Happy Women’s Day.

I hope we move away from token celebrations and see some real change soon.

You can’t choose your family, but you can choose

You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your friends. Do you think it is true?

Spotted this fellow at @secretgardenivy . I used to be so scared of cats and dogs. But not so much anymore. This guy came up to me and walked around my legs. I learnt that it meant he liked my aura.
.
Well, thank you Marlo for your stamp of approval. I can’t wait to bring my kids to this place. They are gonna love it!

Give me an excuse to wear a saree and I will. Even in Dubai. Even in 21 degrees (which is cold for a Bombay Girl)
.
This pure crepe saree is 16 years old. It was a gift for my wedding trousseau, and bought at @chhabra555india in Delhi. The saree was white with mukaish work done already and it had to be dyed. I was going thru a blue, turquoise phase then and hence picked out this colour. It turned out to be such a unique shade.
.
I kept my makeup and accessories minimal to let the saree shine. I was also going to be at a networking event and did not want to end up looking like a Christmas tree.
.
What do you guys think of this look?

When I moved to #Dubai two years back, I knew almost no one here. A few acquaintances, a few old friends, and a few old colleagues. Being in a remote job, I wouldn’t see anyone who didn’t live in house for days on end.
.
My kids school helped me expand my circle, new acquaintances and friends came about. Then, I started attending professional networking and conferences. I just love the energy at these places. Especially meeting women entrepreneurs and founders.
.
I’ve made the most of @stepconference Day 1. Hope today will be as fulfilling.
.
If you are going to be there today, let’s meet.

Stepping back in time at @riverlanddubai ‘s enchanting French village, where every corner is a nod to a bygone era. 🏡✨ The facades here are crafted to tell the story of old-world charm. I wandered these cobblestoned paths, wrapped in the aura of an old European village.

To escape into a slow and languid world, in the middle of a bustling metropolis like Dubai, is a marvel in itself. It is amazing how much impact our surroundings can have.

Do you have your havens like these around you? Which one is your favorite?

#2yearsago I was crossing my fingers just as I was about to head into lasik surgery with @drmehtahimanshu

The procedure was smooth. Dr Himanshu was playing old Hindi songs in the room softly, his staff knew what to do. The atmosphere was relaxed and gave me the comfort they’ve done this many times. Instantly reassuring.

I haven’t worn prescription glasses since.

Sailing into the weekend like a calm breeze over water. As the sun sets on another week, I find myself reflecting on the moments that made me pause, the laughter that lifted my spirits, and the challenges that taught me a little more about myself. Here’s to embracing the beauty of transitions, from the vibrant hustle of the day to the serene whispers of the evening. 🌅🛥️

Tell me, what are your plans for the weekend? Are you catching a break, chasing an adventure, or simply taking a moment to breathe in the beauty around you?
