Do what you love,love what you do.
Flowers has definitely power to change our mood in many ways.It looks so beautiful watching flower arrangement in weddings,events, birthday s etc.They comes in many shapes and sizes so are “we”.why can’t we accept all humans are unique with different qualities.As banch of different flowers can make a bouque. We all together can make this world a positive and beautiful place.
Let’s try to save planet by not cutting trees, instead growing more trees and flowers ofcourse.😊
As we are in that phase of life,where human contact is not advisable phewww.Many people, including me are binge watching shows , movies and what not😉.
Isn’t internet , Netflix, prime, social media and all other platform seems like a boon in this difficult time in our life.Imagine what if lockdown has happened way before social media , internet era,Ooops don’t even want to think about it,how boring our lives would have been , atleast we are keeping little sanity by watching our favourite shows and doing what we like and always wanted sometime out of our hobby.Otherwise,In the hoard of making money and paying bills,all were tired and exhausted.we still are, nothing really changed as much but atleast we have sometime to do what we like.OH! coming back to binge watching.Nowdays a not so famous show has become my favourite “Jane-the virgin”,yes it is kind of chick flick,but hey many women also like superheroes too.So man ,why not chick flick.I am not saying man should definitely watch these shows, just that sometime chickflicks are fun too.
So the story revolves around three latin-american woman,Jane is the main character who artificially gets inseminated..she is basically a teenager who wants to become a successful writer ,but with this incident comes as a shocker,later she decides to raise a child . she finds out the father of her accidently artificially inseminated child was her crush where she works.Then they fall in love but she already has a boyfriend,then she chooses between the two ,gets confused.There are lot of up downs in her life and her mother and grandmother mother.It is a rom-com series with dreams,life, aspirations of young girl.
It’s good to binge on some light hearted, different story genre.
Who doesn’t love makeup?.Most of the woman loves makeup and let me make this clear “we ain’t do it for boys”. Generally fasination about makeup starts right from childhood when a little girl grew up watching their mother put something on face to enhance beauty.
It doesn’t always mean to be pro. One can always learn.For some people it could be only mascara as makeup ,for some it could be only blush/lipstick.I mean everybody has their own version of makeup love.
So colorbar has come with this interesting idea ,where you learn and develop your makeup.I think it would be good idea to brush up amateur skills.Paint a face like a pro.
As the title predicts,to save the fashion designer artisans in general of all sorts.I love this initiative where 14 Indian designers come together to save them from famine as the time is hard during pandemic.
There is always a soft corner on my heart for artisans who worked so much hard to make a fashion designer stand out.Of course ,a designer also works as hard as artisans to brainstorm a design,but without this creaters of weaving a vision into a garment fashion industry would have not been where it is now.As the world rank states”Textile industry is world’s second to share country’s GDP”
So these designer’s are selling their two best designs and share the profits with artisans.I people who can afford there designs should definitely support this initiative.I definitely love the cause.I am proud of such designers who thinks about people who are backbone of designer’s.All 14 designer’s listed below.

Agroup of 14 Indian designers have come together to set up a charitable initiative titled ‘Saving the Artist’ to support traditional artisans and craftspeople during lockdown and keep India’s craft traditions alive.
14 designers are selling their most popular products to aid artisans and domestic violence survivors – Jayanti Reddy- Facebook
Saving the Artist was recently launched by a group of designers as a fundraiser to aid artisans. Designers included Neeta Lulla, Farah Sanjana, Shriya Som, Archana Rao, Shehla Khan, Gabriella Demetriades, Jayanti Reddy, Akanksha Gajria, Nitya Bajaj, Eishita Puri, Sohni Patel, Shirin Mann, Suman B, and Ridhi Mehra.
Each designer will put up two of their most popular designs for sale on Instagram and the proceeds from the sale will be divided between the brands’ craft workers and NGO Sneha to support those affected by domestic violence.
“The #savingtheartist initiative has been created to help our unsung heroes of fashion who keep our industry vibrant and flourishing,” participating designer Jayanti Reddy wrote on her eponymous brand’s Facebook page. “In the hope to raise funds to support our embroiderers, tailors, and artists we’re putting together a group of 14 designers from the fashion industry and are coming together as a creative community to help support the families of our workers that need us more than ever right now.”
“This initiative to save the artist is to promote the backbone of our fashion family- our workers/ artisans,” Neeta Lulla told the Bombay Times.
Many artisans and craftspeople are daily-wage labourers and have struggled as work has dried up during lockdown due to safety concerns and regulations. Some brands have continued to pay their workers’ salaries when they have not been able to work but others have stated that they do not have the resources to do so facing almost zero income during lockdown.
Who doesn’t love D-I-Y (do it yourself).when you can turn boring things into attractive gaze , that’s something this diy fashion designer is doing.She is turning boring clothes into beautiful clothing.I like the way she turns plain simple dress into trendy dress.She uses her sewing to turn a ill-fitting garments into hip one.I can think she can make any not so attractive piece of clothes in to wearable fashion garment.https://instagram.com/sarahtyau?igshid=s9xix4mgro40

The world is at hault,we are amidst lockdown getting bored at home, Thinking about businesses,paycuts,salaries,tensed about future.I have never imagined this kind of days will come in life where everything will be blurred and in blues.Well,I can’t really stop what’s happening around ,but I feel there is no harm in learning developing new skills maybe for future or just for fun.Dig into your oyster of talent. I truly believe each one of us is talented it’s just that people around filled us with negativity and self-doubt,shhhhh them away we don’t need that kind of energy anyway.If it’s selfish to live for yourself a little be it.I mean “why not”?.

When branded stuff comes cheap,it doesn’t hurt pocket.Factory outlet products are branded but manufacturers sell it directly so it is pretty cheap as compared to retailers.Sometimes you can get good products.Do check out factory outlet stores in your city/nearby areas.Never know you might just get lucky to grab your dream brand product in cheap.
We always talk about Designer’s and latest trends,often forget about appreciating about how it all started and their share of struggle.As fashion world is cruel and crowded place now.Back in late 19th century fashion designing was a growing industry.In this era there were few players who had made the legacy of fashion designing.Because of those legends of fashion the industry is booming ,people became aware of a fashion.India,in olden days parents were skeptical about fashion as a career but due to some great designers fashion industry started blossoming. Back in those days fashion designing wasn’t a respectable career ,people use to think spoiled brats choose fashion,even today that mindset is still there but it is evolving. .In today’s era textile and apparels are most important and leading industry in the world.Textile industry does hold unique position and helps contributing in country’s GDP.I am sure there are lots of designer’s who has shaped fashion industry. According to me below jotted down designer’s are pioneers.How they have immerged through their struggles.There are designer’s who never had formal education ,but they have made it big in industry.
He started with a retail industry as sales man at brooks brother, before launching his first collection of neckties.He was selling them at large departmental stores, including blooming dales under the brand name “polo”. Ralph Lauren created classic clothing line for menswear.lauren invented classy sports wear. Though he achieved immense success as a designer but company had a share of low point where he had to pay huge amount of money to settle a case. Despite every hurdles he immerged like a true star.
This man is a magician in his craft.Almost every bride dreams about wearing Sabyasachi lehenga on her wedding. His work is surreal. But Sabyasachi also has his share of struggle,He wanted to became a designer, parents refused his desire to purse a career in fashion. So he ran away from his home to work as waiter in Goa .He even sold his books to appear in nift exams. Then slowly and gradually he started off his label with mere 20k,from there on he never looked back. His choice of fabric, embroidery, craftsmanship is a work of a genius. And I love his show “band baaja bride” with my most favourite host ambika anand they both are fabulous in their profession. According to me Sabyasachi looks most generous person in this world.

When I was in school I was really bad in sketching and drawing. I use to keep my drawing books with my bestfriend as she was good in drawing and painting.But seeing other people with good drawing skills it always fascinated me ,there was a seed urging inside to learn drawing skills.Somehow I never entertained urge in school days.Then many years past by I did fashion designing there also I tried to be good in drawing,this time I was really trying hard to learn those skills but that Didn’t happen.Again after getting married I decided to learn sketching ,so I joined classes to learn fashion illustration as it allows fascinate me.Through the learning process I started sketching potrait and I was being pretty good with drawing potraits.So I discovered something which was there in me but I ignored, still I can’t say I am an artist but atleast I am doing what I love to do and growing. Sketching for me is like meditation.I feel everyone should have some hobby in life to keep you grounded,make life less chaotic.Here goes few sketchings done by me.
Also I am very much inspired by few fashion illustraters they are amazing in there field of work.
