Remember those Polaroid I-zone cameras? I found this old picture of a friend and I in high school trying on my bangles from Pakistan.

Tanishq

My mom is leaving for Pakistan next weekend, and hopefully she'll be able to get my wedding jewelry while there. I went to a few stores (locally) and the selection was a little outdated and dull. I came across Tanishq online the other day and am currently in a frenzy printing out photos for the inspiration book I'm making for my mom. My favorites are from the Wedding and Aleya Collections.

Tanishq, by the way, is the designer responsible for Aishwarya Rai's Mughal Empress jewelry in the 2008 film Jodhaa Akbar.

Nails Done, Hair Done, Everything Did

My sister sent me this picture a few days ago and I am obsessing over this model's hairstyle.

There's something very traditional but chic to it. Not to mention her tika and jhoomar (jewelry on her forehead and the side of her head) are beautiful, though I don't think I'd opt for a jhoomar. Too much hardware going on for my comfort. Her jewelry set in general is extremely heavy.

Right now it's logged as #1 for my wedding day hairstyle, jumping ahead of Kim Kardashian's beehive from the recent Critics Choice Awards.
