Aditi

My little cousin has grown up now. We, inseparables, do crazy stuff whenever we are together. We forget the whole world when we are in each other’s company. She is no longer my little girl; she’s grown! She’s much, much taller than me! When she was little, she was the cutest girl around. Today, she’s grown into a pretty young lady and one of the best friends I have.

We went crazy with this little, random photo shoot we did when I went to her place during Diwali. Adi has beautiful features – a bright smile, a cute nose and eyes that dance every time she talks disclosing the liveliness that resides within her.






Adi’s Mom, my Aunt, herself is very artistic and creative and I know from where Adi gets her genes. Take a note of the beaded neck piece, wooden bangles and chappals. Mami has scoured up all of these from streets like Colaba Causeway and Bandra. My grandfather’s 25 year old Fiat acted as a perfect background!

Fusion dressing will never bore me. How much ever I love denim and stilettoes, wooden jewellery, indian block print and bandhini will always attract me. Indian kitsch (if that’s what indian fusion has turned into), old walls, vintage doors, abandoned old houses, creepers on old walls, chappals – will remain a part of my deep obsessions.

Village Belle

Now that I am back from my trip into the boring office routine, I am forever looking for opportunities to dress up and go out. And EAT, of course!! It is quite surprizing that eating out for 10 days in Europe / airplane / airport / various cafes hasn’t tired me out and I am still hungry for more.

Anyway, this time we choose to go to this place called The Village, which is quite near my place. The main reason I wanted to go there was because I missed attending Garba this year (yes, this year too) and Village has Garba! So I, along with my Gujju colleagues go there and have a blast of a time.

And, ok, there was another reason. I wanted to wear these brand new dhoti pants.

Dangle

I am done with packing for my Europe trip (I leave in 10 days! Yippie!!). I choose smart, pleated short skirts, leggings and boots. I am excited about the trip and have been dreaming about it since ages. Will update ya all, not to worry!

While Europe is all about smart jackets and chequered scarves, I can’t help but feel attracted towards block prints and colourful wooden beads. There is something in mixing western outfits with Indian designs and accessories. It is smart, sexy and feminine.

It is a pleasant, cheery Sunday and am not stepping out today. Hersheys Dark Chocolate bars and ‘Lie To me’ keep me company for today.

The weather is fantastic and makes me want to take a walking tour around the city. The sun burns down on me warmly but not unpleasantly and the winds tease my hair.

I hope this weather stays. Enjoy your Sunday, dearies.
