Fall Decor at My Sister’s House in Virginia

I am very lucky to have two extremely creative sisters in my life. The elder one is the queen of innovative DIYs and decor while the younger one’s talent lies in baking goods of all kinds – from the healthy to the sinful. Somehow, winter and the festive season brings out the best in both of them. This weekend, my little sister made this amazing coffee cake which perfectly complimented my morning mocha. And my elder sister welcomed Fall and Halloween with quirky owl and pumpkin themed decor. My sister has really upped her DIY game over the past one year. What I love about her decor is that…

Notice Something Amiss?

Happy Monday people! Did you notice something wrong with the blog today? It’s loading slower than usual, the newsletter sign up box is missing, the social media buttons on the top of each post are gone and a bunch of features are not working. Even the weekly newsletter did not go out today as usual. Yes, you got it right. I am facing a major technical issue on my blog back-end. I don’t know yet if this is to do with my server and hosting or any other issue, but the blog back-end is not loading in full, which makes it impossible for me to…

We Will See You Next Week!

Happy Monday all you beautiful people! If you have been reading this space, you know by now how much I love to travel.

This week, I am off again for some business travel within the country. It’s a short trip packed with lots of work, but I am sure I will have exciting stories to share with you once I return this weekend! As much as I…

Trip of a Lifetime: Kashmir, Leh, Ladakh: Part 1

Hello wonderful people and happy Sunday! I woke up feeling real good this morning. It could be because it’s Sunday, or because we have amazing (rainy) weather, or simply because today is the anniversary of my maiden trip to Kashmir, Leh, Ladakh in 2013. If I call Paris my teenage crush, then Kashmir is definitely my first love! I undoubtedly have the travel bug, I fall in love with places in an instant. I was 8 years old when I first discovered the beauty of Kashmir while participating in an art project. It was on my travel list for a long time before I finally got the chance to…

Let’s Shake Things Up!

Happy Monday everyone! I cannot believe that we are already in August! The last 7 months have disappeared in the blink of an eye. The rate at which this year is moving, I feel like it won’t be long before we are celebrating Fall, Christmas and then New Years in that order! I started my blog in January this year, and so far the journey has been amazing. I call my blog my ‘happy space’ and happy it is indeed (or so I feel!). My daily sparkle posts are my ‘fun’ thing for the day, and I feel like I can never run out…
