Outfit :Chantilly dress in retro style

I have a inclination for vintage wear , especially chantilly .... I thinks its looks very classy & elegant. The moment I see chantilly I go back to the golden era where ladies were dressed in gowns and lovely dresses ... The best thing about chantilly is that its complete in itself , just accessorize well and you are ready to go !
I had to attend a mehandi function on Sunday , Punjabi functions means full on rock & roll and drinks !!
Yes the essential part of punjabi wedings is drinks !! Mehandi is a very casual function where close friends and family members are seen  in attendence.I wanted to do a casual and fun look so decided to wear my chantilly dress with tights.

I like it when hubby dearest gives his opinion about my outfit and look , it was his suggestion to opt for a red lipstick with this look :)

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi

Wishing everyone a very happy Ganesh Chaturthi.Those of you who don't know about this I will brief you a bit. Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated on the occassion of birthday of Lord Ganesha, the son of Lord Shiva & Parvati.Ganesha is widely worshipped as the god of wisdom, prosperity and good fortune and traditionally invoked at the beginning of any new venture or at the start of travel.

I have made new set of friends from Mumbai , where this festival is celebrated in full swing, so I also decided to do celebration  at home as i got inspired by my bunch of girl friends.



Aloo puri, Besan Ladoo & Tomato Chutney were part of my prasad.
It took me about 2 hours to prepare it....

Besan Ladoos


My Thali had aloo sabzi, boondi raita , tomato chutney and puri :)




Pooja time :)


So how did you celebrate this festival ?
Hope you have been hogging some modaks/ladoos :)
