Sweatshirts............

Our comfy, cozy, lazy weekend sweatshirt has been reborn as fashion's newest statement piece.  This new breed of high fashion sweatshirts are jewel encrusted, embroidered, satin backed and python patterned - made in unexpected and luxurious fabrics.

Sweatshirts are easy to wear and can be mixed into our wardrobes in a number of ways - which makes it the new staple.  It looks great over a shirt and under a jacket.  But, my favourite look for wearing the sweatshirt is to pair it with something feminine and flirty on the bottom - which makes it the perfect day-to-night look.   Love it - feeling comfortable and still looking pulled together.

The New Indian Farmhouse.............

Cross a French interior designer and India's leading haute couture client and the result is a neo-classical, British colonial style "farmhouse" in the countryside of Delhi, India - which is home to some of the region's most exclusive properties.   The house is situated on what use to be farmland and sits on a five-acre plot.  It is very grand, elaborate (complete with marble ceilings) and richly decorated and although I can appreciate the style of design, I prefer less ornate interiors.  However, I thought it was worth posting as I have seen it now in three separate magazines.
