answers to…

Move over coconuts, eggs to the rescue! Mane Management Tip.
Recently while in a makeup workshop, the hair and makeup expert said that soon we will all be wearing hair extensions.

Then came in something i have not been able to put away, as I grew used to it! Eyova. Have you heard of egg oil yet? Yes, eggs, they can make your mane…

Shoes your wardrobe is begging for! #JugniFinds
Before the international brands came in, before the malls raided our pockets, before we could walk in to a hundred stores to buy one thing; there was one market, one store and one fixed place for all things we needed here in Pune. Cakes at Kayani, Grocery at Chandan, Sandwiches at Marzorin, and shoes at ABBA. Abba (like the music band) has been the jewel on main street for over 20 years. Walking into this store will never be less than a memorable experience, friendly staff, great service and almost always available footwear; the kind you’ll like and the kind which fits like a dream! Having a foot size of…
