Perfect Wedding Day Makeup
Lots of black eyeliner to accent the almond-shaped eyes? Check. Perfect shading and blending to compliment the shape and colour of the eyes? Yup. Contoured cheekbones for a perfect lift and glow? Uh huh. Modern and absolutely not matchy? Yessir.
Down to the neutral lips, Kareena Kapoor’s make-up is perfect for what I’d like my wedding day makeup to look like. It’s glam and...
Another Creative Guestbook Idea
When I saw this idea for a guest book, I was nursing a Christmas party red wine induced headache. Needless to say, I heart red wine. Needless to say, having my guests sign a bottle of wine for me at my wedding would be so me.
But this wedding is ours. So, where does that leave me? Still looking for an idea that’s very us.

The Lengha Search
I’m going to start the week by jumping in - here’s a post about the best part of my trip - my wedding lengha!
To make the most of my time in India, I was planning on buying my wedding lengha the first day we hit the shops. One week into shopping, I still hadn’t found anything that was the one. My weary family and frustrated shop-owners had me convinced that what I wanted just didn’t...

Aaaaand in case my family and friends need me to drop some not-so-subtle hints (and even if they don’t),...
What's "In" Right Now
As you may or may not know, what’s offered in boutiques across India doesn’t necessarily reflect what’s happening in the world of Indian high-fashion. In 2010, a lot of designers play with prints and textures, with a lot of deep jewel toned hues in suits, saris and lenghas.
Surprisingly, boutiques outside designer circles seem caught up with what’s current, but are still...
Back From India!
I’ve been back an entire week and I’m still catching up on sleep, work, family and gossip! And now that I’m back, I’ll have TONS to share with you about the experience of wedding shopping in India. Here are some highlights to start with!
Over the past few weeks, I became very me-centric. I think I’ve been fairly aware of the fact that this wedding is about BOTH Daniel and I, as well as our...
