Blooming Dales

The most difficult part about blogging for me is clicking pictures on the road, more so because it is so difficult to find an empty lane in India! And yes, taking  pictures  is a very exciting affair here, so when people spot me on the road getting clicked, everyone's curiousity is aroused. A few curious onlookers even wanted to know why i  was so self obsessed :-)

Is it just me or do you guys out there face something similar ?

Fashion Featured: Meet the Diva

This is the first post in a new series titled "Fashion Featured", aimed at showcasing trend setters in fashion.


Meet the Diva


Introducing one of my favorite blogger friends The Dusk Devi. 

My first reaction when i chanced upon her blog was i needed some exercise right away!  This charming and confident lady would sure find herself giving Tyra and her entourage of models a lesson or two in poise.

Her energy and love for life is contagious in nature. Although she stays far away down under (Austrailia), her love for the Indian culture is evident in her blog. She practices yoga , some kinda of rope dance (which i am sure only 10 people in the world can do), is a professional Flamenco dancer and to top it all she makes cosmetics! She even used to be a model and her pictures from those days are a treat indeed.  Ah I remember reading some where in her blog that she was a journalist as well. I am sure there is a lot more i don't know about .

Is there anything this Diva cannot do ?   ^_^ .

temple shoots

The best thing about Hindu Temples here in India is the  vibrant colorful exterior and interior , Inspirational . 

There are so many colors mixed together ,can never go wrong , just follow the walls .I have drawn most of my colorful extravaganza from these walls .

But i do often visit them for the yummy food  :-)

And the Romper obsession continues

Love it when i discover one of these little known shops which have hordes and hordes of awesome stuff ,also as an icing on the cake it turned out to be so affordable. While i love discovering shops like these, at the same time i am worried if the scene here will be one similar to the movie "Confessions of a Shopoholic"  .But could this buy be resisted ?

While on a road trip i try not to wear any jewelery or carry anything expensive ,especially when its just a bunch of girls taking the trip.Now we wouldn't wanna get mugged would we :-)

The Tuchi Inspiration

Recently on the street style blog Wear About India ,My favorite and one of the very few ,that documents street style in India, came across a post about Tuchi,a couple of girls who come up with super cool designs.One of the deigns was this simple plain neat cut white dress , so fell in love with the dress that i decided to get it tailored .

                      Made some friends on the way :)

                       Its so versatile that a little change in accessories will give a whole different look
