A.L.W.A.Y.S.

 Sudden urge to go back to Paris.

                                                               The scent of romance

Truly in the air

The tower where I hope to be kissed someday

Of cafes and corners

Of street style, sleek legs and daunting heels

There lies no reasoning in not going...the answer will always be, I DO

designer's day out

One of the most fun days I've had. The start of Salone del Mobile with a couple of friends. "Asians day out" it came to be known as. From misleading pineapple, i mean potato pizzas, landing up at a cement company only to meet "lady gaga", a bus ride back filled with continuous laughter, only to end with a fabulous Design Dance performance.

And everything was going to be just fine.

Breakfast at tiffany's

I love expression, of varied forms.

I love painting. 

The feel of stroking against a canvas brings, if there was a word beyond joy, ecstasy.

Audrey Hepburn, how I do admire you.

Flee to the flea market

I went to the flea market to get a bicycle. What I thought would be a long journey, took me fifteen minutes. Of all that I saw at the market, I was attracted to a beautiful, colorful poster. 

Look at the way she poses

not a care in the world

happy, bold, refreshed

and free

She is up on my wall.

trinkets for keepsake

The pleasure of walking down the street aimlessly and suddenly finding that tiny little trinket, that gets you excited the whole day. You choose oh so carefully wanting just the perfect ones, put it into your sack, and can't wait to get back home and unwrap it again to see and feel how wonderful it is.

And the best part is, it's yours and only you can love it as much as you do. Shhh...don't tell anyone. It's our tiny little secret...
