    ROPOSO SHOOT!

    My favourite season is finally here, hoorayy! I love October, but its been one crazy month that was full of opportunities and I loved every bit of it. One of the really interesting things that happened was – I won a free photoshoot with Roposo. For those who don’t know what it is – Roposo is a social network to share your looks, discover new trends and follow creative people. I was really excited about this shoot because it was also going to be my first professional photoshoot. Along with me, there were three fellow bloggers who won as well and  I knew them before, so it was going to be a lot of fun for sure. So each of us were given 2 themes ( western and Indian). For western, I had to work around layering using summer essentials as winter layering pieces (favourite). And the most exciting part for me was that we had to do this from our own wardrobe. I look it as a personal challenge and decided to not buy anything new for the shoot. I decided to do this because I’ve come to realise that it’s a never ending cycle (hah, yes) It never ends. You always want to buy more and you never have enough clothes. I really really believe in working around with what I have as far as I can. It boosts my confidence in terms of – a) I trust my choice of clothing more b) It helps me stick to what I like and not fall for trends c) It makes me a conscious buyer d) I don’t end up spending crazy amounts of money. I mean when you have access to all the brands and more importantly if you can afford them – 80% of the job is done. Right? You don’t have to use your brain much to dress up well.

    Anyway, coming back to the look – so I chose to do this look with a black skirt, my jack daniels t-shirt (that I absolutely love) with a denim jacket and ankle length boots. I didn’t buy anything new and I was pretty happy with my look. Here are a few pictures, I hope you like them. img_8040-1 ROPOSO SHOOT!

    Nailing the Nail Business – Polish Nail Spa

    Oh hello there! How have you been? I’m sure some of you know that I’ve been fan of all things nail-paints for a long time and I can be often seen doing an impulsive happy dance with my new bright nails. I’m so pleased with all the hand-thrown goodness served up by POLISH Nail Spa. If it also tickles your fancy, find more about them here.

    Special thanks to Gurbani of Spangle Street to arrange this amazing Sunday for all Chandigarh bloggers. With fellow bloggers around, the experience could be nothing but amazing. It was a great opportunity to pamper ourselves and have fun! So, about the experience –  I’m more of a power polish kind of a person (pretty nails for at least 15 days! NO CHIPPING) so I chose that with nail art on top! But you get a lot of other options to choose from like Spa Pedicure and Manicure, Permanent Nail Art, Gel Overlays and Nail Extensions. I was getting this done for the first time and I loved it. Also, when I’m using someones services for the first time, specially skin related – I can be a little crazy about hygiene – but I was so happy and relaxed to see the staff in their proper clothes, absolutely clean workstations, technicians wore masks, machines and instruments were clean and the place was very well maintained.

    My nail technician Martha was really nice and professional. She started the whole process with cleaning my nails, cuticle pushing and filing. After cleaning, she started with the base coat. It took me a while to decide the nail art and then I finally decided to get almost nude colour nails with the hint of glitter on top. I totally love it. I think it suits my personality and reflects many things about it. Martha did a fantastic job and artfully applied the glitter. I love how the whole look came out, I couldn’t stop staring at hands.

    What could be more perfect then getting yourself pampered this festive season? Delicious results with minimal effort! It’s win win, really! 🙂

    Here are a few pictures 🙂
