Catwalk Orange Peeptoes from Jabong

The shoe hoarder that I am, it's not surprising for anyone to hear from me every now and then that I AGAIN like a new pair of shoes or that I have AGAIN bought a new pair of shoes ;) Shoes are the one thing that I don't think twice before buying! :) So then the fact that I picked up a new pair of Catwalk Orange peeptoes from Jabong recently should not surprise anyone :P

I am a member of most shopping websites and most of my buys now a days are online. Jabong is one such website that I often shop from. I have been wanting a pair of Orange heels for a while but since it is such a tricky colour, it is imperative that the design has to really look nice. A few weeks back I spotted these awesome Orange peeptoe sling backs from Catwalk on Jabong and I knew that I had hit a jackpot! I loved them the minute I saw them, so its appropriate to say that it was love at first sight ;) What made the deal even better was that the original price of INR 1895 had been slashed down to INR 999 - Icing on the cake!

My New Hair Colour! :)

Well I finally coloured my hair right in time for my birthday this year! A nice chocolate shade from L’Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss hair colour range. Though I don't have any greys, I still love colouring my hair and have been doing so for the past 15 years. I'm not worried about any damage to my hair as I do take the required care as mentioned in my post here where I busted a lot of myths.

Normally I highlight my hair but this time I decided to try an even colour across my hair and you can see the fabulous results in the pics below! The chocolate shade looks lovely and uniform all over :)




Pros of using the Casting Crème Gloss 
  • It is a no ammonia hair colourant 
  • Gives your hair rich, visible tones and a stunning glossy shine
  • Enriched with Royal Jelly, a naturally occurring substance known for its rare nutritive and rejuvenating quality such that post colouring hair is left revitalized with a glossy shine
  • Its crème formula contains a special patented conditioning complex that helps protect the hair fibre inside and out for exceptionally soft voluptuous hair
  • It is easy to apply, takes just 20 minutes and comes in a do-it-yourself kit which saves unnecessary trips to the Salon
I highly recommend you to take the Say Yes To Colour pledge along with me and try the L’Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss . They have some really nice colours/shades which you can choose here depending upon your individuality and taste.

If you need any help, then send in your pictures to ritchstyles@gmail.com and I will help you choose a colour!

Happy Diwali!


Happy Diwali people!! Hope you had a fabulous, bright, sparkly and glittering one! :)

For those who don't know what Diwali is, Diwali is the 'Festival of lights' in India and involves the lighting of diyas i.e small clay lamps filled with oil to signify the triumph of good over evil in every Hindu household. PS and me lit oil lamps all over our house which looked sooooo pretty.

I stayed away from the fire crackers this year. The fire incident at Sivakasi(where there is a fire-cracker production factory) took away whatever little interest I had in burning the few I did over the last few years.

Deciding to wear a saree this year, I chose a pink one :) The sparkly effect was added by the silver blouse and pink shimmer slip I paired it with.


Pink Saree - Gift from Aunt (bought in Kolkatta)
Silver Blouse - Ri(t)ch Styles
Pink Shimmer Slip (worn under the saree) - Taken from another saree :)
Diamond Earrings - Myra

So how did you guys celebrate your Diwali? And what did you wear? I'm sure each one of you looked really pretty and handsome :)

A Wine trail by Four Seasons

Wine has lately become my most preferred drink, and catching up with friends over a glass of wine to unwind has been  my ideal way to de-stress. Also, sipping on wine along with my meals is something that I enjoy and have developed quite a liking for. What intrigues me a lot is the pairing of food with wine which I think is more of an art than science. So when an invite for the Four Seasons Wine Trail at Veda came to me, the thought of understanding the pairing of wine and food together to enhance a dining experience tempted me to say YES and I am glad I did! :)

Awesome wine, fabulously delicious food and some great learnings from the best in the wine industry made the afternoon an unforgettable one. The ambience of Veda was totally Rohit Bal style - flamboyant, mystic yet blingy and totally in sync for the mood of the event.


Clive Castellino, our wine connoisseur took us through the afternoon keeping us intrigued with the process of wine making to how to store it, to the process of drinking it and how to pair it with food. The most important thing that he said is that food should be paired in such a way with wine that it should never overpower the taste of the wine and vice-versa.





We tasted 4 varieties of wine that afternoon which included the whites, reds and the roses. Sadly due to the migraine issue that I suffer from, reds are a strict no no for me but that still didn't stop me from just tickling my tongue with it for a brief moment ;)






We have always known more about how to pair Continental and European food with wine hence an afternoon learning how Indian food can be paired with wine was the highlight!

Next time you go wine drinking remember the 4S's i.e. See, Swirl(to open up the aroma), Smell, Sip(roll it in your mouth and then swallow) to drink wine the right way.

Thank you Four Seasons and Veda for the experience and I would also like to thank Akshay Gopal from Ginger Claps for the invite as it was a well spent afternoon learning new things and meeting new people! :)

It's Candy Time!



There are days when I crave for candy and then there are days that I crave to wear candy coloured outfits :) Today was one of those days when I was craving both. While I could satiate my candy craving with a bag of candy, how could I satisfy my candy coloured outfit craving when I was already out of the house for the day? Well what are lunch breaks for at work? :) There you go - I spent my lunch break with a sandwich in one hand and my mouse in the other creating my candy coloured outfit collages and more or else satisfying that craving as well :D Results were candylicious! I'm sure you will agree too ;)

Hippie in Candy Land!

Candy Colours!

I can't wait to try these combinations soon!! Sooo excited! Such brightness is surely gonna drive the winter blues away when I party indoors in outfits like these :)

It's also my birthday month so it definitely is Candy Time!!! :D
