Get To Know Me! 31 Questions Answered!

1. Is your hair naturally curly or straight? My hair is confused! 😀 It likes to be bouncy curly one day and frizzy wavy the other! Sometimes I help it make a decision by taking out my hair straightener and straighten it completely!

I have highlights and I go to a salon to get it done.

My favourite perfumes no doubt have to be Si by Armani and BLV Eau De Parfum II

Favourite Lipsticks: Reds and Pinks!

Hello everybody!

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Today I thought I would talk about my favourite pink and red lipsticks. If you have been reading my blog posts for some time now, you will know that I am a big lover of lipsticks. Lipsticks are the one thing I cannot live without. Pinks and reds are my personal favourites and I have several of them in various shades. So I was just going through them yesterday, picking out the recent buys and the older ones when I realized that there are 6 shades in my collection which are my absolute favourites.

So I decided I would share it with you guys! So if you’d like to know more about my favourites, then keep on reading!

No. 1: Chanel Rouge Allure in #14 Passion-

This was a present from my mum on my 18^th birthday and it tops my list! This is the only Chanel lipstick I have and as you can already imagine, it is very special to me. It a classic scarlet red which reminds me of the lipstick Vivien Leigh wore in her portrayal as Scarlett O’Hara in Gone With The Wind.

I also love its packaging; a golden body enclosed in a black tube. I love the way it opens, by pushing at the golden base. As you can say from the pictures, I wore it a lot! I literally wore it for an entire year! I was so in love with it.

No. 2: Lakme Absolute Lip Tint Matte in Pink Fantasy-

This shade of lipstick is actually quite common and I have a few more of these from other brands. This shade is very easily available and from various brands. It is a pretty pink shade and it has medium to full coverage. It is very lightweight and matte. You know mamma loves matte lipsticks! 😉 For me one swipe is good enough to get that perfect shade and I love wearing it.

No. 3: The Body Shop #125-

This is a very recent purchase but since it made it to the top 3, I guess you can pretty much assume how lovely it is! If you read my previous post on The Body Shop Hand Creams, you know how much I love The Body Shop and when I saw this shade in the store, I knew I had to get it and I did. It is a brick red shade and it provides medium to buildable colour. Since I tend to stick with neutral eye shadow shades, I amplify the look with dark lip colours. The colour really suits me and if you love brick red shades, do give it a try!

No. 4: Lakme Absolute Lip Tint Matte in Magenta Magic-

3 out of 6 lipsticks here are from Lakme and that is because I have been very much in love with the brand for the past couple of months. Lakme is a very old cosmetics company in India and my mum always uses their products. I didn’t use their products much before but after I tried on their CC cream and found it amazing, I explored some of their products and I loved it. Their products are very good and so pigmented. Magenta Magic is a whole lot darker than Pink Fantasy and has a good squeeze of dark pinks and purples in it. Pink Fantasy is a lot lighter than it.

No. 5: Lakme Absolute Matte in Classic Rose-

I saw my mum using this colour and I was like, “Ooo! That is a pretty shade, what is it?” and she replied, “Oh you know Classic Rose from Lakme. You got it for me, don’t you remember?” and I could swear I heard a cricket cry as I stared blankly at her. I had completely forgotten about and the shade. And when I saw it I was like, “Yep, I need to go and get one for myself!” It is a very dark brownish red shade which is so lightweight and absolutely matte! Angels go AAAHHHHH!!! Well… I went AAAHHHH!!! It is perfect for the evenings or for festivities. I love it so darn much!

No. 6: Maybelline Bold Matte by Colorsensational in MAT 1-

It is a very bright neon pink shade and it is such a fun colour! Sometimes I just pop this in my lips and it immediately brightens up the face. I don’t even require additional makeup items to accompany this shade. Just a light swipe of this shade on my lips and I am good to go! It is matte and can be a little drying which is why I always hydrate and moisturize my lips with a lip balm before applying this.

So there you go! I hope you liked my post on my top red and pink lipsticks! Do let me know if you have any other suggestions on lipstick shades or if you have used any of the above or similar ones!

Have a wonderful day and I’ll see you guys soon!

Bye!

The Body Shop Hand Creams Review

Whenever I am walking past a Body Shop outlet, all my senses are on high alert and my steps are exceptionally slow. I don’t know whether it’s the amazing packaging or the divine fragrances that pull me towards them but I definitely check out The Body Shop products like a person who left her studies to the last minute before exam and now has to hungrily devour all the information in one go! Just kidding! 😛
On a serious note though, The Body Shop is one of my favourite brands and I always seem to pick up one thing or the other be it just a small lipstick or a lip balm! So a few days ago, I went shopping with my mum and I insisted on stopping at the Body Shop outlet and I bought quite a few things from there.
I had never bought a hand cream before because I didn’t think I required one as I just simply used the regular body butters or lotions to moisturize my hand. But I wanted to buy for my mum and the packaging was so adorable, I picked out a couple of them.
So I thought I would review those for you and if you’d like to know my opinions on them then please keep on reading! 

PACKAGING:
The Body Shop hand creams come in small 30ml tubes with a black screw on cap at the bottom. The packaging was super cute and the vibrant colours on them made them look so pretty! I go weak in the knees when I see products with cute packaging and I immediately know that I will be purchasing them. The caps are very tightly screwed on and I had a really hard time unscrewing them, I ever hurt my hand and it was all red. I thought I might have to return it but I guess the cap sensed it and immediately unscrewed on my last try! These little tubes are very handy and travel friendly. You can just slip them inside your handbags and carry them anywhere you like. They hardly take up any room and are also very light weight.

TEXTURE:
The cream is very light and water based which allows it to get quickly absorbed into the skin. In just a few seconds the cream vanishes into the skin and it doesn’t make it feel or look greasy or sticky. I absolutely hate having my hands greasy or sticky which is also why I steered clear from moisturizing my hands for a long time a few years ago. Since it is a water based cream, a little amount goes a long way. Only a dime size amount of the product is required to fully moisturize my hand.

RESULTS:
I have been applying this hand cream for a week or so now and I just love how it makes my hands feel cool and hydrated every time I apply it. My favourite part is the fragrance that lingers on my hands. I keep on smelling my hands because of the delicious fragrances. I apply them before going to bed and I can see that my hands look a lot hydrated and soft in the mornings. These are not VERY moisturizing so if you have very dry hands; these might not work for you as it is very light and not very condensed. It is perfect for the summer time as it’s not heavy and the fragrance adds a splash of freshness on the hands.
FRAGRANCES:
Frosted Cranberry: This is by far my favourite as I love cranberries! The fragrance is very sweet and tangy at the same time. To me it also smells a lot like cotton candy. I somehow can also smell sugar in it. Even though it may be faint but I do smell sugar! However as the name clearly states “Cranberry”, it has high notes of sweet and tangy cranberry. As the smell starts to diffuse, it starts to become much sweeter and the tanginess fades away. On a side note, the cream has a baby pinkish white colour in it!
Moringa: Did you know that Moringa flowers are often used to make tea? The flower brews in hot water for a few minutes to give a very distinctive flavour brew. It is considered to have very powerful medicinal properties and high nutritional benefits. I have personally never seen or smelled this pretty flower which is why I cannot say if this cream smells like one but the fragrance is absolutely incredible. It is very floral and very, very sweet. I bought this for my mum and she loves it! The cream has a light yellow-green white colour.
Glazed Apple: If you don’t like them too be too fruity or floral, you can check this one out. This hand cream smells like green apples with hints of flowers in it. As the fragrance diffuses, it still doesn’t become too sweet and bears the fragrance of apples. I feel like this one is a very festive fragrance and will smell incredible during Christmas time or simply during the spring or winter season. It has a pale green and white colour in it.

PRICE in India: INR 495 for Glazed Apple and Frosted Cranberry. INR 350 for Moringa. I think the prices are a bit extravagant considering the amount but these last for a long time. I am not a massive fan of the price though.
Will I repurchase? I will definitely repurchase Moringa and Cranberry.

I hope you liked this review! Do let me know your thought and opinions on these products if you have used them. Also, if you are a TBS fan like myself, let me which are your favourite beauty products from there!
Just a little something to all of you out there who might have been wondering why I haven’t been uploading any posts, I really like to work on my blog but over the past few months, I have been noticing that my posts are not visible under the tags I usually put them which resulted in low traffic in my blog. It is still persisting and it made me very disheartened and feel like you guys didn’t like my posts anymore. Which is why I ran away. I am very sorry if you guys felt annoyed about it. As you know I wish to become a professional blogger and plan on taking my Styles and Sensibilities to a whole new level, I decided that quitting now would be very wrong and that I would always regret it and question “What if…” all the time. Which is why I am planning on working on it. I am going to schedule days on which I will upload posts so that you guys will know when my next post is coming up. I just need a little more time to figure out which days work the best for me. To be very honest with you guys, I sat down and opened my blog today after 2 months or so and decided enough was enough. No running away. So I guess this post is like my come back post. Since I started back today, I will need some time to figure out what days work the best and plan out several articles.
The fact that my posts are not showing under tags still persists and I have no idea why. I tried to repair it but it is still not working. Hopefully it gets better soon and more people visit my blog. 
Lastly, a very BIG THANK YOU to all of you who are sticking by my blog and taking time to read it. I really appreciate it and will do my best to make it worth your while! 
Have a wonderful day ahead!

New Addition: Juicy Couture Perfume! Review!

Perfumes and I have a very strong bond. Our bond is greater than my love for chocolates. (Imagine that!) So when I received a Juicy Couture perfume, I was thrilled because I had never used a JC perfume before. I admired how it sat snugly amongst my old perfume pals, beautifully crafted into a Victorian styled perfume bottle. For me, the moment I had taken it out of its baby pink box, it was love at first sight.

I absolutely adored the shiny glass bottle with a big diamond cap and small pieces of decorations hanging from the brown rope tied across the neck.
If you have read my post on “My Perfume Collection”, you already know that I love collecting perfumes which come inside pretty bottles. By far, this is the prettiest bottle I own.

It had no name on the packaging so I looked it up online and saw several similar bottles but I think it is called the “Frosty Couture”, I THINK! I have no idea! I am so bad! 😛
I have heard a few people say that a particular fragrance that attracts you the most is the one that suits you the best. Now for me, I have always been attracted to floral, fruity and aquatic fragrances. I have to say I lean towards floral and fruity the most. I do love aquatic fragrances though!

Most of my perfumes have a floral fruity fragrance and I think it suits me.
So let’s go back to this perfume.
When I first sprayed it on my wrists, it had a very strong scent of Tuberose. In India, the scent of Tuberose or Rajnigandha is often spotted in wedding ceremonies and it is quite popular during the festivities as well which is why it was so familiar to me once I sprayed it on.
It also had undertones of watermelon, which gave the fragrance a splash of freshness.
It also had high notes of vanilla, patchouli, caramel and green apple. A few undertones which I could recognize besides watermelon were a few other flowers such as lilies and rose and it also developed a faint woody scent once the fragrance started to diffuse.
It has a decent staying power, it lasted for 3 hours on me but since it is not at all travel friendly, I couldn’t spray on some more. I do however love how it sits on my vanity and gives off a very pretty elegant vibe.
Do let me know if you have used this perfume from JC before and is Frosty Couture the right name for it? Let me know your thoughts on this perfume!

Detox Water for Clear Skin and Body!

What have you all been up to these days I wonder! 🙂 Well, whatever it is I hope you are enjoying it and making the most of it!

In my New Year’s resolution, there is one goal which I am very determined to achieve and that is “Eating Healthy”. Now I am only human! I cannot just drop every food item at once and stick to the absolute healthy ones. Frankly, no one can but if you are one of those rare people who actually did manage to do it, my hats off to you! 🙂

However, I decided to take baby steps and started scratching off one unhealthy food at a time and replaced it with the healthier version. If I drop everything at once, I will literally pounce of every fried food available after a month or so and we all know what that will lead to!

Meanwhile I decided to include a healthy drink in my life. Now if you have read my previous posts, you will know that I have a habit of drinking lemon water every morning before breakfast and I have not stopped yet. However, I thought why not add something healthier for me to sip on during the rest of the day? (As my hands and eyes always travel towards the cans of sodas and soft drinks…Blame my brain!) 😛

So today I would like to share with you a ‘Detox Drink’ which I learnt from my mother but found the recipe from good old Google! 🙂

I usually drink this for 2 days, 2 whole bottles, 1 liter each! (Too much? I started with one!) 🙂

What is absolutely wonderful about this drink is that it cleanses you body from deep within and it is 100% organic! To make this, you will require:

1. Cucumbers x 2 (A bottle each)
2. 10-12 Mint Leaves a bottle
3. Lemon x 2 (A bottle each)
4. Ginger (Half a tablespoon each)
5. Last but obviously not the least, Water!

All the ingredients above are available in our kitchen all throughout the year.

 

To make this, simply slice cucumbers into small pieces and grate a ginger. Squeeze out the juice from lemons, separate & crush the mint leaves.

In 1 liter bottle pour in the ingredients and let it sit and be soaked in by the water preferably for 12 hours. You can store it in the fridge and drink it the next day as a refreshing drink!

What are the benefits of this drink?

• Lemon juice is a master cleanser as it helps reduce weight in a very short time. It helps stop the craving for the unhealthy food. It also helps improve digestion. It helps the body by giving it a breathing time and a chance to repair itself. It helps flush out toxins making us more energetic and buoyant. The Vitamin C helps improve the immune system and overcome several common infections and diseases.
• The mint adds a little sweetness and a load of refreshment to this drink. Imagine this instead of mint chewing gums! It also helps improve digestion and stomach.
• Cucumber is famous for its anti-inflammatory properties. It is an excellent source of refreshment and hydration. It helps cool down our body and reduces any inflammation on the body. It also has anti-oxidant properties, which help fight heart diseases. It is also a wonderful support for the digestive system.They are low in calories which helps maintain and reduce unwanted weight.
• Ginger can be consumed powdered, dried or even fresh! It has fantastic medicinal properties which helps prevent common cold, nausea, flu and several others. Ginger has very powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps reduce morning sickness! It helps reduce the symptoms of nausea. It helps reduce muscle pain and soreness. It lowers cholesterol levels and reduces the risk of heart diseases.
• Water helps maintain the balance of body fluids. It also helps energize the muscles and makes the skin glow from the inside. Drinking water helps flush out the toxins from the body making it clear and the organs healthy and functional.

Now that you know few of the many benefits of the ingredients in the drink, combine them together. What do you get? The perfect drink to help your body and skin repair from with. Store it in the refrigerator and drink the chilled version, it is so refreshing and hydrating!

You can pair it up with strawberries, guava, kiwis and you favourite dry fruits. They are additional healthy bonus!

December Favourites!

Hello Everybody!

How is the new year going so far? Well I hope! 🙂

My new year so far has been marvelous! If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen the pictures of me hanging out and enjoying the new year cold! Sadly, the winter season is almost over here and it is quite sad as it is just January! Which is why I took the opportunity to go out more and enjoy the cold chills before the winter ends.

However, I have an exam in a few days!! That is actually the reason why I had not posted my Monthly Favourites post earlier. Usually I have it up in my blog by the 4th of every month but I was a little busy these past few days.

December had been the best month for me in 2015 because so much happened! If you read my latest post, “New Year Goals and Resolution”, you probably know what I am talking about. My sister left for the US and I have been lonely ever since! However, I am so happy for her! My best friend’s birthday was in December and I had so much fun last month! Winter is my favourite season and that is usually when I like to hang out more and wear amazing winter clothes!

I know you all came to read about my December Favourites so I will stop my ramblings and get right to it! 🙂

 

I will start with make-up items first so, the 2 lipsticks I absolutely loved using in December are Lady Bug from M.A.C. and Saucy Mauve from L’Oreal Paris. The consistency of of these lipsticks are just fantastic! They are so rich and creamy. I used Saucy Mauve pretty much everyday as it imparted such a lovely shade of pinky mauve which looked very natural and it hydrated my lips so much! I don’t really possess many red lipsticks but I really wanted a new one this year so I got the Lady Bug from MAC and wore it during the whole Christmas and New Year time period. Oh my goodness, it was heavenly! It was so creamy on the lips and smelled like cookies and cream! I loved using it so very much!

There are 2 nail polishes that I became obsessed with and they are Bling Thing from Maybelline Color Show Gold Digger Collection and Fresh Maker from Jenna Hipp. The Gold Digger Collection was newly launched in India last month and being the Maybelline lover that I am, I had to pick it up! It had a very festive vibe and I wore it during Christmas and New Year. Usually I steered clear from minty colours but when I applied the Fresh Maker I just fell in love with it! It is such a beautiful bright minty green colour! I would highly recommend it to everyone!

Lets’s move on to hair products!

How cute are these ribbon clips?

How cute are they?

They killed me with their cuteness!

I wore them every single day! These clips are just so adorable and perfect for the festive season! I can’t get enough of them!

I used the Garnier Oil-In-Cream twice and I think it’s pretty good! If you are running late and your hair looks horrible and in desperate need of oiling or moisture, I think this might help. (It is not a styling cream. You have to wash it off with shampoo) I am not exactly a big fan of this product but it helped me in time of need so… yeah…

I’d like to mention a book. It’s called Live Organic and it is by Lynn Huggins-Cooper. I learnt so much from this! It has topics such as, Mindful Eating, Vegetable Vitality, Dreadful Deodorants, Herbal Heaven, Organic Dairy Products and several others! It is so informative and eye opening. I’d really ask you guys to grab a copy of it! You wont regret it!

And do you see that little notebook with owls and other birds on a colourful tree? Yeah, I am a sucker for everything cute! I had to mention that absolutely pretty notebook! I love it so sooo much!!

And now (FINALLY!!) let’s talk about chocoloates!

Christmas and New Year is not special unless you have chocolates! Usually if I have chocolates, I will have a few squares or a few bites but the moment I bit into Cadbury Bubbly, I knew I was not going to be satisfied with just few bites. This is my 3rd pack, I believe! And the Biscotti has always been a favourite but it tasted even more delicious that time of year!

DELICIOUS DEATHS!! 😀

 

There you go folks! My December favourites! Hope you enjoyed it!

You can follow me on Instagram! (For unpopular pictures! 😛 ) Link is below the picture!

New Year Life Update! Resolutions and Goals!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!

It’s 2016 now so goodbye 2015! Thank you for such wonderful memories!! Now please go and join 2014!! 😀

With every New Year, comes new goals and resolutions, which most of us abandon by the end of first week of January! 😛 I did that every year! How many of you did the same? 😛

2015 brought some wonderful things for me. I opened up this blog in April and reached my first 1000 by November. I know compared to those bloggers out there with millions of followers it’s just peanuts but hey! Everyone had started one day with 1000 incredible subscribers, right? 🙂

Also in 2015, I finished my school years and started college! That was a big moment of excitement for me. I eagerly waited for my college years and now that they have arrived, I miss my high school years! Don’t we all? 😀 I changed my room’s appearance and made it look more mature, you know by spreading my make-up everywhere! 😀 (Tee-Hee-Hee!)

On Christmas day, my sister left for America to start her University. It happened really quickly. She got her visa and in 2 weeks time, she was gone. On Christmas day! 😛 I miss her. We talk regularly though. Strange, it hasn’t really sunk in yet, that she is gone. I guess that is natural!

I was very excited to start my college life in another city but I couldn’t leave home as I realised that I wanted to stay with my mother a little longer. I grew extremely attached to her during my home schooling period and the thought of leaving her so suddenly seemed wrong as she too seemed very sad and broken about the idea. Instead, I decided to study in correspondence, just like home schooling and on side I took graphic designing courses. Planning to start language classes/courses soon.

So for me, my goals and resolutions for New Year are pretty simple!

Ø  Start exploring various options to broaden your horizon.

Ø  Try out every new thing.

Ø  Be more active!

Ø  Eat healthier! (I ate way too many chips in 2015! Why do they have to be so crunchy and yummy? 😦 )

Ø  Be more organized and efficient! (Already started there! You should see my room! Cleaner than ever!)

Ø  Control shopping urges!

Ø  Save as much as possible!

Ø  Be informed at all times!

Ø  Start language courses!

Ø  Pass my first year college exam with flying colours!

Ø  Same for my graphic designing!

Ø  Work on my drawing!

Ø  Enjoy nature!

Ø  Be kind to the poor, old people and the dogs and puppies on the road.

Ø  Lastly, Start the new blog.

Now regarding my blog, I know I told you guys I would start it in 2016 but alas, I cannot. Trust me, no one is more annoyed than I am. Everything was ready but my parents object. With sister gone, the whole blog will be mine and I was taking the pressure too light heartedly. My parents say that I am rushing things too much. I need to focus on my 1st major college exam which is just a few months away.

I agree with them because I have way too many subjects. Since I was going to be studying from home, I decided to take on various subjects to diversify my options in future. I haven’t started studying yet and it has been worrying my parents and me. I obviously am not abandoning the idea! Hell no! I am way to deep in it and there is nothing I want to do more than blog. I will be posting here regularly no doubt so no worries you guys still have to put up with me! 😀 (Tee-Hee-Hee)

Also I opened my Instagram account a week or two before! You can catch me there as well!! 🙂

Sukanya Mukherjee- Sukanya_mjee

I hope you all are having fun with your loved ones close to you! If you have resolutions, make sure your 1st resolution is “Actually try and follow my resolutions!”:P Here is to our new year and our new adventures and journey!

Welcome 2016! 🙂

Life Update #3 + Announcement about The Heir Of Slytherin

December is here and I am so excited! I have so many plan for this month and I am determined to have lots of fun before 2015 ends! 🙂
So before I ramble on about what is going on in my life right now, there is an announcement I’d like to make about the fanfiction I was writing here; The Heir Of Slytherin. I am really sorry for the delay! I know many of you are waiting for the next chapter and I haven’t uploaded it. Well I’d like to inform you that I won’t be uploading the new chapters here anymore because this blog is changing and there won’t be any space for the story here. Fear not, I am not abandoning it. I am simply moving it to fanfiction.net!
I read a lot of fanfictions there and I recently opened up an account over there and I would be transferring the story to that platform.
So I will be leaving a link to the story in my next life Update post which will be coming up soon as it’s December! My favourite month! So if any of you would like to continue reading the story, here is an update for you! 😀

Also, do any of you read fanfictions over there? I just love reading those stories as they are so creative and fun! 🙂

I had a look-book picture session today and it went on for hours and I was so exhausted after that! The pictures came out really good, I think! I loved it! Can’t wait for you guys to see it!! Here’s to the new blog! So excited, are you?? 😀

I also spent the whole evening sitting under my blanket working on my multimedia project/exam which is on Monday! I also have to attend a wedding that very day which will start when I giving my exam and I don’t know if I’ll make it! 😛

Wish me luck for my exam!! (Will need it!) 😛

See you soon!
Bye! 😀

November Favourites! (2015)

Happy December! 😀

It is that time of the year again when we look back and remember all the crazy things we did in the past months! 🙂

December is already here and before you know it, we will be saying goodbye to 2015 and will be welcoming 2016 with huge grins! 🙂

November for me has been full of delight and entertainment! I have enjoyed each and every day of it and I am sorry to see it pass so quickly!

I have been very productive this month and have been working hard on my studies and on the new blog which I plan on starting before the New Year or maybe on New Year, I do not know yet! I want it to be special!! 🙂

I am not an angel! Not one bit! I have been torturing my sister and my mother with lots of pranks and mischief and I am very sure that they are not afraid of the Boogeyman anymore! 😛
There is something about winter months that make me want to pull various kinds of pranks and I almost (ALMOST) feel sorry for my two lovely ladies! 😛

But I am sure you do not want me to ramble on and on about it anymore! Let’s talk about the things I loved using in November! 🙂

For my hair, I have been using John Frieda Frizz Ease Curl Reviver Mousse on damp hair and I saw that my frizzy hair was a lot more managable then! So, yeah! I loved it! Used it almost everyday! I have 3 bottles of that, I think! Maybe 4?

The next product will confirm that I am obsessed with Bath and Body Works! I think in most of my Favourites posts, I have one lotion from B&BW in it! I can’t help how wonderful they are and I am sure many of you will agree with me! So I have been using Bath & Body Works Moonlight Path body lotion and more than half of it is gone!!

I have also been loving Colorbar Full Cover Make-Up Stick Concealer which I bought earlier this month and I have loved using it! If any of would like a detailed review on this product, let me know down in the comment section! 🙂

Maybelline Cheeky Glow Blush in Peachy Sweetie is another favourite! It provided such a lovely natural hue to cheeks! Been using it a lot!! 🙂

For my eyes, I have enjoyed using Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eyepencils in the shades Smoke and Sabbath. Super pigmented and long lasting! Did not have to worry about touch-ups!! 🙂

Throughout November, I have been applying various coloured nailpolishes and the ones that stood out most for me are:
Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy – In The Money 220
Jenna Hipp Nailpolishes in the shades Hollywood Reporter,After Party and Better Slate Than Never

The Jenna Hipp ones are chunky glitter ones in silver and rust respectively and the other one is an ashy colour with purple undertones in it while the Revlon one is an absolute favourite of mine right now. It is such a beautiful colour! I wanted to show you guys.

I wore my Maybelline Glitter Mania Nailpolish in the shade Bling on the Blue on my ring finger along with it and I think the added bonus of glitter makes it even more attractive! 🙂 It is a light green neon colour which is bright and pretty! I bought it a few days ago and have been wearing it since! 🙂

The next 2 things are stationery items. I had heard a few of friends talk about how you should be carrying sensible looking notebooks and diaries in college and not the colourful graphic ones like the ones we used back in school. I guess I didn’t grow up and mature like them! 😛 I still love using graphic notebooks and when I saw this one, I had to buy it!

I bought several of them in different colours and I love writing in them! Go Graphic Notebooks!!
I don’t know why but I love pencils which have erasers stuck on the top. I LOVE THEM!! I use them all the time and I bought another packet of them! How random of me! I can picture your expressions right now! 😀

Well that’s all folks! I hope you enjoyed this post!! Have a wonderful December! Enjoy with your loved ones!

Bake cookies and cakes and don’t worry about your weight!

Christmas and New Year is coming after all! Say Sayonara to your diet and dig in to those lovely gooey choco-chip cookies and hot chocolate!!

Have a wonderful day ahead!!
See you soon!
Bye! XO

Good Morning Everybody!

I woke up especially late today because my best friend and I had decided to pull an all-nighter with horror movies!! I am a big jelly when it comes to horror movies and I have a serious love-hate relationship with them!
So we went to bed around 3:45 but I couldnt sleep till 5am! I was sure if I closed my eyes, something would be looming over me!! I slept flat straight to keep an eye out for girls with long hairs peering over from corners! Sheesh! That sends shivers down my spine!!
So I woke up (pretty groggily) at around 9am (I am quite surprised I even closed my eyes!) and the first notification I saw was this!

How AMAZING is that?! 😀
Immediately I felt super energized!! I totally would have punched any ghost who tried to scare or interrupt me that moment!!
I have been waiting so long for this moment! Honestly, I haven’t been keeping any tabs on my followers so you can pretty imagine my shock! “I reached 1K?? Seriously?!” I was still groggy then! Took a while for it to seep in! I started this blog on 30th March and I did not expect such results in these few months!!

A very BIG THANK YOU to all of you out there who supported my blog and invested time in reading my articles!!
Much love and thanks!!!
Here is to 2K!!!

Love,
Sukanya!! 🙂
