Why You Need to Visit a Spa

Life has been getting too stressful for many people in recent years, from personal relationships becoming strained over politics to the constant news cycle that seems to be dropping new and more stressful information on us every moment of every day.  We all want to be there for each other, but people also deserve to relax.  Here are several reasons why everyone needs a good spa break; it's treat-yourself-o'clock. 

3 Easy Snacks to Make Yourself

As we rush through our busy lives, it's easy to forget to eat and take care of ourselves in the middle of the day.  Between lunch and dinner is six to seven hours, where our bodies are running through what protein and sugar we have left.  If we don't snack, we can get cranky, have headaches, and lose focus in the afternoon.  Since most of us work during this time, we can also lose our ability to be productive and help our teams.

A Walk Along The Victoria Harbour, Tsim Sha Tsui

On the occasion of my husband’s birthday (13^th Feb), he and I decided to celebrate the day by paying a visit to the newly reopened Avenue of Stars located on the Tsim Sha Tsui promenade and spend some good quality time with each other. Well, I should have titled this post as “A walk to remember” instead of “A walk along the Victoria harbour”. I know it is February, love is in the air but no, I am talking about something else, not any romantic story! To know what that is, please keep reading.

REVIEW: HOTEL ISTANA, KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA

Malaysia has been on my travel wish-list ever since I watched ‘Malaysia-Truly Asia’- tourism promotional ad on TV.

A Well Spent Evening - Gaylord Restaurant, Birthday Celebration, LOOKPOST & OOTD

Happy Valentine’s Month ladies,

Love is in the air! Hope all of you had spent a fabulous time with your loved ones on Valentine’s Day. Mine was great as my Valentine celebrates his birthday every year on 13^th Feb, so 13^th to 14^th party time, YAY 😍. In fact, the whole Valentine week has been the busiest week for me so far - parties, official work, and above all Chinese New Year special 4-days long weekend! 

I love Indian food and my quest for finding the best Indian Restaurant in Hong Kong led me to Gaylord Restaurant this time. Well, neither we had booked this restaurant exclusively for birthday nor I’ll be reviewing it in detail today. However, I would definitely cover certain points in this post to make sure you get an idea about this place as well as I shall also be sharing about how I styled myself for the dinner date - OOTD & Look Details.

MY NEW YEAR 2K18 HAUL- Skin Care, Beauty & Makeup!

Hello peeps,

Hope all of you are doing great 😊. Well, it's a long pending post but better late than never!! After a long time, hubby and I celebrated Xmas & New Year with our families in India and enjoyed the festivals to the fullest. New Year 2018 gave me an opportunity to grow my makeup collection 😁 No, seriously, most of my makeup and skincare stuff got expired and emptied last year, some are about to finish this month. I resisted myself from buying unnecessary stuff though and did purchase only those products which I need at this moment (who am I kidding😜 ). Hence brace yourselves because this post is going to be a lengthy one as I did shop a lot this time. So without any delay let’s jump into the haul!

PRODUCT EMPTIES – PART 1

A few months back on completion of my 100^th blog post, I asked my husband to check out my blog because he doesn’t follow NBAM that often! To be honest, his opinion matters to me as it was his support and guidance, I could start this blog two years back 😊. But after going through all the posts and the website design, all he noticed was- my shopping hauls blog posts!! He literally started counting how much I spent on those products and asked me – honey, do you ever finish these products or you just keep buying things?? I got angry, but then realized that it’s not his fault. Once a product gets emptied, I throw it right away without storing the container or taking its picture hence no proof! Since then, I have been collecting all the used empty product containers as evidence as well as to start this series called ‘Product Empties’ on my blog inspired by my fellow lovely bloggers.

Destination: Macau || Best things to do and see in Macao || Day 3

This post is in continuation to my previous Macau travelogue (day 1 & 2)…

Travelogue: Destination Macau, Day 3

To celebrate our last day in Macau, Mr Husband and I considered starting with ‘Historic Centre of Macao’ Trail that covers maximum UNESCO listed World’s Heritage Sites on Macau Peninsula. But as it was early morning, we chose to stop over this beautiful classic garden to rejuvenate ourselves.

Destination - MACAU, Day 2

On our second day in Macau, it was raining like cats and dogs since the previous night. By no means could we let rain be a spoilsport there, hence got ready and moved out to finish our 2nd-day itinerary goals. We planned to explore basically the islands on the south of the main peninsula, namely Taipa & Coloane on that day but started with the closest tourist spot first. 

My Wedding Anniversary Look || What I wore - OOTD

Everyone wants to look extremely good on their wedding anniversary party and why not, it’s their special day after all! And to celebrate this precious event, my husband and I decided to complement each other by wearing the classic red & black colour outfits 😊.

My Top Favourite Fashionable Apparels For The Summer

On the eve of New Year 2017, I promised (aka resolution) myself that I will write more fashion and makeup related posts on my blog. But till date, I haven’t posted any of such except some OOTD posts. So to keep my words, today, I will be sharing some of my summer must-have outfits with you all here.

What I wore in Macau (Outfit details) + My Travel Backpack Essentials

Do you know why I am fond of travelling? It is simply because travelling broadens our knowledge, opens our mindset and makes us feel alive! With each passing day, I am constantly learning about how to travel light yet fashionably, by either reading & seeing other travel fashionistas or through my own personal experiences. So far so good, I am super happy with the results 😊

Travelogue: A trip to the Las Vegas Of East- MACAU (Day1)

The year 2017 started on a good note but my husband and I couldn’t celebrate the New Year together. So when we got that chance to celebrate Lunar New Year here in Hong Kong, we couldn’t afford to miss it! Reasons were, of course, long weekends plus celebrating again a New Year (if that makes any sense, lol) 😜 Taiwan, Vietnam all these places came into my mind but Mr. husband had planned for something different already and made sure that I would not miss any entertainment either. Hurray😍

Take Care: Jewellery

ATTENTION!!!

To

All the jewellery lovers,

With due respect and humble submission, I Anamika Chattopadhyaya, today, would like to talk about how you can keep your precious ornaments neat, clean and bright forever naturally, without burning a hole in your pocket!

Jewellery Care// Life Hack

Sorry for this formal AKA weird introduction 😛! We women always like to wear traditional as well as trendy jewellery pieces during festivals/occasions. But afterwards, we forget to take proper care and store them just in their respective pouches or boxes. As a result, the jewellery pieces start to lose their charm and shine eventually, and they look dull and rusty. To regain that glow and beauty of your precious ornaments, follow these below mentioned simple jewellery care tips. 

Beauty Tips/Hacks Series...

#Beauty Tips 12-

Hello everyone,

Today I am here to share another easy pissy beauty hack with you all. This hack is all about how to make your nail polish last longer!

You just require apple cider vinegar/white vinegar to do this DIY. The acids present in the vinegar do the trick here!

Take a cotton ball and soak it in the vinegar. Then rub over your nails and let the nails dry for about 5-10 minutes. Once they get dried naturally, apply nail polish as usual. Don’t get afraid of the vinegar smell as it would vanish soon :D So girls, try this hack and let me know if you have any other ideas!

Hope you find this tip useful.

See you soon.
