Blog Birthday with a Pop of Pink!


Last week I celebrated my blog's birthday quite pompously! I blogged non-stop for four days (phew! that was a marathon..hats off to the bloggers who post daily) and then on the B-day I had a small cupcake party with my blog staff aka my photographer aka my husband! To tell you the truth, between work, house and blogging I was kinda feeling deadbeat to even dress for the evening. And so the easy answer to that was a pop of pink.
Pink blazer is such a fantastic pop of color! And a perfect compliment to it is stripes. When I think I have too much of color on my hand (or one me), I play it down with either stripes or polka-dots.
**StyleTip: A colored blazer is a go-to item for days when I feel lazy to think about putting an outfit together or matching patterns/color schemes. The blazer is especially welcome for spring days; when the temps are not-so-warm and not-so-cold – just somewhere in-between. 
We met in the town center for a quick sweet-treat which was followed by a spicy pani-puri (spicy Indian snack) hogging session at home. The cupcakes (red-velvet and devil's food) were oh-so-delectable! My staff was so happy with this treat and when I gave him a bonus with a peck on the cheek, well, I made his day :)
Enjoy the pictures from the blog's birthday revelries!
