EMERALD

 Hey everyone,

Today, here on my sweet little  blog I'll be writing about the "IT" color of the year- EMERALD. I simply love this color, its deep shade is so mesmerizing. Now for those who aren't aware, its officially the pantone color of the year.

That means that this color will be in vogue irrespective of the season. One whole year for some great emerald show-off...wwoohooo....

Emerald for me though spells opulence, lavishness, richness and luxury. And this vibrant shade of green, often associated with nature and spring, signifies renewal, regrowth and health.

So go get your wardrobe and home filled with the emerald hues. And ladies, its time to get those emerald earings you have been eyeing for long...go loosen your hubby's pockets AND AND AND no excuse shall be entertained, after all its the color of the season.

Get some emerald inspiration.

Wanderers

Hey everyone,

A few days back I showed you the tremendously growing wandering jews in our garden under the hedges (here). Now then also I told you that these can floruish in the water too.So ,I, often get a few cuttings inside to bring in the nature but also because these grow at such an amazing speed that gardener is usually cutting it once a week and I just dont want those cuttings to get wasted....So one fine day when our weird (later on that)gardener cut these, I just have to get those inside. So here they sit in a vase by the window staring the wanderers outside.

ENERGIZING WITH NEONS

Heya Everyone,
Now whoever is in touch with the fashion trends of the year 2012 and 2013, must be knowing how big the NEON trend is. Neon is everything that is fluorescent. These eye-poping fluorescent hues of rainbow are NEON.Though this trend is not to easy to incorporate in your wardrobe but it can surely be incorporated into your home/office decor. After all its all about being stylish and in vogue.

Tips:

1. Dont go overboard.
2. Play with different hues.
3. Tone down the neons with neutrals.

4. Use your DIY skill and spray paint neon colors to renew and re-energize your old stuff.

WANDERING JEW

Heyyaaa!!!
Today I am sharing the story of a plant that was propogated from a single stem and that is well flourished today and covers a significant portion of our garden under the hedges. This plant is the Wandering Jew. I am simply amazed by the growing speed of this plant. Its been only few months that we planted few of the stem cuttings under the hedges to cover the shabby looking soil and whoooaaa its already filled and how... Infact this is slowely trying to cover the grass area and so we have to get it cut on a regular basis.
And not only these flourish outdoors but when placed in the water inside the house, these still look fresh and growing after days.

Its getting super cold here in Gurgaon...and with no sun during the day we are confined to our quilts with hot coffees....its not that I am complaining or sort...but this routine is getting too monotonous and boring. So to jazz up things at my place, I redecorated and brought in a lot of greens inside the house....anywhooo the new year is here and I am all geared up with my resolutions...haha....I do make some easy ones that are sure to get completed......hehe like last year I made a resolution of completing my graduation...and I did *smiles and wink*...its a great booster and helps you complete other of your not so easy resolutions....trust me on that...and try it for your self....

The other day I clicked these pics of my parent's bedroom. I just love bamboo shoots...they are soo adaptable and easy to maintain....they also have a great feng shui relevance...and look gorgeous lending some green to your room.
