Shake it Off Taylor Swift Way

Hi guys...

How you doin'?? Its friday and weekend is less than 12 hours away (yayyy) The best thing i love about friday is that i dont have to wear formals and can experiment a bit. Btw are you the kind of person who puts on music while getting ready?? If yes then we are peas in a pod. And if you dont i recommend you do try it. It gets you in the groove.

Currently the song i am really feeling is Taylor Swift's Shake it Off.  It has already got more than 10 million views on You Tube do i have to say more. Its all about doing what you want to do and having fun and dont give a damn about what everyone says.You are not put on this earth to please everyone else!! As Taylor says rightly
" But i keep cruising,
   Cant stop,wont stop moving,
   Its like i got this music in my mind,
   Saying its gonna be alright!!
   Coz the players gonna play play play,
   And the Haters gonna hate hate hate
    And i am just gonna shake shake shake
    Shake it Off,Shake it Off"

I even took inspiration from one of her looks in the video and tried it out on a thursday to work. I wore Black slim cut pants from Nuon, a black full sleeve turtle neck from Promod and to complete the look i just put liner on upper line and MAC Ruby Woo on my lips. I would have to say it must have worked. Got lots of compliments :-)

Sadly didnt click any pictures :-( Anyways you can groove to Taylor Swift's Shake It Off link below

Top 7 TV Shows you must watch



With passing age your mind starts thinking all crazy questions, trying to be wiser but all it ends up doing is confusing us even more than we are currently. These couple of days have been bad since my mind is bombarding with “the wise” questions. What are doing with your life? Is this what you want to do rest of your life? Are you loving it? You getting old!! and combine it with work deadlines  its just ERghhhhhh…… Weekend where are you?????? 

When I was studying I remember I used to imagine when i get a job I will be developing new stuff(LOL) and partying my weekends away ( DOUBLE LOL) . When I started working I was like okay I might not be developing new stuff but ; what the hell I will still party my weekends away. Alas !! 1 month down the line all I wanna do during the weekends is SLEEP!! EAT !!and do Laundry. I have become a sloth and I feel its kinda good for me I am gaining weight :-D  Bed, Laptop and pizza nothing can beat that combination..EVER !! I am movie and TV series addict so that suits the case perfectly. Though movies are great but nothing gets you hooked on like a good TV series. Trust me!! So here is my list of favorite must watch series which will help you laze your days out in bed.

7) Lost:- I remember the first time I had seen its promo trailer and I had put a cross on the calendar for the Sunday it was going to air ( I used to do that before when something good was going to come on the cable)And it did not disappoint me. It traced the journey or survivors of Oceanic Air Flight 815 on what seemed to be a deserted island. What follow are series of mysterious events with alien kind animals and the Dharma Initiative. I used to have long conversation with my mom about the button they had to press every 108 minutes to prevent some catastrophe from happening and The Others. Though season 5 and 6 were a little boring all in all it was a great series.


6)Gossip Girl:-“And who am I? That’s one secret I will never tell. You know you love me. XOXO. Gossip Girl” This was my ringtone for literally an year. I wont lie the reason I loved this series so much was a) the clothes and b)Chace Crawford . The series narrated by a secret blogger revolves around lives and drama of high class young adults from Manhattan. I find it to be typical Indian serial with masala and excitement with foreign colors.





5)The Amazing Race- This was probably the first reality serial I ever saw. It was my favorite for a long time. Its on my to do list as well to participate in it. 12 Teams starting from US travelled along the world doing various tasks and at end of each leg the last team was eliminated. Every season I had my favorites whom I wanted to win and watching them race kinds made me feel it was my race as well. My all time favorite will definitely be Rob and Amber. I even got a red backpack like the one they used  to carry :-D I also liked Tyler and James, Kris and Jon, Derek and Drew, etc


4)How I Met Your Mother:- Barney Stinson!! You are AWESOME!!! This was one of the funniest series I have ever seen and I still watch it. It’s a story narrated by Ted to his kids about how he met their mother. So it basically is on day today life of Ted and his friends Robin,Lily,Marshall and Barney. With Ted trying to find his one true love, Robin’s complicated feelings, Barney just being awesome and Lily and Marshall’s married life. It was a superb series with a not so worthy finale according to me. 


3)Supernatural:- This is a series with fighting ghost,spirits,demons and everything evil and god I love it. This was another of me and my moms favorite serials to watch. It a started as a story of two brother Sam (Cutie) and dean (Hottie) on quest to find their father and then the yellow eyed monster who killed their mom and Sam’s girlfriend and went on over to fighting other evil bodies on the way. It was also full of bromance and dying and coming back to life. It just has everything in it. 


2)Friends:- Till a month back this was my best and most favorite series of all times and I am sure most of you will feel the same. From 1994-2004 it defined not only our fashion sense and lingo but entertained us to the core. Like HIMYM it was about lives of 6 young adults in their early twenties Rachael, Ross, Monica, Pheobe, Chandler and Joey  in New York City. It was funny, emotional, crazy, quirky, and romantic. It was the full 7 course meal. If you haven’t watched this then you have certainly missing something in your life. I still watch this every few weeks 3-4 of my fav episodes. It certainly gets a 10/10 from me.



And now the number 1…Drumroll………..Its


1)Game of Thrones:- This Magnum Opus based on books by George Martin is just that. HUGE. It is one of the craziest shows I have ever seen. The first time i had read the title when it was coming on TV i had read it mistakenly as Game of Thornes and i was like what is this. Thornes as in Thorns ?? I have the bad habit of assuming words by just looking at the letters and it has got in me in trouble few times. But coming back to GOT, once you start it you get hooked to it. Its such a badass, And the best thing is you never know whats going to happen. Unless of course you have read the books. Its about how everybody conspires and fights to sit on the Iron Throne. It has all the characters you could find the crowd favorite Tyrion, the most hated guy in world Joffery ( I hate Joffery), the hot Khaleesi with her Dragons ( Yeah they have dragons on this show and Direwolves and Giants) the courageous Arya and the guy with same expression Jon. It’s a show where anyone can die. And I mean anyone. Its something you need to watch atleast once in your lifetime and I can guarantee you wont regret it.


These were my top seven. I would love to know your favorite in comments below. Till then ..
XOXO.. bye.

Finding Fanny Review and OOTD

Hi..

How are you guys doing?? This week has been pretty hectic and weekend has been a much needed break to catch up on some sleep.  I have tried almost everything from reading books to listening to music to counting to 100 backwards. Sleep seems to be alluding me these days like Oscar lady alludes Leonardo :-(

Anyways this week i had the bad luck of watching Finding Fanny. To describe the experience in one word - NUMB! I was zonked out watching it like what the hell is happening here.I mean there was no proper storyline. It should have been named  "Finding Storyline" rather than "Finding Fanny" .
Main characters :-
Rosie- Played by Dimple Kapadi is supposedly mini godmother of the villiage Pokolim in Goa where all of these people stay. If her dressing sense was bad donr get me started on her acting. It was over the top.
Savio- Arjun Kapoor Deepika's Ex lover had rugged good looks but his character was boring. He made me feel sleepy. Come to think of it i could use this to fall asleep at night but only problem is might never wake up.
Pedro- Pankaj Kapoor a painter who has just moved to the village. I didnt understand his point of being there. His funny dialogues totally missed the point and were more on lines of vulgar.
Ferdie- Naseeruddin Shah the village postmaster and Fanny's lover. Confused and goofball.
Angie- Deepika Padukone Rosie's widowed daughter in law. She was the only saving grace of this film. Her acting was superb and she looked just wow. Especially in her wedding dresses. 
Usually i have good tolerance level for movies or serials for that matter but this one...no comments. I would suggest

Rating-1/5 (just for Deepika)

I wore a black jumpsuit i got from koovs.com with a white vest under it. For accesories i just wore a silver cuff.

Let me know how you found the movie. Was it just me or you too who felt this way;)

xoxo bye

OOTD:- Blue Blue.

Crocodile, Crocodile which color do you want?
The elixir to live or i will be there to haunt.
Blue is the color i choose,
So come running little child; tibaly tabalu toose.

Blue for the deep ocean just like a heart of a woman,
So many secrets to keep, its a safe haven.
Blue for the mighty sky with little bundles of white,
Like a cozy quilt to cover you and a teddy to sleep tight.

Like blue in Popsicle and my old jean,
Like the writing on this paper in ink.
Blue like the rain splatters becoming streaks in my hair,
It matches the color of your eye's lair.

Beckoning, unwinding, tempting desire to twine.

Blue like  me,Blue like you,
Blue like the feeling when i miss you...

Style Steal - Sonam Kapoor

     "Fashion is what you make of it".

Not long ago maxi dresses were synonymous with resort or beach vacation. But today its a whole different ball game. You can see them everywhere from supermarkets to malls from runways to your local streets. Its certainly hopped and jumped to our day to wadrobe and i would say successfully. They are comfy and cute add to that elegant. When i was young the only people i saw wearing maxi dresses were the greek and egyptian princesses. And now wearing one of my own makes me feel kinda royal ;-)

For this outfit i have taken inspiration from none other than our own style diva Sonam Kapoor. Currently for her upcoming movie "Khoobsorat" promotions I have seen her sport the maxi/midi dresses with cool jackets. I feel this combination can take a simple look up a notch.

In my style steal i am wearing this torquoise blue maxi dress from AND and i have combined this with a white shirt from fbb with birds on it.For shoes i wearing my bright rainy sandals i got in mumbai. I have kept my accessories on a lower side with dangling leaf earing my mom got me, a silver belt to give the dress some dimension and my tommy hilfigher watch.

First Post- OOTD :- Office Formals

Hi guys..
I been thinking of starting a blog for a long time but never got around to it. Its a Sunday actualy Monday early morning and the nights when i dont get sleep turn out to be long ones. Countless thoughts and questions running in my mind and here i am..

Well this not much of a post. Just a glimpse of what i wore on a thursday. Well i work at in a IT firm and it is a boring sea of blacks and whites and blues and greys with little reds and greens of kurtas. It has strict rules when it comes to dress code. But its kind of fun to play with the line. Anyways i never fully understood how wearing certain piece of clothing could make you work more efficiently or less..

I am wearing a mustard yellow trouser and a black top with small white cats on it. For shoes i am wearing simple black sandals. For my hair they were sad when i woke up.... flat out so.. i put on two pigtails.. sassies up the outfit i feel. What say??

(P.S. Sorry for the photo quality i know it sucks :-( it will be better next time )
