Perfect Gown For Your D-Day!
If you are a bride it is your right to outshine everyone on the big day of your life. For that, you should select your wedding dress with expertise and finesse. Saree has been the safest pick for Indian brides for decades. But now you have the freedom to wear any attire you are comfortable with on your wedding day.
Hindu brides are still following the tradition of wearing the six-yard to tie the knot. But if you are a Christian bride you can be the star of the day like a fairytale princess in your wedding gown. So if you have decided to wear a gown on your big day you need to take care of some tips before zeroing in on the dress.
You have to select a gown according to your body type. People have different body types so don’t go for a particular gown just because someone else looks good in it. Know your body, talk to an expert and then only decide your dress.
Here are some tips which could help you in finding your dream dress.
For hourglass figure
Take advantage of your proportioned curves. You can go for a mermaid or a trumpet gown which would highlight your curves.
For tall brides
You are blessed with height so you can actually go for the fairytale type ball gowns. A ball gown will have a fitted bodice with a full, bell-shaped, floor-length skirt. You can also add a long veil to your look. You will also look good in mermaid gowns because of your height. But avoid high updos because it will add more height.
For short brides
If you are short and petite empire line would help you to cover the problem areas. The waistline starts just below the bust and the rest of the dress flows down to the hem. This gown could also help to minimize large bust due to the traditionally square neckline of the dress. But avoid horizontal patterns.
For that pear-shaped body
Choose a floor-length skirt that flares out in an A from your natural waist. It would help you to cover big hips and thighs. A V neckline will also help you to balance the upper portion.
For apple shape
Your weight is mainly around the waist so choose A-line gowns which would highlight your waist. A ribbon around the waist or a corset could add the illusion of a waistline. A V-neck is also a good option.
For busty woman
A scooped neckline would take the focus away from your chest. You should avoid materials such as silk, satin, and organza. Balance your top with a full skirt.
For those box-shaped women
You should go for a dress which could create an illusion of curves. You need to add volume so look for a ball gown with a full skirt that would cling to your natural waist. It could hide your lack of curves.
Pick Matching Jewellery For Your Matching Outfit
Your bridal gown is ready and has been delivered to you, and you have found it perfectly okay. Now its turn to select and settle pieces of jewelry which will complete your bridal makeup, as well as the pieces, should be absolutely synchronized with the gown. It is a tough job indeed although there is a solution to this dilemma.
You may have some finest piece of jewellery with you for your bridal makeup. Kindly do not put all of them. More than a bride, you may look like a jewellery showcase. Pick some exclusive pieces which go with the style and elegance of your bridal dress, your makeup, as well as with your hair style, and ultimately bring completeness in your bridal makeover. For example for a chiffon based bridal gown pearl sets are a better choice than a diamond necklace. Alternatively, if your bridal dress is the belle of the ball type, it will be perfectly complimented by a diamond necklace and other diamond studded piece.
If you observe patiently you will find a colour scheme in all wedding arrangement and decoration. If you can coordinate the colours of your jewellery with this master colour scheme, it will add special glamour to your makeup scheme. The best way to match this colour scheme is to add some gemstone or colour stone in your bridal jewellery and that will make your bridal dress completely innovative and mesmerizing.
While picking the jewellery for the bridal dress, you must consider that it should complement your personality. Jewellery is meant for highlighting your presence and your aura of beauty, these dressing accessories should never overpower your beauty and usual glamour. However, you must check your comfort level before finalizing these jewellery pieces for your wedding day. Jewellery is meant for highlighting your beauty, your beauty is not the canvass for this jewellery for their business display.
Check your hairstyle
The hairstyle is a major part of bridal makeup, therefore, your pieces of jewellery should match that style as well. For example, hairstyle and earrings should be synchronized with each other. Similarly, the total bridal makeup gets completeness when every part of a bridal makeup contributes largely to complete the bridal appeal, your pieces of jewellery are no exception in this matching scheme. Browsing over fashion related websites or reading in fashion magazines is a great idea for understanding the trend although your decision is final for your special day.
Before finalizing the jewellery, take special note on your bridal gown, clutch, and footwear.
Visualize the pieces of jewellery on the bride and evaluate the presence,
If you have a preference for gemstones studded in your jewellery, you have to purchase the pieces accordingly.
Just think twice on your personal preference; whether you want an elegant piece or pieces of jewellery with the simple design: however, better than look you must check on quality also so that the quality and shine of your bridal jewellery should never be compromised.
Consult these suggestions while planning for your bridal jewellery; the right choice will make your makeover a really gorgeous one.

Ashira Shetty is a well-known face in the South Indian industry. She had acted in some big movies like Indrajith, Oru Kanniyum Moonu Kalavaanikalum, Udhayam NH4. Now, there is a rumor that she is going to essay the lead role in an upcoming movie under the direction of R. Panneerselvam.
Flowers are a quintessential part of weddings. A bouquet is an important accessory for a Christian bride. But do you know there is not just one but many types of bouquets and a bride should select the bouquet according to her body type?
Brides usually select the wedding gown with the body type in mind, but according to experts, you should apply the same logic while selecting a bridal bouquet.
But before that, we will introduce you to the types of bridal bouquets and their names and will tell you what will suit you the best.
Cascade
As the name indicates this one resembles a waterfall and creates a dramatic and over-the-top look. This waterfall of flowers is also called shower bouquet. Mostly orchids and vines are used to create a cascade bouquet. It will gracefully flow down from a bride's hands and will give the bride a traditional look.
If you are blessed with an hourglass figure then you can carry a cascade bouquet with élan. It would complement your curves perfectly. But remember to keep your gown simple no unwanted embellishments.
Round or posy
They are created mostly using a single type of flower and are also monochromatic. Roses are used to create the round shape of the bouquet.
This type of bouquets could suit both petite and full figured or apple shaped brides. Give a fuller and large round bouquet to a petite bride. But make sure that your hips are visible from both the sides. Otherwise, it will make you look large. If you are a full figured bride try to keep the size of the posy small. But at the same time, it shouldn't be too small as it can make your hips look huge.
Presentation
It is the long stemmed version of cascade bridal bouquet which lies across the arms of the bride instead of flowing down. You can carry this type of bouquet if you have a pear-shaped body. A presentation bouquet would draw others' eyes upward and thus you can tactically conceal your larger bottom portion. The presentation bouquets are also called pageant bouquets, you can guess why.
One more piece of advice for those who have a pear-shaped body - A line skirts would help you hide the lower portion perfectly.
Nosegay
They are the shorter version of a posy and a nosegay bouquet will have a mix of the variety of flowers and are held together with a ribbon.
Nosegays will have smaller stems compared to posies. So a tall bride could carry a nosegay with elegance and style. The other bouquets, especially a cascade would add more height to your frame so stay away from them and carry a nosegay to balance your frame.
Teardrop
It is more or less like a cascade, but here the shape is much defined than a cascade. Like the cascade, those with hourglass can accessorize their fishtail shape wedding gown with a teardrop bouquet. It will also suit brides who are short and belongs to the petit group. The teardrop will create an illusion of height.
Pomander
If you wish to carry a simple bouquet then you can opt for a pomander. It is simple and classy at the same time. The flowers are arranged in a round shape like in a posy but a looped ribbon would hold the flowers together and the bride can hang it from her wrist. It is also called a kissing ball.
A pomander will suit all body shapes and any bride can easily carry it with style.

She also revealed the groom and he is none other than former India cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin’s son, Asad. While Azharuddin was recently elected as the president of the Hyderabad Cricket Association, his son has been playing for Goa in the domestic tournaments. On the other hand, Anam Mirza is a fashion stylist.
Asaduddin made his first-class debut last season during the Ranji Trophy. He played only two games for Goa but failed to make it big. Even, in the three innings he played, he scored just 17 runs at an average of 5.66 and was subsequently excluded from the side. He also represented Hyderabad Cricket Association Colts XI in 2009.
However, Sania Mirza too has been off the court for quite some time now. She has recently hosted the Indian Sports Honours which, however, celebrate the outstanding sports personalities in India and their contribution to their respective sports.

A Disney-mad couple decided to add a bit of their Indian heritage to their wedding.
Varun Bhanot, 29, and Anisha Seth, 29, didn’t just opt for a Bollywood-themed wedding though; they had a Bollywood-themed wedding at Disneyland Paris, and we can’t think of any wedding that looks more magical than this one. The two are actually the very first couple to bring Indian cinema to Disneyland Paris, and they look like absolute Bollywood royalty right in the middle of one of the happiest and most magical places on earth, a Disney park.

The London-based couple, who share a background in events organising and also run a charity together, spent nearly a year planning the wedding. They exchanged vows in a midnight ceremony outside the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle castle, cementing their civil union, and later had another Hindu ceremony by the theme park’s lake. Mickey and Minnie even joined them on the dance floor for the couple’s first dance.
On the big day, 350 guests sat down to a banquet inspired by Aladdin, where Middle Eastern and Indian food was served. In typical Bollywood fashion, the bride wore four dresses, including a traditional white wedding gown and colourful lehengas (Indian style crop top and skirts).

Get a glowing skin!
Your wedding is fast approaching and you want to look your best on the big day, having a flawless skin will be one of your top priorities. Following a clean and healthy diet should top your list if you want to have beautiful skin.
Here are some tips for your pre-wedding body preparation.
Keep away from caffeine, sugar, dairy, and processed foods. Replace all these with a lot of vegetables which are rich in fibre because they support the skin's elasticity, have at least 3 litres of water every day.
Start your day by drinking hot water with freshly squeezed lemon juice. It helps to stimulate the digestive tract.
Practice yoga or exercise for some time to energise your body and tighten the skin.
Eat a breakfast which will keep you satisfied without weighing you down. Have a cup of green tea with it.
If you want a little snack before lunch, eat a fiber-rich fruit instead of canned snacks.
If you are in office don't sit in a place for long, take short breaks and stretch legs.
At the noon hours have a salad and balance it with a protein-rich lunch. Go for a 20-minute walk after it.
At the snack time have a vitamin-packed vegetable juice which would keep you feel full until dinner time. Have a long walk in the evening to unwind and ease all the tensions of the day.
Have a healthy dinner with full of lean protein and fresh veggies. It is better to enjoy the dinner with your family sitting around a table instead of the TV.
Make sure that you get enough sleep after a long day.
Other than the diet follow these methods to be the proud owner of that perfect skin.
To help the body rid toxins, fatigue and water retention, use a firm natural bristles brush once a day before having a shower.
Have a deep cleansing facial. It is best to get a facial two weeks prior to the wedding day to allow for pimples and toxins that are just underneath the epidermis layer to come up and clear. Apply a salt scrub a day the week before the wedding. As it would remove the dead cells from the body and increases circulation and oxygenates the blood for a super glowing skin.

In a world ruled by smartphones, it is not hard work that pays off, but smart work. This is no different in the case of relationships. We live in a virtual space which can be liked by someone, shared by other and reposted by another. We all have a life outside reality that is exclusively in social media. Whether it's Valentine's Day or Birthday, we celebrate it online. The gifts should be of online post-able standards and even at a midnight cake cutting in our bedroom, we wear new clothes. After all, it should all go online at 12!
But, though we see a life of celebrations around, the number of breakups and divorces are rising. The reasons can be as small as not wishing for the anniversary. This may sound silly to you but may be a big deal for another. To avoid such situations, here are some things that smart couples do to make their life happier and smarter.
1. Never fight online!
Do not let others know, whether you are having a bad fight or if he missed bringing your favourite pastry on your birthday. Let all your distress and arguments be offline. It is not a bad eye myth or an omen that makes your life miserable, but a third person interference. The man/ woman who needs to know the problem is beside you or in the other room. Sharing your issues online can only bring more likes, but if you do it with your partner on the face, it can bring a solution at least.
2. Spend Quality Time
Make sure you have a minimum of 30minutes to 1 hour of quality time with each other per day. If you are not getting it at home, make some smart changes in your routine. Walk together to the gym or cook your dinner together. If she is busy in the kitchen, you can sit near and have a conversation. If he is late from office and already had dinner, make a cup of coffee and give him company.
3. Go on Vacations
It doesn't matter even if it is for a day or two. Get out from your daily routine and take a small break. Spend time with your partner and family. If you cannot travel outside the city due to work, book a resort nearby and see the difference in the bond with your family. Once in a while, you can leave your kids with your family members and spend a day alone with your partner to cherish your romance.
4.'Me-Time' is a Must
Spending time with yourself is as important as spending time with your loved ones. Me-time is not only about spas and beauty treatments. Read that book you always wanted to or visit that family member of yours. Go out and watch a movie which you missed and shop for yourself as a retail therapy. Take a glass of wine and lie down on your couch and watch your favourite show. Finding and loving yourself will help you love others more.
5. No Technology Day
If likely, take a day off from technology. Put your phones on silent mode and switch off your wifi connection. Take photos of your moments, if essential but do not post it anywhere. Let these moments be saved in your heart and added to your memory timeline. If your work doesn't permit you to do so, make it 2-3 hours per month. Even the busiest person can do this if an extra effort is taken.
Let's make these simple habits a part of our life and make our life happier than before.

Don't worry these emergency tips will help you to get out if you find yourself in one such situation
Long nails are an added attraction to your beautiful fingers, but they can sometimes cause emergency situations. If one of your beautifully manicured fingernails is chipped, instead of worrying follow this instruction to fix it immediately.
Cut a piece of material out of a tea bag or handkerchief linen. The strip should be enough to cover the broken area. Apply super glue on the broken area and fix the strip of material on it using a small brush. Make sure that the tip of the material is fixed to the underside of the nail.
After the glue dries trim the surface of the nail and the strip using a buffer stone. After this procedure apply a top coat of nail polish on top of this. It will act as a layer of protection to the layer. As it dries apply your favourite nail polish on it.
If zits are your problem then there is also a solution to it.

Jewellery is an important accessory for every Indian bride. But there is a wide range of jewellery options available around us that there are lots of chances that we may pick the wrong type.
Follow these useful tips if you don't want to regret picking up the wrong piece of jewellery.
The main and foremost element to consider while shopping for anything is the budget. Consider the amount you are planning to spend on the wedding jewellery. There is no definite rule like you should buy all your wedding jewellery from a single jeweller.
Don't rush on buying jewellery, take your time and check with various sources before zeroing in on a particular jeweller. You need to have a clear idea of the kind of jewellery you are planning to pair with your wedding attire.
If you are wearing a heavy brocade saree then it will look fabulous if paired with antique temple jewellery. But the same antique pieces may not look perfect with a designer type saree. So consider your attire while deciding on ornaments.
As we said there are no rules such as you need to buy all the ornaments from the same jeweller and that too on the same day. So take time and check out all available pieces at the jewellery that will go with your wedding attire and of course budget.
There are also chances that some particular jewellers may be frisking money out of you in the name of making charges so ask around and find out the place where you don't lose much money in the name of the making charge.
Another point to consider is on deciding whether to buy an ornament with precious or semi-precious jewellery or without it. Diamonds will sparkle more when set in white gold than the yellow gold, but if you are buying a white gold diamond set then your wedding attire should have less zari work.
If your budget doesn't allow you to choose ornaments with precious stones then you can opt for semi-precious stones like amber, amethyst, quartz, azurite etc... They will sure give your ornaments a grand look but won't put a hole in your pocket like the precious stone jewellery.
Lehengas undoubtedly give the bride a royal look. It is one of the most favoured outfits of the Indian brides. Though it is more popular in the Northern part of the country as a bridal outfit, most of the Indian brides love to make at least one lehenga a part of their bridal trousseau. The brides who prefer to wear saree for the weddings usually pick the lehenga as their reception outfit.
As most of the outfits, the bridal lehengas also have been going through years of evolution and fashion updates. Over the years it has become more and more fashionable than its basic ethnic look.
Let us check some of the latest trends in the bridal lehengas.
Cut-out shoulders
The cut-out shoulder tops and blouses have become a craze among the millennial fashionistas. Then, why not we apply this trend to the bridal lehenga fashion too? Pair your heavy lehenga choli with a plain cut-out shoulder blouse or top.
Long train
You may be familiar with the long trail of a western gown, nowadays the same look is being experienced with the bridal lehengas. It will add a much elegant and royal look to the bridal lehenga. With it, you could have your gown moment without compromising on your traditional look.
Peplum blouse
It is another import to the ethnic world from the West. The peplum blouse will give your lehenga choli a much poised and graceful look. It will look great on the brides who want to attract attention to their slender waist. It is also a great way to hide the flaws of your figure. But those who have too much extra inch around their waist please stay away from it.
Anarkali lehenga
This fusion trend will give you an alluring look. To get this look right you will have to sew your embellished lehenga choli to the long flared skirt. To get a more dramatic look you could also add a transparent material to the bottom of the choli and then sew it to the skirt.
Capes
This trend has got two versions - with cape sleeves and with off-shoulder capes. As the cape itself serves as a dupatta, you don't need to use a separate dupatta with this look. Some lehengas have detachable capes which would help you to repeat the outfit at another wedding.

Weddings and jewellery have a long-standing connection in our society. There are certain types of ornaments that speak about your relationship status. Indian married women wear mangalsutra or thali (a long chain with a specific kind of pendant) around their neck to symbolise their marital status, likewise, there are many other cultures that consider a ring on the finger to represent their relationship status.
Rings or wedding bands have been in popular use for centuries. Though the wedding ring traditions have been traced its origin to the Roman culture there are reports that wedding rings were popular even in the ancient Egypt.
The never ending circular shape of the ring is believed to represent the never-ending love between the couple. A wedding ring/band is supposed to be worn on the ring finger of the left hand as the people believed that a special vein in that finger is connected directly to the heart.
Earlier, a plain gold or silver ring was used as a wedding ring, but as the years passed the wedding rings also evolved with the societies' fashion sense. Precious and semi-precious materials were also added to the gold bands.
At present, the jewellers offer a deluge of wedding ring varieties to satisfy the fashion savvy couples. But, what are the major factors you consider while you select a wedding ring? Don't forget that wedding rings are forever so select carefully. It can be said that you should give the same care and logic you apply while selecting a wedding dress.
Not all ring style would suit every finger. You could find the ring that would better suit your finger with a little guidance. Always consider the shape and length of your finger and the shape and size of the ring and the stone that adorns it before finalising your ring.
Most ring styles go perfectly with long and thin finger types. If you are blessed with long and slender fingers then you could carry any ring with bold and large stones. But the smaller stones with wider bands will make your slender rings look wider. You could wear round, cushion, and oval diamonds
If you think your fingers are too thin then select a wider or thicker band it will help to make your finger look wide.
So if you have short and thick fingers then to make it elongate and look slender select a ring with small oval stones or those with small rectangular shaped stones. And also make sure that the wedding band should be to the thinner category.
If your fingers are long but also thick then select a ring with a large oval, marquise, pear stones or round types (probably a cluster of stones) but your wedding band should not be much wide.
Select thicker bands and large stone if you want to hide certain features that you think is deforming your fingers. A ring paired with a princess or cushion-cut stone would attract the viewers’ attention to the ring other than your fingers.
For many decades red was considered as a staple colour for the brides. As years passed, due to the influences of latest fashion trends slowly other colours too found their way into the bridal attires. Nowadays not just the dark and vibrant colours but the pastels also have a great place in the bridal fashion.
If you are a soon-to-be bride who is not that keen to settle for red then this article could help you pick a great colour that suits you well. It is a must criterion while you select your bridal dress because right colour always complements your complexion.

As weddings are considered one of the most important events of a person's life, we do take umpteen considerations while selecting wedding attires, jewellery, and other accessories.
One field we don't think about much is wedding bouquet and flowers. Flowers have utmost importance in a wedding from time immemorial. Our ancestors brought flowers to their weddings as a symbol of fertility. The Romans and Greeks believed that the fragrance of the flowers would keep the evil spirits away from the couple.
In ancient times the Romans not only used the flowers, they also carried many herbs and garlic to their wedding. Instead of carrying them as a bouquet they were woven together and were worn as a hair accessory by the bride.
As the years passed the brides began to carry it as a bouquet to their wedding.
Each culture has their own way of including flowers in the wedding. Though a Hindu or a Muslim bride doesn't carry a bouquet with them, they use it as a hair accessory. Showering the couple with flowers during the ceremony is also done in order to bring good fortune to the newlyweds.
In Thailand, the bride and the groom's mothers would put flower garlands around the couple's necks to ward off any evil spirit. In many parts of India both the bride and the groom wear floral headpieces to cover their faces so they could ward off any evil eye. In many cultures exchanging floral garlands itself symbolizes entering matrimonial bliss.
During the Tudor period, English brides used to carry marigolds dipped in rosewater to the wedding. They also ate it afterward as they believed that they had aphrodisiac qualities.
The tossing of the bouquet by the bride was added to the Western wedding traditions during the Victorian period. Earlier the bride would hand over her bouquet to her maid of honour so that some of the bride's luck would pass it to her.
In olden times, both the Greek brides and the grooms would wear crowns made of orange blossoms as the flower represents purity and virginity. In Sweden and Denmark, the bride and groom will have small pockets in their wedding attires and they will be filled with herbs for good luck.
According to Victorian brides, each flower has its own meaning and importance, so they would select the flowers for their wedding bouquets according to the meaning of the flowers.
According to them, lily represents purity and sweetness, daffodil brings unrequited love and good fortune. Red rose would fill love in their lives while white rose would bring purity and innocence. Tulip represents true love and orchid is identified with love and beauty.
The intensity of the colours of the wedding bouquet also played a major role in calculating the intensity of the feelings of the bride during the Victorian period.
Most of the cultures also use flowers to decorate the venue and they are also used as centrepieces at many weddings.
The colour red has got a huge fan following among the Indian brides. Its popularity may be associated with the belief that the colour represents happiness, prosperity and energy.
It is also a colour that goes well with most of the skin shades.
If you want to bring freshness to your wedding wear then select an outfit in one of the pastel colours than the clichéd red.
Here is a compilation of the beautiful pastel bridal wear creations by five top Indian designers.

How are you both planning to manage the budget after marriage? Bank accounts, deposit details, investments, etc too can be discussed early.
When do you both want to expand your family or do you really want children. Is there any known medical condition or are you planning for adoption. Are you planning to share your parent's home or move separately? If moving, do you plan to take your parents with you? Sex is also an important factor to talk about as whether you both are ready to be in monogamy or in an open relationship.
Whether you both are working or not, household chores can be shared by both the partners either by duty or on a daily basis. If you hate cooking and can manage washing dishes, you can delegate the cooking to your partner and declare him to be the master chef and take up dishwashing or laundry chores.
If you have a dream of your own home but your partner is planning to rent out, that can be a tough decision to make. Furniture, television in bedroom or not, dishwasher or hand washing, air conditioner or cooler, 2bhk or 3 and the list of things go on and on for a couple to start the life. Your ideas should be well disclosed to avoid over expectations in the future.
You both should know any diseases you have or medications you are taking. Both of your lifestyles should be known as one cannot be a fast food fan and other a fitness freak. Medical insurances and other matters should also be revealed.

You can forget the smallest of any details on your wedding day or even the biggest thing like taking your wedding attire to the beauty parlour or carrying your wedding ring to the venue. Anything can go wrong in the hassle. But, all these can be managed with the help of others. But, there are some things you cannot take a risk on because it is all about you and your Big Day!
1. Hydrate Yourself and Eat Healthily
In the busy schedule of the wedding day, you may often forget to drink enough water. It is not only a must to stay healthy, but also fresh and beautiful. You may have those dry lips or wrinkles around the eyes if you are dehydrated. You will not feel hungry on your Big day due to the immense stress and pressure and that is perfectly normal but unhealthy. If you cannot have full meals, snack up with fruits and veggies or salads.
2. Pack your emergency make- up bag
You need an extra set of all the make-up items and cosmetics you are going to use for the wedding look for touch up. Either buy two sets of all or pack as soon as you are done with the makeup. If you are forgetful give the charge of the same to one of your bridesmaids. Carry some dry and wet tissues in the same in handy. The person who has this bag should be around you till the function gets over and you reach home. This will ensure that you have the perfect radiant look all through the day.
3. First Night Luggage and Honeymoon Luggage
You can pack the luggage for your first night and honeymoon on a separate bag. This will lessen the stress to find the clothes and accessories you purchased for the special night and your first trip together. Especially if your trip is on the next day of the wedding, you don't need to mess up. If you have separate bags, you will not have to worry about breaking the surprise, even if your hubby helps you to sort out the bags. Also, have a decent home dress for the next day morning as you won't be ready to face your hubby's family neither in your wedding dress nor your first night lingerie.
Monsoon weddings are always romantic. But the rains and the humidity during the monsoon season will not show much mercy on your skin and hair.
You need to start your beauty regimes some 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding. You need to take extra care to be a beautiful bride on the day of your monsoon wedding.
If you have oily skin the humidity would create more problems to you. Your skin will appear oilier due to more sweating.
It would create acne problems as the sweat and oily condition would attract dirt. So you need to take extra precautions. To get rid of the dirt, use good facial scrubs regularly to de-clog your skin.
Wash your face with water four or five times a day. Moisturize your skin regularly. Your skin needs moisture to appear smooth.
If you have a lot of pimples and acne scars consult a good dermatologist. Don't try to squeeze out the acnes, it will leave deep scars.
Those with oily skin could use multani mitti or fuller's earth as a face pack. You can mix it with rose water and apply this paste evenly on your face and neck. Wash it off after it dries. Multani mitti will absorb the excess oil content from the skin.
The multani mitti has got many beauty properties, it is not only a boon to those with oily skin, it w also helps to lighten the skin tone.
It also helps to diminish scars. To make the paste soak some gram lentils in milk overnight, the next day take some multani mitti and mix it with the soaked gram lentils. To this mixture add a tsp of rose water and make a paste. Apply this paste on your face and let it dry. Wash it off with water later.
An oatmeal pack is also quite useful during the monsoon days. Mix oatmeal with egg white and a spoon of curd and honey. Apply this paste on your face and neck evenly. Wash it off after 20 minutes.
Well, the wonder mud multani mitti can also be applied on hair too. IT contains many minerals that would help you to nourish your hair.

The god's own country is known for its grace and elegance. Weddings are always luxurious, grand and splendid in India. But, Kerala weddings are comparatively simple in rituals and less in time. Whether it is a Hindu wedding, Muslim Wedding or Christian wedding, the brides have regular opted choices of saree colors like red or white kasavu saree (Hindu), green (Muslim) and white (Christian). But now, we all have moved global and pastel colours and vibrant shades have taken their roles without any religious intervention. Here are some variety of saree colors that take away the eyes of the guests.
Multicolor sarees are trending for some time now. Heavy jewellery with the embroidered blouse will give the bride that grand look any bride would look for. You can also go for some artistic work in the saree to make it exclusive.
The traditional set saree or kasavu saree is white and golden border. But, the dull look may not give the bride that happiness of wedding celebrations. So, go for a white and red saree. The red pallu will have designs in golden and the red blouse to complement will complete the look. This saree has a twin look with the traditional Bengali saree.
Those who are bored with the common red color wedding saree, opt for the rani pink or orange these days. The saree will be in orange/pink colour throughout. The pallu and blouse will also be in the same color. You can add heavy embellishments in the blouse to make it look more stunning. This will make the saree traditional and contemporary at the same time.
Christian weddings used to have guests who are wearing pastel colors. But now, despite the religious sentiments, all the brides are choosing light shades like peach, lemon yellow, pista green, baby pink, mint, etc to get that elegant look. The gold jewellery should match the saree to get that perfect bridal look.
The full golden saree is trending in the wedding industry for quite some time now. The bride can choose a golden blouse or royal colors like red, green, blue or pink ones as per her choice. If contrasting, the bride will have a modern stylish look and if golden, she will look more to the antique traditional style.
You can go for double shade saree if you can carry them well. The saree will be in one color in the top part and another in the bottom. You can opt for any of those colors for the blouse or a completely contrasting color to make the look completely different and gorgeous. This will look amazing with some antique jewellery. It can have one shade as global color and the border can be contrasting too.
The Monday to Friday schedule will be always a hectic one. You will be waiting for Friday evening to compensate for the week's pressure. Planning a weekend is tiring but at the same time fun. You can recharge your batteries and get ready for the next week. Weekends are special in the lives of couples because it is the only time they can be with each other. You should make maximum use of the weekends as it can be something that you can look forward to, every week.
More than sex, you have to give each other those tight hugs and long cuddles to feel each other's presence. Make out every time possible without time frames. Let it be on the sofa, table top in the kitchen or the dining table. Set yourself free in your pyjamas, bunny slippers and popcorns and be with each other. Physical intimacy is definitely a part of a romantic relationship which is inevitable.
If you were on the couch for the whole two days last weekend with a coffee and book, make this weekend memorable by exploring the world. Long walks, cycling or drives, choose your mode of commutation and place. Say Goodbye to the monotony of routine. A swim in the lake or a walk in the park holding hands can bring back the fire in your life.
Happy couples give importance to both me time and we time. Compromising on any one can make things go wrong. Go for that parlour appointment or spa/massage with your partner. Lie on his lap to finish your favourite book. Watch your favourite web series in Netflix together. Go for movies of your choice alternatively. Cook your partner's favourite dish and order yours for home delivery.
Give a 30minutes time to each other on a Sunday night to discuss how the week went off. Discuss and share your happy and sad moments. Release your stress and concerns. This will help to reflect on the week that passed. This will allow you to understand what went wrong or what the area’s you should improve is. You can focus on your relationship last week, for more intense conversations.
If your weekend is well spent you will be a happy individual and couple who would look forward to the next week. You can plan on things to do over the week and tasks to be accomplished. Healthy couples acknowledge the realities of life, work together to reduce the stress and maximise the happiness.
Get ready for an amazing weekend folks. Start planning now!

Waist Band
Waistbands were once restricted to wedding functions. Else, they used to be the main item only in some classical dance performances. A waist chain also known as kamarband, gives perfect shape to your waistline and improves your figure while styling ethnic and traditional outfits like a saree or a lehenga.

You can style them up with any piece of clothing from your wardrobe and make a statement.
Rings
Rings have always been a part of any one's life. They become the promise accessory to the engagement ring and then a witness to the wedding vows. This mark of love is currently embellished with diamonds and solitaires. The wedding market begins with this piece of jewellery. The ring trend has never gone out of fashion and is gaining a new face and look with cocktail rings and stackable rings.

Are you ready to spice up your relationship with your partner? Every individual has personal goals, emotional goals and career goals. What about the relationship goals? Are you on the right track? Your courtship or marriage is a dynamic and evolving connection. But if you don't think proactively about what your future together should look like and how you can grow and evolve together, you may just grow apart. Relationship goals are limited to hashtags and memes on the internet. Everyone wants to work towards their relationship. But, none knows what to do. Social media has given it a new look but the real game is not understood. Anything and everything is used, reused and misused in the era of a right swipe. Most of the times, we cannot follow those unrealistic things that we find online. So, here are some achievable relationship goals that can boost your relationship.
#1 Always Prioritise
Over the years, we tend to take our partner and the relationship for granted. We do not give the time required to nurture the relationship. We give importance to everything else like career, family and what not. This year, let's promise to ourselves to give the utmost significance to our relationship and partner. A relationship is like a newborn baby. You have to feed, entertain and also give your full attention to make the baby happy.
#2 Phones can be in silent
Every day, you should have that time in your relationship where both of your phones are in silent mode. You don't need to keep scrolling while lying on your partner's lap. You have to look into each other's eyes and have quality conversations even if it is the silly talks. These gadgets have taken away our attention and love. You can even lock them up in your drawer or put them away in another room to avoid the tendency to touch.
#3 Try something new
Get out of your routine more often. You can do some activities together. Try going for trekking or some weekend trip. You can also join a gym for couple packages. Once in a while, enjoy a spa or massage. Go shopping, eat out and stay awake whole night! You will be charged up for another few days of routine. Snorkeling, sky diving, water sports, and whatnot can be in your bucket list. Even a coffee date inside your bedroom on a cold morning will do the magic.
Fashion is the most temporary matter in this world. You shut open your eyes and the trend changes. Every woman dream about having a perfect trousseau to her credit. But, it is a big confusion on what to include and exclude to be trendy, stylish and traditional at the same time. There should be items that suit every occasion like grand, casual and formal. Here is a small list of what you should not miss possessing this year.
Chokers
For the past few years, we have been keeping away from chokers. Necklaces have been the statement jewellery for every bride. Now, it is the turn of chokers to rule. A choker is that ornament that hugs your neck tightly but not uncomfortably. It snugs and sits on your neck as if it will never leave you. It can suit every occasion.
Pendants
Pendants have always been in trend, but the size varies. There has been hot huge pendants that take the whole look credit and the simple and elegant ones which makes the one who wears it look gorgeous. The pendant trend is a blend of statement pieces and delicate pieces. Some of the popular types in pendants include amulets, talismans, lockets, medallions, and of late, charms. Pendants can be the best gifts for women of all ages, if you choose the right style.
Anklets
Anklets have always been a bride’s favourite jewellery. But, whether light or heavy, it never attracted the casual lovers. But now, single leg anklets are in trend. They can be as thin as a thread or on the heaviest side. It depends on the occasion and the person who wears it. The clasping ones will take the fear away of falling off or opening up.
Bracelet
Bracelets always had to compete with the bangles to win the battle. At times, the victory favours the bangles and the bracelets will stay in the cupboard for a long time. It is a comeback time for the bracelet with statement pieces, stacks of bracelets, and charm bracelets being the trendiest in styles. The populr types of bracelets are the delicate ones and the thick ones (kadas). The best thing about the bracelet is that you can style it with every outfit whether casual, formal or traditional.
