Quan Spa is one of Mumbai's most well known spas set on a sprawling 10,000 sq ft area inside JW Mariott Hotel Mumbai. I love my regular spa and facial regimen and this was the first time I visited Quan for a treatment. Here's a quick review ( Image source ) Where: JW Marioot Juhu Tara Road, Mumbai The Spa: Located inside one of Mumbai's finest hotels in Juhu, Quan Spa is one of the oldest luxury spas of Mumbai and has quite a name in the Mumbai Spa industry. They offer everything from massages, facials to Ayurvedic and water treatments. The spa has a very impressive lobby with a water wall installation by artist Sunil Padwal, immediately giving you a feeling of calm and tranquil. The spa speaks of luxury that is one of the important factors for me when choosing a spa{it gives me an assurance of product quality and hygiene}. Service: I am a complete spa junkie. This was my first time at the Quan Spa but I was not really impressed with their serv

River Island Jacket, 7 For All Mankind Jeans and Charles and Keith Shoes I think dressing up for work gets you in a rut without even realising it. Especially when you work in a more professional environment like finance, you get too comfortable in the same old same old white shirts, striped shirts and sometimes the good old checks, more often than not, paired with a pair of black trousers {its fail safe}. But then you wake up one day and almost feel like you are in a school wearing the same uniform everyday and losing your personality at work, because you look, well, boring. Its like you're almost trying too hard {to look the part}. I often get in that coccon or rut if you like to call that, and then every once in a while I get the wake up call. So on one of the Fridays when we had plans to leave early from the office for a drive and dinner later, it suddenly dawned on me that I can't be going out like my usual self at work. Yet I can't carry extra pair t

(Spotted a peacock when visiting Hot Pink Store in Jaipur) Stella McCartney Bag, Cotton On skirt, Topshop Tee, Miu Miu Sunglasses Jaipur is one of the most beautiful cities bustling with history and art. I've been to Jaipur myriad times and have stayed in some of the best hotels of the city including the Rambagh Palace and ITC Rajputana, Sheraton but never got a chance to stay at the Fairmont Hotel since it is in the outskirts of the city. During my last visit to Jaipur we finally decided to stay at the Fairmont considering we were looking to relax and enjoy with no shopping or meetings planned!! And must I tell you, the hotel was an absolute delight whether it was the interiors, opulence, service or food {I only managed to have breakfast}. Here's a review of Fairmont Jaipur: Ideal for: Romantic getaway, pampering, opulent luxury, perfect for whenever you need some time off for yourself What: The Fairmont Hotel, Jaipu

I just realised I really hadn't done the much deserved post on this little gem I discovered on one of my (not so recent) trips to Singapore. While you definitely need some high street brands to get your fashion dose, the wardrobe isn't really complete without some amazing designers and stand out styles; which is the reason I always make it a point to get out of the malls and find local designers or stores that have bespoke designers or stock from relatively unknown or not so ubiquitous talented designers and upcoming labels. nana & bird is a charming well hidden quaint fashion and accessories store in Singapore that stocks well curated designs of independent emerging designers and labels from around the world. The brand was initially launched as a pop-up store {in Shanghai and Singapore} that eventually graduated to a multi-designer store retaining its charm and well-curated selection. I visited nana and bird on my last day in Singapore, as

Every year has its ups and downs, but  2014 brings in the memories of amazing moments, great learnings and fresh beginnings. It was a year that I learnt to become stronger but  not without being empathetic, it was a year that reminded me that every person has a positive side and thats where our focus should be else no relationship can flourish, it was a year that's still teaching me to forgive and forget. 2014 was a year of many new beginnings and the year where I took extra steps to become a better me. I am sure 2015 is going to be another wonderful year for you and me!!  Here's a collage from my Instagram moments from 2014 and the recent indulgence from 2015. Follow me on instagram: @beautifyflr

I've stayed in a couple of heritage properties in Rajasthan and loved those beautiful hotels with their excellent service. A piece of pure luxury, each of those hotels were amazing - the royal themed decor, beautiful hand carved furniture with accents of gold and a nice blend of old and new. So when I got a chance to visit the Ahilya Fort Hotel in Maheshwar, I was quite excited. Tucked on the bank of Narmada river, perched up on a hill and overlooking the famous Ghats of Maheshwar, the Ahilya Fort Hotel was quite intriguing from the outside. With only 13 rooms, this 18th century fort hotel is quite a hush hush place, and is only accessible to the hotel guests aka not open for visitors. The moment we entered the fort  hotel, we were transported to a completely different era. Whitewashed walls, cobbled floors, a open courtyard in the center, the foyer walls clad with pictures of royalty, tranquil inner courtyards with plantations everywhere - all in all an enchanting place main
