Know Your Skin with Galderma!

Everyone's skin is different and so each one of us needs to take care of it in our own unique way. However, most of us don't realize this and so we follow set routines and use products just by their name and usage which may not suit us. I am glad that companies like Galderma who have successful brands like Cetaphil and Biluma, have launched a new initiative and made this month the Skin Awareness Month. With this they aim to educate consumers to Know their Skin, and what one needs to keep it healthy and beautiful. Basically one needs to know the importance of the right selection of products depending on our skin type.

Communication skills, especially conversational skills, are important for a child's personal development and well-being. It helps them have conversations that help them make friends, be listened to, ask for what they need and develop strong relationships with others.

A Big Thank you on Ri(t)ch Styles 12th Blogversary!

I completed 12 beautiful years of my blogging journey yesterday. From 2009 to 2021 - it's been quite a ride! A journey which I started alone, but along the way these 2 joined me at different points, became a vital part of it all and have made it even more memorable. Aryaa definitely is the best business partner ever, and you will have to agree that the cutest business partner one can have. Prateek's support has undeniably a huge huge role to play. 

Making Learning Fun with Disney.BYJU'S Early Learn App

The last month has been one of the best months of my lockdown life. You ask why? Well because now, home schooling is a breeze for me, thanks to Disney.BYJU'S Early Learn app! I am so glad to have FINALLY found a solution that is helping me home school Aryaa in the best way possible and is also something that Aryaa is absolutely loving. So much so that her entire screen time is all about productive learning.

Committed to Care – Adapting community outreach during COVID times

My association with Nestlé’s Healthy Kids Programme dates back to 2016 and you all have seen me talk about the initiative since. They celebrated their tenth year anniversary last year, and I was happy to be a part of this commemoration. The Nestlé Healthy Kids Programme was started in 2009, to spread awareness on health and nutrition. In 2014, Nestlé partnered with the Magic Bus India Foundation with the aim to scale up their initiative.

Too Stylish, Too Soon?

If you notice these days, not only are adults super stylish, but our young ones are even more stylish. Now there is always a debate going on how much is too much and isn't it too soon to be so particular about their dressing? But I clearly think that as long as it is not over-priced and is pocket-friendly, I think it's all good. Looking dressed to the nine on a budget has always been my policy 90% of the time, and that is what I think matters as far as dressing up Aryaa goes as well. Looking good is important and so we do best what is in our capacity. Sometimes for special occasions it might be an exceptional case, but as long as you know that you are going to wear whatever you are buying more than once and can justify it to yourself, then go right ahead and make your kid wear it. The world will anyway have an opinion to give. So if you ask me - "Too Stylish, Too Soon?", I would say - "Nope! I like my child looking good and she loves to dress up too, and I am not breaking my bank doing it!" 😊

The Little Pink Dress!

We all have our favourite 'Little Black Dress' and I have a couple, but lately I have a favourite 'Little Pink Dress'. I bought it during my birthday shopping last year, but it has been the perfect dress for the Indian Summer that we are facing, and so most of you have seen me on Instagram wearing it quite regularly during the lockdown. I think the term 'LPD' would be just apt for it!

Mommy Humour that I can totally relate to! 🤭

The last couple of months in lockdown have been a total test of parenting for me. While it has been super tough, with a few ups and downs especially since there are no maids to help, I definitely would say that I haven't fared as badly as I thought I would in a situation as distressing as this. I know I have done and said some crazy things during this time, and so today in this post I’ve put together some of my favorite funny mom quotes that I have come across and completely related to, but in good humour. I am sure most of you are also going to relate to each one of these, and so I had to share them with you for you to have a good laugh too. 😊

Recipe: Quick Chocolate Cheese Balls

This blog post is all about a recipe that contains all that a child loves - chocolate and cheese! Today I am sharing with you a quick recipe for Chocolate Cheese Balls that are easy to make, eat and carry along anywhere. In fact making these can be a fun activity with your kids, just like it's one for Aryaa too. It's a great dish to indulge in the goodness of chocolate with a twist, and is loved by kids and adults. It also makes for the perfect lockdown snack.

Celebrating my Press Features this Month! 🥂

The last one month has been super special. While on the personal front it has meant a lot of quality family bonding time, on the work front too it has been phenomenal. I've had 4 press features and each one has been super special. In times like these when everything is at a low, and one has to keep motivating oneself to work harder, appreciation like these in the form of press features can really be a morale booster. So this weekend is all about celebrating these, but I also wanted to share the press features with you, and so this blog post is all about that. 😊

My Rekindled Love for Crop Tops!

Until a year ago, I was always on the fence about crop tops. I adored the trend but wasn't ready to embrace it because I always thought it's not for me. But how wrong was I! I was aware of all the styles in the market, the ways to wear them, and I knew all the styling tips too as far as a crop top was concerned, but never applied any of them for myself, till one day, a realization dawned upon me. 😀

6 Ways I am Adapting as a Content Creator during the Covid-19 Lockdown

As the Coronavirus a.k.a Covid-19 pandemic takes over the world, the lockdown has left a lot of content creators trying out different ways how to adjust to what is being thrown at us. Stepping out of the house is not a possibility nor is interaction with anyone other than immediate family members who we live with, and so for me too its been a time where trying to figure out how to continue churning out fresh yet relevant content has not been easy. However, I have kind of worked my way out and deduced what I think works best for me, given the situation and my increased home responsibilities. What I am really thankful about is that I am safe at home along with family, and so adapting and growing with a positive mindset is how I have to approach everything.

Recipe: Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jelly Cookie Sandwich

So today's blog post is all about a fun dish which I had come up with last year for Aryaa's school tiffin time. Aryaa loves peanut butter and strawberry jelly candy, and so using those along with cookies, I created the Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jelly Cookie Sandwich for her. Now during the lockdown too I have to keep making dishes that she likes especially for snack time, and I involve her in no fire cooking as well, so this is a quick and fun one which she loves to make and then eat too.

6 ways to Twin with your Daughters!

Let me be very honest! 😀 One of the main reasons why I always prayed to God that I should have a daughter was so that I could play dress up with her. I mean isn't it cute when mommies and their daughters dress up in matching outfits which we now call TWINNING? Not only is it fun, but it also makes for really good photo opportunities! 😉

Perfect Blue Summer Dress + Styling Tips!

After a white dress, I think nothing screams summer more than a pretty blue dress. I chanced upon a beautiful one which you see above during one of my sourcing sprees, and while it didn't fit my sourcing requirement then, it fit the bill for a beautiful blue summer dress that I always wanted to own and so I bought it that very instant. What made the buy even better was that it's made from pure cotton which makes it even more apt, cool and comfortable to wear for the hot hot weather that we face in the summers.
