Who is your inspiration? However cliché that might sound but that’s the question that is genuinely going in my head when I see people with amazing personal style. The beauty of personal style is that it’s personal to each of us. Inspiration is all around and the way we incorporate in our lives/style is what makes us all wonderfully unique. Speaking of personal style – my addiction for peter pan collars, ruffled sleeves and sweatshirts was inspiration for this outfit. This look is about everything I love! I got this dress from a local brand in Tokyo and I love it, I’m trying to find a similar one here to keep in my shop. Everything else I’m wearing is thrifted. I have been thrift shopping from ages and I’ve always found something that suits my style and budget. Last week I went to shop alone to a mall where two of my favourite stores were recently opened (Forever 21 and H&M). But what I realised after 3 hours of shopping was that I couldn’t find anything that I could relate to. I was really shocked and amazed at myself that in three hours of roaming in these two stores – all I bought was a pair of socks. I’m stuck with thrift shopping for life! 😀

Until next time!

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! 🙂
