To Tuck It In Or Not: Black Denim Cold Shoulder Shirt Ft Lastinch

Hey Curvies!
It was just yesterday that I finally managed to muster up the courage to upload one of the pictures from my previous photo shoots where I tucked in my shirt and tried to be all cool about it, and voila, the kind of response I got has set me amazed beyond limits! A few months ago I would have not even dared to tuck my shirt in my pants, leave alone getting clicked with these on and sharing it with you guys. But maybe it is your love or my increased self-confidence which challenges me every day to step out of my comfort zone and do something brave, as brave as tucking a shirt in your denim while having a voluptuous figure.

How To Style A Semi Formal Wrap Around Dress Ft Samshek

The summer vacations are almost about to end, but you still have time to make that quick weekend getaway trip. In the past, I have shown you how to go soft with your very own LBD (that’s Little Blue Dress) and an equally sultry nude lip, but this red-hot look which I am going to show you guys today isn’t just about the vampy makeup and all the extra va-va-voom… or it least it doesn’t have to be! For a soft and flowy alternative, we say, it’s gotta be the wrap dress. The now iconic sashed silhouette is still fun and flirty, but has an inherently relaxed vibe, making it easy to wear and, best of all, flattering to nearly any figure. Read more →

So keeping in mind how much you guys have loved this outfit post, let me dig into the outfit details without having to keep you guys guessing.

The New Oriflame Eco Beauty Range Review

Hello lovelies!

Its been so long since I reviewed any skincare product range on the blog but with the weather changing like crazy in Delhi, my skin had been on such bad terms with me that I could not afford to experiment with my skincare regime. And now, that my skin is ready to behave a little better, I have been able to try out a completely new skincare product line launched by Oriflame Sweden. To begin with, I have really oily and seldom acne-prone skin and all the reviews posted below are based on my experience and are not generic. Read more →

The Saga Of Lickable Shakes Ft Cafe AM PM

Residing in Delhi, if you haven’t visited this gem of a place, then you haven’t seen anything at all. Dim lighting, tastefully done interiors, and comfortable, warm seating space is how I visulaise the perfect cafe and AM Pm is just that and much more. On a recent visit to the cafeteria, (being a big group), I was lucky enough to taste a LOT from their menu and now I feel worthy enough to review this place finally.

IMG_20170609_012351

Alright, now this place has some classics, namely their lickable shakes, their westernised fusion food dishes and a few of their cocktails and it is only when you taste them for real that you know the reason behind them being such classics. To start off with we ordered a Kitty Katty shake and a Don’s lust shake.
Kitty Katty as the name suggests is your perfect kit kat shake–thick, slurpy, cold, rich, creamy, laden with whipped cream, chunks of kitkat and oodles of gems. Heavenly indeed!

IMG_20170609_012308
The don’s lust shake is the one which comes with a donut and ferrero rocher coating on the top and as heavenly as the chocolate shake is, the only drawback is their donut which wasnt fresh and was a bit too chewy.

For cocktails we ordered their The Casanova which is specially curarted by Yangdup Lama and is indeed a mixology heaven. The perfect blend of vodka, cranberry, lime and triple sec. Way more potent than it looks like. Though the pink candy floss and the way it is presented wins the hearts.

IMG_20170609_012255
In food we ordered chicken seekh cheese toasts, pepperoni pizza, butter chicken sliders, chicken nachos, fish fingers, dimsums and risotto and none of them disappointed us. All of expempelary quality.

To the main attraction, the deserts! We ended up ordering Molten Nutella Open Lava and Chocolate Bomb and man oh man, were they astounding. You need to try these two if you are even remotely a chocolate desert fan.

A must visit!

Hello there my gorgeous ladies!

The amount of love you have been showing to all my previous plus size fashion styling posts is crazy and I cannot be thankful enough to each one of you!

So here I ma bringing to you today the most classic summer outfits–the florals! Read more →

Breaking The Fat Body Stereotypes With Afamado

Hello people!

As and when I grew up in the slight confines of Indian Society, I was taught to loathe my big body. Yes, I was a big girl since childhood but did that give anyone the right to teach me to hate myself? A few months back, on a facebook post, I was told something about my body positivity that people like to throw out pretty often. I’m told that body positivity is ok, however, “glorifying obesity” is dangerous. I, of course, responded with something short and snarky, because people on the internet that like to harass me do not get to take up the thoughtful spaces in my brain. But I wanted to elaborate on my feelings about what this person said here, in my safe little blog space.

Combining Casual And Formal Clothing With Samshek

Hello Curvies!

Today’s post is a little different than my other (read, previous) fashion posts as this is in response to all of you working ladies who have been asking me for ways to dress up as a corporate woman while keeping intact your inner fashionista. I get it, as we grow older, adulting takes over and if you are a business woman or even remotely associated with the corporate sector, dressing in a formal attire becomes all the more vital. However, going by the trends, it is as if the conventional formal clothing brands do not think us plus sized women worthy of working in the corporate sector. I mean what other explanation can be given for the lack of even remotely decent formal attire for the curvier of us in the market? Read more →
