Holi Outfits That Are Festive, Practical and Stylish

Every year, the same conversation happens. What do you wear to Holi? And every year, the answer is delivered with a dismissive wave: something old, something you do not mind ruining. We are here to respectfully, but firmly, disagree. The idea that practicality and style must part ways the moment colour enters the picture is a fashion fallacy, and one that deserves to be retired permanently. Holi is a festival of extraordinary visual energy, and what you wear into that landscape is, whether you acknowledge it or not, a statement. The silhouette, the fabric, the thought behind the outfit, all of it matters. You can be the person who shows up in a considered, festive, and genuinely stylish look and still have gulal in places you will be discovering for days. This is your guide to doing exactl...

The Holi Beauty Edit: Protecting Your Skin, Hair and Nails Before and After the Celebrations

There is something deliriously joyful about Holi, the kind of joy that exists only when colour is flying through the air and inhibition has been thoroughly abandoned. But let us be honest with ourselves, because a good beauty editor always is: those vivid gulals and water balloons are not exactly gentle on the skin, hair, and nails you have spent the better part of the year carefully tending to. Synthetic pigments, prolonged sun exposure, and hours of water play are a potent cocktail, and your complexion will remember every minute of it if you go in unprotected. This is not a case for skipping the celebrations. This is a case for being devastatingly prepared for them. Consider this your definitive pre- and post-Holi beauty bible, because looking after yourself is, and has always been, the ...

The Seasonless Wardrobe: Investment Pieces Brides Are Buying Now

The wedding itself lasts a day. The wardrobe built around it, if chosen well, can last a lifetime. There is a quiet shift happening in the way brides are approaching their trousseau. Less about accumulating and more about choosing deliberately, the focus has moved toward pieces that carry weight beyond the wedding season — garments and accessories that transition from celebration to everyday elegance without losing their relevance. Call it the seasonless wardrobe: a considered edit of investment pieces that earn their place not just in the moment, but in the years that follow. India’s textile and craft traditions make this kind of dressing remarkably possible. A hand-woven Benarasi silk, a finely embroidered shawl, a pair of uncut diamond earrings, a leather bag finished by hand — th...

The Scary Truth Behind Wedding Accidents And How to Avoid Becoming a Headline

Weddings are meant to be remembered for joy, celebration, and love. Yet in recent years, an increasing number of wedding-related accidents have made headlines for all the wrong reasons. Fires caused by decorative lighting, food poisoning at large banquets, stage collapses, celebratory firing, stampedes, and thefts are no longer rare occurrences. What is most unsettling is that many of these incidents are preventable. As weddings grow larger, more elaborate, and more experiential, safety has quietly become one of the most overlooked aspects of planning. In the pursuit of aesthetics and scale, basic protocols are often ignored until something goes wrong. The reality is simple: a wedding without adequate safety planning can quickly turn into a crisis. Where Things Often Go W...
