Posted on July 3, 2013 by Sonali

Today was a day full of drama and action. All in all a good one over all but with so much drama, did not achieve what I wanted by the end of day.I wore a knit dress today in black and grey that I had bought recently with black stockings. I loved the pattern and…

Day 5 – 2nd July 2013

Posted on July 2, 2013 by Sonali

What a day! I had not envisioned that it will be this hectic and crazy when I woke up and dressed this morning. Like the past few days, I woke up at 350 am this morning – an ungodly hour by any standard. On top of that, Yash woke up on the wrong side of…

Day 4 – 1st July 2013

Posted on July 1, 2013 by Sonali

Today I wore a black and white tunic from Threadz with black tights and black t-shirt under the tunic. I really liked the dress pattern and thought will suit my body shape. Going by the compliments, my hunch was right, but you be the judge! The day was a usual Monday, busy, hectic and a…

Day 3

Posted on June 29, 2013 by Sonali

Day 3 was the CSPO training day. And it was pouring cats and dogs. I decided to wear red – love wearing colour in rain. So I took out my trusted red tunic (eBay buy) and wore it with black tights, black tshirt and black boots :-). The day was uneventful except I am now…

100 days of office wear

Posted on June 28, 2013 by Sonali

I am rekindling my blog after a few months and what a topic!  The whole 100 day trend really intrigues me, not the whole fad but the concept about consistency and being true about doing the same hing for 100 days. Once you can do one thing, you can follow the next for a period…

Posted on March 31, 2013 by Sonali

I was inspired to write this post after watching Ms Sandberg’s Ted talk. I am currently reading her book “Lean In” and as an advocate of equality in everything, am posting my thoughts. When I first joined the workforce, I was a young idealist who thought work will be similar to atmosphere at home where…

HDFC strikes again…….with their incompetence!

Posted on February 19, 2013 by Sonali

I had written an earlier post on the incompetence of one of the largest banks in India. Since then, I received a call from their regional manager assuring me that he will take care of my concerns and that I am a valuable customer. I thought may be I have been the light bulb moment…

The real “Spice Girl”

Posted on February 5, 2013 by Sonali

I do not usually watch reality TV shows but a chance comment by my friend Tony about My Kitchen Rule made me explore it. When I saw that there were two contestants of Indian origin, I was very excited. These girls will showcase the beauty of Indian culture and the delicacy of Indian food which…

Old friends……new connections

Posted on January 19, 2013 by Sonali

It was chance or persistence that I connected with my old friends Rachna and Leena. Thank you Facebook, you have some value! 15 years have since gone by. We have got married, have kids and are now settled in 3 different countries. Who would have thought? When we were young 18 year old, the thing…

HDFC Bank – we understand your world – NOT

Posted on January 3, 2013 by Sonali

This is my saga dealing with one of the biggest bank in India who have the above slogan as their tagline and profess customer service. I am writing this blog to humour you with my frustrating experience so that the world can understand why India is 25 years behind. 1. The woman employee was sugary…
