The Wedding Season

So here is summer, the season of sunny evenings, barbecues and of course- weddings- and the perfect reason to get back into blogging. I've been out of the blogging season as of late, and there is no better time to return than now! Hopefully this season I will update the blog much more frequently, starting from today- where I am off to Pakistan Fashion Week,  held at the Kensington & Chelsea Town Hall, accompanied with my official press pass for lots of exclusives!

I have also been out and about recently, searching for outfits for upcoming weddings this season, and would love to know if any of you have purchased "made to order" outfits online. This seems to be the current trend where you can select an outfit design, enter your measurements and have the outfit to your door in the space of a few weeks! - but can shopping for Asian outfits really be done online?

Smart-Priced Loving


ASDA have released this bargain Valentines card in time for next week, and despite its super-cheap almost unreal price 7p it is proving to be quite a hit among consumers... 

So what do you think? If you received this card, would you be insulted?? -How cheap is too cheap??!!
 or would you think it was a relevant austerity measure given the current economic climate?

Amir Khan & Faryal Makhdoom








Last weekend saw the engagement ceremony of British Pakistani boxer Amir Khan, with Faryal Makhdoom. Twenty year old Faryal, a New York resident became engaged after almost six months of dating. The ceremony took place at the Reebok Stadium, the grounds of Bolton Wanderers football team, attended by 1,000 friends and family.



Faryal wore an aubergine coloured full sleeved sari, whilst Amir opted for a suit with matching tie.







Faryal and Amir with their rings, Faryal's ring reportedly cost £150,000 and is encrusted with three diamond rings. Amir was gifted a BMW 7 series from Faryal's parents.






Congratulations to Amir and Faryal, Im excited to see the wedding pictures if the lavish £150,000 engagement is anything to go by!

Tanishq Bridal Collection




This is a follow up to the previous blogpost on the Tanishq Jodhaa Akbar style. Im loving the pinky hues perfect for upcoming Spring/Summer 2012 weddings, as well as the age old moonstone detailing on the pieces, reflected in the borders of the outfit.
