Happy Monday everyone! It’s the most wonderful time of the year. A time to be your most happy, shiny, bright and positive self.

Sparkle #136: Disco Gypsy at Paris Fashion Week

Fashion Week is upon us again and this time the runway is setup in Paris! My favorite show at Paris has almost always been Manish Arora’s ready to wear Spring Summer preview. Kitschy, psychedelic and colorful – his trademark style is very close to my heart. He never disappoints, and this time was no different! I have always been a fan of his work, check his previous collections here. With a collection labelled ‘Disco Gypsy’, he stayed true to his quirky style but added a whole lot of drama via prominent Indian elements. The exuberantly colored clothes feature a vast array of embellishments and fun details…

Sparkle #122: Dr. Seuss Quotes

Happy Monday bright people! I am back after another week of traveling, and cannot wait to share vignettes and stories from my trip with you. Travel last week was focused on learning and development, as I took time off from work to attend a soft skills training. The training was geared towards introspection and cultivating awareness of different personality types – our own as well as others. My top takeaways from the sessions – be mindful, listen more, respect time and do more of what makes you happy! But let’s save more on this for another post and get back to sparkly Mondays on the blog! I am feeling super charged…

Sparkle #114: Healthy Living Illustrations

Happy Monday lovelies! This week on the blog we are celebrating illustration art, which means I will be sharing some of my favorite illustrations from different categories with you through the week. I have always been obsessed with good art and design, and illustrations are a personal favorite. Illustration art accompanies some form of text and is used to provide a visual aid to whatever you are reading. Collecting illustrated artwork from older books and magazines is an interesting hobby, and has been gaining popularity in recent times. I personally feel that illustrations are charming, whimsical and artistic at the same time. Older illustrations remind me of…
