2. Dining Room Make Over!
Currently obsessed with redoing my
entire apartment but took on my dining room as a fall project. With the holidays being right around the corner, West Elm and ZGallerie will not stop emailing with me elegant decor and over-the-top hosting ideas... #homedecorgoals My tiny 700 square foot apartment does not
allow for any of these elaborate dinner tables but they’re just so gorgeous... I’m
working on recreating these for our tiny home; I’ll do a full post on the update process soon. I hope to be done before Thanksgiving.
3. De-cluttering.
Previously
mentioned that my apartment is only 700 square feet. I think I’ve just been in denial that the storage place was so limited and kept forcing things to fit behind closet and cabinet
doors. I forgot about so many things we received
as wedding presents, so many things we’d purchased on our honeymoon, and so
many pairs of shoes and clothing items I owned.
They’ve been pushed to the back of my closet but really what purpose is
any of that serving me? I’m taking a small area of our apartment each weekend
and purging things into 3 categories: Donation, Toss, and Re-purpose. I initially tried to stay away from the re-purpose category but there were somethings I could not bring myself to give away due to the sentimental
value … Here are some tips to follow. http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/pro-organizer-tips-what-not-to-do-when-decluttering-your-home-168836
4. 21 Day Fix.
As you all may know I’ve gotten more than
halfway through the 21 day fix challenge before but now I’m determined to
complete it. This week I’m doing a mini
detox by cutting out bad carbs and the excess sugar I’ve been eating post
Diwali and Halloween and have started doing the workouts nightly. I will start
the 21 day fix on Sunday – I know I’m setting myself up for disaster because I already
have multiple Thanksgiving Dinners lined up :-O Wish me luck!
5. Arijit Singh.
Recently
obsessed with Arijit Singh all over again if you’ve been following my on snap chat. Our wedding song was Tum Hi Ho
but check out these songs – they’ve been on repeat on our car rides and
decluttering sessions at home. Soch na Sake, Channa Meraya, Itni Si Baat Hai, and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
6. Indian Fashion.
Sometimes I wish I could have a wedding every year (to my hubby of course) – can we take a moment to look at Manish Malhotra’s latest festive collection.
7. Speaking
of Desi Fashion –
Here are a few of my recent desi outfit of the day {OOTD} that I never got a
chance to write up a full blog post about.
It’s so much fun using statement pieces with multiple outfits.
This outfit also has a chooridaar pajami if I ever decided to not wear the skirt. Love multi-functional everything. & I ALWAYS come for cake.
This lace jacket was a part of another outfit (I designed this out of an old Sari of my moms - made into a beautiful lengha and choli with this lace jacket over) but I have not found a formal enough occasion to wear a lengha to recently and so I used the inner-shirt and pajami of another outfit... the color matched my shoes and popped against the lace jacket beautifully!
So many Indian designers are fusing traditional desi clothing with the western styles. I paired this brocade asymmetrical jacket with a lace jumpsuit (great find at Marshalls last summer!) I paired this look with my polki necklace - which is an absolute obsession of mine right now. It is the perfect statement necklace - if I could wear everyday I would. Disclaimer : statement necklaces are life especially ones this beautiful * thank you hubbs!

& That's a wrap lovelies.
