Traditional is the new modern!
I remember the day when my cousin playfully told me that I wasn’t pretty and modern enough to understand fashion. Maybe because when everyone else in the class was busy writing ambitions in each others’ slam books, I was sitting at the corner, putting ideas in ink and imagination into colors. Maybe because I preferred gold medal at that age over the gold sequined dress. Even then I knew ‘fashion’ was something very personal and unique, instead of a ‘one size fits all’ formula that is updated each season like the mass production powered fashion houses would pay ad gurus to make you believe.
Fashion is like a signature- to each his (or her) own. It is the first, unspoken, spontaneous ‘hello’ you say to everyone you cross on the street. So why make it forgettable, why not squeeze in a little bit about yourself in there? I get upset seeing every other girl on the street in western outfits, making a boring attempt of keeping it “casual” and “modern”. I am not a fashion extremist. My wardrobe is full of vibrant, colorful dresses, gypsy trinkets, bohemian bags and handpicked tribal jewelry but I still wear neutrally toned coats, knee touching boots, body-hugging skirts or striped pants paired with blouses to work. But when it comes to wearing casuals on weekends, I always love infusing Indian, bohemian and western styles, creating a unique and wearable look.
Keeping my ranting aside and coming back to this post, I collaborated with this talented photographer, Shardul, who I’ve been friends with on Instagram for months, but had never actually met! We finally met for the first time the day we did this photo walk and spent a day traveling to different places in San Francisco while having a frenzied talk. My first encounter with San Francisco was exciting but I was equally nervous and lost in a city full of strangers, scouring craigslist postings every day to find an apartment, feeling lonely and making daily tearful phone calls to my family and close friends, trying to decipher why, when I will get used to staying completely alone. But eventually things started to fall into place, I found a-little-out-of-budget but an absolutely beautiful apartment with a bay-view, my own little room which I decorated with all the souvenirs I collected during my travels, settled in my new office, spending weekdays working hard and weekends exploring new places, new cities, making new friends and memories. Finally, I learned to be completely independent and comfortable in my own skin.
I walked out enthusiastically on California streets wearing a navy blue Indian kurta for this photo walk, which I had almost forgotten about since the time I bought it. I picked up oxidized silver neckpiece and earrings while scouting the local market in Colaba, Mumbai. I’ve teamed this FabAlley kurta with Zara pants and accessorized it with a bold oxidized ring I picked up from Venice beach in Los Angeles and finished the do with red stilettos from Steve Madden to balance the color tone and create a traditional-casual look.
Since many of you asked for the lookbook from my recent visit to India, here I am sharing some of my Indian traditional looks from my cousin’s wedding:

I have seen lots of useful issues on your web page about computers. However, I’ve got the view that laptop computers are still not quite powerful sufficiently to be a good option if you often do projects that require a great deal of power, including video editing and enhancing. But for net surfing, word processing, and many other common computer functions they are just great, provided you never mind your little friend screen size. Thank you for sharing your opinions.
Things i have seen in terms of computer system memory is that there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR and so forth, that must go with the specific features of the motherboard. If the personal computer’s motherboard is very current and there are no operating system issues, improving the memory literally will take under sixty minutes. It’s one of the easiest personal computer upgrade procedures one can imagine. Thanks for discussing your ideas.
Schöne ruhige 1-Zimmer Wohnung / Küche / BAD / WC / SAT-TV / Internet / Waschmaschine Im Grünen gelegene, komfortable, am Ende einer Sackgasse, helle ruhige 1-Zimmerwohnung mit separatem, eigenem Eingang. Die Wohnung wurde im Mai 2018 komplett renoviert und Neu eingerichtet. Parkplatzmöglichkeiten gibt es auf der öffentlichen Straße und sind in der Regel immer vorhanden. Die Wohnung hat einen 40 Zoll Sat-TV, eine Waschmaschine, sowie Internet (Wlan) gegen eine kleine Gebühr. Ein Bügeleisen und Bügelbrett sind ebenfalls forhanden. In der Küche finden Sie neben einem Backofen mit Cerankochfeld, eine Geschirspülmaschine, einen Kühlschrank mit 4-Sterne Gefrierfach, eine Kaffeemaschine ,Wasserkocher sowie einen Toaster. Der Schoko- “laden“ Werksverkauf der Weltberühmten Marke Ritter Sport sowie das Ritter Museum und das Ritter Museums-Café erreichen sie nach ca. 450 Meter bzw. 6 Minuten zu Fuß. Für Naturliebhaber lädt der schöne Schönbuch-Wald direkt vor der Haustüre zu Spaziergängen oder Wanderungen ein. Waldenbuch liegt am Nördlichen Rand des Waldgebiets und gleichnamigen Naturparks Schönbuch ca. 17 km südlich von Stuttgart und hat ca. 8500 Einwohner. Nach Böblingen sind es ca.14 km, nach Tübingen ca. 19 km und zur Messe Stuttgart ca. 12 km. Idyllisch im Tal gelegen strahlt Waldenbuch heute mit seinen Fachwerkhäusern, Brunnen und Staffeln im historischen Altstadtkern einen ganz besonderen Charme aus. Sowohl die Stadtkirche St. Veit mit ihrem 36 Meter hohen Kirchturm als auch das wunderschöne Schloss begeistern die Gäste. 24h Check-In nach Absprache möglich Lebensmitteldiscounter wie Lidl, DM-Drogerie-Markt, Penny Markt und Getränkemarkt erreicht man zu Fuß in ca. 5 bis 20 Minuten. Durch die ruhige aber dennoch zentrale Lage der Wohnung ist man mit dem Auto in kurzer Zeit in Stuttgart, Tübingen, Esslingen, Böblingen der Outlet-Stadt Metzingen oder Sindelfingen.
Things i have observed in terms of laptop memory is the fact there are requirements such as SDRAM, DDR and the like, that must fit in with the requirements of the mother board. If the pc’s motherboard is fairly current while there are no computer OS issues, upgrading the memory literally usually takes under a couple of hours. It’s on the list of easiest personal computer upgrade types of procedures one can imagine. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

A few things i have observed in terms of laptop or computer memory is that often there are features such as SDRAM, DDR and so on, that must match up the features of the mother board. If the personal computer’s motherboard is very current and there are no main system issues, modernizing the memory literally takes under a couple of hours. It’s one of many easiest pc upgrade methods one can consider. Thanks for spreading your ideas.
Thanks for enabling me to achieve new thoughts about desktops. I also possess the belief that certain of the best ways to maintain your laptop computer in best condition is to use a hard plastic-type case, or maybe shell, that fits over the top of one’s computer. These kind of protective gear will be model specific since they are made to fit perfectly within the natural housing. You can buy all of them directly from owner, or from third party sources if they are for your notebook computer, however don’t assume all laptop may have a covering on the market. Again, thanks for your tips.
One thing I would really like to say is the fact that before getting more pc memory, take a look at the machine in which it would be installed. If the machine can be running Windows XP, for instance, the particular memory limit is 3.25GB. Putting in greater than this would just constitute a new waste. Make certain that one’s mother board can handle this upgrade amount, as well. Interesting blog post.
Thanks for sharing your ideas here. The other issue is that when a problem occurs with a computer system motherboard, folks should not consider the risk regarding repairing this themselves for if it is not done properly it can lead to permanent damage to the entire laptop. It’s usually safe to approach a dealer of a laptop for any repair of that motherboard. They have technicians with an experience in dealing with mobile computer motherboard difficulties and can carry out the right diagnosis and accomplish repairs.

If the personal computer’s motherboard is pretty current while there are no operating-system issues, changing the ram literally requires under one hour. It’s among the easiest laptop upgrade techniques one can picture. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Thanks for the tips you have shared here. Something else I would like to express is that pc memory needs generally rise along with other advances in the engineering. For instance, if new generations of processor chips are introduced to the market, there’s usually a related increase in the size calls for of both the computer system memory and also hard drive room. This is because the software operated by means of these processors will inevitably surge in power to use the new technologies.
Good blog post. Some tips i would like to add is that laptop or computer memory needs to be purchased but if your computer still can’t cope with whatever you do along with it. One can install two RAM boards containing 1GB each, for example, but not certainly one of 1GB and one with 2GB. One should look for the car maker’s documentation for one’s PC to ensure what type of memory is required.
I’ve learned newer and more effective things by your website. One other thing I’d prefer to say is that often newer personal computer os’s are inclined to allow more memory for use, but they likewise demand more storage simply to work. If people’s computer can’t handle extra memory and also the newest computer software requires that memory space increase, it usually is the time to buy a new Personal computer. Thanks

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any problems of
plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it
looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you
know any ways to help protect against content from being ripped off?
