When I Got My Hair Chalked Pink..

Yes pink! When I first told my mom that I am gonna get my hair coloured pink she got hyper instantly! I had to calm her down with a “just kidding”. My parents literally threatened to throw me out of the house if I ever turn up at the door with pink hair. Sailor refused to hang out with the girl with pink hair. Sigh. So obviously the next best choice was a temporary colour which I somehow convinced these “boring” people in my life. Yes I am one of those people who make pinterest boards of pretty things and hair chalks were on my lust list from ever since they came out. Go search for the post “Bohemian Circus” on VNA to know how desperately I wanted these hair chalks to come in India. And that they did!

This year 2 brands in India came out with these temporary chalks for hair in a wide variety of colours: L’Oréal Professionnel and The Body Shop. TBS has priced them ridiculously at 1k while the L’Oreal chalk retails for Rs.500. Although L’Oreal in only available at salons so obviously I headed to my current favourite Geetanjali Salon in Delhi i.e the Select City Walk one. I trust the staff there. I also got my ombre hair colour retouched which I would show you once the chalk wears off. Continue Reading…

Menage A Trios, Warren Tricomi

 A day at Warren Tricomi getting Menage A Trios: Review

I make sure I keep atleast a day every week to myself..excluding the weekend ofcourse. This one day I tune out social media (which by the way is my work) and concentrate on my mental and spiritual well being..

..phhhbbbbbttt!! It basically involves grabbing a large bowl of popcorn and watching Two and a Half Men all day in my pajamas. This time I gave my polka dot pajamas a break and moved my butt to get a facial along with a manicure pedicure. I went to Warren Tricomi at The Manor in Friends Colony. As you would expect with spas, this too felt like a different world altogether as soon as I entered. You have to walk through a very beautiful garden to enter Zehen where the spa is. I wish I had taken a friend along to do an outfit shoot there, the opportunity was too good to be missed but I was alone (refer to the ME time above) and I still managed a shoot! I figured instead of an OOTD I could click some makeup shots for my reviews on VNA. I had an event to go to later on so I was carrying some makeup with me. You will see those shots on VNA soon.

Anshita and the Smoothie Factory

Smoothie Factory Delhi Review

Well I will settle for smoothie till the time I find a chocolate factory. Every time I go out, I look for a new place to eat. I guess that’s because I get bored easily. Googling reviews on Zomato is one of my favourite pass times! Ever since I heard Smoothie Factory opened a new branch closer to my place I was itching to try their smoothies and snacks atleat once. They have their main branch at Nehru Place which is quite far from my place but now they have opened in Connaught Place (right next to Cotton Emporium in Janpath) My favourite adda in CP is Dunkin Donuts because its not madly crowded like KFC and McDonalds where you have to wait in line for a seat. And I guess I have found a new adda too.

I went to Smoothie Factory recently and the first thing I ordered was a Blueberry Smoothie and a Very Berry Smoothie (yes two because I couldn’t pick just one!) and they truly have named the food joint right. Its a heaven for those looking for healthy and nutritious smoothies without compromising on the taste. Continue Reading…

Geetanjali Salon, Select City Walk

Geetanjali Salon, Delhi Review

A few months back if you had told me that I would be colouring my hair, I would have probably thought you were insane and didn’t know me much. I’ve gone to the lengths of getting hair extensions and hair threads just to put off colouring. My virgin hair was something I was proud of! But a lot changed over the past few months, I got more adventurous and experimental because honestly there is a limit to the love you can give your flat black hair. No hair braids would show up on my hair as they do on someone with highlighted hair (remember my agony when I wanted to try Elsa’s braid for the Elle Blogger Award Round 1?) Anyhoo enter L’oreal Chocolate Factory ammonia free hair colour and my hair changed..for better. And I never looked back.

I went to Geetanjali Salon when the had just opened up in Select City Walk, Saket in Delhi. They have got hair salons in Green Park, Khan Market and Vasant Kunj as well. Continue Reading…

A Day at Quan Spa, JW Marriott

Review of Quan Spa, JW Marriott, Delhi

For the longest time I resisted body massages and spas. Why? Because I am too shy. Yes its now for every one to read and laugh that a 20 something still feels odd about going to spas for they would ask her to undress! When Quan Spa called me up to ask if I would be willing to spend a weekend morning with them, I started getting goosebumps again. But since I’m in that “adventurous” phase of mine where I am changing my hair colour every 2 months, I thought why not give this a shot as well.
