A Few Realizations !!

A few things about me that i have realized lately:
** I am getting bored with the things very easily. I start something with my full energy and than after a certain period of time, its all over and i have to move on to something else.
** I cannot resist the wastage of energy resources like power, water ( at least at my house) and can every stop doing anything to close a light/ fan or water tape that is not in use.
** I need one more vacation. I know i am just back from a vacation but i am not recharged to get back to work and need a really looonnng vacation(yes, this much long only)
** Working for your own gives you more satisfaction than working for someone else. Mr Husband used to tell this always but i am realizing it now.
** My time to reach office is even reaching 11 am now(i used to reach office by 10 am before while my office starts with 9 am) as i can't wake up early in the morning. In-fact i woke up late than before.
** Its better to directly say NO instead of just talking about here and there and than feel bad.
** Mr Husband is out of town again and I MISS him. :(
** I still miss my cosmetics that i lost with my bag.
** When you enter into a new task/world, only after that you realize the actual complications of it. Everything seems fantastic from a distance.
** Being Lazy is not a best thing in the world but it still feels awesome.

Quick Hello !!

Hey Ya People..
How you have been doing? Its been long(almost a month) i have been MIA coz i was out of town for vacation. As i told before here, i was visiting my home town and i had a GREAT time with my family and friends. It always feels heaven when you are with near and dear once on special occasions but i missed blogging and i missed all the wonderful people on the blog too. Have nothing much to write and this is just a quick HELLO to all the lovely people on the blog.

 This is what i wore on my last day of vacation when i was travelling back to Hyderabad.

The weather in north has started chilling and even have fog in morning and evening hours. I love these pics taken in morning hours, it looks like i am at some hill station.

 Is not the background just amazing?

 Our flight got delayed for 3 hours and we got some time to spend in Delhi. This pictures are taken at Connaught Palace.

A random click by brother while i was getting ready for the next picture. But i loved it.

A Grayish Day

I am very happy these days and the reason is, finally I am going on vacation and will be visiting my mom's and MIL' place.. YEEEYY. This has the longest duration( a complete year) since I did not visit my home but finally i am going home and i have started planning too **SMILES**.  I will be meeting my cousins and recall all our old memoirs, have my favorite  panipuri and chats (which i don't like in Hyderabadi taste), spend some quality time with mom dad (very important), sleep in my room(i still miss my room) and lot more things....

For those who are new on blog or don't know, I have been living in Hyderabad with Mr Husband for approximately 3 years but even then i do not feel it like i am at home and it still feels like its just a flat where we are living for the job and the earnings. It might be because we don't have many friends or family members here or there were few times when we could not make it to be with family in their happy or sad moments or coz of different culture/ people around us or we are too busy in work and other stuff. Whatever it is but i still don't feel it home and always wish we could relocate to Delhi. Actually when we are surrounded by our close ones or we can celebrate our happiness with them or we can meet them whenever we feel also, it feels like you are  Home.

Lets move to the outfit. This is what i wore today for the grocery shopping over the weekend. 

I absolutely love the black-grey combination. I feel its one of the combination which is classy and can be tried fr any occasion when you are confused about the colors.

I had tried a few neck-piece with this outfit but  i was not satisfied with the complete Look that was coming with the neck-piece. They  were somehow not matching with the top's style and so i removed it.

Please ignore my eyes as it happens most of the times in my pics. It looks like i am drunk and losing all my senses.. LOL. 

On Me: Top: Code,

Jeggings : Forever 21
Shoes: Catwalk

PS:All the pictures are taken in my society's balcony. So if you found some funny/ weird stuff a the backside, please avoid it.

Black and White !!

PS: If you are unmarried, you might not be interested in the post. 
So (if you want) you can directly move to the outfit.

Today i read the give status post on FB.

If u are single, they ask about BoyFriend/fiancé. 

When u have a fiancé, they ask for wedding. 

When u get married,they ask for children. 

Once u have one,they ask for another. 

if u get divorced,they ask why. 

If you try to start ur life again, they ask why so quickly. 

People never like what u do.

 If u are proud of who u are & don't care about what people think, share it, because it's your life and you should live it the way you want to.People Get A Life !!!

Well i did not repost it as i hate spamming on FB and i dont need to prove anything about anything but while reading this message, i realize that i am also going though one of its phase (the third one). Its going to be 3 years(in few months) of my wedding and a few questions that has been asked me again and again by the family/ friends/ relatives/ neighbors are: When you are going to have a kid? Its been years(feel like i got married few centuries ago), why you guys are not planning for the kids? Well its our personal life and our decision when we will have a child. Why the hell do you care about it. If i'll get a child, are you going to feed him/her? Who is going to take care of the child? Its none of your business what and why are planning about our life. We are happy with our current life and do not want to have more responsibilities, why do you poke your nose in my personal matters. We too want to have the child, but why do you care about WHEN? We will have it whenever we want to have one.


Its easy to explain the family, what we think and what we are planning about but when it comes to relatives or neighbors, i really don't understand what should i reply them and why should i explain them. There is always a age difference, so we cannot be so rude also and sometimes it becomes very complex to explain. In fact i feel they have nothing to with our life and these questions are asked just to know what is happening in our life.

Did you also face the same situation? If yes, what you did?

On the other node, this is what i wore on Sunday for shopping with cousin.

Black and white is my all time favorite combo and i wear it whenever i am confused while dressing up. As i told here before, one need to very conscious when dressing up in Hyderabad, I wore the tights with this floral dress.

A closer look .. :)

I so love these booties. They are a perfect combo of heels with comfort. I got them from ASOS some time back but never get a change to wear them coz of the weather conditions (its too Hot here). I really wish we would have some winters in Hyderebad also so that we could also enjoy the Fall items like boots and all.

Coral and the Wrap on!

P.S.: I have nothing much in my mind. So this is going to be photo heavy post

I am having a super weekend with husband, cooking experiment(recipe post will be coming soon) and arranging my wardrobe. 

This is what i wear on Saturday for -No Reason coz i just wanted to get dressed as  Husband is back home and i wanted an outfit post **SMILES**. Days in Hyderabad are getting hotter as Fall is coming(there is nothing like so called Fall in Hyderabad) and now there are no rains too, so i decided to go for a skirt.

 I got this mid length wrap on skirt from a handloom exhibition from mumbai in 2007 but had wore it just once. It's in cotton, have stripes and perfect for the current weather. So i decided to team it up with a basic coral top.

I wanted to add a belt to the skirt but as its a wrap on and has a knot at the back so could not get it right. A no so closer look of jewelry .

On Me: Top: Splash

Skirt : Handloom exhibition

Shoes: Old to remember

Neck-Piece: Dazzling Bling

Earing: Mumbai Linking Road

If you have noticed, i have not cropped my face in the pics. With time i am getting more confident in blogging but i still have fear of pictures getting misused. But as i want to do it, i am sharing pics with copyright statement somewhere in middle, keeping less changes for reuse.

How you guys are doing over the weekend?

Color me RED

A friend cum reader asked a question to me that why do i crop my face in the photograph that i post on the blog? while i share the photograph over the facebook page.

Actually there are two reasons for this. First,that concerns me more, is the misuse of pictures. I had faced this issue when orkut just started and did not had any security settings (if you have joined at that time, you must have an idea how bad it was), I posted some group photographs with my friends on my profile and a guy(whom i didn't know) downloaded the pics and posted them in his profile. Once we post something on the web, we have shared it to the whole world and even if we remove it from our profile, its still can be there somewhere. As i told over the blog here, i take time to open up with people and over the web, its all virtual and i don't who all is visiting the blog, i am just avoiding that. May be with time, i will get more confident on sharing the stuff over the web. I know you must be thinking, if i am so afraid of all this, why don't i stop blogging. Buts that's me.. :) I have posted my complete pics before here and here, its just like i play safer. 

Secondly, most of the time, my face comes in weird/funny expressions in the pics so i just crop them too... ;). See i am sleeping again in the pics.

This is what i wore the other day for shopping, followed by the dinner. A very basic and comfy outfit containing tunic and tights with some accessories.

I tried to fill the color in the outfit with red tights and accessories.I think they made the outfit a success. 

Tunic: W, tights, neckpiece : Westside, bangles : Yebhi

wedges: Inch-5

A closer look of the bangles.

With time i start getting the pain with the heals and switch back to the comfy ballerina.

Do you also feel the same on web privacy?

Indian look on Birthday

Hey lovely people,

Sorry for being mia for some time but its not my fault. I had been facing issue with the blogger and was not able to log in. Initially i thought , it must be some bug with blogger but than i found that everyone else is posting on their blog. There had been some weird thing that has happened with my account but i finally got it back. Did someone else also faced the issue?

Well i'll start with my Birthday.I had a wonderful day and had cake ceremony two time- at home with husband and office with colleges, followed by a dinner date with the husband. Birthday is the day when you are really treated special by everyone almost everyone (love it).  I wore a saari on the birthday which i do not wear in my daily life or i'll say i dont know how to wear it perfectly.And you guys will not believe it took me more than a hour to get it done but the point is i got it done.. YEYEYE... Here is a pics in sari and do tell me if i did a justice to it.

Please excuse the not so good picture quality (as it was taken in the night) and serious expression.

Actually i started something else for the post but could not complete it for some reasons. So it is a quick post on my birthday updates. Hope you guys understand.

So howz you guys doing on your weekend?

Stripes!!!

Hey lovely People,


I had a rocking weekend as my cousin visited us for the first time.We had long conversations about our childhood activities and masti.. :). It always feel awesome to recall your memories and enjoy them with your pals. Is not it?
 We surf around the city as it was his first visit to Hyderabad.On Saturday, we went to Chutney's, a traditional South Indian, for the breakfast. They are one of the restaurants that serve best south Indian food and as they name says they serve 4 different types of Chutney , a variety of south Indian items like dosa, idle, uttapam etc along with the other c. I just love the food there.Other than food it has impressive ambiance too.
If you have plans to visit Hyderabad and taste the south Indian cosine's, i will strictly recommend you  to go for Chutney's. They are one of the bests in Hyderabad.


This is what i wore for the day. Stripes, checks and prints are already in fashion this spring/summer and i too tried the Stripes this time (however i did not play much with the colors). It is quite HOT in Hyderabad these days so i have restricted the accessories to minimal.

How was your weekend. Do share with me in comments..

With Love
