For The Ladies Who Love To Shop, Here’s Jaipur!

My mother and I recently did a girls trip to Jaipur, specifically to shop and do a little sightseeing. We’ve both been to Jaipur before, and this time we wanted to explore the bazaars and markets since we didn’t get to do that before. Therefore, if you’re in the mood for some shopping advice, then please carry on reading.

We did also do a lot of eating on this trip, but I’ll save that topic for another blog. I have a little bit of an obsession with the bars and restaurants in Jaipur, so, I have to give them their due spotlight.

Matching with the Monuments in Jaipur!

If you’ve been to my blog before, you know that I love to match, whether it’s travelling with a capsule collection where all my clothes match – OR trying to match the monuments I’m going to visit. I’m a bit extra, and it’s probably a habit I’m going to have to wean myself off of slowly.

Jaipur is a place that I love going back to. No matter who you go with, there is something new to explore every time. One of my favourite spots obviously is the hugely popular City Palace. The doors, the rooms and the pastels hues everywhere are as dreamy as you can imagine.

Believe the hype about El Nido, Palawan!

No Philippines vacation is complete without a trip to El Nido, Palawan. There are 7000+ islands that make up the Philippines, and if you had to choose just one, then it should be El Nido, Palawan.

Much has been said about the different islands and speaking from experience, the hype around many can’t be trusted. However, El Nido, Palawan doesn’t disappoint and lives up to all the blogger and drone hype you see online.

There are a couple of things you must do when in El Nido, Palawan such as check out the beachside restaurants, chill on the different beaches or hire a scooter and explore. However, if like me you are short on time and visiting for the first time, then you HAVE to:

Travel Hack: My Colour Coordinated Travelling Wardrobe

This travel or packing hack is one of my favourites – yes, I have a colour coordinated travelling wardrobe, and it works wonders (for me). It’s no secret that two of my favourite things are to travel and to look stylish doing it. It’s all about the gram these days, and when you have beautiful locations to shoot at, you want to look the part too.

This is a feat that is often harder than it needs to be due to baggage allowances and how much I can physically haul. Another key point is where you’re travelling to, if it’s an easy journey, then travelling heavy isn’t an issue. However, if you’re going island hopping or to a place that is remote and you need to transport your bags all by your lonesome – then keeping things smart is the way to go. Continue reading

Monday Mood Board: India Couture Week Special – White and Gold

While sipping away on champagne and catching some rays yesterday, I began to browse through my Instagram feed and what followed was a few hours of fawning over some breath taking designs at India Couture Week.

I can’t wait to see brides gravitate even more to this colour scheme, classic and screaming contemporary India, these creations are perfect for the Indian woman. Here is my list of top designs from India Couture Week 2016

Clearly I’m not keeping up with the trends, because I thought ear jewellery was the only thing that was ever going to happen to the humble hear – besides, you know… hearing. But colour be stupid, because ear make-up is a thing now. before you dismiss it though, this trend has been popping up all over, from the runway of Louis Vuitton to photoshoots in magazines.
