Trending phrases this season -Manisha Mulani You may have observed people around you using ‘much’ almost in all the sentences and however cool it may be to use these words, it becomes irritating after a point to listen to these words again and again even when there is no need of the word in the sentence. Nowadays, as fashion changes every season, phrases trending too change every season and the phrases that are trending is seen to be used by the youngsters and also adults in almost all sentences. These words are ever changing, may be this season much and such would be the top trendiest words, but words like dude and bro are the forever kinds in this world of cool phrases, it’s there since our grand dad’s times. And you know the funny part with these phrases, sometimes if seen literally have a very hilarious meaning like a girl saying a boy “Ssup bro?” and actually the girl is dating that guy which ultimately resulted in the whole phrase she just said changing their whole relationship status. The phrases may sound ‘much’ strange but ‘such’ are the phrases like the one TBT (Throwback Thursdays) or FML (Fuck my life), but when you get to know the actual meaning of it in that way, it will start making sense to you. People generally use these words without even knowing its meaning which is the saddest part, just to show that they are cool. The word swag is used by many thinking that it means the having a cool personality when actually means a piece
of curtain, there is one more such word used commonly that is ‘nigga’, the ones who use it don’t know that they sound racist on using it as it is actually a word referred to the black people. Why is it so important to use these words? Does one word define how cool or intellectual or aware you are about your surrounding? Is your peer‘s perspective so important that you don’t have the freedom of speech? Why is it so important so to prove people or to show them your superiority when it will always out pour if that’s so? Why can’t we just concentrate on ourselves and not on the world? It’s time we start thinking on these lines or it may be too late.
Flats a new muse in the land of heals By-Manisha Mulani
This season to the shock of all eyes in fashion comfort has met with style. Yes !you heard it right, this season there is a upcoming trend forecasted of flats over heels and its start has been also spotted in a very surprising destination ,the ramps of fashion week summer spring, designers have said a bye to heels and took flats as the trend to take their collection forward this season. As flat collections has come into the foreign market long back , by Jimmy Choo and some other designers using them in their runway shows instead of models wearing heels,now we have an Indianish glamorous avtar of it produced to us this season in the Indian market as a top trend by Tarun Tahiliani in his Wills Summer/ spring show.Flats give a more Indianish touch comfortable thats why I think it goes very apt with our collection too.
And I think this trend makes life of women easier as quoted by the designer. We have also seen nude colored flats as an upcoming trend which make it very handy during monsoon and it has also been seen in Pallavi Mohan’s collection. When asked about choosing the rule breaking trend ,she said that it is more comfortable,so goes with her theme of spring/summer and a free girl as she wanted to portray in her collection which is impossible to show in heels as they are more dressy.

This is not the end of he flats fever, it is becoming evident that comfort is not the enemy of fashion. Sandals or gladiators would be still understood but now just as the other fashion abroad India has also came to the terms of having sport shoes on coture like clothes.And this has been brought to us by the one and only Aneeth Arora in her spring /summer collection in neon colors that goes very well with springy season and with this it has also given a big new trend which may seem abrupt to your eyes ,of sneaker under couture. And if you want to know what it can be like as a transition the only people who can give us a practical view of it are the ones who experience it first hand and those are none other than the models, those who have been walking the ramp in the uncomfortable pin pointed heals and now with this trend got the comfort of their life of wearing flats. Most of the models when talked about it find it great as heals and if without platform too hurt a lot when they have to wait for quite a while which in those uncomfortable heals may seem as life long. Some habituated had a different opinion to it also they felt less confident in flats as heels gave them a confidence to walk properly.

The Hindustani Tinch -Kriti Khandelwal
Changes are evitable in life and in this era, the change has been observed in the way fashion trends are determined. Its not what the ramps say anymore but now it is street that is the determinant. Street style has now been given emphasis, even designers draw their inspiration for their collection from street fashion. And nowadays it has been spotted that contrast teaming is a big trend and the contrast trend which has been there for a while, has been taken to a next level. It has
been seen that the contrast trend is actually taken very far stretched, western wear and Indian traditional accessories are globe apart, but now to the shock of old school fashionistas, the trend is that they are teamed together. People wear totally westernised clothes and team it with big long earrings or neck pieces which totally have a Indianish look to them, basically 12
mixing both thecultures. The best part of this trend is that it can be carried in all paths of life, be it college or office or party anywhere just do it and you ready for any wave to come. And this is not the end there is one more benefit to it, this trend has the power to make basic clothes also as dressy as desired. So if you are broke even and have no money to shop but in a desperate need, this trend will play as a saviour for you. All the budding fashionistas reading this, above is a tiny tricky tip for you to save the hours of repent in front of the wardrobe of not shopping during sales, make it worth because you are worth a lot of it.

Girls, take a style que from your brothers and get ready to rock the season’s hottest trend in denims- boyfriend jeans! After seasons and seasons of skinny jeans, it’s time for you to swap them for an oversized distressed pair of denims that will give a more versatile and a different look. The cool, comfy and relaxed borrowed-from-the-boys favourite, pairs effortlessly with cute tops, feminine heels and girly accessories, making it a must-have for the fall. Not sure how to nail the baggy jeans look? Check out these too cool ways to style them for that perfect look.
Everyday Essentials
Office Jean-ius
After Dark
These denims have quite a tomboy appeal. Roll up the cuffs to balance out the baggy proportions. Pair them up with your favourite sweatshirt and sneakers for a cute look. If you wish to avoid the tomboyish look swap the sneakers with boots. Or you can simply toss on a white tee with rad accessories like bright coloured sandals and a statement neckpiece for that everyday casual appeal.
A basic structured blazer can dress up almost anything- especially a broke-in denim. Throw one with your menswear-inspired jeans with a tucked in top; add some glam accessories and ladylike heels for a sophisticated work look with major street creditability.
Give off a feminine vibe to your outfit by teaming up your distressed denims with a girly top and pumps. You can try a bolder sequins piece or a shimmery top in black or gold shades, with red lipstick and showstopper accessories. Voilà! You are good to go.

-Kriti Khandelwal
Modern Short Sides And Back
A very modern and versatile haircut which can be worn in a number of ways, this hairstyle has a buzz cut at back and sides with a sharp blunt finish. The top hair is usually point cut to accentuate texture and movement. You can even freehand colour the top hair to emphasize texture, which is clearly the focus in this cut.

The Dramatic Blunt Cut
While the sides and back are given quite a blunt cut, the top is left thick and chunky with a quite hight crown are, creating almost a solid block effect. Depending on the kind of look you want you can either keep your hair to one side or just comb 19

A Small Talk With The Murder Girl Aditi Rao Hyadri By Manisha Mulani Aditi Rao Hyadri who started from a small role in the movie Delhi 6 has travelled a long way from that. The dainty yet maidenly actress has managed with all the characters she has potrayed in her movies put an impactful impression on all.This Wills summer spring 2015 she walked for Payal Singhal’s collection, there we got to freeze her for some moments of worth while talk. Manisha Mulani(MM:How do you feel wearing Payal Singhal’s show stopper outfit Aditi Rao Hyadri(ARH):I have always been a fan of Payal and that sounds like a very boring thing to say but its true because it is the second time I am walking for her, I really like what Payal does because a lot of people have nowadays started using actor showstoppers when they don’t even vibe to their collection whereas Payal calls me only when she thinks that it suits me or is for me and i think it makes so much sense because as actor you have a particular personality ,particular inherent and we are not models so if you have clothes that match that you bring it out better. It is very lovely to walk for people who understand you so it is like a mutual understanding, it’s a perfect team I am investing in and she is investing in me. MM:So how do you think this outfit reflects you? ARH:I think her clothes for me are a perfect balance that very feminine, alluring kind of quality but at the same it also has a young Coho, slightly dressed down relaxed, so you have silhouettes are very traditional but she puts them in a way lot of young people can wear them and it’s fun to wear them, they don’t seem to be very over bearing and that for me her specialty. And for me she picks these particularly old world, feminine gowns even the last time I wore a Sharara and this time I have worn this lovely war princess like lehanga,I love it.

“I’ve actually worked very hard this year. I’m doing a film of Vidhu Vinod Chopra With Farhan Akhtar and Amitabh Sir which I’m looking forward to.”
MM:Which all events have you worn Payal Singhal’s clothes? ARH: Too many but if I have to name, I wore an amazing gown in IAFA. MM:And as a whole what is your personal preference Indian or Gowns? ARH:For every Indian girl it would be a mix, at least for me I love Indian gowns but at the same time in my normal life I roam around in a ganji and shorts, though I wish I was born in an era when I could have wore these lehangas everyday. MM: So what are your comfort clothes? ARH: I think for me comfort clothing would be shorts and a ganji and ripped jeans. MM:What are your future plans? ARH:I’ve actually worked very hard this year. I have a done a film named ‘Budhu Rangella’ which is being made by the director of ‘Jolly LLB’ ,who has won a National award so again a superb director and wonderful script writer and I have also finished a film called ‘The Legend Of Michael Mishra’ which is a quirky, romantic comedy, it’s kind of fun and pretty hatke!Then I’m doing Sudhir Mishra’s Devdas where I’m playing modern Chandramukhi and also I’m doing a film of Vidhu Vinod

An exclusive conversation with designer-SAMANT CHAUHAN by-#vidhiBhasin This season whites and nudes teamed up with reds oranges and cooper took us on a dreamy journey. Young, versatile and intelligent SAMANT CHAUHAN, specifically known for his handlooms and hand-woven materials made from eco friendly processes continue to expand his fan following by his pristine, exquisite and mind boggling collection which he showcased at Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week Summer Spring’15. He left the spectators gasping for more.In addition to this Mr. Samant Chauhan introduced colored embroidery to his garments this season; every single garment was a masterpiece in itself.
Designer SAMANT CHAUHAN an alumnus of NIFT, Delhi has not only travelled the world but has a very adventurous journey to boast upon. He also won a bagful of prestigious awards starting with his first award winning show at Singapore fashion week’05 in 2007 and then participated in London fashion week and not to forget the classic collection he showcased at Carousel Du Louvre, Paris. After getting immense appreciation along with loads of fans for his amazing and outstanding work, he entered into Indian market in a royal, grand and the most elegant way possible by launching his mesmerizing RAJPUTANA collection. He launched this collection three years ago. He elaborated, “Draped in rich chanderi with velvet and brocade borders, each piece has elaborate embroideries of dabka, nakshi and fine zari just like the Victorian way. Along with those, each piece is very carefully crafted giving it finishing touches of tassels especially designed for it, giving the much sought after Rajputana embrace”
29
All the garments be it daily wear, semi formals or the heavy lehengas were adorned with zari, dabka, zardosi and nakshi, were a treat to the eyes. The theme for his collection was to bring about the purity, freshness and serenity of the soul. It was entirely different from his earlier collection which were very male oriented and revolved around Rajputana bikers unlike his Spring Summer’15 collection which was “ultra feminine” as he said.
Romance seemed to be like every where n his collection and the power of love gave garments a magical aura. The cherry on the cake at this magnificent show was his pristine and exquisite shows topper outfit which stole away hundreds of hearts. In an exclusive conversation with the man himself he elaborated which fascinated me even further was the fact that the shows topper outfit was made out of recycled fabric which was left over while making the other garments of the entire collection. The bows on the dress had been separately cut, pressed and then hand tucked to the piece. In addition to it, the size of the bows increased as we reached the hemline of the dress. I was also amazed to know that the dress took one and half month to look what it did like and now it was every bit worth the time. Designer SAMANT CHAUHAN is a warm hearted person; it was a pleasure to have a conversation with a personality like him. On being asked what was the best compliment that he ever received for his collection he hesitantly answered “the best compliment, amm…. yes a very old friend from abroad with whom I am not in talking terms with called me after ages to congratulate me for my collection, so yes that was the best compliment ever.” Don’t worry all the young and upcoming designer out there, here is a tip for you from the man himself “believe in yourself, do something new, don’t do what people are doing or what people are selling, reinvent yourself and especially you should have your own style.
Don’t follow any fashion forecast or any designer to create a look which is different and noticeable.

Fuller’s earth (multani mitti) or Bengal gram flour (besan) is also an ideal option in place of turmeric in yogurt. Also make sure to add only a pinch of turmeric or else you will end up having a yellow face rather than a glowing one.
Potato Juice Potato juice is an effective home remedy for detanning. Apply a mixture of 1 tsp of lemon juice and 1 tsp of potato juice. Or you can slice potatoes and place it on your face, feet, hand and other areas. Potatoes have natural bleaching properties. They help to reduce tan and other dark marks and patches on the skin. Lemon crush Lemon is rich in Vitamin C. Vitamin C not only helps to get rid of a tan but also lightens the toughest dark spots on the face. Take a lemon, cut it into half and apply some fresh lemon juice directly on the skin and leave it to dry, and then wash with cold water. Lemon and glycerin solution too is very helpful to lighten the skin. Prepare a mixture by mixing equal amounts of glycerin and lemon juice and apply on your skin. This mixture can also be stored in a cool place for later or several uses. Tomato treat Tomatoes are a rich source of vitamin C and lycopene, which are very essential for a naturally flawless and glowing skin. They help in detanning. They also help in reducing irritation and redness which is caused by sunburns. Make a paste of oatmeal with tomato juice and apply on your face and wash it off with cold water once it dries.
Aloe Vera Madness Aloe Vera is said to be a miracle plant. It is used in many cosmetics as a moisturizing agent. Mix the aloe vera gel with a few drops of lemon juice and make a paste. Apply it on your tanned skin and leave for 15 minutes to dry, wash with warm water. It helps to detan, moisturize and reduces sunburn and dryness. I hope these remedies are very useful for you and I wish that you can enjoy the summer like noone could and enjoy your favorite frappuccino with your favorite people while getting sun kissed.

By-Manisha Mulani
Yes it is that time of the year ,when all the men have to put the razors in a safe and lock it! It is ‘Movember’, the month of the year which is popularly dedicated to the cancer patients and what the men have to do is just not shave this month and let their beauty increase. It was there last year and is participated this year too and the following has not lessened at all, on the other hand it has increased. Many don’t know the meaning of the faces with extra hair around , they just know that November is the month where you don’t shave but to their surprise, it for a great cause, it is started by an organisation for awareness of men cancer after breast cancer awareness campaigns making them feel alienated and also for men’s health . While some men may let it grow as the natural beauty sways, while the others may style the moustache and beard and have it set the desired way, trying to give the wild a neater look. As Movember rolls men that participate do have fun alongside raise money proving the rea son of their participation year by year. And it is important too for humanity sake, that we sup port this herd for their cause. And the ladies who feel they don’t get a say in this great cause, for get the most important job of boosting their men to participate in the awareness of Movember objectives. Nowadays the following has increased so much so, that you may find almost every men around you not shaving for the cause and publicising i t on their social fronts too. Is it because of the cause or some other reasons? There are still people alive who feel for the cause and participate for the same, yet there are people who do it to prove a point to theirpeer , also some because of herd mentality and also there are men who showcase as if they are participating for the reason that beards have now became a hot quotient and is big booming men’s fashion trend. So for whatever reason may your participation be, It should not stop the torch of fire carrying the awareness for humanity light down but go on with full fire.

Snapchat Stories By-Manisha Mulani
The other day I saw four friends fighting in a friendly way for the piece of cake, one of hem had brought in her Tiffin and then what happened was really hilarious and surprising, the girls who were not giving the Tiffin to one another and snatching it from each other, stopped and they gave it to a friend who said she wanted to snapchat it. After whatsapp breaking a lot of relationships with its inventions of last seen and the blue ticks, I think snapchat is the culprit for failing many students. Nowadays the snapchat has increased to heights that everyone around is snap chatting small things and it’s kind of became mandatory. For them who don’t know about this application, snap chat is an application where you add friends from their snap chat ids or phone numbers and click a snap from it and you can instantly send it to them, also add text onto it and the best part of snapchat, which has also now lead to people having liberty to send weird pictures is that one can’t save the picture what other sends unless one takes a screen shot .Also one more feature of snachat that adds to its pleasure is that unlike other social networking sites here when you post a story that is a picture for all the contacts ,you also can see who all viewed them and who took a screen shot of the same informing facts like who all stalk your snapchats. The addiction is increasing day by day, you can get to know about the minuets details in a person’s life like who he/she is close too through her snapchat best friends displayed on who he/she snapchats more and other varied things .I have this friend who climbed on the desk for the yellow light on the ceiling, to ultimately have a nice snapchat for sending it to her friend after the class. This story may have been convincing to prove the height of snapchat addiction. Although snapchat is fun and a great time pass when you are bored ,it is the addition to the list of technological elements that have made people so busy in their phones that even if they meet it’s the selfies you click to post making the world a place where real conversations are lost
