Did you Know?

           When we were invited for an event to check out Imran Khan's collection for Denizen, we were a little skeptical. Not because we didn't love Imran (of course we do!) but because we've often see how a well known celebrity just lends his name to a collection without actually contributing to it, which is always very disappointing! We went anyway just to meet the chocolate boy ;) and were happy to see how personalized his collection is.

For instance,
1) Imran is the inquisitive kinds and is always teased by his friends as 'Wikipedia' so he came out with this range of cool T-shirts with the phrase 'Did you know?' on it.
2) Imran loves the colour red and tried incorporating it in his collection in varied ways like, the red rivet on the coin pocket, and the last button of all the shirts are red (which look really funky btw!)
3) Also since Imran love the natural, chilled out look, he has given all the t-shirts a vintage wash giving them a buttery feel!

   Some pictures from the event (to make y'all jealous) :P


  (The 3rd shirt from the left is Imran's personal favourite!)


                                       (Love how the cuff of the jeans has red accents. A unique idea!)




                                                     (Yes, he looks hot from all angles!) :D


                                                     (Sorry for the sad quality of this pic!)

So would we recommend his collection to our lovely readers?
If you are a college going, laid back guy and like Imran's cool style then definitely. 
And we completely recommend the jeans as we personally love the quality and fit Denizen offers. Also the jeans from his collection are made while keeping in mind the usually big Indian hips :P (That's what Imran said! Don't catch our necks!) :D
And you definitely need to buy from this collection if you are a die hard fan of Imran Khan coz it is completely personalized by him. :)

The sad part was that his collection was only for men this time but he said he'll look into the female category for the Fall/Winter collection. Also check this collection out if you want boyfriend jeans or want to create some cool androgynous looks.

 What do you think of his collection? Would you buy pieces from it?

Now about the most exciting part! Yeah even more exciting than Imran, was that we met so manly lovely fellow bloggers. It was an absolute treat! We had a blast talking about our blogs, fashion and of course gossip. We made some new friends and we totally loved the fact that the event was held on a one on one interaction with Imran only for bloggers.
Some awesome fellow bloggers we met were Ila Johari, Amena, Suniti, Karishma, Ritcha and BA
Do check out the blogs of these lovely ladies. :)

Privacy! Is it a lot to ask?

            In this city of dreams, with its light, passion and vigor, there seems nothing that cannot make us happy. Yet time and again, as much as we love Mumbai, we struggle to cope with how it works. Space, privacy are words unheard of over here.
           People cannot keep a distance, cannot respect your privacy even if you are one of those kinds who hardly socialize. This constant need to know the details of all the people in your life might be frustrating someone beyond measure (example = us!). Really! What exactly is so interesting about what's going on in my love life? or what i'm studying? And now that you've poked and prodded me till I answer all your nosey questions, who gave you the right to judge? So i'm just doing ordinary B.A. while your boy is doing engineering? Well! Congo aunty and thanks for the unasked information!
         If invasion of mental privacy wasn't enough, the physical part comes in. You can practically never be alone! Most parents don't approve of closed doors of rooms, sitting at a cafe alone means getting weird glances, private time on trains, buses is a joke! So when? When can we just sit, with a cup of coffee, with mental and physical privacy and just be able to breathe?

                                                              Questions, questions!

On a lighter note we clicked these pictures before catching up with an old friend over the movie  'Ishqzaade'. Diana liked it, I didn't! Rare clash of opinions! :P Have you seen it yet? Share it with us in the comments section.

Dress for yourself!

            On this sunny (HOT) day we decided to have a girls day out with some mall shopping, street shopping, long walks and loads of gossip added. It was one hell of a lovely day and obviously we had a lot to talk about. During lunch we somehow landed on the topic of dressing up. Not many women think that dressing up for a 'girls' day out is necessary. After all it's just girls right? No boy friends or crush to impress, no photographs for Facebook to be clicked, no acquaintances or for that matter no enemies who you need to show how hot you are! Only your besties who have seen you in your worst already, would be with you.
So why bother?

         But wait... I think we missed out on someone here... YOU! What about you? Don't you want to feel that surge of confidence when you know you are looking oh-so-sexy! Aren't you a good enough reason to dress up for?

       No, we aren't saying that you don't look good without amazing clothes or without make up. We aren't saying don't be comfortable in your own skin. But we are surely saying that you've got to love yourself enough to put yourself at par with the guy in your life, your peers or enemies! Why constrict your dressing self only for others, you too deserve your hot self!. 'You' are a good enough reason to dress up on the most mundane days. 
      So the next time you check yourself out at some random car's window you'll have this hot chick looking back at you! And trust us when we say that is one amazing feeling! :)

Are you the one who waits for an occasion to dress up or is everyday party time for you? Share it with us in the comments section.
