Product Review-The Bodyshop Rainforest Balance Shampoo

Today im going to review The Body Shop Rainforest Balance Shampoo for Oily hair.


 I have the oiliest hair possibly in the entire world. I have tried shampoos from the dirt cheap ones to the high end ones but nothing has rescued me from the disgusting oil slick. Also because of the fact that the ends of my hair are dry i cannot use just any shampoo. Anyway, a couple of days ago as i was going through TBS store there was this shampoo that really caught my eye. It was The Body Shop Rainforest Balance Shampoo for oily hair. I was absolutely drawn by the NO SILICONES, NO PARABENS label on the bottle as we all know what a miscreant paraben is and im not so fond of silicones either. I rin back home thanking my lucky stars!!

STYLE ICONS

Fashion is something that tends to lie in the eyes of the beholder. What may seem totally Fash to one may seem totally trash to another. But there are those people who have an impeccable sense of style and with whose style sense we totally tend to agree.
Here are the three people who for me always bring it on when it comes to fashion. They have that timeless style that is not restricted by the trends or fads!!!

                                                        Esther Quek

Esther Quek is the fashion director of menswear magazine The Rake. I don't think there is anyone else in the world who pulls-off androgynous fashion with such class as her. Whether its her pixie hair-cut or her meticulously well tailored suit... each time i look at her i get tempted to shop at the menswear section.

                                                  Christine Centenera

Christine Centenera was a former fashion editor for Harper's Bazaar, Australia and currently the senior fashion editor for Vogue, Australia....well that explains the well dressed part eh..!!:p
Christine has that sophisticated look to her with a touch of street fashion. As far as my observation goes, she is predominantly dressed in black,white, grey, ...... but mind you.... its never, ever boring and is always well put together. She always adds that one piece to her attire that takes her outfit to a differently level. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HER and admit to a fashion crush on her.....

Weather calls for Leather

With the winter months slowly approaching its only wise to start loading your style arsenal for a bang-on fall season. The trend could be anything but the one item that never fails to heat up the chilly season is ......tadaaaaaaa..You guessed it right..LEATHER!!!
So the must have leather items for fall this season are.....drumrolls please......


No.1- The Leather Pants

Victoria "Posh" Beckham started this trend and after that there was no looking back. Kate Moss to Kim Kardashian have then followed suit but i like Victoria's rendition the best because she nails the look each time. I have seen her pair her leather pants with everything... from a flimsy tank to a conventional blazer..the result... POSH!!

POWER DRESSING

Dressing up for work is a daunting task for me. I hate investing my hard earned cash for "Work Clothes" since there are no cute guys at work that i can impress (ahem!!). But on a serious note, i have a close fren at work who drilled some sense into me one day and pointed out that since we spend a major part of our life Working (..urghhh!!) why not be well dressed.When you are well dressed at work, it makes you feel confident, powerful,happy and strangely enough, even your co-workers respect you more and tend to look up to you!!!

Here are some things to remember while picking up work clothes


No.1- Clean Lines!!

So many times women (as well as men )wear clothes that are ill fitting. While its tempting to grab the first thing that you can lay your hands on while you are pressed for time, nothing ruins your attire as well as your personality than ill fitting clothes, whether its baggy or too tight.

Jacket-Oscar de la Renta , Shirt- Acne , Pant- ASOS, Scarf- Mulberry, Bag-Mulberry, Shoes-Jimmy Choo 
Eyeliner- M.A.C

No.2- Find yourself a Good Tailor!!

A good tailor is Godsent. Lets face it..we ain't no Carrie Bradshaw (though we'd like to be..agree??) and neither can we afford a Diane Von Frustenburg worksuit to office everyday, atleast i cannot. That's when our knight in shining armor a.k.a The Tailor comes to the rescue. The local tailor may not be as good as the people down in Giorgio Armani but if Karma is on your side, he may do a pretty decent job!!

Product Review- The Body Shop SPICED PUMPKIN SHOWER GEL

Anybody who is close to me knows how i feel about getting up early in the morning to go to work. I have a personal best record of sleeping for 12hrs straight (..details on that later..lol!!) 
The only good part about waking up these days is my Spiced Pumpkin Shower Gel. 

I picked up this bottle while i was loitering around in the mall and boy am i glad!! The shower gel actually smells of a homemade pumpkin pie.
This is how it actually looks when you bring it home :)

Its decently Priced at Rs.340/- (the price was further reduced due to the SALE... )
