Transform Your Bedroom Into A Peaceful Retreat

Time and time again, I have wished my bedroom could look like a hotel room with all the luxuries. Haven’t you…? In reality, not every one of us can afford a bedroom like that, but (fortunately) transforming your bedroom into a sanctuary, you could unwind in after a busy day of work, shouldn’t cost you a…

My First Visit To New York City

The iconic New York City needs no introduction, but if you are a first time traveller to the largest city in the United States, knowing your way around the city can be quite helpful. Anyone who loves exploring new cities would have NYC at the top of their list of ‘must visit destinations’. I have…

B’day Resolutions|Why Not?!

Hello lovelies 🙂 If you are following me on IG, you would have seen one of my recent posts ‘Yesterday, I turned thirty’. I have been thinking, what a difference it would or rather, it could make in our lives if we, instead of making a wish, take on a resolution on our birthday. I do…

Finding Calm In Everyday Chaos

One may instantly assume that working from home is like a walk in the park. Well, that is exactly what it is not.

Declutter & Organize Your Closet

About a month back, I was looking for something to wear for a friend’s and family dinner party, but I couldn’t find anything nice. What am I supposed to wear? I have nothing that is appropriate for the occasion…It was frustrating. Has that ever happened to you? This has been the story of my life…

How To Motivate Yourself To Work From Home

Now that I have decided to be a stay-at-home-mom (at least temporarily) I have been in search for something to keep my self occupied. I mean any mom would know that being a mom is a full-time job and it’s not like we have hours of free time but since I was able to find some help…
