Life has become a rat race. And it is our own doing. We always want to get more noticed than our colleagues, earn more than our peers, own a bigger car, flaunt the better clothes and other things similar. But the pursuit it lost. Do we really feel fulfilled by the end of it? I find myself in the middle of existential crisis more often than not, always questioning my purpose and the level of…

My mind wanders off to umpteen thoughts, realizations and revelations when I commute in this overcrowded city which is my home (at least for now). One such thought, or rather a question, I persistently ask myself on my way back home is whether I’m content with what I achieved today. Big or small, whatever I do and seek has to count. Taking a line from the bio of Rema Chaudhary, one of the best…

Something’s Cooking

It’s very natural for life to get monotonous at times. With the same routine day in and day out, boredom is bound to set in. Well, it’s a boon when you work in larger organizations. You get to know your colleagues in a more informal manner while you get your hands on some team building exercises. This time around, our HR planned a trip to this miniature MasterChef place called Something’s…

Women – I Love You

“Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women who have her back.” This can’t be truer. I’m all about femininity and despite all the hardships, the patriarchal barriers, the misogynist quirks and the bigoted individuals we face daily, I wouldn’t want to be born as a man. And I think it’s even more important than ever for women to uplift each other and have their backs. Sadly,…

Affordable Fall Weather Lipsticks

Fall weather is all about coffees, hoodies, trench coats, suede boots, beanies, caramelized popcorn in bed, winter movies, loads of body lotion and well, deep, dark colors. Luckily for me, Bangalore gets just cold enough – neither too much that I’m forced into hibernation nor so little that you’re left wondering what’s happening while the entire nation (mostly north) goes brrrrr!! I love dark…

I’m a forest person. I like being alone from time to time, engrossed in nature with all its vastness. My soul aches for solitude, my lungs for fresh air (literally and otherwise). The city life can get to you at times and respites are all one need to break the monotony. Speaking of forests, we hit jackpot during our last trip to Coorg and I had done a post on it. The last few days have passed in…

Nagarhole National Park – Coorg

I’m a control freak – not to madness but to certain extent so that I’m comfortable and know what’s to come. While our time at Coorg, we were so done with the crowd that we chose to stay indoors and enjoy the view from our balcony. It was then that the Mr. decided to take a different route back to Bangalore that involved the road through Nagarhole National Park. And thank God for impromptu plans,…

Sage, Gold & Red

Continuing my recent post about the basic and staple closet styles (here), I’ve styled the same T-shirt with a different set of heels and jewelry. I believe that the combination of red and gold is eternal and evergreen and I personally feel that it suits Indian women more because of the warm undertones of our skin. Red speaks of power, passion and authority while gold symbolizes regality and…
