It was those tender years of my life, aged 9-10 years, when my first sense of fashion, style, tastes were developing\u2026.
\nShe was my Diva, my style icon! She was Didibhai, our eldest cousin.<\/p>\n
For a short stint, we sisters shared a common house, parted by two floors\u2026.
\nWham,MJ\u2026Imran Khan,Akram,Kapil Dev, Steffi Graff,Boris Beckar,\u2026. were the faces who welcomed me inside her room and I fancied following her style statements. I used to fly high wearing her accessories and later her clothes\u2026<\/p>\n
21 years ago she left this country following her dreams to the other part of the world.
\nAnd this year,after a gap of lonnggg 9years, she was here last week.
\nThis time, when we both met, discussed life, it was an amazing Woman to Woman connect!
\nOf late, she has been a regular follower of my saree stories. At times when she openly praises my style, fashion, I feel \u2018Top of the World\u2019 since she was the one whom I have looked upon in this field!<\/p>\n
77\/100#100sareepact is our \u2018first time saree-drape together\u2019 pose! \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42
\nMine was a gift, a veryyyy special goodbye gift by one of my closest pals ever, whom I call \u2018beloved\u2019!
\nA wonderful tussar silk; the cr\u00e8me part has a unique golden zaree work while the rest of the saree is a mix of vibrant colours creating a maze of colour composition. The saree is an apt reflection of the colourful relationships of our life!
\nA golden heavy costume jewellery, heavy ear-ring, a fancy clutch (a gift by a friend) were my fine touches.<\/p>\n
Didibhai draped her new saree, (first of her saree purchase after 21 years and I was the only one witnessing this moment), another tussar, green in colour and paired with a wonderful silk bag , chic neck-piece and bindi!
\nThe most interesting connect; both the sarees were from \u2018Adi Dhakeshwari Bastralaya\u2019 a saree shop in south Kolkata!<\/p>\n
It was a family get-together, another elder sister joined the saree brigade and loads of memories got clicked! Don\u2019t know when we will have such gathering in future. Life is unpredictable\u2026 We both believe, Life is Beautiful and also, we love to fight back all the odds.
\nThanks Didibhai for being there!
\nWhen this story will be live, we both will be located opposite of the hemispheres; but always connected with the same root and gene…
\nTake care, will be in touch!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
