The Show

Just before I moved back to Cardiff in September for Uni, I got to attend a small fashion show event in London, organised by a Nepalese event company. The event was called "The Show" and I was helping a friend of mine who was interviewing the designers and models backstage for her final year college project. It was such a great experience to meet so many new people. The young designers who were mostly students, were very talented- their designs were so impressive, I couldn't help but feel a slight twinge of envy for not being nearly half as talented. Oh well, at least I got a lot of inspiration that day.

We are game

None of us are very sporty at all but Geeta does play some volleyball and is quite good at it too (for the level she plays it at)! A few weeks ago, she participated at a local, one-day volleyball tournament so we all went along and supported her with all our might. It obviously worked because her team won the tournament!

OOTD: Summer of strawberries

There hasn't been much to do lately so I tagged along with some close relatives to visit this lovely farm near where we live - had a wonderful time picking tons of fresh strawberries and making lots of cute, furry friends. We have been blessed with so much sun recently here in the UK, I hardly ever stay in anymore. Need to make the most of this beautiful weather while it lasts.

School's out!

Went for a stroll around London recently. We are very, very poor students, you see; a stroll around London for a day is the only "holiday" that we can afford. So we nearly died of excitement when we found out there was £1 jumble sale going on at Absolute Vintage.

So fond of you

Lately we have been very lazy and haven't posted anything in a long while, even though our exams were over nearly a month ago, but now that I have moved back to Swindon for the whole of summer and all of us are in full holiday mood (not that we are going anywhere exotic or exciting), we have vowed to be more regular with our posts.

So, we know this AA top is old news already and some of you might be sick of it by now but Manju and me are so very fond of it, we had to do a little outfit post with it. Its a little late, the photos themselves aren't very recent and Manju could only find one decent picture of her but here they are..

ollah guys!!!

Okay...Sumnima’s been nagging me about not posting anything for like ages …whenever we see eachother she keeps lecturing (= torture), she even called me invisible,mysterious and what not L
So only way out is  blogging = happy sumnima = no more lectures = happy me :D !!
Here we go~

Funky tiedye shirts

(its not tutorial)
First picture: first attempt it went well.... but honestly I didn't like it. It looked like I bought it straight from Thamel. So next day more experiment (poor shirt) ... it was completely ruined!! LOL. I was so frustrated that I used all other dyes I had and the result....WALLAH~
the one on the left was my second attempt and on the right is the one from before. Yeah.. yeah.. I know it looks like a rag but few cuts here and there and the end product...
turned into a crop-top... all this was bought for under £15. The dye I used was Dylon fabric dye, 250g sachet (Tulip red, intense violet, burlesque red and dark green) and also bleach to even out the colours. It cost me £2.99 each and the shirt cost me £2.50 (primark). On the first day I collected dye which was already mixed into a bottle instead of dumping down the sink (cheapness) LOL. To my surprise it did work next day.
 ...oh yeah, don't forget to wear gloves (first one turned me into Hulk).



try it urself, its really fun  : ) 
Love Numa (who escaped torture)
