The Zotiqq jewellery subscription box is priced at Rs.1500/- per month but if you go for 3 months, 6 months or 12 months subscription, you get an amazing deal!
Feb box theme was ‘Aqua’ or ‘Sea Animals’, I think it is dedicated to ‘Pisces’. The box as usual comes in a deep navy blue and beige super sturdy box. You can store all your jewellery in it later too. Each item comes individually packed in plastic wrapping.
What I got:
A black star fish textured statement necklace
A bronze textured star fish ring
Pearl double sided strand earrings
A sea horse pendant long chain
Blue rope bracelet with an orange algae shaped hanging charm
The sea horse pendant long chain is perfect for your t shirts and sweaters. I absolutely loved the earrings, they would work with so many dresses and are super light yet chic at the same time.
The starfish ring makes quite a statement covering the entire finger beautifully, it looks like the ring is hugging your finger 😀
The mono colored black statement necklace will make a mark on a mono colored outfit i.e. all white or all green/blue. And the bracelet would work with your casual wear.
These are quite unique and interesting pieces and loved how they are combined together for the Aqua theme. I see myself wearing the ring and earrings a lot.
Definitely worth checking out the Feb Zotiqq box. I can’t wait for the March box now, looking forward to the new theme.

Zotiqq January Jewellery Subscription Box Unboxing, Review
Hi guys,
I have unboxed and reviewed a lot of subscription boxes till now on the blog from makeup, beauty to food. This is the first time I am reviewing a jewellery subscription box.
Zotiqq is an online fashion & lifestyle portal where they have monthly jewellery subscription boxes and one can also buy the pieces they like individually. It is the brainchild of a fellow beauty blogger and friend Ritu Rajput, most of you must be knowing her, her blog is called ‘The Indian Beauty’
The Zotiqq jewellery subscription box is priced at Rs.1500/- per month but if you have 3 months, 6 months or 12 months subscription, you get an amazing deal!
Coming to the January subscription box, it was the ‘New Year’ theme and hence had sparkly baubles. Let’s see what they are..
It comes in this royal blue and beige packaging, the box in itself is quite sturdy and nice and good to stock your jewellery or makeup. It comes nicely bubble wrapped and no jewellery was damaged. Each item is individually stored inside the box in a plastic cover, which is nice coz many a times the jewellery gets entangled within each other.
I got 5 items in this month’s box.
First two are a diamante statement neckpiece and matching set of statement earrings which can be worn together or individually.
Red tube mesh filled with rhinestones, statement neckpiece
My favourite from the lot, a statement cocktail ring.
And a pretty hand harness which will work with so many different outfits.
I like the theme based box and getting 4-5 pieces together at a price of Rs.1500/- coz individually these jewellery pieces cost a lot more. Definitely worth your money and I do recommend trying this jewellery subscription box.
I am not sure if the January box would be still available, but you can book the Feb subscription box right now 🙂
Have you tried any Jewellery Subscription Boxes before? What did you like the most?
In the luxury watch industry, the Rado name is a firmly established one. Since its 1917 establishment in a Swiss village, this watchmaker has gone on to scale numerous peaks in watch-manufacturing technology and innovation.
Rado has enjoyed a reputation for flair and ground-breaking technology-driven design ever since they made the world’s first scratch-resistant watch in 1962.
If you’re looking to buy a luxury watch that’s both smart and snazzy, you’ll need to look no further; the Rado selection includes a number of models to suit every taste. Choosing one can get a bit confusing with the sheer variety on offer.
Fret not, though! This guide will give you a short but thorough description of the various Rado product lines. Whether you buy your Rado watches online from retailers like Zimson or from other any other retailer this will help you choose the watch that’s just right for you.
The Rado HyperChrome Line
The design of these watches is inspired by the timeless classics made by Rado in the last century. These watches are the high range designer’s signature models for any occasion.
HyperChrome models come in a number of styles to suit every watch lover’s personal taste, and there are over 70 models on offer.
The pride of this model line are the HyperChrome watches in high-tech ceramic; they do away with the stainless steel core of previous ceramic models. Instead, these are crafted from a single piece of sleek-looking injected ceramic. These models promise comfort, durability, and great looks.
It’s not all male-only, though; smaller date models made especially for ladies include classy diamonds on the bezel, dial, and even the side inserts. There truly is a HyperChrome for everyone!
The DiaMaster Family
Rado’s DiaStar 1, launched way back in 1962, was the world’s first scratch-resistant watch. These DiaMaster timepieces are touted as the new face of an old legend, and more than live up to the expectations.
These stylish and durable versions of the old ultra-durable Rado watches have their own identity: large open dials for great visibility. With that said though, the design is still diverse enough to include large ultra-masculine chronographs and tasteful diamond-studded bijous.
Drawing from Rado’s famed material expertise, your DiaMaster is made from elements like a number of shades of ceramic, or leather or carbon-diffused steel. Given the versatility of these materials, you will have no trouble finding one that suits your tastes.
The Rado V10K
Though this refers not to a series but a model, the V10K is so unique that it warrants its own description here.
Rado has named this model based on its hardness rating; the watch has been scored at 10,000 Vickers, which is as hard as the average diamond! For comparison, stainless steel is rated at 200 on this scale.
It isn’t all hardness and masculine posing though; the V10K has also been carefully designed using sapphires and diamonds.
The Esenza Line
Rado’s Esenza line consists of elegantly designed models that are designed with women in mind, though not exclusively for them. Most Esenza watches are made for women, but men have a few choices here as well.
The design cue here seems to be smooth, sleek, and sensual. This line gave rise to the world’s first ceramic touch-controlled watch. In a world where technological breakthroughs are mostly focused on men, this watch made a significant difference by being designed exclusively for women.
There are diamond-encrusted models in this line as well. Whatever your taste, there’s an Esenza for you.
And That’s Not All…
Rado’s amazing product line contains much more than these lines.
The Ceramica line showcases the company’s material expertise; the Original line consists of a number of modern classics; all the products lines showcase this watchmaker’s dedication to beautiful and innovative devices that are much more than just watches.
Whether you want an uber-masculine large chronograph, a pretty diamond-studded ladies’ watch, or the world’s hardest watch, Rado has got it all.
Buy one today and see for yourself what the hype about these watches is all about!
What do you think of Rado watches? Which one do you like?
Today’s post is quite different, it is not the usual OOTD post, but a post dedicated exclusively to Dungarees. Let me tell all about dungarees, the history, how to dress it up, dress it down.
Starting with the history of dungarees, they have been around since the late 1700’s. Dungarees were worn by farmers, slaves and the likes since they were inexpensive and not prone to easy tear but also carried a stigma of low status for the same reason. Women started wearing them during World Wars coz it was the perfect material for those working in factories. They came back in fashion in the 40’s and 50’s starting with children wear and since then, they have been quite famous and IN and OUT of fashion.
Dungarees are back again in fashion and they come in different types and styles, from shorts to skirts to trousers style, denim style, suspenders, ripped denims, etc. They can be paired in a million ways and can be dressed up or dressed down. Dungarees are easy to wear and super comfortable. See a lot of dungarees here on StalkBuyLove.com
Although they have always mostly been associated with casual style, today I am showing you how I dress up my basic black dungarees for a formal, evening look!
Also we shot this small lookbook 🙂
I am wearing this basic, black trouser style dungarees with a simple white crop top and dressed it up with my trusted black blazer and nude heels. I added a pop of colour with this pastel pink Kate Spade bag. My current favourite wood watch from Jord watches completes this look!
Dungarees, Crop top: StalkBuyLove
Bag: Kate Spade
Heels: Steve Madden
Watch: Wood Watches
I love the look and feel of the wood watch, they work with both casual and formal wear and look quite unique. Jord watches have free shipping worldwide, they customize the watch for your size and have 1 year warranty. Do check out the site mentioned above to see more of their pieces.
Of course, we can’t forget the casual way when it comes to dungarees. I am wearing this denim skirt dungarees in a fun, casual way with a white cap, the ‘Rose Chic’ rose pink back pack and holographic silver shoes. The white tee has red sequin heart on the elbows 🙂
This is more of a ‘Back to School’ kind of look and it was so much fun shooting this.
Top, Dungarees, Backpack: StalkBuyLove
Shoes: Zaful
Cap: Got it custom printed from Vistaprint
So these were the two diverse dungaree looks, one casual and one formal. What do you think of dungarees? Which outfit did you like more? Do let me know in the comments below 🙂
Maybelline India Lip Gradation Info, Price, Shades, Swatches
Hi guys,
So finally Maybelline launched ColorBlur lip pencils/lip colours in India with the name ‘Lip Gradation‘. I rushed to the nearest Shoppers Stop today and found these 8 shades.
A little more about Lip Gradation: NEW COLOR SENSATIONAL LIP GRADATION
Go Bold Or Graded And Sexy On Your Lips With The New Color Sensational Lip Gradation. It’s time to experiment with your lip makeup. For the sexy, bold and adventurous woman, Maybelline New York brings international trends with the newest Lip Gradation. Available in 8 bright, matte shades, this double-sided lip product will inspire you to experiment with your looks and bring out your unique style and personality. The color stick at one end will give a gorgeous pop of color while the cushion blender tool at the other end will give a sexy, graded look. For a complete trend-on look, apply color on the centre of your upper lip and use the sponge smudger to extend the color to the outer edges till the contours of your lips or use it as a matte lip color or a lip liner.
Here’s why you will love it:
8 bright, matte shades
Easy to apply
Fun, flirty, versatile way to color your lips
Innovative product with cutting edge technology
For Best Results: Apply Lip Gradation in the center of lips and blend outwards using the cushion blender.
Shades Available: 8
Red 1
Red 2
Pink 1
Pink 2
Fuchsia 1
Mauve 1
Orange 1
Coral 1
MRP: Rs.500/-
They come in a twist up crayon packaging and have to be twisted from the end, from where the blender is. There is a white blender on the other side. The crayon has a black cap and the blender has a transparent small cap.
The texture is super creamy, it feels like butter and the pigmentation is amazing too. And amazingly they have a nice, comfortable, matte finish.
You can either apply it to inner half and/or outer half and create a shaded effect with the blender or mix two shades for an ombre lip.
The shade names are very funny, how and why Red 1, Red 2 :/ Could have had better names.
Here are the swatches:
I got the Mauve shade, coz the reds and pinks looked pretty similar to lip crayons I already have. Loved Coral too, and was loving the look of Orange too. Maybelline has again not launched the super pretty burgundy and wine shades the ColorBlur Lip Pencils have 🙁
These are slightly priced on the expensive side for Maybelline, I think around 400-450 would have been an ideal price but nonetheless I have tried it once and like it, will update with the full review super soon 🙂 For all others who are looking to try this out, I would suggest getting the Coral and Mauve as both the shades are quite different.
Have you checked out the new Maybelline Lip Gradation Pencils yet? Which shade did you like?

Indian OOTD: Vikram Phadnis for Nakkashi Double Layered Anarkali
Hi guys,
This outfit was long, long overdue like it has been months that the shoot was just not happening. At first, the stitching, etc. took a lot of time since the outfit was semi-stitched and the jacket was completely open. Then co-ordinating with the photographers was not happening and I was occupied and then I shifted and what not. Finally we went to Jaipur and I thought it was the perfect location for this outfit, so we shot it there.

Vintage Desi basically makes designer labels much affordable and within the reach, it’s perfect for wedding shopping and the current wedding season. You get everything from clothes to accessories to jewellery here.
I also did a small outfit video..
Let me tell you a little more about this outfit: Top: Double layered top with lycra georgette and sequin embroidery net fabric
Jacket: Chiffon net jacket, cord lace with sequin highlight
Dupatta: Chiffon beige dupatta with elegant border
Bottom: Beige color heavy crepe palazzo with badla zari embroidery work on navy velvet on border
It’s priced at Rs.9450/- which is pretty good for the work, fabric, quality, design plus the brand label. Though it being semi-stitched makes it a little difficult to customize for yourself. Like here you cannot see the palazzos because the outfit is not for my height and the jacket is way too long and even after some customization, it was not possible to cut the work below or open it completely and re-stitch it. If you completely open the entire material, it will turn out to be very expensive and than it being semi-stitched will be of no use to you.
Even after wearing heels, the work at the palazzos cannot be seen unless a person sits or twirls or something like that 😀 Anyway, I absolutely love the beige and gold color and self sequin work. The navy velvet border on the palazzos make a beautiful striking contrast. The jacket is separate and can be worn with many other different outfits. The outfit is totally worth the price!
I hope you liked the outfit and pictures, do let me know in the comments below. Also definitely check out Vintage Desi for the current wedding shopping or anything Indian wear from jewellery to outfits to accessories. You can even sell on the website.
I came across this new website recently, shopalike.in. It brings together items from all the websites at one place. It basically is one common platform to shop everything from all websites and check all the available items online at one place together.
They have all the websites under one roof from Amazon, Jabong to Flipkart, Snapdeal, etc. Website is divided into categories like Men, Women, Children, Shoes, Beauty, Watches, Accessories, etc.
The website is very easy to navigate and the sub-categories within every category are very helpful. For e.g. within dresses, there are sub-categories i.e. dresses divided by occasion, length, style, colors, brands, sizes, patterns, price, shops, material, etc. This makes shortlisting dresses very easy & you can shop quickly as per your requirements.
There is also a separate ‘Sale’ section where all the offers and discounts from various websites are clubbed together. I really loved browsing the website and even tried shopping and it was a breeze.
Their tagline goes ‘EVERYTHING. MILLIONS OF PRODUCTS. EASY. DON’T SEARCH, FIND! AFFORDABLE. GET THE BEST DEALS’ perfectly describes the website. They also have their own app for Windows, Android and iOS phones, so you can also browse and shop anywhere and on the go.
Absolutely recommend checking out Shopalike.in, it will definitely make your online shopping experience a breeze.
