Ranjit’s SVAASA: A Heritage Boutique Spa Haveli at Amritsar – Part II

Travel November 6, 2017

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).

Sunglasses, Sunglasses and Sunglasses: Can we resist them!

Fashion September 28, 2017

I think sometimes when you want attention you can wear sunglasses and people are like “Who is that?” – Katerina Graham

Yes, I am a big believer of this quote. Like we have different outfits for different days, we can’t do without one fashion accessory that can make you even more chic. We swear by its basic function and it rests on our face making us look even more glam. Yes, I am talking about sunglasses which not only come in different shapes and sizes but even different colours and prints giving us a wide variety to match it for different occasions and outfits. While we have different places where we pick up sunglasses from but for me the most sought after place for buying Smart Designs of Sunglasses for Women is Titan Eyeplus. Titan is obviously one of the most trusted brands and Titan Eyeplus is a portal that offers some of the best brands for buying sunglasses for women, including Titan, Rayban and Fastrack, available in power as well.
