Inspiring quote - Morgan Freeman in Evan Almighty

Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?

In times of doubt or vexation, I always think of this quote and it brings about strange calmness ....

Go, GET INSPIRED !!

BLINGZ



Yes, I call them Blingz and I think that name fits ...
cos they are such super cool accessories that every girl must possess in her kit!
and they are addictive ... I cudn't stop buying them.

A point of caution though... maintenance - keep them separate from each other preferably wrapped in a cloth to prevent chipping.

They are available in most retail apparel outlets, come in copper, gold, silver and other colors to name a few. Team it with similar copper/silver dangling earrings and a retro t-shirt or party dress and you are ready to
Bedazzle the world !!

Are you interested to buy this stuff?
Available : Chennai, Naidu Hall, Naihaa
Price : Rs 50-60 each

STREET WEAR - Aqua Mirror Nailpolish



Product Review
------------

So after a really long time .. I wanted to reward myself and I went into HEALTH and GLOW at Spencer Plaza in search of nailpolishes.
Now, I am not crazy about brands and I want the best value for money and of course the new releases.

Street Wear has come out with this new set of chrome collection and they have it in 4 different shades. It was love at first sight for me and I had to have the Aqua Mirror (blue in simple terms) nailpolish.

So, this one is a nice kinda chrome/metallic blue, wears easily. Goes with most clothes and looks really cool. 2 coats is advisable because I had only one on(wanted lighter hue) and in 3-4 days the single coat starts chipping.

So, reward urself - GO BUY !!

Price: Rs 100
Availability: Health and Glow, other retail outlets

Product Review - Lakme Aquashine Lip Color



Product Review
----------------------

The new Lakme Aqua shine Lip color that promises to stay all day for Rs 395
is something that I danced with joy when I bought it.
been using it for a week and although it sure doesn't last few hrs let alone whole day, is completely worth the money. I was skeptical about liquid lipstick.. being used to the traditional lipstick. But this has blown me away.
You control the level of color that you want, absolutely moisturises with a little gloss. For longer stay I combine this product with Neutrogena Lip Gloss. and this works great for me.

Go Bedazzle the world !!

Price: Rs 395

Twitter ... the modern addiction

Ok.. so am new to the blogsphere...and about a month old in Twitter.
The whole social media thing.. I used to scorn at it and wonder how if in any way these tools make a difference in people's lives...

I went from a cynic to an ardent fan to an addict !!!

It would be my duty to de-mystify the whole social media thing for all those non-addicts. I propose to do this in detailed (in my vocab simple and short) posts on how to go about setting up your account and why you need to do this.

For now it'd suffice to say that YIPPEEEEEEEE.......its my second post !!!
