Ralph Miniatures
I was just gifted this set of Ralph Lauren miniatures featuring five of their classic best sellers.The tiny size offers a few benefits- easy to slip into your handbag, useful to 'test drive' a new perfume if you are unsure of a scent and also great if you like to vary your perfumes. It makes a good gift too, as who doesn't love miniatures in their lovely packaging, and is also a safe option as the variation of scents guarantee that the receiver will like at least one, if not a couple of the different perfumes.
I have used Ralph and Romance previously, at the ages of 17 and 23 respectively, and the scents evoke pleasant memories :) Of the five, loving Blue right now.

Sunglasses Collection
I love sunglasses and can't resist picking up new pairs most of the time. An inexpensive fix for this habit is InMark in Bangalore, which regularly stocks trendy designs. While I don't have a particular design preference, I generally like a larger frame. This is the refined collection, after having given away a bunch to friends which I wasn't using. My current favorite is the tortoise shell Mango pair.
Top: Yves Saint Laurent, First row: InMark, Second row: Ralph Lauren and Mango, Third Row: Armani and Esprit, Bottom two wooden frames: InMark (Bangalore)

Sale Shopping
Although I went to practically every store in Bangalore to check out the sales, I refrained from buying so many gorgeous but essentially useless things for my wardrobe and tried to stick to the basics. So what I ended up with were two basic tees in black and white from Promod (not pictured), a blue-grey skull printed stole from Zara and a wool gilet from InMark, perfect for the weather here which never gets too cold.
I also bought a lipstick from Clinique-while I'm not a huge makeup person, going bare faced is not acceptable in all situations so the lipstick was an effort at pulling my makeup act together. I like the shade as it looks slightly sheer when worn.
My strangest purchase were the ten (!) nail polishes from Faces. I don't know how I ended up with all these shades, considering my entire life I have used only a black or burgundy shade and I despise looking after my nails. However, I now meticulously apply a new color every second day and can't help but feel pleased every time I look down and catch sight of my colorful digits :) Don't know how long it will last though..
