Greetings Earthlings!

I welcome you all to yet another edition of HI5 mondays where I curate my life’s mundane and crazy! 😀 My week alternated between awesome and bomb diggity which should hopefully help sustain me through this week. Here’s what I accomplished(whew!)

1. Summer is finally here though – which means whites, sunnies, incessant grumbling about sweating and going crazy with your phone’s filters:P 2015-06-08 17.10.05

2. Ice cones with cloyingly sweet syrup? Sign meee upp!!IMG-20150606-WA00063. Since I already have a natural tan( :P) I do not need any more of that shiz! Slathering on the sunscreen without looking like a freshly used wok is hardddddd which is why I love this tinted matte version from Cotz! 🙂 4. I have no idea who has been asking time to fly around in a jet but around this time last year I was in India getting married! 😀 Also I had such looooonngg hair!! Pardon me while I drown my sorrows in a tub of yoghurt and sigh woefully at my lob!  IMG_1449-15. I am usually too lazy to make rotis/naan from scratch. I just buy them from the frozen aisle and do the heating routine!  But I see the appeal in making them fresh 🙂 Plus spilt flour is sooo much fun to clean up 😛 IMG-20150607-WA0000Hope all of you have a great week ahead! 😀 Smile away!

The blog turns 2 :D

Anniversary, Beauty, birthday, OOTD, top posts

Hello You’ll,

Somethings are hard to believe..  like monday being here already :P. Jokes apart I was actually referring to chasing yellow cabs turning 2!?!:) Feels like I just started this a while back! What started as a self test to really see if I could keep at maintaining a blog consistently is now a fun platform for me to meet & connect with new people, come up with reasonably entertaining content and of course reading some great blogs in the process! 🙂 I take this chance to thank all of my readers for their support and prat for giving me blogging ideas when I feel uninspired 😀While we are at it, I thought it would be apt to revisit my 5 top posts from the past year which wordpress tells me were the most read 😀 ( in case you missed them ;))

1. How I battled the bulge and won2. A guide to begin and feed your lipstick obsession3. Spring fling4. Weather gets hotter, hemlines get shorter5. Bauble Bar: Simply statement Have a wonderful weekend 😀 and thanks again for taking time to visit CYC 😀

Happy Birthday Chasing Yellow Cabs! :)

Anniversary, birthday, blogging, CYC

happybirthdayIt’s been a year since I wrote my first post on this blog! 🙂 How quickly time has flown since. When I first started out I had three concerns 1. What would I blog about ? 2. Would people like and find what I write interesting and lastly 3. Would I keep going at it consistently and not let my laziness/schedule take over me. A year has passed and  I am none-the-wiser about my concerns but I am certainly having a lot of fun while I am at it:)While the content and writing style of my posts may have evolved/changed over the year, the sheer excitement in getting a like/comment/compliment hasn’t been altered one bit 🙂 Truth be told, I never expected the reception CYC has received and am truly thankful that this blog presents an incredible opportunity to connect with fellow bloggers/readers and be inspired by their work… Thank you again for your support, encouragement and compliment. :D( Very kind) A special thank you to Prat for his input and help with all the photos. I do hope you continue to enjoy CYC and I would be more than happy to hear from you about upping my game 🙂 Happy Weekend

Of checks, dots and hearts! :)

Anniversary, brooklyn bridge, checks, Fall, gingham, love, personal style, polkadots, skirt

I seldom post pictures of my personal style for obvious reasons(yawn!) but I will have to make an exception this time for 4 reasons 🙂

1.  For the longest time I’ve wanted to wear checks and polka in the same look without feeling foolish and finally I did just that 🙂 Right?  *cue for applause* 2. It will probably be the last time I wear a skirt with bare legs for a while, what with the chilly weather creeping in on us and before long it will be “stockings” weather! 3. My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary under the bridges, over the water, taco in hand, smile intact 🙂 4. We ended up wearing matchy matchy (This never ever happens) clothes- blue gingham shirts and we were more than a little pleased about the coincidence 😉 and wanted to share it with you’ll 🙂Yaaayy… Weekend’s coming! Have a great one 😀
