Fashion weeks are always loaded with fun and excitement with the latest style, trends, make-up as well as accessories. The complete look is complete only after experimenting more and creating styles that work. Everybody goes crazy with deciding outfits, accessories, shoes, jewellery and make-up with their looks and looking good always comes on priority for everyone.
What can make a dull outfit spark? Yes, its accessories- from what you are wearing on the neck to what you are carrying in your hand. What I like is that these accessories come in different styles and colours which give us so much variety to pair them with different outfits because some day we are at our glamorous best while other days we are in a sporty avatar to some days when we are just feeling too casual.
One of my favourite accessory is the one which I use to store my essentials. Be it a lipstick, wet tissues or my phone, it goes in my purse so that I can just take it out when I require it.
We witnessed a spectacular pink show which smelt of girly things and lots of candies & lollipops! With a colour palette of corals, bright pinks, blacks, off-whites & greys all together checkered and hand-woven Merino yarns stitched together & the Portuguese lace & trims, tartans, stripes, colour pop up, the 3D laser cut flowers, ribbon embroideries, beadwork, crochet detailing, the Péro Fall Winter Spring Collection at Amazon India Fashion Week Autumn Winter’18 was a delight to watch!
Spending a bright, cheery, laidback afternoon is what’s on your mind lately? Then you should head to Pickwicks at The Claridges, New Delhi which is known for its sumptuous breakfasts, elaborate lunches & quiet & peaceful dinners. It’s a place where you can sit & relax in the cozy set up & have a nice delightful meal with fresh salads, pasta, Shepherd’s Pie, Grilled Lamb, Sea Bass or Flummery Pudding giving you a feel of Old England.
Now blending the food with contemporary old style, Pickwicks brings in traditional flavours of Old Delhi like Marwarhi Kadhi, Moong Dal Palak & Fardausi Qorma with fresh & tasteful clever ingredients & spices from Old Delhi world reminding you of the labyrinth charm of Old Delhi hospitality, culture & taste. The all-day diner’s new menu pays a tribute to the flavours inspired by Old Delhi with it’s newly incorporated section ‘Old Delhi Cuisine’.
Why should fashion be restricted only to clothes! Even your house needs the fashion dose!
Team ChicLifeByte attended the recently concluded Delhi Times Fashion Week which happened at Roseate House where top designers like Niki Mahajan, Suneet Varma, Christine Storm and many more showcased. While we saw models who made stunning impressions in the designer garments, Orient Electric made an interesting move by associating with Delhi Times Fashion Week as “Smart Fans Partner”. Along with that at the event there was a display of two of Orient Aero Series fans namely Orient Aerostorm & Orient Aerolite. The fans come with 18 pole motor to deliver an astounding air delivery with heavenly silence. Aerostorm in particular gives an impressive 300 cmm (cubic meters per minute) air delivery.
Planning a nice hearty lunch or dinner? The real challenge is deciding the place which has something for everyone’s liking? Someone in your family wants Indian while someone else wants Mexican? Sounds familiar? Don’t worry, Team ChicLifeByte has the perfect solution for you.
Flluid in Mosaic Hotels, Noida is where my dining woes came to an end. We had already experience the hospitality of Mosaic Hotels Mussoorie and had no doubt that Mosaic Noida would also stand true to its name. Flluid is the place where popular Western, Indian and Oriental dishes are blended together to create fusion experiments which taste heavenly.
ChicLifeByte told you about the wonderful stay and hospitality of Ranjit’s SVAASA: A Heritage Boutique Spa Haveli at Amritsar. The ancestral property was built 200 years ago by Ratan Chand Mehra, a prominent person of his time. He had contributed to the society by opening up blind schools, gaushala, a family mandir as well as a hospital for TB, all of which are running till date. Ratan Chand Mehra was a recipient of Order of the British Empire (OBE) title and this house was actually a guesthouse for the Britishers. Retaining the original heritage, the place was refurbished. However, special things were retained which include 18 inch thick walls, there is mud inside the ceiling which helps in insulation, bricks are nanakshati (special bricks packed with mud, no cement is used in walls).
Nida Mahmood, the master creator of unique prints who is popularly known as the Queen of Kitsch presented her collection in collaboration with Deivee, an active lifestyle brand from India founded by Milind Soman and Darshan M at the Amazon India Fashion Week Spring Summer 2018 in association with Nexa. Fashion, graphics, art, creativeness, film, installation, interiors are Nida’s main forte and she presented an atheleisure and sporty collection inspired by the four zones of India, East- ikat (from Orissa), West- indigo printing & dyeing (from Gujarat/Rajasthan), North- rich Banarasi brocades (Mughal patterns of delicate flowers and leaves on delicate creepers), South- Uppada and Narayanpet sarees (inspired by stripes & colour blocking).
It’s festive time and everyone wants to dress their best and look ravishing. While the right outfits and right make-up is important, its equally important to have naturally beautiful skin. One important festival is Karvachauth where married women fast the whole day for the long age of their husband. I love the traditions but its important that the women pamper themselves as well. However, during this time the beauty salons are full of clients as they want to look and dress the best on this auspicious festival. To ease this problem, VLCC Personal Care’s Gold Facial Kit comes handy which gives instant luminous and radiant skin and can be done at the convenience of your home saving a lot of time. The kit which is beautifully packed and completely professional comes with Comfrey Cleanser cum Toner, Gold Scrub, Gold Gel, Gold Cream, Gold Peel off Mask and a post facial Oil Free Moisturising Gel with SPF 15 to be used as a top up after the facial is done.
