Shopping for Ethnic Wear From EthnicCrush.com

August 2, 2015

With Rakhi starts the festive season and that means, time has come to stock up on ethnic and traditional wear. I’ve been looking for a good online store to buy some kurtas and suits from and I chanced upon EthnicCrush.com, a one-stop virtual shop for showcasing the best of Indian ethnic wear. EthnicCrush offers a wide variety of sarees, kurtis, lehengas and salwar suits in cotton, silk and georgette.  Plus, they also offer world wide shipping, free shipping + COD within India and tailoring service for an extra charge.

The website is very neatly designed so it is easy to navigate. You can choose your outfits depending on the occasion, fabric and the work and they have a pretty huge selection. From daily wear to heavy party wear and wedding outfits, this store has them all. And the best part is that the prices are quite reasonable. Cotton unstitched salwar suits are available from Rs 1,099 onwards and the heavily embroidered ones in silk go upto Rs 7000. I was looking for a “not too heavy yet can be worn to a formal occasion” kind of salwar suit and finally decided on this Navy Blue Jacquard Semi Stitched Salwar Suit from their lookbook. I did not go for the stitching option and just got the material delivered.

When it comes to embroidery and Indian ethnic wear, one of my major concerns with online stores is that the real piece looks quite different sometimes. The embroidery and zardozi will look fab in the pictures but when you get it, it can sometimes be quite tacky. EthnicCrush gave me no such issues. The suit piece looks exactly like it does in the pic, the material is great and the packing was done very well too.

I am very happy with my order and I’ll surely place a few more before the festive and wedding season arrives. If you all are looking to buy good, affordable ethnic wear online, check out EthnicCrush.com.  It is a good place to shop from. They also have a Raksha Bandhan sale starting from 7th August so make sure you check that out.

P.S – The outfit was a gift from the brand for review purpose.

#AbHarWishHogiPoori with Flipkart

July 17, 2015

My fellow tech blogger Pradeep recently posted about how he wanted to make this Raksha Bandhan special by gifting his sister who loves clicking selfies, a Xolo Black smartphone. The phone looks so good and has lovely features for a very affordable price of only Rs 12,999. Pradeeep’s post reminded me of my love for smartphones and selfies and of course what comes to mind when I think of these two? Makeup, which is an integral part of clicking those beautiful selfies 😀

While Pradeep wanted something special for Raksha Bandhan, even I wanted something for the most awaited festival for us Bengalis, Durga Puja. The countdown has already started and less than 100 days are left for us to welcome Goddess Durga and her children to our homes. I don’t know how many of you have been in Kolkata during Durga Puja. If you haven’t, make sure you come atleast once to witness the extravaganza yourself. The city is at its best during those four days. There are pandals everywhere with the idols of the Goddess and her children, the city is lit up , those who stay abroad come home to be with their families, everyone looks beautiful wearing their new clothes and there is generally an atmosphere of gaiety and celebration.

During Durga Puja, everyone wants to look their best. New clothes, new makeup, new shoes, new accessories, new hair cut, a new look. Everything is centered around this festival for Bengalis. Like every year, this year I have plans as well and they involve ‘pandal hopping’ with my friends starting from the morning till night. The only problem if you are out whole day is to ensure your makeup looks fresh. I obviously cannot carry a ton of stuff around and I’ve been looking for a kit that has pretty much everything needed to ensure a quick touch up. And that kit is the Urban Decay Naked On The Run palette.

Since the time the palette came out, I’ve been wanting to get my hands on this beauty. It’s got five eye shadows, one blush, one bronzer, one mascara, one 24/7 glide on eye pencil and one lip gloss. I just need this baby in my bag and I’m sorted for the entire day! And guess what’s the best part? I’m actually going to get my wish fulfilled of owning it! I was talking to my sister-in-law the other day and I was telling her about my Durga Puja plans. She asked me what I’m getting and I said that I’ve got my eyes on the Urban Decay palette. She immediately said that it would be her Durga Puja gift to me this year :D. So yes, wishes do come true. And I hope all your wishes get fulfilled too #AbHarWishHogiPoori!

Future of Fashion in Mobile-only World

April 29, 2015

It is 2.00 a.m. and I’ve just spent nearly two hours in front of my laptop aimlessly surfing my favourite online shopping website and updating my detailed excel spread sheet of the things I want to buy (yes, I do have one and it is precious!). This was not what I was supposed to be doing by the way. Like a very good girl who always meets deadlines, I was supposed to be writing a blog post!

At 4.00 a.m. with the post having gone for a toss, I at last switch off my darling lappy and stagger to bed thinking what we would do without online shopping websites and God bless the person who came up with this concept. Can we even imagine a life without these nowadays? No right. But what if one day these websites cease to exist or as is rampant nowadays, are banned? We are told that nothing will be available online henceforth.  From buying grocery to booking tables at restaurants to shopping for clothes, shoes etc., we can only use our mobile phone. And incidentally, I am given the task of coming up with some ideas that would reinvent the future of fashion in a mobile only world (hypothetical situation but one can always imagine).

Clothes Shopping From Jabong.com

March 1, 2015

One website that I religiously check everyday is Jabong.com. I’ve lost count of the number of times that I have shopped from them and I can safely say that Jabong is currently the best online shopping website in India. The sheer size of their online store is mind boggling and these guys are getting better day by day. In case you don’t know yet, the only place you can find Dorothy Perkins, River Island and Miss Selfridge in India is Jabong. And what’s the best part? They have various discounts and offers going on every day so you pay a whole lot less. In all these years of shopping from them, I’ve never had any issue with either the customer service, the shipping, returns or refunds.
