  • {RECIPE POST} My breakfast today-- It's a cold morning and I wanted something hot and spicy. Easy veggies on toast with ginger chai hit the spot. . Toast two slices of bread until brown and crisp. Heat mustard oil in a pan. Fry cumin seeds and sliced green chillies. Throw in roughly chopped onion (1 small), capsicum (1 piece) with a pinch of salt. Fry for 3-4 minutes then add chopped tomato (2 small). Add spice powders of choice and keep stirring until onion and tomatoes are cooked and soft. Spoon this over toast. Top with some grated cheese and fresh herbs or microgreens. Eat up while it's HOT! . I love the pungent flavour of mustard oil. Feel free to use any other oil of choice. Toasts are topped with kale and clover #microgreens from @livingfood.co . This breakfast is hearty and comes together in just ten minutes. A good dose of veggies in the morning you! Save the recipe, try it and let me know how it turns out. .

  • I don't buy sarees online much because the feel and fall of the fabric is something I can never tell by looking at a picture. However, this Diwali I was browsing websites for sarees online, not being in the mood to go out and brave crowds. . This charcoal grey vintage floral linen from @ekdori was love at first sight. I bought it immediately and luckily it got delivered just on the day I wanted to wear it. Paired it with a crop top from Westside and @swarovski jewelery. I love how versatile this saree is- going from casual to dressy depending on how you choose to style it. I can see myself wearing this a lot. Some of you asked about this lipstick shade from you earlier posts - it's a matte brown from Color Bar- D Surprise 89
