Work hard… party harder
We get for you a few tips to dress-up for an after office party
Life is a party, and trust; none would want to miss it. Even if it means sitting dazed in the front of a monitor in a swanky office, just waiting for the clock to be a little generous. And the minute we find any probability with time… the stylish shrug overtakes the long tweed coat, a silk or chiffon sequenced scarf finds place around the gorgeous neckline, bright dazzling pieces position elegantly on the arm and danglers let loose on the ears. Hey, it's time to throw away the office code, and slip into a party format with slight alterations here and there. From an office cubicle to a happening lounge that too in 10
minutes, we get for you some tips.

The mall culture is in, but when it comes to a true shopping experience nothing compares to good ol’ Sector 17

But slowly catching the fancy of young and not-so-young are the malls. Well, with everything available under one roof, this sure seems to be the right place. And, with a new mall opening close to another’s heel, we wonder if we are really in for the so-called mall culture or does our good old Sector 17 still cast the magic spell.
