Fashion Weeks are those two weeks in a year when the fashion enthusiasts get into their best of attires, strutting their way through the crowd of those who cheer tassels and bomber jackets more than an elementary chaos of monochrome mundaneness that otherwise consumes us all. While we all wish to be in our best of attires 365 days of the month, these few select days are when we give in our 100% to look the best versions of ourselves. Keeping up with the requirements, and given the 2nd yearly season of the fashion week commences during the Indian festive season, I collaborated with Tacfab Fashions to be my style partners for one of the days of the fashion week. Tacfab Fashions Pvt. Ltd. operates under the parent company, Sahib Textiles, which is a 65 years old textiles house. They are into wholesale dress material and fabric manufacturing business since 1947.

After spending an hour with the brilliant team of Tacfab Kamla Nagar and trying out an array of dresses, anarkalis, pakistani palazzo-kurti sets and some really amazing off-the-runway fusion dresses, I picked up this really vibrant Anarkali to wear to the fashion week. Their are so many things that I loved about this look. 1stly, the ombre dye-design of the Anarkali definitely anted up the design quotient manifolds. The fitting was absolutely complimenting around the torso with a voluminous skirt falling below the waist to floor lengths for added drama. The side slit of the Anarkali made me feel like the Indian Angelina Jolie at times (no kidding) while the hassled and embellished dupatta turned out to be the star of the overall look. The best part about …

Knock, knock, Diwali is here! Everyone at home is high on energy during the pre-Diwali days. There is so much to be cleaned, to be decorated and so much to prepare for! Diwali shopping is always in order, and I look no further than Select CITYWALK for any of my shopping needs. A brand that has become synonymous with high-quality luxury products across various categories is my go-to one-stop shop! The recent trip to the shopping center in Saket was all about bringing in some stunning décor before the big Diwali bash at home. My first stop was Oma. I absolutely love – LOVE the collection there! Their exquisite collections of tealight candle holders and candlesticks are the perfect additions to the dinner table. You may even deck up the patio using them. The next place I visited was Le Cruset. The place stole my heart with its range of stainless steel cookware and colorful bakeware. Your hands just itch to pick them up as you browse through the collection on display. This time it was about picking up some warm-colored casseroles and serving trays. There was going to be a lot of food up for grabs at the party and you want it to look picture perfect. Diwali shopping at Select CITYWALK is always a lot of fun but what made it all the more special was that they have just completed an amazing 10 years! That is 10 years of incredible shopping experience for Delhi. To celebrate their 10th birthday, Select CITYWALK decided to do something special and heartwarming. Through their initiative, “Khushiyon ki Diwali”, they are fulfilling the wishes of 10 underprivileged kids. I read about one of them: Arpit’s wish was to watch a cricket match in the stadium with his friends. It was so …
