Pastel - A few ways and how to wear pastel





      There was a time when pastel was limited to Ester holiday. However, in the Indian fashion scene, sporting pastel is not unusual. I love how pastel colors have been dominating for a couple of seasons, and it looks like they're going to continue to dominate the upcoming fall season as well.
       I lean towards neutral these days, and pastel colors work great in that way. It's easy to dress up without being flashy, yet you can always add accessories to complement a more statement look.

How to wear pastel
  1. You can never go wrong wearing pastel with neutral. It is the most common and easiest way to wear pastel.
  2. People often worry about pairing pastel with a statement or darker palette, that it might take away the soothing and soft character. But in reality, it accentuates the pastel.
  3. You can wear pastel with pastel. Mixing up pastel is surely cool.
  4. Let pastel take the lead; there's no need to add anything, as pastel has its own inherent beauty.
      I love wearing pastel-colored sarees in the summer a lot. Here I am wearing a peach-colored saree with an off-white crop top and a pearl necklace.

      In another picture, I am wearing a mint green dress with statement accessories a snakeskin bag and bold necklace.

Please do let me know how you wear your pastels! Are you drawn to a particular shade?

My favorite pieces of Assamese Traditional jewelry

My grandmother's thuria, age-old and heirloom jewelry, of course, not part-able         A piece of jewelry echoes a region's rich heritage, aesthetics and sensibilities and Assamese jewelry does not differ from that. A piece of jewelry not just enhances the wearer's beauty but identity as well.       A land of flamboyant rivers engulfed in exotic flora and fauna, birds, musical instruments Assamese jewelry is highly inspired by that. Sharing a few assamese pieces of jewelry from my personal collection.       An Assamese bride's dress up is incomplete without Assamese jewelry. Traditionally Assamese jewelry is purely handmade. The main frame is made out with 24-carat gold and lac is used as a filling material. Stones are studded on the top.  The creatively and meticulously studded stone craftsmanship resembles with pomegranate seeds. The color and texture of the stone are opulent and lurid jus...

Bartaco, West Hartford , Connecticut review

It was a usual February day, the chill felt like tucking in the furry comforter and stay cozy at home. But, the matter of the fact was that it was my birthday  and my family wanted me to take out for dinner. I was reluctant and wanted to stay at home. My little one was after me and I couldn't say no. I had no clue where we were heading for dinner and then here we were at the Bartaco. Vivacious Bartaco instantly took away my winter sluggishness. With a gracious greeting, modern contemporary laid back sitting and a bit of hustle and bustle made me alive in the winter freezing February. The high ceiling, ivory walls, earthy light shades stroked a tropical vibe and the food spoke a lot about Mexico and Latin America. As a sober, I chose housemade pomegranate lemonade and hubby got grapefruit ginger juice. I never had pomegranate lemonade before, I must say it was one of the coolest and refreshing lemonade I have ever had. The tint of lemonade not just took the look but ...
