Autumn feels
As my favourite composer would say: my dear friends, I am here, with you! Sorry about the mini hiatus, guys, I was doing a bit of selfcare, and then I got really freaked out by the trolling I mentioned in the last post! For everyone who supported me through all the horribleness – thank you ♥

Sreejita in her favourite South Park jammies This post began as part of a Skype conversation when I jokingly asked my sister, Sreejita (Solo of this story) to write an article about personal style that I was supposed to do for one of the magazines I write for. She started typing into the IM window,

I wore tights in the middle of a tropical summer. It’s India, though, so I don’t believe I need to elaborate.
After the Rain
We had a teampage shoot at work today, done by yours truly, so my lovely colleague Madhurima and I went out to take a few more photos!
