IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY
Flexi-ble choice
Orange, lemons, blues and pinks… spruce up your summer wardrobe this Saturday
How about some shopping this Saturday? Therapeutic and exhilarating, at the same time it can also streamline the weekdays ahead, giving you a break from the last moment confusion of what to wear for the day! The essentials to stock up for the summer remain almost constant. We did a quick survey to find out what's haute this season!
'Flexi clothing' is the buzzword. In the maddening rush of life, as we hop from one appointment to another, clothes that can change the look are in. "Multi-purpose comfortable clothes go with today's lifestyle," says Kunal
Rawal, the youngest fashion designer to debut and showcase at Lakme Fashion Week.

Face of hatred
Social networking site Facebook has hate pages and hate albums created by the users for and against people they dislike
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan seen with a supposed bump, Anna Hazare’s fight-till-death campaign, Poonam Pandey’s horrendous claims of going nude, Veena Malik and his ‘Aiiishmit’; Mahesh Bhatt’s fatherly slap and ‘take care’ treatment for Pakistani actress Meera…if anything is happening, it’s on Facebook!

Uncommon sense
Commoner’ bride Kate not uncommon among royals: Study Kate Middleton may be the first commoner in four centuries to marry a future heir to the British throne, but it is not all that uncommon for royals globally to marry outside aristocracy, says a new study.
“Barely one in four princes worldwide today marry fellow royals, reveals the study of 107 royal romances since World War II, while just one in 17 European princes do so,” says the study by social networking site Badoo.com.
“Indeed, nearly three-quarters of European princes now marry commoners, rather than royals or aristocrats,” the study says.

Love Ka The End
Ashmit Patel and Veena Malik have been in the headlines for something or the other since their association in Bigg Boss 4. Their link-up made for juicy news. But Veena’s tactics to stay in the news were not appreciated by Ashmit and therefore it is heard that the two have called it quits. The final nail in the coffin was the fact that Ashmit’s sister Ameesha Patel didn’t invite Veena when she threw a big party. A very upset Veena left the city on Friday.

Zara hatke love stories
No longer is it headlines for actors to date fellow actors. Off late, we've seen actors dating directors as well. The current brigade has realised that along with good looks, they also want intelligence. Over the years, we have seen some couples come together and form good, strong partnerships.
Jessica has the man, no dress
Singer and actress Jessica Simpson has revealed that she and fiance Eric Johnson have set a date for their wedding. "I'm still trying to figure out what to wear! I don't know if I want the big boom, or the curvy thing, but it will be something beautiful," she said."I kind of have a couple ideas in my head, and I have a date; I'm really excited!" the Style Icon of the Year said at the mag's Hot Hollywood party at LA's Eden on Tuesday. Simpson, who got engaged to former NFL player Johnson in November, said she isn't worried about slimming down before the big day.

Up Town Girl
Seasons come and seasons go…at least we get an excuse to do up our wardrobes quarterly! Summer is here and maxi dresses/town gowns have been creating waves among the fashion-conscious. This wonder ensemble is chic, feminine, comfortable, flirty, flowing, versatile, stylish and most of all it is the piece to be flaunted this summer. Yes, we are referring to the super comfortable and easy maxi dress, which is back with a vengeance this summer.
Hot destination!
Fancy some long, slit chillies cooked to creamy perfection with cheese? Or, a combination of trotter, chillies and garlic? Then Bhutan is the place you are looking for.
Someone has rightly said it is the only country in the world where chillies red and green are eaten as vegetables. And cheese too melts its way into the curries and momos of the Himalayan kingdom.
Thinley Dorji, CEO of Terma Linca Resort and Spa in Thimphu, says chillies play an important role in keeping the body warm and that is why consuming them in large amounts in daily meals is justified in Bhutan’s cold environs.
