Every time a Londoner complains about the heatwave I want to laugh. I want to tell them you have no idea what hot is, what summer is and what a heat wave really is till you have lived in India. But having gone through this 32 degree hot weather in the last week I can…
The Rules of Monochrome
Recently I have become quite a fan of the monochrome look. Of course, most of my monochrome looks are either in white or black. (But can you blame me? Who in their right mind can own a orange trouser and top?) But I have gravitated towards white-on-white on black-on-black looks, even if not in monochrome….
My Literary Travel Bucket List – The Best of Books and Travel
I have had the idea of writing about my literary travel bucket list for quite sometime. What I mean by this is simply my travel bucket list, somewhere I want to travel based on a book or series of books I have read. I am going to mention the book as well as the place…
A Shopaholic’s Story: From Shopaholic to a Non-Shopper
My husband recently saved up some money and generously asked me what I wanted. I really thought about it and said nothing actually. And I wasn’t even lying. (Actually I am lying, I didn’t really want anything but I still said ‘a bag’ – I am obsessed with bags. I have been looking at a…

I have to admit I do take a little more effort getting dressed when I know I am having outfit pictures taken. So I decided to go to the other extreme this time – wear sweats and take outfit pictures. But the point I wanted to make is just because they are sweatpants it doesn’t…
Easter Weekend: Restaurants, Coffee Shops, Shows and Events
This was the first Easter weekend I was spending in London. We are usually off on holiday but since I am off to St Lucia this coming week we thought it made sense to stay put in London for now. And I must say I love London during Easter! Its empty and not as crowded…
Fancy Thai Food In The Harrod’s Food Hall: Mango Tree
I love Indian food of course but I have to say comfort food for me is South East Asian food – Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai and Thai food definitely tops the list. So when I had a chance to test out the Thai food at Mango Tree in the Harrods food hall I didn’t exactly…
10 Of The Most Instagram Worthy Restaurants To Check Out
There are some restaurants or cafes that I walk in and wonder if they decorated the place keeping Instagram in mind? There are some restaurants in London with some in-your-face Instagram potential – do I need to say Sketch and of course, the afternoon tea at the Berkeley? But the ones in my list below are…
