Outfit post - Varaa's wardrobe :)

And I have again been gone a long time. With a little angel who needs all my attention and who exhausts me completely so that her bedtime becomes mine, blogging has become difficult. But since this is something I love, I will continue somehow :)


While Varaa has already debuted on the blog, I thought it was time to showcase her wardrobe here as well :-) She is 8 months old, but due to the monsoons, I do not take her out much. And she currently lives in shirts, pants and socks; or onsies with full sleeves.

But for going out before the monsoons, I used to put her in a simple frock and socks. So her wardrobe mainly consists of frocks.

Since Varaa has very little hair currently, she looks like a boy. So despite having her ears pierced and though she is in frocks, most people think she is a boy! And my reaction is generally like Rachel's - want to punch the person (Friends fans will understand this ;-)) I am seriously thinking of putting a pink bow on her :D

So presenting her wardrobe below. Do let me know which one is your favorite!!!


PS: None of these fit her anymore :D

Outfit of the Day - Formal to Party

As I mentioned in the previous post, in this post, I converted my formal outfit into party wear by changing some accessories. So in case I need to attend a party straight from office, I am all set!

I removed the jacket and pearl necklace from the formal outfit and instead added silver danglers. I swapped the red purse for a white clutch and changed into silver heels and I was done!

So do you like the dress in its party avatar? Let me know!

Color in Formals - After pregnancy

Hello peeps! While I resumed blogging in March of this year, I have till date been sharing old pics taken during or before pregnancy. This is the first photo shoot after pregnancy and I was so happy to get back to doing OOTDs! :-)

Since Varaa is still quite small, I do not go out much. And when I do go out, it is more about getting Varaa ready and me just grabbing any old thing lying around. So it was a pleasure to again dress up and think about what accessories to wear. 

I wore the shift dress in this post during pregnancy till the seventh month and now it is useful for hiding the post pregnancy fat ;-) For wearing it to the office, I paired it with a cream lace jacket, a pearl necklace and grey pumps. Added a light pink gloss and I was done. And the pop of color from the red purse. Love the elegance that a string of pearls can add to any outfit!

I will also be doing a post on how to convert this outfit into a party outfit if you need to attend a party after office. For now, I hope you like this OOTD. Do let me know in the comments!

Designer wedding dresses at Cocomelody


Its springtime! And while looking at the lovely flowers from my window (will share pics of those in another post), I thought this is the perfect time for a wedding :-) It would be so gorgeous to have an outdoor wedding under these beautiful flowers. Would be like a dream wedding. And thinking of weddings, I decided to visit the Cocomelody website to check out the dresses available there.

Cocomelody also stocks designer wedding dresses which are so beautiful and dreamy. I can imagine myself floating down the aisle in one of these fantastic creations. It would make it the perfect day for any bride :-)

For someone looking for more modest dresses, Cocomelody also offers wedding dresses with sleeves which are just as amazing and so so tempting! So check out some of my favorites and do visit the Cocomelody website to check out their entire range.

Shower time with Beddinginn

I have visited so many places, stayed in so many hotels and bunked in with so many friends. And one of the things I have noticed at all these places, are the different types of shower curtains in the bathrooms :-) Some are plain, some are funny, some are elegant and some are weird :D

So when I came across Beddinginn.com, I was very interested in checking out the shower curtains available on the website. And I was pleasantly surprised to see the wide variety of unique shower curtains they have. They also have luxury shower curtains which are elegant and sometimes quirky! They even have 3D shower curtains which look quite realistic.

To check out the different options available at Beddinginn.com, please click here.

I have some of my favorites from the website here. Let me know what you think!

Guest post: Featuring Mansi again

Mansi featured on my blog quite a long time ago, almost 2 years ago! Well, she is back again ... and this time with her family which includes her husband Bhavesh and her cute little kids - Krisheev and Aavishka :-)

Mansi is one of my role models, when it comes to work and also when it comes to raising kids. Now that I have Varaa, I constantly call her up to take advice on all baby stuff :-) In addition to all this, she also has a great sense of style which comes through in the below pics. 

These pics were taken on the occasion of Aavishka's first birthday and the destination is Kurumba Resorst in Maldives. That reminds me, Mansi is my role model when it comes to travel as well :D

So tell me, aren't they like the cutest family? I love the way they have coordinated the girl boy dresses - with Aavishka and Mansi having the headband in common, and Krisheev and Bhavesh wearing the exact same clothes. And the braid on Mansi is the perfect way to highlight the headband.
