THE BACKSTREET CAFE

Image
Hey I am back with something new and different and it is a treat for the foodies out there. A new eatery has been launched in the city of Mumbai and it is not like any other place I have been. This cafe captures the essence of Mumbai from it's roots. The Backstreet Cafe welcomes you from the loud and busy life in Mumbai to a small replica of the city itself but there is just one difference, it is quite, calm and without any worries. The place will lift your mood with the most trending songs and the funniest quirky posters on the walls. The eye catching part of the cafe is the Bus. The Red Bus is just not a show piece but you can actually enter the bus and eat inside. That would the perfect place to host a get together. Doesn't it just scream Mumbai?  The staff is extremely attentive and oh so helpful. If you are confused by the wide spread of food then do go for the server's suggestion, you won't be disappointed.  The alakart menu of this cafe inc...

CHRISTMAS PARTY

Image
The Christmas lights, the old pine tree with a star on the top, the hustle and bustle on the road for the end of the spur shopping and the party vibes throughout the city of Mumbai gravitates me into this ever so bright, beautiful festival of Christmas and welcoming a new year into our lives.  Spending hours and hours of my day watching Zoella on YouTube makes me want to decorate my house with fairy lights, surround myself with Advent Calenders and give it a go at making the gingerbread house. Despite being a Hindu, I never leave a chance at celebrating any festival irrespective of the religion or rituals. That is why my house is as lit up and festive as it would be for Diwali. Coming from a Catholic Convent School, I was always exposed and surrounded by the Christmas vibes and the most interesting part of Christmas is receiving gifts from Santa Claus and getting dressed up for the party. Oh yes, till the age of 10 I did believe in Santa Claus just like any other...

LIVE THE ORGANIC AWAY WITH QTROVE

Image
The concept of producing and consuming all vegan, organic products has become a necessity and more than that a style statement in our society. And why shouldn't it be? Not only we are becoming aware of all things natural, non contaminated but also engaging ourselves and treating our body with the right things.  Nowadays there are en number of choices and brands coming up with all things organic but there are only few who do it the right way as well as offer you tremendous amount of choices. Qtrove is offers a treat for people of every age group and every gender. Ranging from bath and body products to food items and even fashion, stationary, everything is available on Qtrove .   I got the opportunity to select few products from the thousands of different things they offer on their website. I was in quite a bit of dilemma but ended up selecting 5 products, all from different sections in order to experience the whole shebang.    The first thing I or...

FAVORITE NAIL POLISHES 2016 + TIPS

Image
                                           I have never ever had a manicure done in 21 years of my life. Now that doesn't mean that I don't care about my hands or my nails but personally I prefer to sit on my bed, watch videos and pamper myself in the most comfortable and cozy environment. That is relaxing for me. So whenever I get the time, I remove all of my weapons, the nail cutter and nail filer and get on with the work. Not a complete pro at it but whatever I do it works for me. TIP: What I have learnt by observing people in the salon is that it is better to soak your hands in a bowl of warm water, that helps to soften up your cuticles which makes it easier to cut and shape it. Also don't forget to moisture your hands, you definitely do not want your skin to start peeling off right. Now after all the gross work is done,comes the best part and that is NAIL POLISH. Just ...

FRIENDLY TECHNOLOGY FT LGV20

Image
Hello everyone. I have decided to give you all a small break from fashion and styling ideas and have come up with something absolutely different. Something which not many people know about me is that I am not only a phone addict but I need to be updated and hoard new phones which are available in the market from time to time.  My first ever smart phone was the LG Slide phone endorsed by the one and only Priyanka Chopra. As I watched that particular advertisement in the year 2008, I knew I had to have it.  LG as a brand has always been up front in the case of Kitchen appliances, Air conditioners, Television and now Mobile phones. It has been one of the under rated brands but now it is making it's presence known with it's new LG-V20 launch. It has all that you would always wish for in a smart phone and some more. The most exciting bit is that it is the first phone to host the Android 7.0 which gives to access to features like split screen mode, Google's improved ...

WINTER EDIT VOL.1

Image
Hello Hellooooo!!! Do you know which time of the year is this? It's Winter time!!! Though no one gave me the memo or a reminder that winter is here but it's not like I need because I am always waiting for this time to arrive. In Mumbai, winter surely doesn't exist but that doesn't mean that I can't make the most of it. There is a slight nip in the air and especially in the evening and at night it's just serene and calm.  I use that as an excuse to remove all my hoodies and jackets from the far back of my closet and start layering it up like crazy. Not just that but this is the best time to buy the most comfiest and the most erratic clothes ever. I luckily have few different types of winter jacket which I was able to purchase because of a recent trip I made to Nainital. After that trip I just didn't get any chance to wear them but I had to come up with something because I truly missed my winter wear.  So I thought why not share a few winter wear outfit idea...
