Suit sets look pretty good whether in office or just casual everyday wear and some even for family get-togethers and light functions.
Also the best part about suit sets is that you can mix and match them and wear the bottom and dupatta with your other kurtis too.
I think suit sets are amazing for office as they look formal but are yet comfortable and pretty. I found some pretty good suits for women online.
Here are my picks..
1. Off White Cotton Kalidar Suit Set
I absolutely love this! White always looks pretty, more so with florals. This red floral print on the white dress with the white net palazzos and red geomtric print dupatta makes for a perfect combination.
2. Peach Cotton Kalidar Suit
I love the color peach, this one is perfect for summers. Kalis look elegant and feminine and the matching churidar and crushed dupatta go well with it. The kurti has gold work towards the bottom, and this is something which you can wear for family functions too.
3. Turquoise Straight Pant Suit
Again a beautiful pastel turquoise color with bursts of other pastels in it, perfect for summer. The straight fit style gives it a Pakistani suit look. Makes for great office wear.
4. Orange/Pink Cotton Kurta Set
Orange cotton voile printed kalidar kurta with embroidery on the placket, paired with solid churidar and printed pink dupatta. I love orange and pink combination. The geometric print in pink on the orange kurta overall with the mirror work on the border of the dupatta and the neckline of kurti merges really well.
5. Blue Cotton Leheriya Churidar
Leheriya printed straight fit blue kurta in cotton voile paired with white churidar and printed dupatta bordered in pink. Leheriya is evergreen, something that will never go out of trend. The crushed white and blue dupatta with the pink border looks very pretty.
These were some of my picks, as you saw some had basic color churidhars and dupattas too which you can combine with your other kurtis. I feel 2-3 of these suit sets are must have in our wardrobes.
About Saree.com: Saree.com is a one stop shop for women’s ethnic and lifestyle needs. They aim to offer you most genuine and adorable garments for all the occasions.
When I was searching for ethnic wear for my wedding trousseau a few months back, very few sites online interested me. I liked Triveni Sarees and 1-2 other, but not many options were availble. Recently I stumbled upon Saree.com and I am hooked on to the site!
They stock everything from anarkalis to designer sarees to lehengas and even evening gowns! Evening gowns was something I could not find anywhere and I was searching them desperately for my cocktail. I wish I would have known Saree.com before 🙁
This costs just Rs.2395/-, unbelievable right! Also you can get it stitched the way you want, a shorter choli if you want to show your lehenga or like a longer salwar which is quite IN these days.
Ok, I love yellow in ethnic wear and especially yellow and pink combination. I think it looks fabulous, and this saree is a perfect blend of colors and the embroidery work on it looks really pretty.
Aren’t these pieces amazing, and there are many many more. You will be spoilt for choice 😀 Absolutely loved the collection on saree.com and definitely shopping here the next time I need to buy ethnic wear. Highly recommended.
Also, I have a special coupon code for you guys which will let you avail INR 500 off on your cart value above 500. Its ‘SPCL500’ valid over next 30 days.

For people who have a hectic work schedule and have a long working hours, shopping can be a difficult thing to do, however, with the emergency of a plethora of online stores, shopping has become easy and quick. The online stores not only help you save time but also help you save a lot of money. However, the secret to saving money is knowing how to use the online coupon codes.
Just like the printed coupons that you find on the coupon magazines or the local classifieds, the online coupons can be used to get a discount or rebate on the things that you purchase from the online stores. In the recent times, the online shopping coupons have become a huge hit; they have completely changed the way people shop online these days. If you have no prior experience using the coupon codes, read on to know how you can save money with these coupons:
First and foremost you need to find the coupons online. If you have already made your decision about buying the product from a particular store, you can simple Google the terms (Store name) online coupons. For instance, if you want to a buy a dress or shoes from jabong, you can search for Jabong coupons and you will find a full list of coupons that is available at that particular point of time.
One of the important things to know is that the online coupons are of two types. One is the discount coupons, which allows you to buy a particular item at 30% or 50% discount and the other type is the complimentary coupon, which allows you to get free items on purchase of a particular product or on the purchase of goods for a certain amount. To avoid any confusion while you redeem the coupon code make sure that you choose the right product.
Although a large number of online shoppers today use the discount coupons while shopping, major of them tend to ignore the validity date the coupon. You must know that each and every coupon comes with a certain validity date and if it is not used within the validity period you would not get any discount. Therefore while looking for a discount coupon it is important to check its validity period before using the code while shopping. Typically, most of the online stores, regularly update their coupons and remove the ones that have expired. If you have subscribed for the newsletter service of a certain online store, you can be rest assured of getting the latest coupons through e-mail.
To save money on your online shopping it is advisable that you prepare a list of the things that you wish to buy and then decide which products are your urgent needs and which are the ones that you can afford to buy on a later date. Online shoppers suggest that by doing this, they can save up to 50% more money.
Thus there are many advantages of using coupon codes while shopping online so if you are keen to avail these benefits change your regular shopping habit and get the online coupons and keep saving every time you purchase online.
Editor’s note: Do you shop a lot online? Use coupon codes? I always do and have saved a lot of bucks 😀
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. 🙁

I am on a shopping spree right now..I tried out Vouchercloud and using the coupons, shopped from Fashionandyou.com and Voxpopclothing.com
They had a 20% off on all orders on Fashionandyou.com coupon and that was over and above the discounts the website already had.
I got 20% off using the coupon code mentioned on Vouchercloud over and above the pretty good 50% discount on Femella on fashionandyou. I bought this pretty aqua blue Femella dress and a short sleeves printed top and studded black ballet flats from Steppings which again already had 50% off. Happy me 😀
Vouchercloud also had a Voxpopclothing Buy 3 Get 2 offer. I have never shopped from Voxpop, so this was the first. I checked out the site and they had some pretty cool and quirky stuff.
I ordered 2 fun tees and one quirky PJ’s and got 2 tees free..again a super deal!
I am quite happy with my purchases and Vouchercloud..I have seen tons of coupon websites and they pretty much have the same deals leading to the websites which already promote their sales and discounts enough on social media and through emails and messages,so there is practically nothing new. Its been a long,long time that I found a site which actually has ‘coupon codes’ and which work successfully.
I would highly recommend you to check Vouchercloud especially before your next purchases, you are sure to find some useful coupons and save some bucks. From health & beauty, food & drink,travel & accommodation, electronics..it pretty much covers everything.
Have you checked out vouchercloud India yet? Do let me know your thoughts.
Most of you must have heard about Quikr.com obviously with the amount of ads coming in, now on TV too. Did you see the two new latest ones ? I like that red sofa :p
But how many of you have actually shopped on Quikr ? I had not untill yet, so I am glad I got this opportunity by Blogadda.
Read on to know more about Quikr and what all I got:
About Quikr: Quikr is India’s no.1 online classifieds platform, a place where people can connect with each other to buy or sell goods and services. Launched in 2008 with the vision for buyers and sellers to “meet online, transact offline”, today we have over 4.2 million listings and have generated over 150 million replies.
Headquartered in Mumbai, Quikr operates from 940 cities across India and is accessed by more than 30 million unique users and 26 million brand new customers per month. We now have over 13 categories and 170 sub-categories, with the most popular being mobile phones and electronics, real estate, cars and bikes.
At Quikr, we have created an online community which is simple and secure. We are constantly innovating so that users can buy and sell in the easiest and most convenient way possible. We recognized that getting a fair price could be a hurdle for our customers, and we developed a Maximum Selling Price (MSP) calculator to help users estimate a reasonable price range. We also pioneered the Missed Call service in India, enabling first time or non internet users in India to give us a missed call so that we can help them post an ad. This way we aim to make people ‘Quikr’ users, perhaps even before they are internet users.
Our efforts are being recognized. In BAV® 2013 (a Brand Asset Valuator by Rediffusion-Y&R), Quikr was the only classifieds platform to be featured in the list of top ten ‘Best E-commerce Brands in India Amongst Youth’.
Quikr has also raised big money – US$ 60 million last month, from investors, which means better technology, more categories and super cool user experience in the days to come. :p
When you enter the site, at first you get a select city option and are taken to the sub domain of the city directly. You have a city wise classification and they have a sub domain for every city. For eg, for Mumbai it is mumbai.quikr.com. It is better to stick to your city while searching things, especially if they are heavy, coz transportation would be a pain
Then ‘Post Free Ad‘ option and to Buy or Find anything according to the categories mentioned. You can also create a free alert according to your requirement, category, city and locality and submit your email id and phone number, and you will get free alerts whenever someone posts about something that matches your requirement! Alerts are cool, saves you a lot of time in browsing and finding stuff yourself.
I registered on the site, which also gave me an option of ‘Saved Ads‘, so that I did not have to go through everything again to find the thing I had liked and shortlisted.
I got this OrbitHandy Chopper and Shake N Go Juicer which are both new and from the same seller. I called them and they said they would deliver the product home, show a demo and then collect the money which was amazing 😀
A man came in 2-3 days with the products and showed the demo, it was all fine. And collected the cash of Rs.2200/- i.e. 1100 each.
I think the Handy Chopper is perfect for onions, garlic and ginger, and many other things of course. Perfect to use when you don’t want puree/mince but fine chopping. The Shake N Go is more of a blender or a smoothie maker. It blends milkshakes and smoothies amazingly well and comes with 2 blenders.
Then I found this brand new Boss All Time Mixer Grinder for Rs.1200/- but the only glitch was I had to go to collect it to Malad. But nonetheless, I am happy coz it was a good deal. Boss makes good kitchen appliances and I loved this mixer with three jar attachments.
And the final thing I purchased is a Eureka Forbes non electric Aqua Sure water filter whose ad the seller took down :/ This screenshot was I could see.
Cached page
Thankfully I got the image from the cached link. It was mentioned for Rs.2000 but when I asked the seller on phone, he said for Rs.1500/– and it’s not much used :p :Happy Dance: (fits under 5000 budget) He agreed to come to the nearby station where I live. Thank God for that :p It has two new extra filters too.
I am getting married and shifting to a new place and these things would be indeed very helpful for me. In fact, now that I have shopped for Quikr and have had a good experience, I am also buying 2-3 things more and saving on some bucks 😀
I compared the price of each of the above items online and this was a good deal in all ways, hence I went for this. There were 1-2 items I had shortlisted before and the seller agreed to send but later when I called to follow up, he denied saying he got a better deal and someone is paying more for it. I know it’s perfectly fine, but the sellers should stick to their words. Secondly the product price he mentioned, I was getting the same brand new product on Flipkart for a lesser amount and so I had quoted 100 bucks less than Flipkart and told him the same, to which he agreed.
Some buyer who must have not compared the price on Google paid a much higher price for the product. I did not like the part where some sellers only try and fool the buyers and sell them the product at a higher price than what is normally in the market.
I suggest Quikr add a comparison tab online under each product page where people can compare the same model or item’s price online and not get fooled. That would be very helpful for many.
Also, sometimes you see a helpline number on the side where they mention they would pick up the product and deliver to your place. I had called that helpline number and they said they charge Rs.30/- per km. which I found very high, and that this price should be mentioned on the site itself.
Other than that, I have had a good experience shopping on Quikr and getting 2-3 more things soon for my new home.
It’s a very good medium bringing the buyers and sellers together. Some sellers even negotiate the prices and some clearly mention no bargaining. So as a buyer, check the product, go for one with pictures, call and try to negotiate. Also find a suitable mid point where you can meet and collect the product if it is not huge.
As a seller, do not price the product higher than the market price. If it’s a used product, always count the depreciation factor. And always include good quality pictures. Helps a lot in selling the product faster.
Also, Quikr has an option of Premium Ads where they charge you some minimal fee per day and place your ad right on the top in the particular category which helps a lot. If as a seller you need to sell something urgently, I would say try the Premium service.

After Diwali and New Year and all the Indian wear, I am back with an OOTD again. I have so many Little Black Dresses (LBD’s) but a Little White Dress is also crucial in your wardrobe.
I went for a white bodycon Little White Dress (LWD) this time. It fits like a glove and of course I had to wear my shapewear underneath it (Sigh! Girl’s problems) But it looks quite elegant and chic with the gold chain detailing on the shoulders.
I skipped a statement necklace since it had the chain detailing and went for statement gold earrings instead. And finished it with gold and stone bracelet and rings from Silvette. I am absolutely loving them, these days <3
Finally my black suede block heels with gold ankle strap.
I also layered it with a polka dots denim blazer. This blazer is so multi-use,would work with many of my outfits from denims to dresses. Its warm, thick, fits perfectly, snugs correctly and looks amazing. What else would one want from a blazer ?! 😀 I love it!
