A Cuppa Joe. Or Kadak Chai?


As part of ‘Dining in 2015′ (a contest that had designers design a food-related product that would still be useful in 2015) , was this interpretation of a Turkish coffee set by Esli Alovi that I absolutely loved. The design not only takes into consideration everything required for the preparation of coffee, right from cooking it right at the table to actually serving it, but also integrates form with function with its beautiful use of materials (copper and ceramic) and contemporary design.

Turkish coffee is a lil’ too bitter for me but I would sooo figure out a way to make ‘chai’ in that. Love, love, love the design.

Monogramouflage: Your Daily Dose Of Fug


Monogramouflage is the new line from Louis Vuitton that marks a collaboration between Marc Jacobs and Takashi Murakami…

Never been a fan of the monogram and this is just taking things a bit further into fugville. Considering how obsessed our Bollywood ladies are with LV, wonder how long it’d be before we see one of these on their arms…

*Shudders*

Print. Or Not?


The Sabyasachi dress that Sabina wore couple of months ago was alright but she wore it well and that made all the difference. This time around spotted her in an all black ensemble, accentuated with color in way of accessories; a far cry from the previous print and color that she had donned on… and we loved it.

The LBD is our pick, the edited accessories and pulled back hair elevated the look… she looked great… you agree?

I think these rice bag pillows are so crazy, over the top, kitschy and oh-so-nutty…I adore them! Fun.

Whats your verdict?

More Of That Black & Gold


After just being seen at the red carpet of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane na in a black and gold sari, Nandita was spotted at the press meet of “Firaaq” in yet another black and gold churidar kameez.

Dig either or neither?
