Back to school

We went for a quick coffee at the Banyan Tree at Fort and landed up taking some fun shots. Here's what we wore.

Ain't no matter if you're black or white

Today, in the spirit of showing you guys more of Bombay, we went to Lion Gate and around. Everytime we passed the graffiti wall we thought of clicking pictures there. And today, we finally did thanks to our friend and colleague Asif Ansari.

Lion Gate is an old heritage building of the Naval Dockyard. Did you know that the Bombay Dockyard, has the country’s only heritage toilet. Located just inside the Bombay Castle, between the historic Bombay and Duncan docks, the fully operational lavatory has been in use since 1750, mostly by sailors who aren’t allowed to use their ship’s toilets when the vessels are in the harbour. They're open to visitors on the first Sunday of every month, if you wish to visit.

So here's what we wore today

Sonu wore a kurta over a dress to add shape and length.

 Jasleen wore a self-designed kurta and pants.

By the Pier

Keeping in sync with our blog's name, we thought of shooting serene locations of Bombay. Ballard Pier's quaint, not-so-crowded and beautiful buildings did the trick for us.
