I found some of these creepies at Kuala Lumpur’s Ocean Park…

Creepy Crawlies

Underbelly of a Shark

A Hairy Tarantula

Diwali this year… Thankful for the blessings…

Mandatory Diwali poses, bling for the home and for me, prayers and lights…

Wore a Kanjeevaram mom gifted me when Aadya was born and Coral Jewellery that was bought in Chennai just before my wedding.

This #karwachauth I wore my engagement saree. It is a heavily embroidered number. So I wished to keep everything else simple. But once I started to get ready, just kept adding one thing after another and this is the final look. Lots of bangles and bling. The makeup is minimal though.
.
Blessed to have had a day of rest and relaxation with the family. Then girlie time with some new friends and old.
.
Today, I am counting my blessings.

I said No today. To someone close, to someone I treat with respect, to someone I make allowances for. And today, I thought the ask was unwarranted. So I did something I don’t normally do. I said No. I did not justify or explain. I just said, I can’t do it.
.
Later, I began to feel bad. I was already making excuses for someone else’s behavior. And then, I caught myself. Maybe it is the people pleaser side of me, maybe it is the societal conditioning to say Yes. Maybe it is both.
.
It was a big deal for me. I defined a boundary today. And it is okay. I need to make my peace with it. There may be more of you out there. In the same headspace. Don’t blame yourselves.
.
It is okay to say No when you feel the ask is not justified.

If this is what the future looks like, I am not sure I like it.

Museum of the future was a little bit of a disappointment, to be honest.

But the makeup game was on point… check out the last slide!

My go to makeup look lately. My eyes are dry and irritated so nothing on the eyes. Not even kajal which has been my go to product since early 2000s!

A sheer coverage glowy foundation. In this pic, I am using the Sephora Best Skin Ever Foundation. I love how easy to apply it is and lasts all day. It hydrates my skin and does not oxidize on me. A winner by @sephoramiddleeast . In my 40s, my go to full coverage mattifying foundation no longer works. My skin used to be really oily in my 20s and 30s, so I could never pull this off. Also, glowing skin is trending so Matte looks dated.

I am going through a muted lip phase. Most of my current lip colours are variations of peach, pinky brown, mauve etc. Here I am wearing @maybellinearabia Maybelline Superstay Vinyl Ink in Peachy.

I have loads of blush on. Something new I do these days . It helps add colour to my skin. Here I am wearing my trusted Lilas D’Or by Bourjois. My favourite blush since 2010! @bourjoismiddleeast

What do you guys think of this look?

Glimpses of #Baku Old City or #Icherisheher 1: c

Glimpses of #Baku Old City or #Icherisheher

1: cobbled streets just outside miniature book museum
2: courtyard of The palace of the Shivanshahs
3: hand woven carpet hanging
4: outfit of the royal women
5: architectural details, apparently these were studded with precious stones and hand painted tiles in the times of glory
6: grille motifs on windows looking out into the courtyard
7: outside the palace
8: grapevines on trellis in the courtyard
9: a section of the old city wall
10: couldn’t resist posing with the fountain

We went in the middle of August and it was too hot to walk around. The distances are small, but the weather was a dampener. If you have kids, the area is not stroller friendly at all.

The palace has a small entry, for visiting inside and looking at the museum. More than the exhibit, roaming in the palace corridors and rooms was worth the fee. We explored on our own and it took slightly over an hour to see the palace.

Vacation Hair looked fabulous! Got them done at @ivybeautyandbubbles_dubai the day before I flew. Thank you Ahmet for a fabulous job. I’ve never had better looking hair on a vacation :)

#JulyPhotoDump

July was hot, chaotic, invigorating, exhausting and lovely all at once.

1. I tried dressing up like Gen Z, not once, not twice but thrice. Loose jeans have entered the closet
2. One gorgeous Ilkal saree was worn.
3. Lots of people were met. For work, for conversations, few pictures were taken.
3. One swimming session was attempted before realising the 200 meter walk to the pool in the heat is not a good idea.
4. Equal amounts #gratitude and #frustration was experienced about being a work from home mom
5. Nostalgia was experienced looking at my special watch. The story is on LinkedIn. Comment if you want the link
6. The futility of having multiple social accounts on one platform was pondered upon…
