NOTD! Animal Print Nailart


I always thought that an animal print nailart and rose nailart were next to impossible for me. But the only thing I had to do is look and observe the design very very carefully. I not only understood how its made but I happened to try it on my nails too. 

This happens most of the times to us in our lives. The problem is our lack of patience and short attention span. Na..... na.... this is not a philosophy class. Its just a thought. 

Do you need a simple tutorial for this? Leave a comment. 

Here is what is on my nails these days.

Review Victoria's Secret Perfume - Bombshell EDP



 I have heard many people many saying they have a signature perfume and prefer to wear only that every single day. Ofcourse, with that you know who walked into the room even if you are not watching. But personally I feel I get bored with one single perfume. I love variety in perfumes. Although most of my favourite perfume would fall under the same category. For Ex: I love perfumes that have floral , aqua and citrus nodes, very sweet perfume are a totally no no. You will always find Jasmine, Aqua , Citrus and Lavender in most of my perfumes. Too much sugar, honey are no for me. 


I had picked Victoria's Secret Perfume - Bombshell body mist since a year. I accidentally happened to pick this at a beauty store. I loved t so much that I had to get my hands on the perfume for sure. I had been searching for it everywhere, in the stores and online. But it wasn't available in India at all. I wanted to get it from abroad. I mentioned about this to my hubby a couple of times. On Valentines Day this year, he requests his friend to get it from Dubai. And here is what my Valentine Gift was. Adorable isn't it?

City Update : B Merwan &Co Breakfast, Nariman Point, Ban Ganga


We all saw it all over the papers a couple of months ago.

"B Merwan and Co, cities heritage bakery to close down end march"

"Faces management issues, B Merwan & Co Bakery plans to shut down, end march."

"City soon to lose its favourite mava cakes from BMerwan, as it shuts end March this year"

Panic struck!! How can I not go a heritage place in my very own city? This is my last chance to savor those most talked about mava cakes and bun maska. I had practically only 2 more Sundays before the end of March when the age old B Merwan & Co would up forever. If I made it there before they shout down I would be a part of history. I would live to tell the tale to generations to come about the heritage eatry in town. (Read boast ‘been there, done that!’ ) The feeling of I would not miss out on this struck me.

It was already 11.30pm Saturday night. Hubby surfing on the net. Me reading a book. I sprang from the bed and proclaimed , we going to Merwan in the morning. Hubby almost though I had a fit or something. But persuasion paid and he agreed.  

Before I begin to tell about my visit to Merwan, let me brief you about the place. This Iranian bakery and restaurant was established in 1914 by Boman Merwan. It’s a 100yrs old. Its located in GrantRoad East opposite the railway station. It open at 5.30am (yes when most of us haven’t even seen how the world looks at that hour). They serve their famous Mava cake, mava pattice(pastry puff), Bun(Round bread) maska(butter) jam, Mutton Pattice and a whole range of biscuits. They also serve omlete pav (bread), burjee (scrambled eggs) pav for breakfast, along with the famous Iranian chai(tea). The sales of theses stuff start by 5.30am and if you reach there by 8.30-9.00am you are in for disappointment of all sold out. It has about 20 table which are practically full all throughout the day and people waiting to get one at all times. The parcel counter has so full that one barely gets to see the people on the other side.

NOTD! Chaotic nails with Maybelline Color Show


I call them chaotic nails. Why? Coz I tried doing something and ended up with this chaotic look thing. 

I started with dotting my nails in flowers with a dotting tool in black color. But I donno what happened and the flowers no longer looked anything like their name. So I started dotting more for the polka dots look. I donno what happened again and I the dots started joining. Now they looked messy. So I used a red one to bring in a pop of color. And this is how it ended. Not bad I must say. My very own modern art :) 






Hope you like them. I have beginning to become a nail art addict. Thanks to @nailsartvids on Instagram. They have these short 10 sec video tutorials on quick nail art. Try it.

12 Types of Dresses you can try.



I am so glad that dresses are gaining so much popularity among women these days. Its slowly being accepted as normal in our society. In the yester years it was only a girl child till the age of about 12-13 wore frocks. wearing a dress in a social gather wasn't popular among women. There could be various reasons to it, not comfortable, fear of being starred at, fear of being labeled as "modern" or "too fast". You know what I mean right. But hail the "Modern Woman" , who care very little about these labels and stares. Here is to the lovely ladies to live life with their own terms. 


I have tried to consolidate some of the popular ones that are mostly worn these days. There are various formal dresses and wedding dresses that I have not covered in this post. Hope you like it. Do drop in a note as to what more would you like me to cover and I would do my best to share with it. 


Maxi Dress
Flowy long dress with length lower than the ankle. Usually is sleeveless and is made with bright fabric. Popular holiday, beach, summer style.

City update: New feature at MissBoPeep



I will start a new session from now on called “City Updates.” I am based in Mumbai and I can share what I come across in this big big city. Mumbai has been a happening city and there is always some action happening somewhere. Whatever I catch is what I share.

Some of you may know I am an avid traveler. Well unfortunately not international or intercity as of now but certainly intracity. I cover the length and the breath of the city almost a week. Sometimes more than once. I have also enrolled to so many of the subscription letters from various brands who keep updating me about their offers and event often. Talk about your mailbox stashed with 200 every morning. And the every loaded sms box that refuses to be empty anytime. And how can I forget the newspaper supplements that are fatter than the newspaper itself with all sort of masala and ads.

As of now I will cover Mumbai, but I feel we must not restrict to one city. We will grow gradually. 

So whatever catches my eye, I will share :)

I would cover any topic, and not confide to just cosmetics, makeup or fashion. I would love to cover many topics and I would want your help to suggest a few. The ones I can think of is ofcourse makeup, cosmetics, event, art, fun, fashion, womanhood, food, restaurants, eatery, festivals, cultural activities, new hangouts, review of the places I have visited, best deals available and so much more. To start with it would be as and when I find something interesting. Later I would aim to make it a weekly update maybe.


How do you find the idea? Do share in your thoughts on it. 

Next update coming very soon.

Kalki Koechlin's Monologue at the India Today Conclave 2014

Brilliant work!! Must watch 

Kalki Kochelin - The Bollywood actor impresses the audience at the India Today Conclave with her solo performance, her spellbinding expressions and poetic dialogues.

Girls, please take out to watch this entire video. Its not only an amazing performance by this actoress but something that we all need to and want to hear today. Reminds us and everyone around us that we are human first then women. We need to treated like one and we need to treat fellow women like that too. 

Its unfortunate that in many cases if not most , a woman is another woman's biggest  foe. We do not stand up for ourselves , forget fighting for others. We pass on what we have been told and seen. Little did we think we could stop it at us and not let it cascade beyond us. We have to be the dam that stops the flood. 

We must get so tired of this hypocrisy around us that the only way out is , stop and retaliate. 

Go for it girl!! 




Do share your thoughts on this. 

Love!

Review Maybelline LipPOLISH - Glam 7


I know ....I know.... I know..... I am soooo late at putting up this post. Almost every other blogger must have already reviewed this product ( In almost every color available) . No no I am not in competition. I just share what I love with you guys. The idea of my blog is share my idea about the product and how it looks on me and how it may help you buy the stuff for yourself. 

Anyway coming back to product. I am absolutely in loveeeeee with this lip gloss. Its one of the best I have ever used. Please ...please ..please....Don't hate me for this but I like it more than MAC Lipdazzles too. I find them too sticky for my taste. And that a total put off for me. I cant stand sticky lip glosses.
