Few days back I had posted the pictures of my Salsa party on this blog here. Earlier I have also posted some of my salsa pictures and videos with him.

Have you noticed we all have a particular bias/liking/disliking, towards certain product that we have grown up with. I was just reflecting on how we become particularly fond of one thing over the other and stick to it. I was making my own list of things. They are- Favorite bollywood fashion blog - highheelconfidential I prefer this to any other bollywood fashion blogs like- Bollywoodstylediaries  Reason- High heel has more original content, better (similar to mine) judgements about who looks good or bad. They love traditional saris as much as I do. Favorite newspaper- Indian Express, The Hindu, Times of India Do not like- Hindustan Times Favorite Magazin e- Vogue, Femina, India Today, Wedding Affaire Coke or Pepsi - Personally, I do not drink/recommend either. But still if I have to choose, it will be Coke. Son says -Thumbs Up is the best. Favorite Attire- Sari, dresses, skirts. Do not like much of- Jeans, shorts, hot pants. Favorite piece of jewelry- Rings, brac...

If you have been reading my blog for sometime now, you know my love for classic, traditional, rich, hand woven Sari, sans any embroidery or gimmicks. Just spotted this lovely Sari that I quite fell in love with and thought that I must showcase on my blog.

Low Waist Jeans. It was hilarious when I heard a guy saying that a girl resembles " Piggy Bank " in low waist jeans. It took me a while to understand the analogy. Destressed Jeans Why do people wear torn clothes? Why? Under wears or Bras showing from under. Under wear is called so for some reason. Why do people show/flaunt it? It is a disgusting sight. Some girls wear transparent tops and some coloured bras under. It looks cheap. Even transparent straps are no good. They show. For heaven's sake, there are strapless bras available or silicon stick on pads. Get rid of bra straps from showing from underneath. It is not sexy but cheap. Even men, who show there trunks/briefs from under their Jeans, look cheap. Keep your Calvin Klein brands hidden.  Wearing such short tops that your Muffin Tops show. It is a more hilarious site to see girls pulling their short tops down. Wear a little longer top. Hide those muffin tops. Gaping B...

So this was the final day. Day of departure. End of a beautiful and relaxing holiday. Boarding a flight back from Chennai.  This is the hotel elevator. The walls of it are covered with complete leather as the hotel is owned by Hidesign- They make beautiful pure leather bags. The company started from Puducherry an Auroville. Even the back side of the bed in the rooms is pure leather. I am wearing handwoven cotton sari in my favorite color.

This was a day of splurging in shopping in Puducherry and going to various beaches. One beach was adjacent to my hotel Promenade. The hotel overlooked Bay of Bengal. We went to Serenity beach. And another one was Paradise beach where we drove to. It is on Cuddalore road. What am I wearing Dress: Derhy Bag: Chanel Glares: Dior Watch: DKNY

Next day, we left for Auroville, an international township, 14 kms away from Puducherry. It was a dream project of Mother, who wanted people of different castes, creeds and religions to stay together here.  Matri Madir Matri Mandir is the spiritual centre of Auroville. It is in a dome shape. Soil from 126 different countries was placed in a pot here. As you enter, you see vast greenery all around. I was spellbound by the majestic and magnificent beauty. It can truly be one of the wonders of the world. Beauty of Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, etc is nothing as compared to it.  Inside, there is a single beam of light that comes through and falls on the largest man made crystal donated by Zeiss, people who make spectacle lens etc. That is the only source to light up the whole thing. It passes through and reaches the bottom of the dome. There is a pin drop silence and it is said that meditating here, even for few minutes is very powerful. Everyone comes, sits quietly, meditates and...

Hotel Promenade in Puducherry is the best hotel. It is owned by Dilip Kapur, the same person who owns Hidesign. Hidesign had started from Puducherry. The owner still stays in Auroville. His daughter , Ayesha Kapur, has starred in the movie, "Black" as a child artiste. Today she is a grown up, pretty girl. This hotel has a definite stamp of Hidesign all around. It has complete leather upholstery on every chair, sofa, back side of bed, walls of elevator, table mats, menu  card etc. After a long tiring day, I changed and was relaxing in the hotel after a lavish spread of dinner that was served. There was a lavish spread of buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And now, I am scared of climbing on the weighing scales. What am I wearing Tunic/Kurti: Anita Dongre.  Paired with my dhoti pants.

The same day, I visited Sri Aurobindo Ashram and the Samadhi. Standing in front of the Ashram. This is the place where, Sri Aurobindo stayed. He retired into seclusion. He withdrew from Public work and his only contact with the outside world was Mirra Alfassa, also known as The Mother. Sri Aurobindo's Samadhi. Absolute peace and silence prevails there. Visiting the Ganesha Temple opposite the Ashram Back to my hotel. The sea facing view from my room. Having lunch with my son. What am I wearing: Kurti: Kilol Changed into loose comfy, cotton dhoti pants.
