On Being Creative…

Events & Experiences

Today it’s been a beautiful weather here in my part of the world, it is true that weather can serve as a powerful element in your writing; it can be the atmospheric backdrop that gives a stretch of dialogue that extra flavor. I’ve been busy lately putting together two exhibitions and visiting local art clubs or street markets where you see artists with good work on sale.

As a possible avocation, I reckon I am doing well and I think I may feature some of the artist’s work once in a while. There are so many gifted talented people out there and I love discovering new ones all the time.  It’s the same kind of involvement and it’s like moving from an intimate to a more exposed space.

I don’t collect art for the sake of collecting- I usually buy if I get to know the artist. One of my main inspirations for writing blogs and collecting art has been to explore the inner lives of high ability creative people, to learn more about how they realize their talents in multiple forms and areas of creative expression. The story and philosophy behind their work is what speaks to me.

Most of us have no idea of our real creative height. We are much more gifted than we know. Packed full of insights and resources for the creative life, these exhibitions and social events offer me new ways to thrive as a creative person.

Bottled-Up-Happiness!!

Events & Experiences

10268421_10203750037580238_1581768733978896177_nSummer is creeping up fast here in New Delhi! Summer is all about florals and fruity fragrances. Its the perfect time to get yourself a brand new perfume that smells every bit of summer! I am falling in love with this refreshing summer scent of Heat Rush (a gift from a fren). It is less fruity and feminine than some scents of summer. ❤ This divine Perfume Fragrance, Shower Gel and Body Cream smells just like bottled up happiness.

It’s amazing how much a new scent can change your outlook, your mood, and your style! A trip to the perfume counter can be a little intimidating – all those perfumes!– but  a little guidance goes a long way. It took me a long time to pick the perfect signature scent for myself. I recently repurchased ‘Chance’ by Chanel, I could not but mention my favorite perfume, I am now on my fifth bottle, and I have never loved it as much.chan

Perhaps I can accredit my love for this perfume to the fact that I first got it as a birthday present when i was living in Guwahati almost five years ago now. It was my first Chanel perfume experience, and I could not actually have picked better myself. I also think of this perfume as my lucky perfume.

Purchased at the airport during my trip to Mumbai two years ago!!

 

 

 

Another one of my favorites-loewe quizas pasion perfume cum deodorant. it is all about spring – it’s fresh, light, and so pretty!It’s unusual, but in a very good way… it’s sure to get you noticed. This is a classic perfume for a reason! It’s exotic yet simple, with a fresh, sweet scent.

In a word: lush. I really love this fragrance. I also adore the different shapes and sizes of these bottles. I have an entire collection of Bvlgari miniature collection perfume. If you’re indecisive, fickle about fragrances or just happen to love all of the scents in a particular collection, a miniature set is a great choice.

Minis are small, sweet and make great gifts!

 

It lends instant elegance and femininity to any vanity, and a great savior at times. It’s equally functional in its ease of portability. Popping one in a purse or stashing a few in a desk drawer at the office is a common habit for fragrance connoisseurs. I put aside a couple of them on my altar. Small sizes equate to greater purchasing power for the savvy shopper; it’s possible to purchase a handful of miniatures and still not pay even close to the price of a full size fragrance.

 

Which of these perfumes is your own favorite? Or is there another scent you’ve tried recently that I should add to my list? Let me know down below!

Embrace Being Tired

Events & Experiences

I had once heard that being tired can make one a better writer. It’s been almost a week since my last blog post, and it was time for a new one. I had another very busy and exhausting day. Okay, first I want to take a moment to confess that we do need rest. We need breaks and days off. I’ve been working 16 hours 7 days a week since the end of the first quarter, and right now all I want to do is curl up and sleep, but I had to write this article today!

Healing Crystal Balls!

I thought it would be elevating if you had a glimpse into what I’ve been up to lately. Hence, me writing this particular blog. I have been visiting exhibitions, fairs, and shows, from wholesale to shops for enhancing my knowledge of crystals.I bought new products – specifically to fill out my inventory for the occasion – I wanted to impress!

From One of the exhibitions in Malaysia!

Crystals have been adored for thousands of years for their awe-inspiring beauty and healing energies. Throughout my home I have crystals in every room to remove negative energies and cleanse the room of any unwanted vibrations which don’t serve ones highest good. It aids in bringing to my life what I choose to manifest.

I got my first crystal two years back and it was an amethyst crystal angel. I used to carry it around in my pocket, meditated with it and it felt great. I used to let it charge in the sun and in the full moonlight. I could tell I felt…different without it. It could just be a psychological thing, or maybe it really had a vibration that reacted well with mine, guess you never really can tell with these things. One day, unfortunately for no reason the crystal slipped out of my pocket and the tip broke off after which I got my second crystal and then my third and so on.

My First Crystal Angel!

So as I explore the beauty and benefits of crystals, I am looking forward to connecting and meeting people who are looking for a crystal for a particular purpose (meditation, protection, love, money, abundance, health, creativity, healing depression, weight loss etc.)

Time for a Cuppa ~ Silver Needle

Events & Experiences

After a great first day of collecting thoughts for my blog I needed a moment to calm down, relax and enjoy the evening at South City, Gurgaon. So my friend and I decided to have a little tea party at Just for Chai. This restaurant is famous for its Nice laid back homely ambiance and it provides a beautiful attraction for people.

I wanted some iced tea but I was having a hard time choosing a flavor (As they are all very tasty and there are so many to choose from!) My friend recommended Silver Needle (white tea). It was something new and different so I decided to give it a try. He sweetened it for me and it was one of the most delicious teas I’ve ever had!

The tea has a very bright yellow/green color. It’s mellow and light at first. Then comes a very refined, fresh and comfortable aftertaste.The leaves are uniquely beautiful and silver tipped exuding royalty and an exceptional soft, smooth, sweet-silky luxuriousness, delicate and refreshing infusion with a sweet, silky ending.

I would recommend you to try this flavor If you like tea and are looking to enhance the experience, or you’re still trying to figure out which leaf is right for you; I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

Thanks y’all for dropping by my blog. Any and all feedback on it is welcome. Until my next post take care everyone and come back to blog.

Smile!
