Not the Shade of Grey

I recently updated my status to "You focus on Shades-of-Grey, I do on Tinge-of-Red"

Isn't it true? It is so easy for people to say how you don't look 'fine' as per their understanding but so difficult to say one nice thing for once. It's not entirely their fault but ours! Nine people tell us we look fab and we smile and thank them. One says, your nose looks odd and we spend the entire day in front of the mirror with self doubt and loath.

I have decided to be kind to people and pity the ones who have negative to say about me without any genuine concern. :) Just one life; decision to be happy!

Talking about one life and being happy- Look what came in the mail today? These gorgeous bow red bellies. Just what I needed this week! These babies from New Chic, also come in Black & Dutch Blue. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think of this post :*

Coral Star Struck: Singapore

Hey all

This is the third in my Singapore series. Look where all I went on my Day 1 and Day 2. I was star-struck on my 3rd day in Singapore. Met so many celebrities and had a gala time with them. It was mostly a one-sided conversation since they were keen listeners and patient posers. Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio, Madhuri Dixit, etc. were some of the celebrities I happened to meet all in one room- Madame Tussauds' in Singapore.

Was so pleased by the few hours I had spent with them that I decided to hit the beach and see some light. We went to Siloso and palawan beaches in Singapore which are in the same coastline. Beaches make me so happy that I don't mind the blazing sand or the bright sun on my skin. I'm more of a sunny person and dislike being closer to the mountains and/or colder places. You can understand my plight when I tell you that I'm back in Delhi and how freezing the temperature here is (according to me). Even the thought of beach sends warm feelings throughout.

After spending a good amount of time getting tanned; we proceeded towards the Sentosa Fun Pass inside the island. I researched so much about these rides and discovered that the following ride/places would be most eventful in Sentosa Island, singapore. I chose the 5 rides pass.

1) Madame Tussauds- Wax statue of celebrities

2) Images of Singapore LIVE (compulsory if you take Madame Tussauds)

3) S.E.A. Aquarium- World's largest walk-in aquarium

4) Trick Eye Museum- Goes by its name and,

5) Skyline Luge- Most fun thing to do!

Now, Enjoy the pictures!

Yellow: Singapore

I was thinking ideas of my next post and that's when it hit me; I haven't shown you guys pictures of my trip to Singapore. The reason is also very clear- that was the time when I became an instagrammer. The only reason why I had an account and didn't post pictures regularly was because I didn't have any! Come Singapore and I had hundreds. So here you go: part 1 of the many posts that you will see on my blog every now and then.

On our way to Gardens by the Bay

Singapore is such an incredible place to have a vacation in; I know now. One day we were sitting at home and I came across this post about cheap destinations (flight) from India. While Singapore isn't really that cheap but it came last in the list. I happened to just check the prices of flight and made a list of places we can go to, in descending order. I pitched (yes pitched) the idea to my dad and he asked me to check hotel prices of Singapore. By evening, I was checking what one can do in Singapore and the price attached to it. Within a week of it, I was planning itinerary! The thing about planning and akanksha is that, we can never go wrong. I love planning so this was like my very own baby. I planned each and every hour with back-up places to visit so that we can utilize maximum from the 4-day trip. We had so much fun you guys so if anyone needs an itinerary/tips for Singapore then let me know. I promise I won't charge a penny ;)

Years to LookBack

It's been 5 years since I've started blogging and the journey has been quite amazing. This isn't a 'blogging-has-taught-me-so-much' moment, although it did! But, I just wanted to look back at all the fabulous pictures and tried to recall the fun I had during the photoshoot. So in this post I'll be sharing the amazing moments and what I love about that outfit :)

Sit back and relax!

The first time I wore a lipstick. Gosh! I was so nervous as I know nothing about makeup, the right shade or even to wear one but, I did it anyway. It's about feeling good right? So I felt.

I did the basic white and black look here and completed it with two different accessories- a hat and a floral headband.

This was a very sunny day and I sort of regretted wearing those pants (not mine!) so I said to myself, 'Hey! Why not try something new' and so I tied my favorite scarf and voila!

You'd see this sling bag in so many posts. This is undoubtedly one of my favorite bags. It is stylish, light and so useful to carry on a day-out, date or a party.

I asked my friend who is a photographer, to click some nice pictures for my shopping haul. We went out to Carter road, Bandra and had a blast while shooting it; never-mind the sun!

My favorite thing about this outfit was the blue canvas shoes. They are my brother's but I gave a twist to it by going lace-less ;)

Goa is so much fun with friends! We danced to Lean On, partied under the stars, sun-bathed at Candolim beach and kept ourselves hydrated with watermelon & kiwi juices!

I finally found a reason to wear crop tops and my leather shorts (in India). I had worked so hard to prepare a toned body for Goa and the results were truly fruitful.

This outfit is again from Goa Diaries. The sun was upon us but hey, it's always great for photoshoots!

I hadn't wore this magnificent dress for like-ever. With my body in shape and at the right place, I took out my floral headband and let my hair down. It felt so airy and light in this piece of maxi-dress.

My last academic farewell was so emotional and fun-filled. Click on the picture above to read more :)

I'd have to say, I had not gained as much as eye-balls 'in college' as I did that day when I wore this nude-colored elegant piece of jumpsuit. My first, yes!

At last, the bidding goodbye to Mumbai pose. This picture was taken at Worli Sea Face. I loved everything about that day, the weather, fresh air and my natural waves.

I have to admit, I have so many blues but this kind of blue sets my mood high: such a paradox! This romper glides over my skin so well and the lacework is just so splendid.

I love to organize my photo albums with nice and customized designs. Look how I created my own lookbook for Social Print Studio's custom photo books.

Waiting for your views.

xoxo
