Styling the new Lakme #HairIsFashion Hairstyle and Win a Hair Makeover
Hey guys,
Remember my new Lakme Absolute Salon #HairIsFashion Show Stopping Hair makeover HERE. I am in love with the subtle highlights and the cut Shefali gave me.
The highlights get a bit lighter and more visible after a few washes..so they are a little more prominent now.
How I would love to style my new hair?
With western/casual clothes, I love the way its blow dried here. I would prefer doing the same..straight locks with in between subtle hints of highlights on the crown and from behind the neck. The auburn looks perfect with a brick red lipstick here.
With Indian wear like a saree/dress, I would go with softer curls on the ends turning them outwards something like this..
Or add some embellishment with bangs similar to this (I am thinking of experimenting with short bangs)
Or side swept hair with waves..
Curls pinned to one side something similar to this..
Can’t wait to try different hairstyles..would definitely update you guys with pics of more trials..
For now, here is a contest for you guys..one of you gets a chance to win this Show Stopping Hair Makeover at Lakme Salon.
Participant must be a resident of India and must have a Lakme Salon in their city..the winner gets a Rs.1500/- voucher for their very own Show Stopping Hair Makeover.
All you need to do is answer a question why ‘Hair is Fashion’ according to you,in the comments below?
Human beings are not robots. Surprisingly, Apparel companies dont often get it. Actually, they don’t get it. My hubby is 6’3″. Lean build. Weighs 80 kgs. Has a broad body, long arms and longer legs. :p
So, all the shopping he does for formal wear (He was an investment banker so he cannot afford to mess up on his clothes fittings) invariably ends up with buying shirt and trouser pieces from Babubhai Jagjivandas at Dadar and getting them stitched. Because no brand has a shirt size of 42 with an option of 1 inch extra sleeve length. It was a nightmare for me to find a shirt to gift him even during our courtship coz of the 42,44 confusion. All brands had some minor difference in sleeve length in 42 and 44. And while both were slightly loose when it came to overall fit especially 44, but the sleeve length could not be compromised at all :/
How often has it been that you have walked into an apparel store just to return empty handed because what you liked didn’t exactly fit you or wasn’t available in your size? How many times have you wished that you could alter just a bit of the design elements so that the garment truly reflects your own style?
Each one of us is unique – with different body types. Someone may have a paunch, someone may be shorter or someone may have a longer than usual arm length. For a long time, brands have treated consumers as a set of fixed fits and sizes. As a result, people who don’t fall within these specified sets of sizes and fits have to live with the compromise of not finding their perfect fitting garment. Even people with regular body type have to live with the compromises of things not fitting to their taste.
Van Heusen MYFIT changes all that. It’s an innovative solution that helps consumer break all these compromises and gives the power in their hands to find a garment that truly fits them – fits to their unique body or to their unique taste.”
He went to the store with a not-so-optimistic mood. I had to literally kick him out of the house. He came back with a happy grin. His size was “TALL FIT – 42” for shirts.
I then went on to the Trendin website, picked a smart blue line formal shirt and 2 pairs of trousers. Shirts in MYFIT have 7 step by step customization options starting with body type..and the main being sleeve length +1 inch and -1 inch. We went for +1 inch, that being the major problem usually coz of his height.
Coming to the trousers, it again has 5 customized steps starting again with the body type. Then comes the flat front or pleated option, followed by waist size. It has lots of options in waist size including the in-between odd sizes from 27 to 37 and then again the even ones from 38 to 50. And the last is trouser length, if you know the exact size which if you have visited the store or get it stitched previously you would, you get the exact including half an inch. And even if you don’t know the exact length, fret not, you can alter it at your nearest Van Heusen store anytime.
The order came about a week later. The package was from Madura Fashion & Lifestyle. Turns out these are the very same Madhura guys whose premium menswear was in great demand a generation back.
The store manager had also told him to come visit again after the order is delivered and he would be more than happy to do a few minor alterations.
Anyways, the shirt as well as the trouser fitted him perfectly. For a change :p
For starters, MYFIT works like this:
a) It doesn’t offer tailor made shirts and trousers.
b) They have just introduced some simple variations in standard sizes to make it easy for a lot of differently sized people to get good quality branded formal wear.
c) You go to a store. Try out various sizes. Zero in on the MYFIT size. Go online and order the same. Actually, MYFIT is so simple that if you are familiar with your measurements, you don’t even need to go to a physical store.
PS: Have a look at the fabric before buying (Actually, the store guys have an entire catalogue with them containing sample pieces of the cloth fabric that would give you a better idea).
Remember the new facial epilator from Braun I had shared details of, HERE, I have been using it from quite some time now and here is the review.
What the Company claims: New Braun Face, the world’s first 2 in 1 facial device, delivering pore-deep cleansing and high precision facial epilation for pure, radiant beauty, whether you want to go make up-free or create the perfect canvas to try the latest trends. This revolutionary new beauty device from the world’s No.1 epilator brand is an investment in better-looking skin. Expect your complexion to look visibly smooth, fresh and beautifully flawless at the flick of a switch.
I love the fact that it is so small,handy and convenient..fits in a palm. And there is only a cap head and one cleansing attachment to be carried along with this and a tiny brush to clean it. Super travel friendly.
The epilator head is round and tapered and has rotating tiny tweezers on the side too which makes it ideal to use it anywhere on your face and angles. I mostly use it for my upper lips though. Even though most of us get our upper lips done at the salon, there are always this in-between days where the upper lips grow fast and its quite annoying to visit the salon especially for upper lip wasting our precious time too. Also when I was out of town for my honeymoon for 15 days, I desperately needed this for my upper lip as I had forgotten my tweezers too and none of the 6 hotels we went to, had tweezers! Imagine my plight. I would have surely carried this with me, had it launched before my wedding! It would have been a savior. Travelling,long trips, no time for salon visits, etc is when Braun Face is God sent for us 😀
Instructions
I was shit scared using it for the first time, reading some previous experiences of people, but it was not even as painful as the salon threading! It took some time as the corners and edges are difficult to get in, but it was quick and took me about 10 minutes for the entire upper lip. There was no growth for about 10 days after which I used it again.
Even right now when I am on bed rest and cannot walk, this is very handy. I have already used it once after being discharged from the hospital.
The second cleansing head is equally amazing, and I have used it every alternate day before. It cleanses every speck of dirt and grime from the face. I have used it post makeup removal too. The bristles are soft and its not at all harsh on the facial skin.
You need to change the head after every 3 months of use. It comes with 2 years warranty and only needs a battery cell to operate. The hair can be easily cleaned using the brush it comes along.
You just need to press the click button below to remove/change the heads.
I had a similar mini tweezer from China before..reviewed HERE. It was not so good quality wise but still very handy. This is amazing in comparison and the cleansing head is a total bonus. Absolutely recommend it!
Rating: 4.5/5
P.S: Do a patch test before if you are intolerant to pain and cannot stand tweezing at all. If you regularly get your upper lip threading done at a salon, this would hardly hurt in comparison.
Oh, em, gee: there’s a new fun thing in town, and everybody’s SUTTAOING it (well, not quite literally). Rrithik Hoshan, Lunny Seone – I have even heard that Middharth Salhotra cannot live without it. Its called EON E-Vape, (Geekos refer to it as electronic vaping device) and it is supposed to be to cigarettes what kindle is to books. :p
If you are below 18, please close this page!!!!!!!
It is not powered by matchsticks or lighters. Gone are those days. Gen-X wants an “E” prefixed to everything. It does not fart out smoke, tar or ash and all that polluting stuff (Remember that gory ad played before movies @ PVR: ITNA TAAR AAPKO BIMAAR, BAHUT BIMAAR BANA DETA HAI. Well, apparently, all that will soon become unreal if this stuff catches up). And btw, there is no plug attached to it, its battery powered. As the slogan goes, it is literally – ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, with 2 flavours – Rich Flavour & Menthol.
Three of my close friends are already hooked on to it – For the first, the smoking lounge is way too far from his desk and he prefers Vaping in the comfort of the loo. It works just fine as it does not piss off any of the millions of smoke alarms installed in his office. For the other guy, it helps him distract himself from the gruelling study schedule in his bedroom. A cigarette was too risky as his mom had a real powerful smell sense. J For the last chic, well, she loves to EVD her frustration out after a gruelling day on an AC bus along the Powai-Goregaon route in Mumbai (Yes, she does it on a BEST bus and its apparently not illegal).
What makes it likely to catch on? Well, for starters, as I explained above, it is super convenient – Doesn’t piss off smoke alarms, fellow travellers, law-keepers, moral police. Its core appeal (Convenience, Read Anytime & Anywhere) stands on two legs – Smoke-free & Battery powered. Whether it will catch up or not, well, no prizes for guessing where my bets are. :p
Apart from this one thing, it’s just regular SUTTA. Doesn’t promise you heaven or wonderland or Katrina Kaif.
Some of my outfit posts from my honeymoon were pending, so I thought of posting them and share some memories too. The Venetian is a beautiful place!! Its almost similar to the Las Vegas one, in fact all the hotels in Las Vegas are present in Macao too, the entire set up of the city has been made in a similar way.
If you love casinos, you will love Macao, if not, head directly to The Venetian! Its the best place in Macao and a must visit. Its a huge huge hotel with a mall inside and the entire mini Venice setup in between..so basically you see shops all around behind while taking a Gondola ride, right at the centre of the mall! And they have this fake blue skies setup above, so its always daytime there, even at 2 am at night 😀
We stayed one day at The Venetian, it is super expensive but it is so so worth every penny.
I wore this pretty floral skater dress which hugs beautifully till the waist and flares at the bottom..its one of my favourite dresses and what better place than to wear it at this beautiful location.
I paired it with my pearl statement necklace and a Daniel Wellington watch and a spiked and a pearl bracelet in one hand. I was carrying only 2-3 pairs of shoes, so wore these black ankle straped wedges. Unfortunately, I had worn these on the day of the accident and they just flew off when I had the huge fall. I will miss them 🙁
One funny incident related with the pic below..when I was getting my pics clicked, 1-2 random ladies from a group where also getting their pics clicked and suddenly came and started getting pics clicked with me 😀 Then another of her friend did the same..it was kinda weird and funny..may be they loved my dress or me..no idea :/
Dress: Romwe
Shoes: Shown HERE and HERE
Necklace: Shown HERE, HERE and HERE
Watch: Daniel Wellington
This time, the box was Valentine Special and curated by Miss Malini also called Miss Malini’s Box of Love. It was a black colored box this time with a pink satin pouch inside..loved that pouch.
Also, there were two additional cards inside this time.A Sephora makeover card for oneself and a friend,sadly no Sephora in Mumbai and its a waste for me :/
Second was a Rs.500/- off on H2O+ stores card, will have to try that out, 2 stores in Mumbai thankfully.
What I got in the box:
Calvin Klein Reveal: Rs.4500/- for 50ml It smells amazing, strong and musky. Its my kinda scent.
LYN (Live Your Now) Nail Lacquer: Rs.350/- for 12ml Its a beautiful creamy pastel blue called No Morning Blues, I tried it out immediately. Dries quickly and love the finish. I am glad its a full sized 12ml quantity this time <3
SkinYoga Post Workout Neem Purifier: Rs.1550/- for 200gms Its a barley and neem post workout body scrub, waiting to try this out. I love SkinYoga products, happy with this one.
Vana Vidhi Himalayan Wild Rose Bath Salt: Rs.990/- for 15gms Bath Salts are a pleasure to use, especially when its pure,natural rose. It smells of soft,pure rose with no added scent/fragrance.
L’Occitane Immortelle Precious Youth Serum: Rs.4490/- for 30ml Not really a fan since its an anti aging range, I don’t like the fact that beauty boxes contain anti aging products unless specifically requested for.
Overall I loved this month’s box. A full sized product plus the other deluxe sized samples which are good enough to eat and smell fabulous. Use SkinYoga Neem Purifier post workout on Valentine’s Day, bath with the Vana Vidhi Himalayan Wild Rose Bath Salt, apply the LYN nail lacquer and spritz some CK Reveal 😀 #not #justkidding
Online Shopping is IN now. I recently got married and rented out a new place. Shooped online for TV, Refrigerator, Washing Machine, apparel, household goods, fans, other small electronics & stuff.
I got the best products at the best prices.
But off late, I realised that those were not the best prices. Apparently, there are websites that act as a shopping website aggregator for shoppers, i.e. they lead shoppers to online marketplaces like Amazon, Snapdeal, Flipkart and manage to get commissions from these websites as customer referral fees. One such website is www.bonusbay.in
Now why should we go through these websites if I want to buy something from Amazon?
Well, here is the “Best price surprise” part. These websites share their customer referral fees with people like you and me, who shop on the Amazons of the world via their websites.
Let me explain in four easy steps
a) Create a login account at www.bonusbay.in (Or use your facebook account for the same)
b) Go to amazon.in through the above newly created login account. You can also check out the commission you are bound to receive (So, apart from the prices on the websites, you should also calculate the commissions and figure out the net cost. Finally, some use of my accounting/commerce degree). I also checked prices of the same product from direct websites and the prices remain the same. Please comment below if you have found it otherwise for any of the products.
c) Shop like you normally do.
d) There is no step 4. You will get your bonuses in the form of bonusbay points/bonus within a couple of months. Once the bonuses hit 1,000, you can also transfer the same to your bank account. So stop reading this post and go HERE to avail INR 100 welcome bonus. 🙂
This whole thing reminds me of credit card cash back and reward points stuff. Except that credit cards are much more stingy – 1 reward point for 100 shopping bucks, which translates into just 0.30 paise in my bank. 🙁

An OOTD after a long time, of course its not new since I can’t even stand yet but hopefully soon. I had done a shoot for this dress in early Jan and was waiting for an occasion to post it, when I saw the pics I thought today is the perfect day to post this red dress.
I am not a person who would usually wear red, so Valentine’s Day would have been a good occasion/reason to wear red.
I love how this dress fits snuggly, ends over the knees giving it a pencil skirt look and has pockets at the front. It is super comfy and figure flattering.
This dress is from Jifsy.in (also available in black), they have such amazing dresses especially bodycon ones. Loved the variety,simple and chic. Good for formal wear too. A special coupon code ‘newlove-makeup’ to get 22% off on Jifsy.
I paired it with pearl necklace, gold cuff and midi rings. Black gladiator heels with gold studs to complete the look.
Dress: Jifsy
Heels: Amiclubwear
Necklace: W for Woman
Cuff, Midi rings: Romwe
I hope you liked the look..do let me know in the comments below. What are you wearing today?
