The Vogue Diaries

Hey pals!

Wish you all belated DIWALI'. I am sorry for the late wishes and late post. But yeah, I will post up the content every often from now on.

Well, When festivals like Diwali is around the corner, People gorge on delicacies and Perform the routine rituals. Apart from them, the dressing is very decisive.

It's not just for Diwali but also for all the festivals, get together's, dates and parties.

So today, I have come up with an interesting concept of dressing up in different ways using one single dress for various locations.

Yep!

You heard me right & Let me show it now!

SWIPE DOWN & LET'S HAVE SOME FUN TOGETHER.

My Sister and I purchased these two beautiful floor-length dresses with a kurta over it from Neeru's and Westside.

The Yellow one from Neeru's and the Red one from Westside.

                                                              

                                                               

The red one was mother's selection though. I must say, guys, my mother is the first person who taught me how to style my clothes and she was the one who has driven this passion for clothes and fashion in me. She teaches me numerous things and inspires me every day.

My mother came up with this idea of Styling the dress in plenty of ways and so here we are!

Look 1

Dress up as it is

Since the dress was heavy, we kept our jewelry to minimal.

Look 2

Wear the floor length dress without kurta and with a dupatta.

                                           

Look 3

The crop top

                                                     

Look 4

Palazzo pants instead of the gown

                                                 

Look 5

A jacket over the kurta


                                                           


                                                           

Hey pals!




                                                           



                                                         

Hey pals!

I hope you're doing great!

A few days ago, I was reading a couple of headlines from the insights. It was all about IKEA's launch. I was happy that our nation is becoming a destination for a whole lot of foreign brands and companies.

                                                                 

A little after the store launch of huge IKEA in Hyderabad, I wondered there would be no other launch in any time soon.

And then a couple of days ago, I read about the launch of Danube Home's first store in Hyderabad all the way from Dubai.
I must say that I am a fanatic about trade shows, Exhibitions, and showroom launches.

I visited the store carrying the fan-girl in me.

The Danube Home launched its first store in Hyderabad, India today. It is a huge store with a very innovative product line with the combining taste of Indian tradition and Arabic subtleness. The quality of the product is the very high end and very reasonable to purchase.

                                                         

And the interesting part about the place is, you can customize your house too. The interior designer at the store gives you an opportunity to explore your imaginations and help you customize your own house. Later, you can have a glance at your customization through VR 3D and can make necessary changes.

Isn't it interesting?

Of course, It is!
When all the requirements of a house are under one roof, you can comfortably shop everything at one place.
While wandering the store and admiring things, I happened to meet and have a conversation with Mr.Adel Sajan who is the  Managing Director of Danube. He has briefly narrated about the history of the brand.

The history
The name of the brand was inspired by the lake Danube located in Vienna. It is spelled as 'Danube'

The store has got its products from 21 different countries which is another innovative part of the store.
Turkey, Arab, Brazil are some of the countries among the 21.

                                                                 

Every Danube product has got its own unique story. They are not only conservatively Indian but also radically Arabian.

The crockery, Designer Paintings, The Dining, The color  Kitchen wares, Bedroom furniture, Garden wares, The bath equipment, Massage chairs and so on are extremely and ultimately affordable.

And do not ever think the store is similar to IKEA. It's absolutely not!
I think each one of you must make some time and pay a visit at least once and that one visit of yours will multiply twice, thrice and so on.
Trust me it is one of the most happening places in Hyderabad today.


                                                             




Thank you for having a glance.

Hey pals!

When winters are on their way most of us are conscious about our dressing.

I always find myself comfortable in the cotton dresses and kurtas. I assume that most of the girls snug into the cotton wear no matter what the season is.

So girls! This post is for you.

The tropical wear especially is an option for everyone for any kind of season.

Keeping up COZY in mind I kept searching some online portals and I found this amazing website named LIBAS which truly defines the word COZY

And yeah! click on the images to get directed to the website.



                                                 

Hey pals!

I wish you all a happy Navaratri! I hope all of you have celebrated the festival in your own way with lots of happiness's, get-together's and ecstasy.
Well, that is what the festivals are meant for!
                         



Customs and traditions, The colorful disguises and attires, the traditional food is the fundamental reason for my love towards festive days.
Especially, the traditional dressing is something which fascinates me a lot.

This Navaratri, I tried picking up a saree from my grandma's wardrobe.
She has an amazing collection of sarees and this is one among them.

This classic banarasi saree is a legacy and I made sure to match it with a beautiful poly silk stonework blouse.

The older clothes can be mix and matched and can be made to look the brand new.

So girls! What are you waiting for?
Grab an old saree from your grandma and add a new style to it.
And Trust me, you will look very unique in it.
                   

Apparently, I found that every two of five people have black in their favorite color list.
There is a myth which says black is the color which represents negativity. But trust me that's not it. 
The person who loves black is a mysterious person who represents strength, seriousness, and authority.
In fact, by the end of the article the myth of yours will be resolved.  

                                       


So my black loving pals,

This one's for you 


I am posting six looks for different occasions. 


Have a glance and have fun.

Look-1

Hey my modern-orthodox pals,

Hope you are doing great!

So am back with a Captivating Concept today.
Coordinating your clothes for an Indian festival isn't really a space science

                                           

When festive days are around the corner one always want to look best in whatever they wear.

And trust me looking colorful is not only a dream for toddlers but also for every zestful and dynamic young girls too.
Toddler-hood is an age where multi hues are preferred.
It is a fantasy world, where every kid dreams of himself/ herself living in the world of colors.

The world of fantasy and the toddler in me never dies when I pick my clothes.

Well,

Preferring the traditional looks whenever holy days turn up is always my concern.
Being Indian and devoted to culture, ethnic look admires me a lot. I always fancy about mixing up ethnic looks with contemporary fashion which is why picked up this beautiful varicolored saree from rust orange.

This saree blends with my way of dressing
                                                             
Not only for festive days but you can also wear the fashionable saree for any occasion you wish only if you are fan of modern tradition.

Having a clean and Smooth skin is a real blessing. We can have it either by hereditary or good maintenance. Everyone has their own way of maintaining the skin.

                                                     

Let me narrate what do I do to have a good skin

Number 1

Having no makeup at all.

Be it at home or while I go out, I do not use compact at all. Applying makeup often can cause aging problems, hair fall and skin allergies too.

                                                
Things I use to look good on camera are:

1. A sunscreen lotion which protects my skin from sun rays

2. A lipstick

3. A kajal pencil.

They are helpful for me to have a good skin

Number 2


Drink lots of water.

Having Aqua and keeping your skin hydrated is very much required. It gives good minerals to your skin and makes your skin shine. Not just summer, you must have at least four bottles of water daily.

I will have four bottles of water every day. How much quantity of water do you drink?
                                                         

Number 3

Aloe vera gel

After you are done with a hectic day, apply aloe vera gel to the skin. It helps to remove tan, sunburns, dust particles and also provide antioxidants.


I use aloe vera gel every day after work which keeps my skin clean and neat

                                                      

So, if you are willing to use this gel, Use  Patanjali aloe vera gel tube or get the gel out the aloe vera plant if you have it at your home.

This is how I maintain my skin and I hope this article of mine has helped you to some extent.

Thank you for having a glance!

PS: I have written this article on request of my pals :)
