Outfit of the week

Looking for this week’s outfit inspiration? We’ve got the perfect outfit to make your week look as bright as the sun. This ensemble will make you look nothing less than Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City walking down the streets of Manhattan on a hot summer day. Beat the scrunching heat with a pair of wide legged printed pants and team it with a crop top for an effortlessly chic look. Shade yourself from the sun with a hat and sunnies and keep the makeup natural, as sometimes the makeup tends to shift or get washed out because of the heat. For footwear, we suggest that you go for open/peep-toe pumps because they really complement wide legged pants. You can work this outfit from a sunny day to a glamorous night out by adding a chunky neckpiece or a body chain. Get this outfit and glam up the streets just like these celebs spotted donning similar outfits!

Astonishing the world with her beauty: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Cannes 2015

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has always stunned everybody around the globe with her beauty. As her style has evolved through the years she certainly has everyone’s eye over her wherever she goes. From her first appearance in a yellow saree and her chunky jewellery at Cannes in 2002, to this year’s stunning Elie Saab gown, she has glammed the red carpet every year. Check out the timeless beauty’s best looks from Cannes 2015.

The actress took over the red carpet and left everybody stupefied in a strapless monochrome Ralph and Russo gown on 20^th May at the 68th annual Cannes Film Festival. We absolutely loved the ruffled skirt of the gown. The actress chose to keep her look simple with neutral make-up paired with diamond accessories and metallic heels to compliment the dramatic gown.

On 19^th May Aishwarya Rai Bachchan left everyone speechless in a Bordeaux Oscar de la Renta Fall 2015 gown for the Jazbaa photocall. The actress kept her look minimum with slightly winged eyeliner and softly waved hair. We must say that her oxblood red lip colour was the talk of the town!

Masaan’s premier staring Richa Chadda at Cannes receives a 5 minutes long standing ovation!

Actress Richa Chadha was left teary eyed when her film Masaan which was premiered at the Cannes International Film Festival received a five minutes long standing ovation. Richa Chadha who made her debut in 2013 Anurag Kashyap’s Gangs of Wasseypur is the lead actress in the movie. Masaan is an Indo-French co-production produced by Manish Mundra and is one of the only two Indie movies that have been screened at Cannes this year, the other being Chauthi Koot a Punjabi film. Based on a true story, the film portrays four lives that intersect along the Ganges; a lower-caste boy in hopeless love, a daughter ridden with the guilt of a sexual encounter ending in a tragedy, a helpless father with a fading morality and a spirited child yearning for a family, all longing to escape the moral constructs of a small-town. Take a look at the trailer to know more about Masaan.

19 things women do that men have absolutely no idea about

The only one thing Titanic taught us is that “a woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets” and we couldn’t agree more. For all those men who think they’ve figured everything about women, wait until you read this. Here are 19 lesser known things about women that men probably, actually we are quite sure, don’t know.

1) Women change clothes in front of their girl-friends without blinking twice.

Source

2) We sometimes (okay most of the times) pee with the door open, of course when there is no one around.

Source

3) We have all burnt ourselves many times while straightening or curling our hair.

Source

4) We don’t wax our legs unless it’s necessary, during winters.

Source

5) Women tend to enjoy misery. Yes we do cry for no reason at times like omg this burger is so yummy *tears roll down*

Source

6) Dance in the shower on our favourite music on good days, maybe in front of the mirror too.

Source

7) We sometimes stalk our stalker! When we are bored, what’s the harm?

Source

8) Women pull their boobs up when no one’s watching (Sssshhhhhh).

Source

9) Never share make-up! NEVER

Source

10) We hand wash our essentials! Hand wash, with cold water and air dry. That sh*t is expensive.

Source

11) We stab ourselves in the eye while applying mascara with the mascara wand.

Source

12) Check if anything is stuck in our teeth every few hours.

Source

13) When at a girl-friend’s place, we check out all the stuff kept in their washroom.

Source

14) Curse our better halves in front of our girl-friends when the significant other is not around, but we still love you.

Source

15) Sometimes end up kissing a girl under the influence of alcohol. Lots of alcohol.

Source

16) Wear the same bra for a couple of days and no it doesn’t stink!

Source

17) Secretly crush on Gerard Butler’s character from P.S I Love You, everyday!

Source

18) Before going out for some party or any major event, we calculate the time we would take to get ready/ dressed.

Source

19) If it wasn’t for the death stares from people around, we are capable of clicking a selfie almost every one second.

Here’s he doing a small roundup of Game of Thrones for all of us. And just BTW, this is only a teaser.

Your ultimate guide to surviving a zombie apocalypse!

If there’s ever a zombie outbreak while you’re still alive, here’s everything you need to learn! These easy steps will most likely decrease your chances of turning into one. Take a look.

1. Get as far away as you can from crowded areas!

Fewer crowds lead to lesser chances of you getting into a splatter with the un-dead.

2. Wear helmets!

Remember one thing – zombies go for the brains (or so we’ve heard). So be sure to wear a helmet because isn’t it more fun to delay the process of you turning into a zombie? And if they do manage to lay a scratch on you sit back and relax because that virus travels with the speed of light, unless you are ready to chop the infected part off your body.

3. Stock up!

Any remote sign of an apocalypse coming your way, run to your nearest store and gather up supplies for at least 90 days. Believe us; you wouldn’t want to be under house arrest for an indefinite period using old clothes in place of toilet paper.

4. Invest in arms and ammunition

Nobody cares if you’ve ever touched a weapon or have even killed a mosquito before! Let’s just say it’s going be the need of the hour/days/weeks or even months for you. Buy/beg/borrow/steal necessary weapons for your survival and remember – Always aim for their heads while shooting! That’s how you kill a zombie (never seen The Walking Dead ?).

5. First aid

Like every other apocalypse, first aid is very very important for this one too! Gather medical supplies as much as you can before it’s too late! How to cut open a human being and sew him back impeccably is something you need to learn. Watch YouTube videos if it helps (we don’t have the courage to check if they exist but please knock yourselves out).

6. Send signals to find other survivors

It’s always better to have more people around you at the time of the apocalypse. Every extra hand you can find to fight with the un-dead will be extremely resourceful. Maybe try looking for fireworks or radio signal to intimate other survivors in the vicinity? If your phones/phone apps work during the apocalypse, feel free to send blasts on social media networks too. Who knows they might come in with more supplies and some alcohol!

7. Be quiet, less noisy and smell less like a human being

The human smell and noise is what attracts zombies the most. Be very vigilant and try not to …erm…smell like a human! Chances are they wouldn’t even notice that you’re around them! Cover yourself in leftover water from the trash bins if you want to distinguish yourself from the other human beings who would be busy smearing perfumes all over them.

There! Now you’ve been zombie-proofed! You may thank us in the comments section below!
