Everthing about the Girl i say!

Not a lot of people i know are into Dubstep. To give you an intro its a genre of electronic dance music originating from South East London. Wikipedia describes the sound as " tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples and occasional vocals" And when the vocals are a sultry female voice its hard to not like it you see.

I heard this mix through a facebook profile of a very super Martian friend of mine. Duper i say !

Everything But The Girl - Missing (D-Skillz Dubstep remix) by D-Skillz

Thinking of you two monkeys..

The Technosl*t and the Martian .. 

:)

Say my Name Say my Name ..

There is nothing that beats female vocalists in any kind of sound and i am most partial to voices that are rugged, raw and untouched by commercial sounds. Came across one such band called "THE CHEAPMUNKS" through my best friend's Vai's blog. I can totally imagine you singing a number like this and kicking the ass with it. You gotta follow this Paki group. 

So Beautiful .. O Humdum from the movie Saathiya also happens to hide back a lot of memories. How i still love it. Still thinking about it after all these years.. 

 

Finding Titbits .. :)

While I run up and down the staircases, I won't ever do it without a piece of jewelry i cannot live without: My neckpiece. And I have found some more lovely ones at ShopRuche

A Designers Delight

My fav ! So pretty is the feather !

Fav No.2. Can throw it on on anything !

Is this really a new Decade?

While everyone feels a renewed energy at the start of a year, I always end up feeling the same. Nothing really has ever changed with the start of the year for me .. has it ever been for any of you ?
To me what really changes a day, a week, a month is an inspiration. A force to do something.. to start a chase.. to begin having faith.. and it bums me in the most unbelievable of places. Like the bathroom.. or during a journey in a train while staring at people .. while walking back home or even while window shopping.
This time around my inspiration has come to me through an article i recently read of Padma Laxmi in Jan issue of Vogue: The Shape Issue. This issue is always a great read as we women are obsessed with what i call the "Fat Talk"

Aishwarya Subramanyam (Managing Editor,Vogue India) begins the article by describing Padma struggling to get into the strapless Blumarine dress to stay up under the weight of her impossible breasts. Swathed in morning light, carelessly draped over the bed, covered in curves, she's male fantasy made flesh. 

After a series of questions, the answers in the end are food for thought. 

Padma on Age: " I've never looked or felt better. What you lose in youth, you gain in sex appeal; what gravity takes away, you gain in wisdom.

On Plastic Surgery ( A term so common as rising prices of Onions!) : "Everyone gets the face they deserve at 50. I'm 40 now and looked better than I ever have because i know what to do with my body and skin. The faces I'm most attracted to are the faces that have lived. 

I don't judge people who decide to go under the knife. But when it comes to me, my pride is involved. I want to look the way I do because of the effort I put into it.My own vanity is at stake. That's why i run up and down the stairs at the crack of dawn. I want to be able to say that I did it. That I got my Body Back ! "

Thats it ! This is my last GulabJamun of the 2011 ! Just one more bite and from tomorrow you'll find me running up the staircase too .. So inspired !

I can and I WILL HAVE A BACK THIS TINY by the end of this year !

Damn you all !!

And Oh ! Happy New Yearssss!! 

*Almost forgot*

:)

Merry Christmas :)

Its Christmas eve and I wish you with all my heart 

May all you dreams come true and wishes be granted 

:)

 

Christmas is not complete without listening to Christmas Carols .. 

For all of you 

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!

Pre Fall 2011

Years are passing by and seasons are flying. The current season is picking up trends from Pre-Fall 2011.

You have to be a numbstruck to not understand how big Bold colors & Color Blocking will be for the coming seasons. Collections are hijacked by hues and an array of them .. Thank god for the colors .. without them Fall is so boring ! 

Some snaps of styles I am loving 

Zac Posen

Erdem

Carolina Herrera

J.Mendel

BCBG Max Azria 

BCBG Max Azria has managed the perfect balance between colors without it feeling summery

Its a great time to mix and match your solids.

Be bold.. stand out with wearing a scarlet or even a pumpkin hue.

Is this really true???

So how does pumping yourself with designer saline bags help ? 

Heard of living in style .. but dying in them too ?

What is next.. Designer coffins ?? 

Sigh..
