Eating to detox


We normally think of our daily routines and stick to them, we take 3 meals in a day and what we usually forget is exactly what we need to remember. We forget talking to our bodies and catering to its needs. For example you have been eating the same food for a while and you have stuck to this food routine for years but understand as we grow up our bodies requirements will change almost every 5 years, depending on our daily activities.

I have been staying our of my house for over 6 years now and I have been regularly eating out. I eat the same curries and maida rotis. But apart from a few stomach troubles I have never had any issue. Its only since 2 days that I am realizing that my digestive system needs a break too. Not only because I have been eating out but it is tired of all the amount of food I have had.

My food routine for today was -

11 am - soya milk
2 pm - Idli and fresh lime soda
9 pm - normal dinner (chapati and curry)

This is what I will follow for the nest 2-3 days.



Now you need not do this like me but understand we all need to detox so keep it easier on food and more on juices and milk. Try eating only one full meal, trust me your body feels awesome. It will feel totally fresh and clean. Again when you start eating at a normal pace it will be more ready to digest it.

Taking care of your body is always in style

Happy Styling!

RITU KUMAR BRIDAL COLLECTION


Another of my favorites is Ritu Kumar, I love the way she uses the drapes and she makes the clothes look very royal at the same time wearable. She has made bridal wear more princess like and heavenly.

My favorite picks from her collection


I love the bold use of colors in this lehanga and the best part being the two dupattas. Both of them add to the sophisticated look of this bridal piece. Also there seems hardly any room for jewelry which is a good thing.

Rating - 8/10


This looks like a must buy for any woman who loves to flaunt herself. Bold colors and dense silver and golden thread work has added to the ensemble. For me it sweeps me off my feet.

Rating - 9.5/10


Woow don't you feel so when you look at the brightness of this lehanga. The orange makes it look so bridal and ethnic with such a huge flair. Reminds me of all ghaghra songs I have heard

Product Review- Maybelline BB cream



I came across this cream when I wanted to conceal the spots on my face and Maybelline we all know is a trusted brand to try. The New BB cream had attracted my attention since quite some time. Here is what I have to say about the cream.


I had planned to go for a night party and I used it as my base make up but somehow I liked it. Though I certainly feel that that cream can do a better job at cleaning the skin marks and blemishes. I would have liked it more if it had a shimmer feel to it.

Thumbs Up

It provides a good base for further make up on your skin.
It is available in various shades to choose your skin type

Thumbs Down

Not as perfect as it claims to be.
Does not look like an Unusual product

Lasik Surgery - Myths and Truths


We all have this innate desire to beautify ourselves and most of us want to get away with our very studious glasses for the rest of our lives. I understand it makes you look very chic sometimes but you hate to wear them for parties and that means the pain of carrying your contact lenses around with you everywhere you go.

I have been stuck with my spectacles since the past 17 years and earlier this year i decided to bid goodbye to them.

For going through this surgery there are only a few things that you need to keep in mind


  • Speak to an experienced doctor
  • Take the surgery that is more expensive
  • You wont be allowed to use eye make -up for at least 30 days
  • It might pain in the initial 2-3 days
  • You have to wear shades and protect your eyes from all sorts of strong rays of light and wind
  • Hair wash has to be done very cautiously
  • You should avoid face make up also for a few days

It is usually very successful and you feel the change the very next minute your surgery is completed. 
Do not worry there is no incision made on your skin so you are sure of no scars or marks.
If you feel it is high time you stopped looking geek come ahead with it


Girlies chuck all your worries and go for it, Show the world how beautiful your eyes are.

Happy Styling!
